Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of glass partition technology, and relates to glass partitions for refrigerators, and in particular to a molding die for glass partitions for refrigerators. Background Technology

[0002] The glass shelves in a refrigerator are an important part of the refrigerator's interior, typically used to separate different storage spaces for better organization of food and beverages. With the rapid development of the home appliance industry, refrigerators have become an indispensable appliance in modern homes. The internal design and space utilization efficiency of a refrigerator directly affect its performance and user experience. As an important component inside the refrigerator, the glass shelves not only provide reasonable storage space but also play a key role in aesthetics and durability. Therefore, the molding process and mold design of the glass shelves are particularly important.

[0003] Traditional refrigerator glass partition molding molds require multiple bolts and nuts to ensure stability and accuracy during use, preventing movement or shaking. When different molds are needed for different models, these bolts and nuts must be removed, replaced, and then re-secured. This process is cumbersome, time-consuming, and inefficient. Furthermore, after injection molding and cooling, the finished glass partitions often adhere tightly to the inner wall of the mold, making removal difficult. Workers may need additional tools or force to pry them open, increasing operational risks and potentially damaging the finished product, thus increasing the scrap rate. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this utility model is to address the aforementioned problems in the existing technology by proposing a glass partition forming mold for refrigerators. The technical problem to be solved by this utility model is: how to achieve rapid replacement of the glass partition forming mold for refrigerators, and how to conveniently remove the finished glass partition from the mold.

[0005] The objective of this utility model can be achieved through the following technical solutions:

[0006] A glass partition molding mold for a refrigerator includes a mounting base. A U-shaped frame is provided on the top of the mounting base, and a first locking mechanism for engaging the U-shaped frame is also provided on the top of the mounting base. A U-shaped plate is fixed to the inner side wall of the U-shaped frame, and a bottom mold is provided on the top of the U-shaped plate. Lifting mechanisms for lifting the bottom mold are provided at both ends of the bottom of the U-shaped plate. A first U-shaped frame is fixed to the top of the mounting base, and a connecting plate is provided at the top of the first U-shaped frame. A mounting plate is provided at the bottom of the connecting plate, and a top mold is fixed at the middle of the bottom of the mounting plate. A second locking mechanism for engaging the mounting plate is provided on the top of the connecting plate. The top of the first U-shaped frame is equipped with a lifting mechanism for lifting the connecting plate. Through the design of the lifting mechanism, the bottom mold can be automatically lifted after the glass partition has cooled and formed, making it convenient for workers to quickly remove the formed glass partition without the need for additional tools or force to pry the finished product, thus reducing the scrap rate. When it is necessary to injection mold glass partitions of different specifications, the first and second snap-fit ​​mechanisms can be used to quickly disassemble and replace the U-shaped frame, bottom mold, rectangular block and mounting plate, rectangular base and top mold as a whole without the need for installation and fixing with bolts and nuts. The operation is simple, saves time and improves work efficiency.

[0007] As a further embodiment of this utility model, the lifting mechanism includes two hydraulic push rods, which are symmetrically fixed to the top of the first U-shaped frame. The output shafts of the two hydraulic push rods are fixed to the same second U-shaped plate, and both ends of the bottom of the second U-shaped plate are fixed to the connecting plate. The two hydraulic push rods are driven to cooperate with the second U-shaped plate to drive the connecting plate to rise or fall. During the process of the connecting plate rising or falling, it cooperates with the mounting plate to drive the top mold to rise or fall.

[0008] As a further embodiment of this utility model, a second rectangular hole is provided at one end of the top of the connecting plate, and a feed port is provided inside the second rectangular hole. One end of the feed port extends through the bottom of the mounting plate and is connected to the top mold. During injection molding, molten glass raw material is injected into the top mold through the feed port.

[0009] As a further embodiment of this utility model, the lifting mechanism includes a sleeve, which is fixed to one end of the bottom of the mounting base, and one end of the sleeve passes through the top of the U-shaped plate. A circular plate is slidably connected to the inner side wall of the sleeve, and a sleeve rod is fixed to the top of the circular plate, with one end of the sleeve rod passing through the top of the sleeve and fixed to the bottom mold. A second spring is provided on the inner side wall of the sleeve, and the second spring is located below the circular plate. When the mounting plate enters the U-shaped frame, the top mold is in pre-contact with the top of the bottom mold. As the top mold continues to descend, the bottom mold moves downward along the inner side wall of the U-shaped frame. As the bottom mold moves downward, the lifting mechanism is supported by the two sleeve rods. The action drives the two circular plates to move downwards along the inner walls of the two sleeves, thereby compressing the two second springs until the bottom mold and the top of the U-shaped plate are in contact and no longer move. After the formed glass partition has cooled and solidified, the two hydraulic push rods drive the second U-shaped plate to move upwards, which in turn drives the connecting plate and the mounting plate to move upwards until the top mold and the bottom mold separate. As the top mold and the bottom mold separate, the reaction action of the two compressed second springs pushes the two circular plates to move in the opposite direction. Together with the two sleeve rods, they lift the bottom mold to the top of the U-shaped frame, making it convenient for workers to remove the formed glass partition from the top of the bottom mold. The operation is simple and reduces the scrap rate.

