Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of mold technology, and in particular to a simple horizontal side-aligning slider mechanism. Background Technology
[0002] In recent years, with increasingly fierce competition in the automotive market, major automakers have focused their research and development on the body panels and related stamped parts, also known as molded components, of the vehicles themselves. The requirements for these components are becoming increasingly stringent, with increasing complexity and strength. Mold manufacturers are also facing this technical challenge. Process engineers design and layout the process steps based on these characteristics of the components, creating process documents and determining the mold size and number of steps for producing them. For some side-forming processes, wedges are generally used. However, when the side-forming space is limited, the mold length must be reduced to ensure surface accuracy and lower development costs.
[0003] Existing side-forming processes generally use wedges to complete the process, which takes up a lot of space and is costly when the side-forming space is small.
[0004] Therefore, we propose a simple horizontal side-aligning slider mechanism. Utility Model Content
[0005] To address the shortcomings of existing production technologies, the applicant provides a simplified horizontal lateral alignment slider mechanism. This mechanism involves fixing a pressure block to the lower template, mounting a drive block on the lower template, and mounting a guide block on the lower pad. The guide block provides guidance, and the drive block provides power to the slider. This simplifies the wedge structure, thereby reducing mold space, improving lateral alignment accuracy, lowering mold costs, and optimizing the mold structure.
[0006] The technical solution adopted in this utility model is as follows:
[0007] A simple horizontal side-aligning slider mechanism is used in a mold, which includes an upper mold base and a lower mold base. The horizontal side-aligning slider mechanism includes:
[0008] The stop plate and the stripper plate are fixed below the upper mold base, with the stripper plate located below the stop plate.
[0009] The top block is fixed in the stop plate and the stripper plate, and extends downward;
[0010] The window panel is fixed in the stripper plate;
[0011] The lower pad is fixed to the top of the lower mold base;
[0012] The lower template is fixed to the top of the lower pad.
[0013] The drive block and slider are set in the lower template;
[0014] The drive block is located below the top block and provides power for the movement of the slider. A guide block is provided in the lower pad to restrict the movement of the slider. A punch is provided at the top of the lower template, and the workpiece is placed on the punch. The drive block can be reset under the action of the elastic element.
[0015] Its further features are:
[0016] The lower mold base is equipped with an anti-side block at the top, which restricts the lower pad and the lower template.
[0017] A pressure block is provided at the top of the lower template to limit the movement of the drive block.
[0018] The elastic element of the drive block is disposed in the lower pad and the lower mold base, and the drive block is reset by means of the elastic element.
[0019] The upper mold base is provided with an upper pad at the bottom, and an upper clamping plate is provided at the bottom of the upper pad.
[0020] The stop plate and the stripper plate are fixed to the bottom of the upper clamping plate.
[0021] A balance block is provided at the bottom of the stripping plate.
[0022] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:
[0023] This utility model features a compact and reasonable structure, and is easy to operate. A guide block guides the slider, and a drive block provides driving force to the slider. The simplified wedge structure reduces mold space, improves side alignment accuracy, lowers mold costs, optimizes mold structure, and facilitates assembly by designers and fitters.
[0024] In addition, this utility model also has the following advantages:
[0025] (1) In one operation, there are four stages. The first stage is when the upper die is at its highest position, the lower die is set on the worktable of the punch press, the workpiece is placed on the punch, and when the upper die moves downward, the upper die drives the ejector block to move downward through the upper pad, upper clamping plate, stop plate and stripper plate until the ejector block contacts the drive block. The second stage is when the upper die continues to move downward, the ejector block applies a certain force to the drive block, causing the drive block to move downward. The third stage is when the upper die continues to move downward, the drive block drives the slider to move until the upper die moves to the lowest position, and the slider extrudes the workpiece to complete the work. The fourth stage is when the upper die begins to move upward, which in turn drives the ejector block to move upward. The drive block is reset under the action of the elastic element, and the drive block drives the slider to reset the upper die back to the highest position, completing the side-forming process.

