Example
[0029] This embodiment provides a composite mold 100 for a spring clip 200, referring to... Figure 2 As shown, it includes an upper mold assembly 110 and a lower mold assembly 120.
[0030] Among them, such as Figure 3 and Figure 4As shown, the upper die assembly 110 includes a die cavity 111, a pusher plate 112, and a punch 113. The top of the die cavity 111 is recessed with a mounting groove 1111, and the bottom wall of the mounting groove 1111 is provided with a cavity 1112. The shape of the cavity 1112 matches the shape of the spring clip 200 and extends through the bottom wall of the mounting groove 1111. The pusher plate 112 includes a mounting block 1121 that matches the mounting groove 1111. The mounting block 1121 is slidably embedded in the mounting groove 1111, and the bottom of the mounting block 1121 is convex with a pusher. The ejector block 1122 is shaped to match the cavity 1112 and is slidably embedded within the cavity 1112. A first mating hole 1123 is provided in the center of the ejector block 1122, penetrating the ejector block 1122, and the punch 113 is slidably embedded within the mating hole. The lower die assembly 120 includes a punch and die 121, the shape of which matches the cavity 1112 and can be inserted into the cavity 1112. A second mating hole 1211 is recessed downwards at the top of the punch and die 121 for mating with the punch 113. During die closing, the lower edge of the punch 113 is lower than the bottom surface of the die 111 and will preferentially contact the metal sheet. Utilizing the shearing force between the punch 113 and the second mating hole 1211 on the punch and die 121, a hole is created in the center of the metal sheet. Secondly, as the upper mold assembly 110 continues to press down, the bottom surface of the die 111 contacts the metal sheet, and the punch and die push the metal sheet into the cavity 1112. Using the shearing force between the die 111 and the punch and die 121, the edge of the part is trimmed, and the formed part is kept in the cavity 1112.
[0031] Furthermore, the diameter of the punch 113 is approximately equal to the inner diameter of the second mating hole 1211, thereby ensuring the machining accuracy of the punching.
[0032] like Figure 3 and Figure 5 As shown, the thickness of the mounting block 1121 is less than the depth of the mounting groove 1111. When the part is squeezed into the cavity 1112, it pushes the mounting block 1121 upward until the top surface of the mounting block 1121 is flush with the top surface of the die 111. The difference between the thickness of the mounting block 1121 and the depth of the mounting groove 1111 is less than the thickness of the pusher block 1122. This design ensures that the pusher block 1122 always slides within the cavity 1112, preventing the part from entering the mounting groove 1111 and causing jamming.
[0033] Furthermore, the upper mold assembly 110 also includes an upper template 114, a mold handle 115, an ejector pin 1151, an upper pad 116, and an upper fixing plate 117. The upper template 114 and the mold handle 115 are coaxially arranged. The upper pad 116 and the upper fixing plate 117 are sequentially arranged at the bottom of the upper template 114. The upper template 114, the upper pad 116, and the upper fixing plate 117 are connected by threaded parts. The mold handle 115 and the upper pad 116 are spaced apart, forming a cavity 118 between the mold handle 115 and the upper pad 116. The ejector pin 1151 passes through the mold handle 115 along the axial direction of the mold handle 115. An ejector plate 1152 is provided at the bottom of the ejector pin 1151. An ejector pin 1153 is provided at the bottom of the ejector plate 1152. The ejector pin 1153 passes through the upper pad 116 and the upper fixing plate 117 in sequence and is connected to the push plate 112. The push rod 1151 can move downward under the drive of the drive device, and the push plate 112 can be moved up and down by the push plate 1152 and the push pin 1153, so as to push the cut spring sheet out from the cavity 1112.
[0034] like Figure 3 and Figure 5 As shown, the die 111 is located at the bottom of the upper fixed plate 117 and is connected to the upper fixed plate 117 via a threaded connection. A disc-shaped limiting block 1131 is provided on the top of the punch 113, and a limiting groove matching the limiting block 1131 is provided on the top of the upper fixed plate 117. This structure allows for the detachable connection of the punch 113, facilitating maintenance and replacement.
[0035] Furthermore, such as Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, the lower mold assembly 120 also includes a lower template 122, and the punch and die 121 are connected to the lower template 122 via threaded connections. The lower mold assembly 120 also includes a lower fixing plate 123, which surrounds the punch and die 121 and is connected to the lower template 122 via threaded connections. A stripper rubber ring 124 is provided on the top of the lower fixing plate 123, and the stripper rubber ring 124 surrounds the punch and die 121. A stripper plate 125 is provided on the top of the stripper rubber ring 124, and a matching groove 1251 matching the punch and die 121 is provided in the middle of the stripper plate 125. The bottom surface of the stripper plate 125 is not higher than the top surface of the punch and die 121. When the die 111 is pressed down, the stripper rubber ring 124 is compressed, and the stripper plate 125 continuously applies pressure to the metal sheet under the action of the rebound force, which plays a role in fixing it, and at the same time, a space for accommodating excess material is formed between the die 111 and the stripper plate 125.
[0036] The lower mold plate 122 has guide posts 126 arranged vertically, and the upper mold plate 114 has guide sleeves 119 that slide with the guide posts 126. The cooperation between the guide posts 126 and the guide sleeves 119 can ensure the accuracy of mold closing and improve the stamping quality.
[0037] In summary, this utility model embodiment provides a composite mold 100 for a spring clip 200, which includes an upper mold assembly 110 and a lower mold assembly 120. The upper mold assembly 110 includes a die cavity 111, a pusher plate 112, and a punch 113. The top of the die cavity 111 is recessed with a mounting groove 1111, and the bottom wall of the mounting groove 1111 is provided with a cavity 1112. The shape of the cavity 1112 matches the shape of the spring clip 200 and penetrates the bottom wall of the mounting groove 1111. The pusher plate 112 includes a mounting block 1121 that matches the mounting groove 1111, and the mounting block 1121 slides. The mounting block 1121, embedded in the mounting groove 1111, has a downwardly protruding pusher block 1122 at its bottom. The shape of the pusher block 1122 matches the cavity 1112 and is slidably embedded within it. A first mating hole 1123 is provided in the middle of the pusher block 1122, penetrating through it, and the punch 113 is slidably embedded within the mating hole. The lower die assembly 120 includes a punch and die 121 whose shape matches the cavity 1112 and can be inserted into it. The top of the punch and die 121 has a downwardly recessed second mating hole 1211 for mating with the punch 113. This composite mold 100 can stamp the spring clip 200 in one operation and complete the opening in the middle of the spring clip 200, thereby improving processing efficiency.
[0038] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of this utility model and is not intended to limit the utility model. Various modifications and variations can be made to this utility model by those skilled in the art. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of this utility model should be included within the protection scope of this utility model.
