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.
[0023] Please see Figure 1-4 This utility model provides an embodiment: an injection mold structure for an umbrella-shaped product made of PP material, including a lower mold 1 and an upper mold 10. The upper mold 10 is provided on the right side of the lower mold 1. Cavities 7 are respectively provided inside the two ends of the right side of the lower mold 1. Hot runners 11 are respectively fixed inside the two ends of the right side of the upper mold 10. A main pipe 13 is provided on the right side of the upper mold 10, and a branch pipe 12 is fixed on the left side of the main pipe 13. Multiple sets of cavities 7 are provided inside the two ends of the right side of the lower mold 1. Guide rods 8 are respectively fixed at the four corners of the right side of the lower mold 1. Inner holes 9 are respectively provided inside the four corners of the left side of the upper mold 10. The guide rods 8 penetrate the interior of the inner holes 9. A controller 25 is provided at the bottom of the front end of the lower mold 1.
[0024] The hot runner 11 penetrates the interior of the upper mold 10. The left side of the branch pipe 12 is fixedly connected to the right side of the hot runner 11. Multiple sets of branch pipe 12 are provided at both ends of the left side of the main pipe 13. Multiple sets of hot runner 11 are provided at both ends of the right side of the inner hole 9. The top and bottom ends of the left side of the multiple sets of cavities 7 are respectively provided with mounting grooves 21, and heating strips 22 are fixed inside the mounting grooves 21. The top and bottom ends of the right side of the lower mold 1 are respectively provided with mounting cavities 24, and temperature sensors 23 are installed inside the mounting cavities 24.
[0025] Specifically, such as Figures 1-4As shown, the mold incorporates segmented injection technology. Each individual cavity 7 has two sets of hot runners 11, dividing the injection process into multiple stages. The injection speed and pressure are adjusted according to the filling requirements of different areas, ensuring uniform flow of PP material in the complex umbrella rib structure and avoiding defects such as bubbles and shrinkage. Multiple small runners are set inside the mold, especially in the details of the umbrella ribs, where a micro-runner design is adopted to ensure uniform flow of PP material in the complex cavity, avoiding poor flow or incomplete injection. At the same time, a precise hot runner 11 design is adopted, optimizing the distribution of the runners and making the hot runners 11 more refined, reducing the cooling time and temperature difference of the PP material, improving fluidity, and ensuring smooth filling of the umbrella rib-shaped product. By using local heating elements 22 at the umbrella rib connection points, it can be ensured that the material can be smoothly filled into the small parts of the mold, improving the molding accuracy of the product.
[0026] Cooling channel 16 is provided on the front end of the left side inside the lower mold 1. Liquid inlet 15 is fixed on the front end of the top of the lower mold 1. Liquid outlet 20 is fixed on the front end of the bottom of the lower mold 1. Cooling channel 28 is provided on the rear end of the left side inside the lower mold 1. Liquid inlet 27 is fixed on the rear end of the top of the lower mold 1. Liquid outlet 29 is fixed on the rear end of the bottom of the lower mold 1. Liquid inlet 15 and liquid outlet 20 are respectively connected to the interior of cooling channel 16. Liquid inlet 27 and liquid outlet 29 are respectively connected to the interior of cooling channel 28.
[0027] Specifically, such as Figures 1-4 As shown, in key areas of the umbrella-shaped product inside the mold, especially in areas with long runners or thin walls, more uniform cooling can be achieved by setting up multi-layer cooling channel inlets 17 and cooling runners 16. Precise control of the coolant flow rate can prevent uneven cooling and warping deformation, improving the stability of the molded product. The presence of a temperature sensor 23 and a temperature control module allows for precise temperature control of various areas of the mold. Real-time monitoring of the mold temperature prevents excessively high or low temperatures during cooling, thus avoiding poor material flow and reducing warping and shrinkage of the product.
[0028] A mounting bracket 2 is fixedly installed on the left side of the lower mold 1, and a connecting plate 4 is provided on the left side inside the mounting bracket 2. A cylinder 2 5 is fixedly installed on the top of the left side of the mounting bracket 2, and a cylinder 3 is fixedly installed on the bottom of the left side of the mounting bracket 2. Ejector pins 6 are fixed at both ends of the right side of the connecting plate 4. An ejection hole 14 is opened inside the left side of the cavity 7. The output ends of the cylinder 3 and cylinder 2 5 on the right side pass through the inside of the left side of the mounting bracket 2 and are fixedly connected to the left side of the connecting plate 4. Multiple sets of ejector pins 6 are provided at both ends of the right side of the connecting plate 4. The right side of the ejector pin 6 passes through the inside of the ejection hole 14.
[0029] Specifically, such as Figures 1-4As shown, multiple ejector pins 6 are set inside the mold to evenly eject the molded umbrella rib products from the mold, avoiding product deformation or damage caused by uneven ejection. The pneumatic ejection method using cylinder 3 and cylinder 5 can reduce the ejection force and avoid product deformation caused by excessive ejection force.
[0030] Working principle: When in use, this utility model uses segmented injection technology, with two sets of hot runners 11 in each individual cavity 7. The injection speed and pressure can be adjusted according to the filling requirements of different areas to inject PP material into the cavity 7. This ensures the uniform flow of PP material in the complex umbrella rib structure. At the same time, the precise hot runner 11 design optimizes the distribution of the runners, making the hot runners 11 more refined and ensuring the smooth filling of umbrella rib-shaped products. By using local heating elements 22 at the umbrella rib connection points, it can be ensured that the material can be smoothly filled into the small parts of the mold.
[0031] Meanwhile, in key areas of the umbrella-shaped product inside the mold, especially in areas with long flow channels or thin walls, more uniform cooling can be achieved by setting up multi-layer cooling channel inlets 2 17 and cooling flow channels 16. By incorporating temperature sensors 23 and employing a temperature control module, precise temperature control can be achieved in all areas of the mold. Real-time monitoring of the mold temperature prevents material flow obstruction caused by excessively high or low temperatures during the cooling process.
[0032] After the umbrella-shaped product is cooled and formed, multiple ejector pins 6 are set inside the mold to evenly eject the formed umbrella-shaped product from the mold, which can avoid product deformation or damage caused by uneven ejection. At the same time, the internal flow channel, gate and ejection part of the mold are made of hardened steel high wear-resistant material, ensuring the high durability of the mold in long-term use.

Thus, it is intended that all variations falling within the meaning and scope of equivalents of the claims be included within this invention. No reference numerals in the claims should be construed as limiting the scope of the claims.