The horizontal side-aligning slider mechanism is used in a mold, which includes an upper mold base 100 and a lower mold base 200.
[0032] The upper mold base 100 is positioned above the lower mold base 200.
[0033] The lower mold base 200 is provided with a lower pad 1700 on the top, and a guide block 1400 is provided in the lower pad 1700.
[0034] In one embodiment, the lower pad 1700 is fixedly connected to the lower mold base 200 by screws.
[0035] The upper mold base 100 is provided with an upper pad 300 at the bottom, and the upper pad 300 is provided with an upper clamping plate 400 at the bottom.
[0036] In one embodiment, the upper pad 300 and the upper clamping plate 400 are fixedly connected to the upper mold base 100 by screws.
[0037] The bottom of the upper clamping plate 400 is provided with a stop plate 500, the bottom of the stop plate 500 is provided with a stripper plate 600, and the bottom of the stripper plate 600 is provided with a balance block 1000.
[0038] In one embodiment, four balance blocks 1000 are provided, with two balance blocks 1000 spaced apart on one side of the bottom of the stripper plate 600, and two balance blocks 1000 spaced apart on both sides of the bottom of the stripper plate 600.
[0039] The stripper plate 600 is provided with a window plate 800, which extends downward.
[0040] The stop plate 500 and the stripper plate 600 are equipped with a counter block 700, and the lower template 1600 is equipped with a movable drive block 1200 and a slider 1300. The guide block 1400 is located below the slider 1300. The drive block 1200 is located below the counter block 700.
[0041] In one embodiment, the top block 700 is fixedly connected to the stop plate 500 and the stripper plate 600.
[0042] The drive block 1200 and the lower template 1600 form a set of sliding pairs, the slider 1300 and the drive block 1200 form a set of sliding pairs, and the slider 1300 and the guide block 1400 form a set of sliding pairs.
[0043] A pressure block 1100 is provided on the top of the lower template 1600. The pressure block 1100 limits the drive block 1200. The drive block 1200 can be reset by an elastic element. The slider 1300 can be reset as the drive block 1200 moves.
[0044] In one embodiment, the elastic element of the drive block 1200 is disposed in the lower pad 1700 and the lower mold base 200, and the drive block 1200 is reset by means of the elastic element.

[0046] When the upper mold base 100 moves downward, it drives the ejector block 700 downward via the upper pad 300, upper clamping plate 400, stop plate 500, and stripper plate 600. When the ejector block 700 contacts the drive block 1200, the drive block 1200 begins to move, and the slider 1300 begins to move along with the drive block 1200. The upper mold base 100 continues to move downward. When the upper mold base 100 reaches its lower limit, the slider 1300 completes its work. The upper mold base 100 then begins to move upward, which in turn drives the ejector block 700 upward. The slider 1300 and drive block 1200 reset under the action of the elastic element, completing one process.
[0047] The slider 1300 is guided by the guide block 1400, and the slider 1300 is driven by the drive block 1200. The simplified wedge structure can reduce mold space, improve the side alignment accuracy, reduce mold cost, optimize mold structure, and facilitate assembly by designers and fitters.

[0049] Second stage: The upper mold base 100 continues to move downward, and the top block 700 applies a certain force to the drive block 1200, causing the drive block 1200 to move downward.
[0050] Third stage: The upper mold base 100 continues to move downward, and the drive block 1200 drives the slider 1300 to move until the upper mold base 100 moves to the lowest point, and the slider 1300 extrudes the workpiece 1800 to complete the work.
[0051] Fourth stage: The upper mold 100 begins to move upward, which in turn drives the top block 700 to move upward. The drive block 1200 is reset under the action of the elastic element. The drive block 1200 drives the slider 1300 to reset the upper mold base 100 back to the highest position, completing the side adjustment process.
