Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of powder metallurgy technology, and more specifically, to a shaping mold for powder metallurgy products. Background Technology

[0002] Powder metallurgy is a process technology that uses forming and sintering processes to create materials and products from metal powders or mixtures of metal and non-metal powders. It is suitable for producing porous self-lubricating bearings in refrigerator compressors, washing machines, and electric fans, as well as complex-shaped gears and magnets in household air conditioner exhaust fans and vacuum cleaners.

[0003] During production, powdered materials need to be pressed into shape. Existing forming equipment, when shaping toothed shafts, results in a high degree of fit between the pressed tooth edges and the mold. Since the finished product is not sintered, it is relatively fragile, and direct demolding can easily damage the tooth edges, affecting the quality of the finished product. Therefore, we propose a forming mold for powder metallurgy products. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this utility model is to overcome the shortcomings of the existing technology, adapt to the needs of reality, and provide a shaping mold for powder metallurgy products to solve the technical problem that direct die casting shaping causes inconvenience in subsequent demolding operations.

[0005] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a forming mold for powder metallurgy products, comprising an upper mold mechanism, a lower mold cylinder, a base plate, and a forming material. A central column is fixed at the middle of the upper end face of the base plate. The lower mold cylinder is installed on the base plate. The upper mold mechanism is installed at the upper opening of the lower mold cylinder. A stamping mechanism is provided on the lower side of the upper mold mechanism and is located inside the lower mold cylinder. An inner mold sleeve is sleeved on the inner side of the lower mold cylinder. Cutting grooves are arranged in a ring array on the inner side of the inner mold sleeve. The forming material is located inside the inner mold sleeve of the lower mold cylinder.

[0006] In use, this invention involves filling the inner mold sleeve of the lower mold cylinder with metal powder, the powder height being lower than the height of the central column. Then, the upper mold mechanism and lower mold cylinder are closed. During the mold closing process, the lower cutting blade is inserted into the powder, simultaneously cutting and separating the outer powder into the cutting groove of the inner mold sleeve. When mold closing is complete, the extrusion column presses the powder in the cutting groove to compact it. An external stamping device impacts the top of the stamping column, causing the stamping column to drive the stamping die downwards to extrude the powder. Through the above operations, the metal powder is shaped and pressed into a bushing structure with an external toothed structure. The cutting blade, in conjunction with the cutting groove, cuts and retains the powder within the outer toothed structure, facilitating the die-casting of the toothed structure. Simultaneously, ensure that the toothed groove structure does not stick to the mold and cause damage during demolding. After processing, separate the upper mold mechanism. At this time, the cutting piece is pulled out, and the cut scrap is pressed and left inside the cutting groove. Then, manually remove the lower mold cylinder and the base plate, flip the lower mold cylinder and clamp it onto the storage container. Then, pull out the central column connected to the base plate upwards, so that the central column separates from the inner hole of the molding material. Then, lift the lower mold cylinder upwards, so that the molding material separates from the inner mold sleeve and stays on the container. Finally, hold the outer side of the inner mold sleeve and lift it upwards to separate it, thus completing the final demolding. Manually clean the scrap inside the cutting groove of the inner mold sleeve. Through the convenient combination structure design, demolding is convenient and avoids damage to the overall finished product caused by adhesion, ensuring production quality.

[0007] Preferably, a lower pressure sleeve is embedded in the middle of the bottom end of the lower mold cylinder, and the central column passes through the interior of the lower pressure sleeve and is located inside the lower mold cylinder.

[0008] Preferably, the upper mold mechanism consists of an upper cover and cutting pieces. The upper cover has a central hole in the middle, and springs are fixed in the recesses on the lower end face of the upper cover. Cutting pieces are fixed in a ring array on the outer side of the lower end face of the upper cover, and extrusion columns are fixed at the top of the cutting pieces.

[0009] Preferably, the stamping mechanism consists of a stamping die and a stamping column. The outer side of the stamping die is provided with a side groove in an annular array. The side groove is adapted to the cutting piece. An upper pressure sleeve is fixed at the middle of the lower end face of the stamping die, and a column opening is provided at the lower end of the upper pressure sleeve.

[0010] Preferably, the stamping column passes through the central hole, and the lower end of the spring is fixed to the upper side of the stamping die.

[0011] Preferably, the molding material has an inner hole in the middle, and the upper and lower openings of the inner hole are provided with fitting grooves, and the outer side of the molding material has grooves arranged in a ring array.

[0012] Preferably, the inner hole is connected to the central column, and the upper end of the central column is connected to the column opening, the lower pressure sleeve and the upper pressure sleeve are connected to the adapter groove, and the cut piece is connected to the groove.

[0013] Preferably, the cutting piece has an arc structure design, and the cutting piece and the cutting groove form a cylindrical cavity, and the extrusion column is adapted to the cylindrical cavity.

[0014] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0015] 1. This utility model designs a cutting blade to fill metal powder into the inner mold sleeve of the lower mold cylinder. The height of the powder is lower than the height of the central column. Then, the upper mold mechanism and the lower mold cylinder are closed. During the mold closing process, the cutting blade on the lower side is inserted into the powder. At the same time, the cutting blade cuts the powder on the outside and separates it into the cutting groove of the inner mold sleeve. When the mold closing is completed, the extrusion column squeezes the powder in the cutting groove to compress it. The top of the stamping column is impacted by the external stamping device, causing the stamping column to drive the stamping die to descend and squeeze the powder. Through the above operation, the metal powder is shaped and pressed into a bushing structure with a toothed structure on the outside. The cutting blade and the cutting groove cooperate to cut and retain the powder in the toothed structure on the outside, which facilitates the die casting of the toothed structure. At the same time, it ensures that the toothed structure sticks to the mold and causes damage during the demolding process.

[0016] 2. This utility model also incorporates an inner mold sleeve design. After processing, the upper mold mechanism is separated, and the cut piece is removed. The cut scrap is then pressed and left inside the cutting groove. The lower mold cylinder and base plate are then manually removed, and the lower mold cylinder is flipped and clamped onto the storage container. The central column connected to the base plate is then pulled upwards, separating it from the inner hole of the molding material. The lower mold cylinder is then lifted upwards, allowing the molding material to detach from the inner mold sleeve and remain on the container. Finally, the outer side of the inner mold sleeve is lifted upwards to separate it, completing the final demolding. The scrap inside the cutting groove of the inner mold sleeve can then be manually cleaned. This convenient modular design facilitates demolding, avoids damage to the molding material of the finished product caused by adhesion, and ensures production quality. Attached Figure Description

An external stamping device strikes the protruding part of the stamping column 405, causing the stamping die 401 to descend. The spring 104 rebounds, causing the stamping die 401 to return to its original position. Side grooves 403 are formed in a circular array on the outer side of the stamping die 401. The side grooves 403 are adapted to the cutting piece 103. An upper pressure sleeve 402 is fixed at the middle of the lower end face of the stamping die 401. The lower end of the pressure sleeve 402 has a column opening 404. The inner mold sleeve 6 is sleeved inside the lower mold cylinder 2. The inner side of the inner mold sleeve 6 has a ring array of cutting grooves 8. The molding material 5 is located inside the inner mold sleeve 6 of the lower mold cylinder 2. The middle of the molding material 5 has an inner hole 503, and the upper and lower openings of the inner hole 503 have matching grooves 502.
