Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of mold technology, and in particular to a hot-press demolding integrated machine. Background Technology

[0002] In existing industrial production, thermoforming and demolding are two key process steps, widely used in various fields such as plastic products and composite material products. Thermoforming is the process of heating and pressurizing materials to form the desired shape in a mold; demolding is the removal of the formed product from the mold.

[0003] Most existing hot presses employ a single-head structure, meaning they can only perform hot pressing operations on one mold at a time, and there is considerable unused space inside the press. This structure is significantly inefficient when handling large-scale production tasks. A single-head hot press requires waiting for one mold to complete its hot pressing process before operating on the next, resulting in low equipment utilization and long production cycles. To improve production efficiency, companies might consider increasing the number of hot presses. However, adding hot presses would lengthen the entire production line, requiring more production space and equipment investment. Furthermore, a longer production line would increase material transport distances and time, reducing production coordination and efficiency.

[0004] Furthermore, the hot pressing and demolding processes are handled by two separate machines during production, a design with significant drawbacks. On the one hand, if defective products appear after demolding, it is difficult to accurately determine which process in the entire production process caused the problem.

[0005] Therefore, this application develops a hot-press demolding integrated machine to solve the problems existing in the prior art. Utility Model Content

[0006] The purpose of this invention is to provide a hot-press demolding integrated machine to solve the problem in the prior art of not being able to determine which specific process caused the product damage.

[0007] The technical solution of this utility model is: a hot-press demolding integrated machine, comprising:

[0008] The preheating module, mounted on the support plate, is used to preheat the mold;

[0009] The hot pressing module, located in the forward direction of the mold, performs hot pressing molding on the mold;

[0010] Demolding assembly separates the mold from the product;

[0011] The conveying device includes a feeding mechanism and a discharging mechanism located on both sides of the mold moving direction. The feeding mechanism is located at the end of the preheating module away from the hot pressing module and is used to move the mold onto the preheating module. The discharging mechanism is arranged along the mold moving direction so that the mold can stay at any position along the moving direction.

[0012] The transfer module, located below the preheating component, moves the mold that has completed hot pressing out of the preheating module;

[0013] The reflux module, installed on the support plate and located between the transfer module and the demolding assembly, moves the hot-pressed mold onto the demolding assembly.

[0014] Preferably, the preheating module has a through hole, and the transfer module is disposed in the through hole; during the mold conveying stage, the upper surface of the transfer module is flush with the surface of the preheating module; when the hot pressing is completed and the mold needs to be transferred, the transfer module moves downward, and after moving, its upper surface is flush with the upper surface of the return module.

[0015] Preferably, the recirculation module includes a chute, a first driving device, and a second driving device. The chute is laid in a direction perpendicular to the direction of mold movement on the preheating module. The first driving device is installed at the end of the chute away from the demolding assembly, and its movement direction is the same as the direction of mold movement on the preheating module, moving the mold from the transfer module onto the chute. The second driving device is installed on one side of the chute, driving the mold to move along the chute's laying direction, and conveying the mold to the location of the demolding assembly.

[0016] Preferably, the mold reflux module is further provided with cooling pipes, and a plurality of cooling pipes are arranged in an array in the moving direction of the mold, and the arrangement direction of the cooling pipes is perpendicular to the upper surface of the mold.

[0017] Preferably, the demolding assembly includes a demolding hole and a receiving box. The demolding hole is located at a designated position during the demolding operation and is used to support the mold to be demolded. The receiving box is located directly below the demolding hole and is used to receive the product ejected from the mold.

[0018] Preferably, there are two hot pressing modules, both located in the integrated machine, and correspondingly, there are two preheating modules, two demolding components, two conveying devices, two transfer modules, and two reflux modules.

[0019] Compared with the prior art, the advantages of this utility model are:

[0020] (1) Products from the same batch are moved to the demolding components of that batch. When the products are defective or damaged after demolding, it is easy to determine which process is problematic, so as to carry out timely repairs and reduce the difficulty of troubleshooting.

[0021] (2) Two hot pressing modules are set, and two preheating modules, demolding components, conveying devices, transfer modules and return modules are also set, forming two relatively independent but mutually cooperating production paths, which significantly improves the overall production efficiency of the hot pressing demolding integrated machine and meets the needs of large-scale production.

[0022] (3) The demolding assembly includes a demolding hole and a receiving box. The demolding hole provides space for the product to fall, and the receiving box is set directly below the demolding hole, which realizes the effective reception and collection of the product, avoids the product from being bumped or knocked by falling directly, and improves the product quality.

