Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of mold technology, specifically a two-color feeding one-time forming mold. Background Technology

[0002] In the footwear manufacturing industry, as consumers pursue more diverse product appearances, higher quality, and better value for money, the design and manufacturing processes of shoe soles face continuous challenges of innovation. Traditional shoe sole manufacturing processes often struggle to simultaneously meet the combined demands of complex structural appearance, good texture, and cost control.

[0003] Early shoe sole molds mostly used injection molding with a single material and color. While this method could ensure production efficiency to a certain extent, it had limitations in creating diverse appearances and achieving special product performance. For example, soles with a single color and material could not meet the market demand for two- or multi-color designs, making the products visually unappealing and lacking in uniqueness, making it difficult to stand out in a highly competitive market.

[0004] Furthermore, traditional mold structures typically require multiple processes when producing soles with complex patterns and three-dimensional structures. This not only makes the production process cumbersome but also easily leads to dimensional deviations and quality instability during repeated processing, resulting in increased scrap rates, higher production costs, and longer production cycles. At the same time, the lack of tight coordination and cooperation between the various processes significantly impacts overall production efficiency, making it difficult to meet the demands of large-scale production.

[0005] Moreover, for some consumers who pursue high-quality soles, soles manufactured using traditional methods are also lacking in terms of texture and elasticity. For example, the sole material may not be lightweight enough, putting a greater burden on the feet when worn; its elastic recovery ability is poor, and it is prone to deformation and loss of elasticity after prolonged use, affecting the comfort and lifespan of the shoes.

[0026] 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.

[0027] Please see Figure 1-9 This utility model provides a technical solution: a two-color feeding mold for one-time molding, a cold blank mold body and a feeding mold body, the cold blank mold body is used to make the base pattern in the form of injection cold blank, and the feeding mold body is used for secondary foaming molding.

[0028] The cold mold body includes, from top to bottom, a second lower mold body 9, a two-color upper mold 10 and a one-color upper mold 11, which are detachably arranged. The two-color upper mold 10 and the one-color upper mold 11 are set with a two-color structure and are used to combine the two-color structure of foaming to form the 3D three-dimensional shaping of the product.

[0029] The material feeding mold body includes an upper mold body 1, a lower mold body 2 at the bottom of the upper mold body 1, and an inner core insert 3 between the upper mold body 1 and the lower mold body 2.

[0030] In practice, at the start of production, the base pattern of the product is created using the cold blank mold body. The cold blank mold body consists of a second lower mold body 9, a two-color upper mold 10, and a single-color upper mold 11, which are detachably arranged from top to bottom. The two-color upper mold 10 and the single-color upper mold 11 are designed with a two-color structure. Raw material is injected into the cold blank mold body via injection, and the two-color structure of the two-color upper mold 10 and the single-color upper mold 11 allows for combined foaming within the mold. This combined foaming process achieves the initial construction of the product's 3D three-dimensional shape, forming a cold blank with a two-color base pattern. Simultaneously, the detachable structural design facilitates the replacement of mold components according to different product requirements, improving production flexibility. After the cold blank with the base pattern is created, it is transferred to the feeding mold body for secondary foaming molding. The feeding mold body includes an upper mold body 1, a lower mold body 2, and an inner core insert 3 positioned between the upper mold body 1 and the lower mold body 2. After placing the cold blank in the appropriate position, the mold is closed. The upper mold body 1 and the lower mold body 2 are closed, forming a sealed space for the inner core insert 3 and the cold blank inside. Subsequently, foaming material is injected, and secondary foaming is carried out under certain temperature and pressure conditions. The secondary foaming process further shapes the product.

[0031] See Figure 6 A lower mold middle plate 5 is provided between the upper mold body 1 and the lower mold body 2, and the lower mold middle plate 5 is located above the lower mold body 2.

