[0023] 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.
[0024] Example
[0025] like Figures 1-3 As shown in one embodiment of this utility model, a molding device for processing silicone parts includes a worktable 1. A first cylinder 2 and a cylindrical linear guide rail 3 are respectively mounted on the worktable 1. The output end of the first cylinder 2 is connected to the slider of the cylindrical linear guide rail 3. A base plate 4 is mounted on the slider of the cylindrical linear guide rail 3. A second cylinder 5 and a support plate 6 are respectively hinged to the base plate 4. A connecting rod 7 is hinged to the output end of the second cylinder 5 and is connected to the support plate 6. A hot-pressing lower mold 8 is mounted on the support plate 6. The first cylinder 2 drives the hot-pressing lower mold 8 forward a certain distance, moving the hot-pressing lower mold 8 away from the upper hot-pressing mold 13 above. To effectively prevent the upper mold from crushing the operator and improve safety, the second cylinder 5 drives the connecting rod 7 to rotate the lower hot-pressing mold 8 within a range of 30°-90°, so that the pitch angle of the lower hot-pressing mold 8 is adjusted to a suitable angle, so that the operator can pick up the material according to his own height and habits, ensuring the speed of material picking and the comfort of the operator. The workbench 1 is equipped with columns 9 around its perimeter, and a lower crossbeam 10 is slidably connected to the columns 9. An upper crossbeam 11 is installed on the top of the columns 9, and a hydraulic cylinder 12 is installed on the upper crossbeam 11. The output end of the hydraulic cylinder 12 is connected to the lower crossbeam 10, and a hot-pressing upper mold 13 is installed on the lower crossbeam 10.
[0026] like Figure 1 As shown, in some embodiments, the first cylinder 2 and the cylindrical linear guide 3 are located on both sides of the base plate 4, and a first magnetic switch 14 is installed on the first cylinder 2. The first magnetic switch 14 is triggered by detecting the magnetic ring on the piston. The magnetic switch is usually installed outside or inside the cylinder. When the piston moves to a specific position, the built-in magnetic ring triggers the switch to act and outputs a signal to feed back the piston stroke. This is the most common detection method in pneumatic systems and has the characteristics of fast response and strong anti-interference.
[0027] like Figure 3 As shown, in some embodiments, a collar 15 is installed at the front end of the second cylinder 5, and a second magnetic switch 16 is installed on the second cylinder 5. The collar 15 is an assembly structure used for the installation of the second cylinder 5. The second magnetic switch 16 has the same function as the first magnetic switch 14, which is used to detect the working stroke of the cylinder.
[0028] like Figure 3 As shown, in some embodiments, a first bearing seat 17 is installed on the base plate 4, and the collar 15 is hinged to the first bearing seat 17 by a pin. The main function of the first bearing seat 17 is to support the rotating shaft (pin), bear axial and radial loads, and lubricate the bearing with the lubricating oil inside to reduce friction and wear.
[0029] like Figure 3 As shown, in some embodiments, a second bearing seat 18 is installed on the base plate 4, and the support plate 6 is hinged to the second bearing seat 18 by a pin. The second bearing seat 18 has the same function as the first bearing seat 17, which is used to support the rotating shaft (pin).
[0030] like Figure 3 As shown, in some embodiments, the base plate 4 is provided with a cylinder 19, and the cylinder 19 is supported on the bottom of the support plate 6. When the support plate 6 is in a horizontal state, the cylinder 19 is used to support the support plate 6.
[0031] like Figure 1 As shown, in some embodiments, the lower hot press mold 8 corresponds to the upper hot press mold 13, and the column 9 is located outside the first cylinder 2. In the field of material manufacturing and molding, hot press molds and compression molds are two widely used technologies. Hot press molds, often referred to as hot pressing, involve applying heat and pressure simultaneously to shape and cure materials. That is, the mold is heated to a specific temperature and pressure is applied to shape the material and begin the curing process. Parts produced by this method have excellent dimensional stability and high mechanical strength, and are particularly suitable for thermosetting materials that require heating for cross-linking and hardening.
[0032] During use, the first cylinder 2 moves the lower hot press mold 8 forward a certain distance, keeping it away from the upper hot press mold 13 above, effectively preventing the upper mold from injuring the operator and improving safety. At this time, the second cylinder 5 drives the connecting rod 7 to rotate the lower hot press mold 8 within the range of 30°-90°, adjusting the pitch angle of the lower hot press mold 8 to a suitable angle so that the operator can pick up the material according to their own height and habits, ensuring the speed of material picking and the comfort of the operator. After picking up the material, the second cylinder 5 drives the lower hot press mold 8 to reset (horizontal state). The operator puts the silicone raw material into the lower hot press mold 8, and then the first cylinder 2 drives the lower hot press mold 8 to reset (located directly below the upper hot press mold 13), and then pressing is performed. This cycle is repeated.
[0033] In summary, when the pressing is completed and the material is removed, the first cylinder 2 drives the lower hot press mold 8 to move forward a certain distance, so that the lower hot press mold 8 is away from the upper hot press mold 13 above, which can effectively prevent the upper mold from crushing the operator and improve safety. At this time, the second cylinder 5 drives the connecting rod 7 to rotate the lower hot press mold 8 in the range of 30°-90°, so that the pitch angle of the lower hot press mold 8 is adjusted to a suitable angle, so that the operator can remove the material according to his own height and habits, ensuring the speed of material removal and the comfort of the operator.
[0034] Finally, it should be noted that the above description is merely a preferred embodiment of this utility model and is 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.
