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.

[0024] Please see Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 4 In this embodiment of the present invention, a high-efficiency silicon-based microneedle mold includes a mold body 1. The mold body 1 consists of an upper template 4, a lower template 9, and a base 11. The upper template 4 is detachably installed on the upper side of the lower template 9. The upper template 4 and the lower template 9 are fixed together by a fixing mechanism 5. Ejection mechanisms 12 are installed on both sides of the lower template 9 below the upper template 4. A lower mold core 13 is provided inside the lower template 9. A telescopic mold core 14 is provided at the bottom end of the lower template 9. The telescopic mold core 14 extends into the lower mold core 13 and telescopically extends... The mold core 14 is installed on the upper side of the base 11. Multiple first springs 15 are evenly installed between the bottom end of the lower mold plate 9 and the base 11. A casting hole 2 is provided in the middle of the upper side of the upper mold plate 4. A vent hole 3 is installed on one side of the upper end of the upper mold plate 4. The casting hole 2 in the middle of the upper side of the upper mold plate 4 is used to inject liquid silicon-based material, so that it flows into the mold cavity formed by the upper and lower mold plates. The vent hole 3 on the upper side can discharge the air in the mold cavity, so as to avoid defects such as bubbles and holes in the molded silicon-based microneedles due to residual air, and ensure the molding quality of the microneedles.

[0025] A protective sleeve 10 is provided between the base 11 and the lower template 9. The protective sleeve 10 is attached to the bottom of the lower template 9 and the upper side of the base 11 with adhesive. The protective sleeve 10 is provided to protect the first spring 15, reduce the corrosion of the first spring 15 during use, and extend the service life of the first spring 15.

[0026] The fixing mechanism 5 consists of a groove 6, a threaded rod 7, and a nut 8. The threaded rod 7 is rotatably installed on both sides of the lower template 9, and the groove 6 is located on both sides of the upper template 4. The threaded rod 7 rotates into the groove 6, and the nut 8 is rotatably installed on the upper side of the threaded rod 7. When the mold is closed, the threaded rod 7 is rotated to enter the groove 6 of the upper template 4, and then the nut 8 is tightened. Through the cooperation of the threaded rod 7 and the nut 8, the upper template 4 and the lower template 9 are tightly fixed together, ensuring that the upper template 4 and the lower template 9 will not be relatively displaced during the pouring of liquid silicon-based material and subsequent molding processes, thus ensuring the molding accuracy of silicon-based microneedles.

[0027] The ejection mechanism 12 consists of a mounting groove 19, a second spring 17, and an ejector rod 18. The mounting groove 19 is located on both sides of the lower template 9. The bottom end of the ejector rod 18 extends into the mounting groove 19. The second spring 17 is installed inside the mounting groove 19 below the ejector rod 18. When the silicon-based microneedles are formed, the mold is opened. At this time, the second spring 17 recovers its elastic deformation and pushes the ejector rod 18 upward. The ejector rod 18 ejects the formed silicon-based microneedles from the lower template 9, making it easier to remove the product and improving production efficiency. A limiting plate 16 is set at the bottom end of the ejector rod 18 below the section inside the mounting groove 19. The limiting plate 16 is welded to the bottom end of the ejector rod 18. Its function is to prevent the ejector rod 18 from detaching from the mounting groove 19 under the action of the second spring 17, ensuring that the ejection mechanism 12 can operate stably and reliably. At the same time, it limits the movement stroke of the ejector rod 18 to avoid excessive ejection and damage to the mold or product.

[0028] The working principle and usage process of this utility model are as follows: During operation, the upper template 4 and the lower template 9 close together to form a complete molding space. The fixing mechanism 5 ensures that the position is stable after the mold is closed and prevents misalignment. After the material is formed, the upper template 4 and the lower template 9 are first separated by the ejection mechanism 12 to facilitate mold opening. After the mold is opened, when it is necessary to discharge the material, the lower template 9 can be pressed down. At this time, the first spring 15 will retract, so that the telescopic mold core 14 extends into the lower mold core 13, so that the material inside the lower mold core 13 is ejected, which facilitates the quick export of the formed material.

[0029] Finally, it should be noted that the above are merely preferred embodiments of this utility model and are not intended to limit the utility model. Although the utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art can still modify the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments or make equivalent substitutions for some of the technical features. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of this utility model should be included within the protection scope of this utility model.