[0032] In practical implementation, the lower mold plate 5 plays a crucial role in the filling process of the first material. Its surface structure and layout allow for further control over the flow direction of the first material, enabling it to be filled more precisely into specific areas. For example, it forms a uniformly thick and structurally stable base layer in different functional areas of the sole, such as the forefoot, heel, and arch. It also provides more precise control over the distribution of the first color on the sole, ensuring that the color layout meets design requirements and laying a solid foundation for the subsequent two-tone effect. The close cooperation between the upper mold body 1, the lower mold body 2, and the lower mold plate 5 not only effectively prevents material leakage but also ensures stable molding pressure, allowing the first material to be evenly filled into the corresponding parts of the cavity, forming the initial sole shape and color layout. During this process, the temperature and pressure of the mold are precisely controlled to ensure that the material flow and molding effect are at their optimal levels.

[0033] After the first material has been initially filled and shaped, the second color material is injected into the mold cavity through a separate feeding channel. Due to the presence of the lower mold plate 5, the second material flows along a pre-designed path, filling the remaining cavity space, building upon the first material. The lower mold plate 5 cleverly controls the fusion boundary between the two materials, allowing for a natural transition and fusion of the two colors in specific areas through its unique edge shape and surface texture, creating a unique two-tone effect and complex patterns.

[0034] See Figure 6 A middle plate partition 8 is provided between the upper mold body 1 and the lower mold body 2. The middle plate partition 8 is located between the upper mold middle plate 4 and the lower mold middle plate 5.

[0035] In practice, after the first material has completed its initial filling and molding, the second color material is injected into the mold cavity through a separate feeding channel. Due to the presence of the middle plate partition 8, the second material flows along a pre-designed path and fills the remaining cavity space based on the first material. The middle plate partition 8 can cleverly control the fusion boundary of the two materials by virtue of its special edge shape, flow guiding structure, and the gap formed between it and the upper mold middle plate 4 and the lower mold middle plate 5.

[0036] See Figure 4 Both the upper mold body 1 and the lower mold body 2 have a hinge on one side to fix their positions.

[0037] In practice, both the upper mold body 1 and the lower mold body 2 are equipped with a locking button on one side. These locking buttons play a crucial role in fixing the mold throughout its operation. When the mold is closed in preparation for material filling and molding, the locking buttons, through a mechanical locking mechanism, tightly fix the upper mold body 1 and the lower mold body 2 together, ensuring that the relative positions of the upper mold body 1, the lower mold body 2, and internal components such as the middle plate partition 8 and the lower mold middle plate 5 remain precise and unchanged.

[0038] refer to Figure 3 The inner core inlay 3 is made of stainless steel.

[0039] In practice, the inner core insert 3 utilizes the wear-resistant properties of stainless steel to extend its service life.

[0040] Working Principle: At the start of production, the base pattern of the product is created using the cold blank mold body. The cold blank mold body consists of a second lower mold body 9, a two-color upper mold 10, and a single-color upper mold 11, which are detachably arranged from top to bottom. The two-color upper mold 10 and the single-color upper mold 11 are designed with a two-color structure. Raw material is injected into the cold blank mold body via injection, and the two-color structure of the two-color upper mold 10 and the single-color upper mold 11 allows for combined foaming within the mold. This combined foaming process achieves the initial construction of the product's 3D three-dimensional shape, forming a cold blank with a two-color base pattern. Simultaneously, the detachable structural design facilitates the replacement of mold components according to different product requirements, improving production flexibility. After the cold blank with the base pattern is created, it is transferred to the feeding mold body for secondary foaming molding. The feeding mold body includes an upper mold body 1, a lower mold body 2, and an inner core insert 3 positioned between the upper mold body 1 and the lower mold body 2. After the cold blank is placed in the appropriate position, the mold is closed. The upper mold body 1 and the lower mold body 2 are closed, forming a sealed space for the inner core insert 3 and the cold blank inside. Subsequently, foaming material is injected, and secondary foaming is carried out under certain temperature and pressure conditions. The secondary foaming process further shapes the product.
