[0015] (III) Beneficial Effects
[0016] Compared with the prior art, this utility model provides an auxiliary mold for molding insulating nano-ceramic composite materials, which has the following beneficial effects:
[0017] This insulating nano-ceramic composite material molding auxiliary mold, through a servo motor-driven threaded rod (linear movement device), an electric telescopic rod (telescopic device), and a cylinder (lifting device), can achieve very high position repeatability and positioning accuracy. This ensures that the positioning of the clamping device can be completed accurately every time.

[0025] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0026] Please see Figure 1-4An auxiliary mold for molding insulating nano-ceramic composite materials includes a base 1, support rods 2, a top seat 3, a hydraulic cylinder 4, a lifting plate 5, an upper mold 6, a lower mold 7, a molding cavity 8, an injection tube 9, a lifting device, a linear movement device, a telescopic device, and a clamping device. Support rods 2 are installed at each of the four corners of the top wall of the base 1. The top seat 3 is installed on the top wall of the support rods 2. The hydraulic cylinder 4 is installed on the top wall of the top seat 3. The bottom output end of the hydraulic cylinder 4 passes through the top wall of the top seat 3 and connects to the top wall of the lifting plate 5. The four corners of the lifting plate 5 are slidably connected to four sets of support rods 2. The upper mold 6 is installed on the bottom wall of the lifting plate 5. The lower mold 7 is installed on the top wall of the base 1. The upper mold 6 and the lower mold 7 each have a molding cavity 8. An injection tube 9, penetrating the molding cavity 8, is installed on the side wall of the lower mold 7. An adjustment frame 10 is installed at one end of the top wall of the base 1 via a lifting device. A telescopic device is installed inside the adjustment frame 10 via a linear movement device. A clamping device is installed at the output end of the telescopic device. A collection frame 11 is detachably installed on the front side wall of the base 1. In this embodiment, during use, pretreated nano-ceramic composite material is injected into the molding cavity 8 through the injection tube 9. At this time, the lifting plate 5 is in a high position, and the upper mold... 6. Move away from the lower mold 7 to provide space for material injection. Activate hydraulic cylinder 4 to slowly lower the lifting plate 5 along the support rod 2 until the upper mold 6 and lower mold 7 are completely closed and appropriate pressure is applied to ensure that the material is evenly distributed and shaped in the molding cavity 8. After curing, activate hydraulic cylinder 4 again to raise the lifting plate 5 and open the mold. The lower mold 7 is equipped with a demolding mechanism, namely an ejector pin demolding mechanism (the ejector pin demolding mechanism is a well-known technology in this field and will not be described in detail here). It can automatically eject the molded part after the upper mold 6 rises. After the part is ejected, the control system drives the adjusting frame 10 to rise to a height higher than the lower mold 7. Then, the linear motion device drives the telescopic device and the clamping device to move to one end near the lower mold 7. Then, the telescopic device drives the clamping device to extend to both ends of the part. The clamping device at the output end of the telescopic device clamps the part. Then, the linear motion device is controlled to move in the opposite direction to move the clamped part to the top of the collection frame 11. Then, the lifting device drives the adjusting frame 10 and the connected device and part to descend. Then, the clamped part is released, allowing the part to enter the collection frame 11 for collection, completing the removal of the part. Then, the above injection molding is repeated to achieve the auxiliary removal of the part after the insulating nano-ceramic composite material is formed.
[0027] Preferably, in this embodiment, the lifting device includes cylinders 12. Two sets of cylinders 12 are symmetrically installed on the top wall of the top seat 3. The top output ends of the two sets of cylinders 12 are fixedly connected to the top wall of the adjusting frame 10. The control system controls the supply of air to the cylinders 12. The air pressure pushes the piston rod to move downward or upward. As the cylinders 12 move, the adjusting frame 10 is driven to move up and down to raise or lower the clamping device to a suitable position. The adjusting frame 10 remains horizontal to ensure that the clamping device always moves stably in the vertical direction so as to accurately clamp or place the molded parts.
[0028] Preferably, in this embodiment, the linear motion device includes a threaded rod 13, a nut 14, and a first motor 15. The threaded rod 13 is rotatably installed inside the adjustment frame 10. One end of the threaded rod 13 passes through the side wall of the adjustment frame 10 and is fitted with the first motor 15. The nut 14 is threaded onto the threaded rod 13. The side wall of the nut 14 is connected to the lifting device. The first motor 15 is started by the control system, which drives the threaded rod 13 to rotate forward. The nut 14 slides backward along the threaded rod 13, approaching the lower mold. The lifting device and clamping device connected to the nut 14 move forward to the predetermined position, approaching the formed part. After the part is gripped, the first motor 15 rotates in the opposite direction, driving the threaded rod 13 to rotate in the opposite direction. The nut 14 moves backward, driving the clamping device back to its original position, reaching the designated position above the collection frame. The threaded drive has high repeatability and positioning accuracy, and can accurately send the clamping device to the gripping or releasing position.