[0010] As a further embodiment of this utility model, the first snap-fit ​​mechanism includes a rectangular block, which is fixed at the bottom center of the herringbone frame. Circular holes are provided on both symmetrical side walls of the rectangular block. A rectangular groove is provided on the top of the mounting base. Circular sliding grooves are provided on both symmetrical side walls of the rectangular groove, and both circular sliding grooves have a constricted opening structure. Circular sliders are slidably connected to the inner side walls of both circular sliding grooves. A circular column is fixed to one end of each of the two circular sliders, and the two circular columns are respectively adapted to the two rectangular grooves. A connecting rod is fixed to the other end of each of the two circular sliders, and one end of each connecting rod penetrates the outer side wall of the mounting base. A first spring is sleeved on the outer side wall of each connecting rod. By pulling the two connecting rods, the two circular sliders move away from each other along the inner side walls of the two circular sliding grooves, thereby causing the two circular columns to move away from each other until the two circular columns retract into the two circular sliding grooves. In this way, the herringbone frame, bottom mold, and rectangular block can be removed from the top of the mounting base as a whole, and then a new herringbone frame, bottom mold, and rectangular block can be replaced as a whole.

[0011] As a further embodiment of this utility model, the second snap-fit ​​mechanism includes a rectangular base, which is fixed to the top center of the mounting plate. The rectangular base has rectangular grooves on its two symmetrical outer sidewalls, and both rectangular grooves are constricted structures. Rectangular sliders are slidably connected to the inner sidewalls of both rectangular grooves. A rectangular locking block is fixed to one end of each of the two rectangular sliders. A third spring is provided inside each of the two rectangular grooves. A first rectangular hole is provided at the top center of the connecting plate, and the first rectangular hole is compatible with the rectangular base. Simultaneously pressing the two rectangular locking blocks causes the two rectangular sliders to move closer to each other along the inner sidewalls of the two rectangular grooves until the two rectangular locking blocks retract into the two rectangular grooves. At this point, the mounting plate, rectangular base, and top mold can be removed from the first rectangular hole, and then the mounting plate, rectangular base, and top mold can be replaced.

[0012] Compared with the prior art, the glass partition molding mold for refrigerators of this utility model has the following advantages:

[0013] 1. In this utility model, the design of the lifting mechanism can automatically lift the bottom mold after the glass partition has cooled and formed, making it convenient for workers to quickly remove the formed glass partition without the need for additional tools or force to pry the finished product, thus reducing the scrap rate.

[0014] 2. In this utility model, when it is necessary to injection mold glass partitions of different specifications, the first snap-fit ​​mechanism and the second snap-fit ​​mechanism can quickly disassemble and replace the entire assembly of the U-shaped frame, bottom mold, rectangular block, mounting plate, rectangular base and top mold without the need for installation and fixing with bolts and nuts. The operation is simple, saves time and improves work efficiency. Attached Figure Description

[0024] In this embodiment, the lifting mechanism includes two hydraulic push rods 4, which are symmetrically fixed to the top of the first U-shaped frame 3. The output shafts of the two hydraulic push rods 4 are fixed to the same second U-shaped plate 23, and both ends of the bottom of the second U-shaped plate 23 are fixed to the connecting plate 5.

[0025] In this embodiment, a second rectangular hole 25 is provided at one end of the top of the connecting plate 5. A feed port 7 is provided inside the second rectangular hole 25. One end of the feed port 7 passes through the bottom of the mounting plate 6, and the feed port 7 is connected to the top mold 26.

[0026] In this embodiment, the lifting mechanism includes a sleeve 18, which is fixed to one end of the bottom of the mounting base 1, and one end of the sleeve 18 passes through the top of the U-shaped plate 17. A circular plate 19 is slidably connected to the inner side wall of the sleeve 18, and a sleeve rod 20 is fixed to the top of the circular plate 19. One end of the sleeve rod 20 passes through the top of the sleeve 18 and is fixed to the bottom mold 8. A second spring 21 is provided on the inner side wall of the sleeve 18, and the second spring 21 is located below the circular plate 19.

