Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of injection mold technology, specifically to a ball valve mold with eight cavities. Background Technology

[0002] A ball valve is a pipeline accessory used to switch pipelines on and off, control flow direction, and regulate and control the parameters of the conveyed medium. A ball valve is a valve in which the opening and closing element (ball) is driven by the valve stem and rotates around the axis of the ball valve. It can also be used for the regulation and control of fluids.

[0003] However, in the existing technology, ball valves, as a type of valve, have good sealing performance and are easy to open and close. With the rapid development of industrial level, the application range of ball valves is becoming more and more widespread. The ball valve body is usually processed by injection molding. However, the existing injection molding process has low production efficiency and low production quality, resulting in a coarse parting line. This leads to a large torque on the ball valve body after assembly, which affects its use. Utility Model Content

After production, the cylinder core is pulled out, and the product is demolded by the spring and demolding top in the moving mold. Eight products are produced by injection molding at one time. Demolding is rapid. After demolding, the cylinder core continues to extend. Then the mold is closed and the next production can be carried out. This effectively improves production efficiency. Moreover, the fixed mold, moving mold and molding mold are closely matched, and the guide post and inclined guide post ensure accurate positioning, which improves product quality.

The fixed mold 1 has a groove in the center of its lower part. The moving mold 2 is located below the fixed mold 1, and has a groove in the center of its upper part. The forming mold 3 is divided into an upper mold 31 and a lower mold 32, which are respectively located in the grooves of the fixed mold 1 and the moving mold 2. When the upper mold 31 and the lower mold 32 are closed, a forming cavity 33 is formed in the middle. The forming cavity 33 has two sets. Two rows of four cylinders are arranged in each group. The cylinder core-pulling assembly 4 includes a fixed frame 41, a cylinder 42, an ejector rod 43, a connecting plate 44, and a cylinder core 45. The fixed frame 41 is located on the outer middle of the fixed mold 1 and the moving mold 2. The cylinder 42 is located on the outer middle of the fixed frame 41. The ejector rod 43 is connected to the cylinder 42, and the connecting plate 44 is connected to the ejector rod 43. The cylinder core 45 is located on the connecting plate 44 and extends into the middle of the forming cavity 33 for forming the through hole of the ball valve. A set of molds has eight forming cavities 33. By setting up the cylinder core-pulling assembly 4, the cylinder core 45 is passed through the forming cavity 33 to form the through hole structure in the middle of the ball valve body. Before each injection molding, the cylinder core 45 extends into the forming cavity 33, the mold closes, and after molding, the cylinder core 45 is pulled out, and the product is ejected and demolded, which improves production efficiency.
