[0002] A cold heading machine with cooling function is a cold heading equipment that integrates cooling technology. It is mainly used in the process of cold forming metal. The cold heading machine causes the metal material to undergo plastic deformation by high-speed impact and compression at room temperature. It is often used to produce parts such as bolts, rivets, and fasteners.
[0003] Traditional cold heading machines often require waiting for other stations to finish processing before continuing after each station completes its work, which prolongs the entire production cycle.
[0004] Secondly, if the mold fails to cool down in time during use, it may cause uneven material cooling, thus affecting the precision and quality of the final product.
[0005] Finally, if the cooling system cannot be replaced with coolant, more complex cleaning and repair procedures may be required, increasing the cost and complexity of equipment maintenance. Summary of the Invention

[0029] 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.
[0030] Example 1:
[0031] Please refer to Figures 1-5. A cold heading machine with a cooling function includes a main body 1, a running mechanism, and a heat dissipation assembly. The running mechanism includes a running plate 2, a hydraulic cylinder 3, a mold 4, and a mounting box 5. The running plate 2 is fixedly mounted on the main body 1, the hydraulic cylinder 3 is fixedly mounted in the running plate 2, the mold 4 is mounted in the mounting box 5 and connected to the mounting box 5, and the mounting box 5 is fixedly mounted on the main body 1. The heat dissipation assembly includes a connector 6, a cooling box 7, a water pump 8, a heat sink 9, and a fan 10. The connector 6 is mounted on the mold 4, the cooling box 7 is connected to the connector 6, the water pump 8 is fixedly mounted in the mounting box 5 and fixedly connected to the cooling box 7, the heat sink 9 is fixedly mounted on the cooling box 7 and fixedly connected to the connector 6, and the fan 10 is fixedly mounted on the mounting box 5.
[0032] In this embodiment, the operating mechanism includes a running plate 2, a hydraulic cylinder 3, a mold 4, and a mounting box 5. In use, the component can be placed on the main body 1 by a robotic arm. The hydraulic cylinder 3 on the running plate 2 is directly driven to squeeze the component into the mold 4. In use, the mold 4 is threadedly engaged with the external thread 11 on the mounting box 5 through the internal thread 12, so that the mold 4 can be fixed in the mounting box 5. At the same time, the mold 4 is connected to the inner wall 13 on the mounting box 5.
[0033] In this embodiment, during use, when the mold 4 experiences high temperatures, the water pump 8 operates, allowing coolant to circulate within the cooling tank 7. Simultaneously, the fan 10 mounted on the mounting box 5 operates, and outside air enters through the air inlet 24 on the mounting box 5. This allows air to circulate through the heat sink 25 in the heat sink 9, which is fixedly connected to the cooling tank 7, and the air is exhausted to the outside of the main body 1 by the fan 10. This dissipates heat from the heat sink 9, rapidly cooling the coolant in the cooling tank 7. Because of the flow through the flow hole of the connector 6, the heat dissipation rod 15 installed in the insertion hole 14 can dissipate heat from the mold 4 in time. Moreover, the coolant used needs to be replaced in time. At this time, the locking block 19 can be pulled directly so that the limiting plate 23 can slide in the limiting groove 22, thereby allowing the locking block 19 to slide on the cooling box 7 and disengage from the locking hole 18 on the fitting plate 17, so that the connection between the cooling box 7 and the connector 6 is disconnected, and the sealing gasket 21 also disengages from the fitting plate 17, completing the disassembly of the cooling box 7 from the connector 6. The same method is used during installation.
[0034] Example 2:
[0035] In summary, during use, the component can be placed onto the main body 1 by the robotic arm. The hydraulic cylinder 3 on the mounting plate 2 directly drives the component, pressing it into the mold 4. During use, the mold 4 engages with the external thread 11 on the mounting box 5 via its internal thread 12, thus fixing the mold 4 within the mounting box 5. Simultaneously, the mold 4 is connected to the inner wall 13 of the mounting box 5. However, when the mold 4 experiences high temperatures during use, the water pump 8 operates, allowing coolant to circulate in the cooling tank 7. Simultaneously, the fan 10 mounted on the mounting box 5 operates, while outside air enters through the air inlet 24 on the mounting box 5, allowing air to flow through the heat sink 25 in the heat sink 9, which is fixedly connected to the cooling tank 7. Air is vented through the fan 10 and exhausted to the outside of the main body 1, thereby dissipating the heat on the heat sink 9 and allowing the coolant in the cooling box 7 to cool down quickly. The cooling rod 15 installed in the insertion hole 14 can also dissipate heat from the mold 4 through the flow pipe 16 of the connector 6. Since the coolant needs to be replaced promptly, the locking block 19 can be pulled to allow the limiting plate 23 to slide in the limiting groove 22. This causes the locking block 19 to slide on the cooling box 7 and disengage from the locking hole 18 on the fitting plate 17, disconnecting the cooling box 7 from the connector 6. The sealing gasket 21 also disengages from the fitting plate 17, completing the disassembly of the cooling box 7 from the connector 6. The same procedure applies during installation.
[0036] Of all the solutions mentioned above, those involving the connection between two components can be selected according to the actual situation, such as welding, bolt and nut connection, bolt or screw connection, or other known connection methods, which will not be elaborated here. For all the fixed connections mentioned above, welding is preferred. Although embodiments of this utility model have been shown and described, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and variations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of this utility model. The scope of this utility model is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