[0027] In this embodiment, the first snap-fit ​​mechanism includes a rectangular block 15, which is fixed at the bottom center of the loop frame 2. Circular holes 16 are provided on both symmetrical side walls of the rectangular block 15. A rectangular groove 9 is provided on the top of the mounting base 1. Circular sliding grooves 10 are provided on both symmetrical side walls of the rectangular groove 9, and both circular sliding grooves 10 have a constricted opening structure. Circular sliders 11 are slidably connected to the inner side walls of both circular sliding grooves 10. Circular columns 12 are fixed to one end of each of the two circular sliders 11, and the two circular columns 12 are respectively adapted to the two rectangular grooves 9. Connecting rods 13 are fixed to the other end of each of the two circular sliders 11, and one end of each connecting rod 13 passes through the outer side wall of the mounting base 1. A first spring 14 is sleeved on the outer side wall of each of the two connecting rods 13.

[0028] In this embodiment, the second snap-fit ​​mechanism includes a rectangular base 22, which is fixed to the top center of the mounting plate 6. The rectangular base 22 has rectangular grooves 27 on both symmetrical outer sidewalls, and both rectangular grooves 27 are constricted structures. Rectangular sliders 28 are slidably connected to the inner sidewalls of both rectangular grooves 27. A rectangular locking block 29 is fixed to one end of each of the two rectangular sliders 28. A third spring 30 is provided inside each of the two rectangular grooves 27. A first rectangular hole 24 is provided at the top center of the connecting plate 5, and the first rectangular hole 24 is adapted to the rectangular base 22.

[0029] The working principle of this utility model is as follows: During the injection molding of the refrigerator glass partition, the two hydraulic push rods 4, in conjunction with the second U-shaped plate 23, drive the connecting plate 5 downward. As the connecting plate 5 moves downward, it, in conjunction with the mounting plate 6, drives the top mold 26 downward. When the mounting plate 6 enters the inner cavity of the U-shaped frame 2, the top mold 26 is in pre-contact with the top of the bottom mold 8. As the top mold 26 continues to descend, the bottom mold 8 moves downward along the inner wall of the U-shaped frame 2. With the downward movement of the bottom mold 8, the two sleeve rods 20 drive the two circular plates 19 to move downward along the inner walls of the two sleeves 18 respectively. This compresses both second springs 21 until the bottom mold 8 and the top of the U-shaped plate 17 are in contact and no longer move. At this point, the top mold 26 and the mounting plate 6 form a cavity, which is the injection space for the glass partition. During injection molding, molten glass raw material is injected into the cavity formed by the top mold 26 through the feed port 7. After it cools and solidifies, the two hydraulic push rods 4 drive the second U-shaped plate 23 to move upward, which in turn drives the connecting plate 5 and the mounting plate 6 to move upward until the top mold 26 and the bottom mold 8 separate. As the top mold 26 and the bottom mold 8 separate, the reaction force of the two compressed second springs 21 pushes the two circular... The shaped plate 19 moves in the opposite direction, cooperating with the two sleeve rods 20 to lift the bottom mold 8 to the top of the rectangular frame 2, making it convenient for workers to remove the formed glass partition from the top of the bottom mold 8. The operation is simple and reduces the scrap rate. When processing glass partitions of different specifications, it is necessary to change the bottom mold 8 and the top mold 26. First, by pulling the two connecting rods 13, the two circular sliders 11 are moved away from each other along the inner sidewalls of the two circular slides 10, which in turn drives the two circular columns 12 away from each other until the two circular columns 12 are retracted into the two circular slides 10. In this way, the rectangular frame 2, the bottom mold 8 and the rectangular block 15 can be removed from the top of the mounting base 1 as a whole. Then, the new circular frame 2, bottom mold 8, and rectangular block 15 can be replaced as a whole. When replacing the top mold 26, press the two rectangular blocks 29 at the same time, so that the two rectangular sliders 28 move closer to each other along the inner sidewalls of the two rectangular slides 27 until the two rectangular blocks 29 are retracted into the two rectangular slides 27. At this time, the mounting plate 6, rectangular seat 22, and top mold 26 can be removed from the first rectangular hole 24 as a whole, and then the mounting plate 6, rectangular seat 22, and top mold 26 can be replaced as a whole. There is no need to use bolts and nuts to tighten for installation and disassembly. The operation is simple, saves time, and improves work efficiency.

[0030] In summary, through the design of the lifting mechanism, the bottom mold 8 can be automatically lifted after the glass partition has cooled and formed, making it convenient for workers to quickly remove the formed glass partition without the need for additional tools or force to pry the finished product, thus reducing the scrap rate.

[0031] The specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative examples illustrating the spirit of this utility model. Those skilled in the art to which this utility model pertains may make various modifications or additions to the described specific embodiments or use similar methods to substitute them, without departing from the spirit of this utility model or exceeding the scope defined by the appended claims.