[0029] Preferably, in this embodiment, the telescopic device includes an electric telescopic rod 16. The electric telescopic rod 16 is fixedly installed on the side wall of the nut 14. The clamping device is installed at the output end of the electric telescopic rod 16. When the control system issues a command, the electric telescopic rod 16 is energized and begins to extend. The output end drives the clamping device to move forward and approach the ceramic part in the molding cavity 8. When the clamping device reaches the predetermined position, it clamps the molded part. The electric telescopic rod 16 achieves precise stroke control through an encoder to ensure that the clamping device is accurately positioned. Compared with hydraulic or pneumatic systems, the electric telescopic rod 16 is small in size and light in weight, suitable for modular design, has fast start and stop response, and runs smoothly, making it suitable for automated production processes with repetitive actions.
[0030] Preferably, in this embodiment, the clamping device includes a fixing block 17, a groove 18, a bidirectional screw 19, a slider 20, a clamping plate 21, and a second motor 22. The fixing block 17 is installed at the output end of the electric telescopic rod 16. The groove 18 is formed on the side wall of the fixing block 17. The bidirectional screw 19 is rotatably installed in the groove 18. The second motor 22 is installed at one end of the bidirectional screw 19 through the side wall of the groove 18. The sliders 20 are threaded onto both ends of the bidirectional screw 19. The clamping plate 21 is fixedly installed on the side walls of the two sets of sliders 20. The control system starts the second motor 22 to drive the bidirectional screw 19 to rotate. The rotation of the bidirectional screw 19 drives the two sliders 20 to move towards each other. The sliders 20 drive the clamping plate 21 to retract synchronously, gradually approaching and contacting each other. When the clamping plate 21 is fully attached to the ceramic part, the control system can set a force feedback value or time threshold. Once the preset value is reached, the second motor 22 stops working, and the clamping action is completed. At this time, the ceramic part is firmly clamped and ready for the next handling or placement operation. When it is necessary to release the clamping of the molded part, the second motor 22 rotates in the opposite direction, the bidirectional screw 19 reverses accordingly, the slider 20 moves outward, the clamping plate 21 opens, the ceramic part is released, and the part falls into the collection box 11 below, completing one clamping cycle. The bidirectional screw 19 and the slider 20 achieve symmetrical clamping, and the clamping force is evenly distributed to avoid damage to the product due to bias. According to different sizes of products, the maximum stroke of the clamping plate 21 can be adjusted to adapt to various specifications of ceramic parts. The electric drive combined with the screw transmission ensures accurate positioning and rapid clamping action, which is suitable for high-frequency production needs.
[0031] Preferably, in this embodiment, both the first motor 15 and the second motor 22 are servo motors. Servo motors have a feedback system, i.e., an encoder, which can accurately know the position of their rotors. This means that they can provide very precise position control, which is very important for application scenarios that require positioning of molded parts, such as the clamping and releasing of parts in a mold.
[0032] Preferably, in this embodiment, V-grooves 23 are provided on the inner sidewalls of the corresponding ends of the two sets of clamping plates 21. The V-grooves 23 design increases the surface area in contact with the workpiece. Especially when the workpiece shape is irregular or the surface is smooth, the V-grooves 23 can provide additional friction to ensure more stable clamping. The V-grooves 23 can better adapt to workpieces with circular, cylindrical or other curved shapes because the design of the V-grooves 23 allows it to naturally conform to these shapes, thereby improving the versatility and applicability of the fixture.
[0033] Preferably, in this embodiment, two sets of T-shaped strips 24 are symmetrically installed on the back wall of the collection frame 11, and two sets of T-shaped grooves 25 are symmetrically opened on the front side wall of the base 1. The T-shaped strips 24 and the T-shaped grooves 25 are slidably connected. When the collection frame 11 is brought close to the base 1, the two sets of T-shaped strips 24 on the back wall of the collection frame 11 are aligned with the T-shaped grooves 25 on the front side wall of the base 1. The collection frame 11 is slowly pushed in, so that the T-shaped strips 24 slide in along the T-shaped grooves 25 until they are fully in place. Due to the design of the T-shaped structure, the collection frame 11 can be stably installed on the base 1. When it is necessary to clean or replace the collection frame 11, simply pull the collection frame 11 gently so that it slides out along the direction of the T-shaped grooves 25. Once the T-shaped strips 24 are completely detached from the T-shaped grooves 25, the collection frame 11 can be easily removed. The design of the T-shaped strips 24 and the T-shaped grooves 25 makes it possible to quickly and easily disassemble and assemble the collection frame 11 without the need for tools or other auxiliary equipment, which greatly saves time and labor.
