Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of plastic molding die technology, specifically to a submerged gate mechanism for a die. Background Technology
[0002] In plastic molding processes, the design of the gate plays a crucial role in the molding quality of plastic parts. Traditional gate types, such as direct gates, point gates, and side gates, have many shortcomings. Direct gates leave obvious marks on the front of the product, affecting its appearance. Point gates are suitable for small products and multi-point injection, but require high manufacturing precision. Although side gates are set on the side or slope of the mold parting surface, they usually require a long runner on the product, increasing post-processing steps. Therefore, developing a submerged gate mechanism for molds is particularly important.
[0003] Referring to the CN204136343U specification, a submerged gate mechanism for a mold includes a first and second template that cooperate to form a mold cavity, a submerged gate communicating with the mold cavity, a runner passing through the first template, one end of which communicates with the submerged gate and the other end of which communicates with the mold inlet, a runner ejector pin passing through the second template below the submerged gate, one end of which connects to the submerged gate and the other end of which connects to the runner ejector pin base plate, and a product ejector pin passing through the second template below the product inside the mold cavity, one end of which connects to the product and the other end of which connects to the product. The end is connected to the product ejector base plate, and the runner ejector base plate is set below the product ejector base plate. The runner ejector base plate and the product ejector base plate are spaced apart by a distance L, which is not less than 5 mm. At least part of the projection of the runner ejector base plate on the product ejector base plate falls on the product ejector base plate. As can be seen from the above, although this gate mechanism can be well applied, it is usually not convenient to shield and protect the mold inlet. This makes it easy for external particulate matter to enter the runner and cavity through the mold inlet, causing pollution, which often troubles people. Utility Model Content

[0014] (3) By tightening the locking bolt, the bottom end of the locking bolt is screwed out to the outside of the upper template. Then, the pouring mold head is pulled upward to remove the pouring pipe to the outside of the upper template, so as to disassemble the pouring pipe and the pouring mold head, thereby improving the convenience of maintenance of the pouring mechanism.
