Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of injection mold technology, specifically to an injection mold for a camera bracket. Background Technology

[0002] Rearview mirrors are located on the left and right sides of the front of the car, as well as in the front of the interior. They are typically used to reflect the situation behind, to the sides, and below the vehicle, allowing the driver to indirectly see these areas. Therefore, rearview mirrors are important safety components in automobiles, and their mirror surface, shape, and operation are all carefully considered. With the rapid development of image and computer vision technologies, more and more technologies are being applied to automotive electronics to expand the driver's field of vision, thereby improving the ease of operation and other usability of the vehicle. Based on this demand, surround-view cameras, as active safety devices that improve the left and right front visibility of the car, are gradually becoming common features in automobiles. It is generally known that car cameras are typically installed between the camera housings on the vehicle.

[0003] In the prior art, there is a Chinese patent with authorization announcement number CN216101912U entitled "An Injection Mold for a Vehicle Camera and its Housing". The patent discloses an injection mold for a vehicle camera housing, including a concave mold, a water tank fixedly connected inside the concave mold, a pipe groove fixedly connected outside the water tank, an outer plate fixedly connected outside the pipe groove, a helical spring rotatably connected inside the outer plate, a connecting rod fixedly connected outside the helical spring, a slider fixedly connected outside the connecting rod, a slide groove slidably connected outside the slider, an outer frame fixedly connected outside the slide groove, and a slide rail fixedly connected inside the outer frame.

[0004] In the aforementioned patent, the movement of the slider eliminates resistance to the stop outside the cooling tank. The cooling tank then moves outside the slide rail under the influence of the spring, achieving rapid cooling and molding of the injection-molded liquid. Existing technologies, including the aforementioned patent, to some extent meet the needs of camera bracket injection molding. It is known that during the injection molding process of a camera bracket, liquid raw material is injected into the mold cavity through the injection port. After the material cools, it forms the workpiece while simultaneously creating sprue waste at the injection port. However, in existing technologies, this sprue waste forms an undercut between the workpiece and the mounting block, which affects demolding after injection molding, presenting a certain deficiency. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of this invention is to provide a camera bracket injection mold to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a camera bracket injection mold, comprising a mold body, wherein a first mold plate and a second mold plate are provided on the mold body, characterized in that: an mounting block is installed on the second mold plate, and a workpiece and a material rack integrally formed with the workpiece are injection molded on the mounting block; a vertical groove is opened on the mounting block, and a material handle is formed inside the vertical groove of the material rack, wherein the material handle is slidably connected to the vertical groove.

[0007] Furthermore, a connecting block is installed on the second mold plate, and the connecting block is equipped with an insert for forming the workpiece via a sliding member.

[0008] Furthermore, the sliding member includes a trapezoidal groove formed on the connecting block, and the insert is provided with a trapezoidal block, which is slidably connected in the trapezoidal groove.

[0009] Furthermore, the mounting block is provided with an inclined groove, and the insert is slidably connected to the mounting block through the inclined groove.

[0010] Furthermore, a power unit is provided between the first mold plate and the second mold plate.

[0011] Furthermore, the power unit includes a plurality of resin openers and closers installed between the first mold plate and the second mold plate.

[0012] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: When the workpiece needs to be demolded after injection molding, the mold body first opens to separate the fixed mold from the moving mold. When demolding is required after the mold opening stroke is completed, the insert needs to be separated from the workpiece. At this time, the first mold plate and the second mold plate are separated by the power unit, and the insert can be separated from the workpiece smoothly. Then, the subsequent ejector mechanism ejects the workpiece and the material rack. During this process, since the material rack slides vertically with the vertical groove, the material rack will not affect the demolding operation of the workpiece after the insert is released from its restriction. Therefore, it can greatly facilitate the demolding operation of the workpiece, without having to remove all the remaining inserts before demolding, resulting in better performance.