[0030] The present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to specific embodiments:

[0031] like Figures 1-4As shown, a hot press demolding integrated machine includes a preheating module 2, a hot press module 3, a demolding component 4, a conveying device 5, a transfer module 6, and a return module 7. The support plate 1 provides support and a mounting platform for the entire integrated machine. The preheating module 2 is mounted on the support plate 1 and is used to preheat the mold to a certain temperature, significantly reducing the time required for hot pressing. The mold is moved to the preheating module 2 or the hot press module 3 via the conveying device 5. The conveying device 5 includes a loading mechanism 51 and a unloading mechanism 52. The loading mechanism 51 is located at the end of the preheating module 2 away from the hot press module 3 and is used to accurately move the mold to be processed onto the preheating module 2. The unloading mechanism 52 is arranged along the mold's movement direction, driving the mold to precisely stop at any designated position along this movement direction to ensure the mold's stability. The process flows smoothly between each stage. The hot pressing module 3 is located in the forward direction of the mold. After the mold is preheated, it moves to the hot pressing module 3, where it performs a hot pressing process to shape the material inside the mold into the required shape. Then, the mold is moved to the transfer module by the conveying device 5. The transfer module is located below the preheating module 2. After the mold completes the hot pressing in the preheating module 2, the transfer module 6 removes the mold from the preheating module 2 and moves it to the return module 7. The return module 7 is installed on the support plate 1 and is located between the transfer module 6 and the demolding component 4. It is used to transport the mold removed by the transfer module 6 to the location of the demolding component 4, completing the automated cycle from hot pressing to demolding. Finally, the demolding component 4 separates the mold that has completed the hot pressing from the product, thus removing the product from the mold.

[0032] like Figures 1-3 As shown, the demolding assembly 4 and the hot pressing module 3 are connected through the return module 7. This eliminates the need for the mold to move to the next process after being removed from the hot pressing module 3 before demolding, reducing process complexity. Furthermore, since the mold enters the demolding assembly 4 after hot pressing, rather than multiple batches sequentially entering the demolding assembly 4 along the conveyor belt in the traditional way, if the product has defects or damage after demolding, it is difficult to determine which batch has the problem among many molds in the traditional method, increasing the difficulty of troubleshooting. However, in this application, different batches of products move to the demolding assembly 4 of that batch, making it easy to determine which process has the problem and thus carry out repairs.

[0033] In practical applications, such as Figure 5As shown, to improve production efficiency and capacity, two hot pressing modules 3 are configured, both installed inside the integrated machine. Compared to traditional hot presses, which only have one hot pressing module 3, this application uses two hot pressing modules 3 within the hot press, utilizing the extra space inside the hot press without increasing the volume of the hot pressing device. Correspondingly, two preheating modules 2, two demolding components 4, two conveying devices 5, two transfer modules 6, and two return modules 7 are also configured. This allows the two hot pressing modules 3 to work independently and collaboratively. Each hot pressing module 3 is equipped with a complete set of preheating, demolding, conveying, transfer, and return modules 7, forming two relatively independent yet mutually cooperating production paths, thereby significantly improving the overall production efficiency of the integrated hot pressing and demolding machine and meeting the needs of large-scale production.

[0034] In this embodiment, as Figure 2 As shown, the preheating module 2 has a through hole 21, and the transfer module 6 is disposed inside the through hole 21. When the mold is in the conveying stage, the upper surface of the transfer module 6 is at the same level as the surface of the preheating module 2, that is, they are flush, to ensure that the mold can be smoothly and stably conveyed to the preheating module 2 or the hot pressing module 3. When the mold has completed the hot pressing in the preheating module 2 and needs to be transferred, the unloading mechanism 52 moves the mold to the transfer module 6. The transfer module 6 moves downward. After it moves into place, its upper surface is at the same level as the upper surface of the return module 7, that is, they are flush, thereby realizing the smooth transition and conveying of the mold from the preheating module 2 to the return module 7, ensuring the continuity and stability of the mold flow between various processes in the integrated machine.

[0035] Specifically, such as Figure 3 As shown, the reflow module 7 includes a chute 71, a first drive device 72, and a second drive device 72. The laying direction of the chute 71 is perpendicular to the movement direction of the mold on the preheating module 2, providing a clear path guide for the movement of the mold within the reflow module 7. The first drive device 72 is installed at the end of the chute 71 away from the demolding component 4, and its movement direction is consistent with the movement direction of the mold on the preheating module 2. The second drive device 72 is installed on one side of the chute 71, driving the mold to move along the laying direction of the chute 71. After the mold completes hot pressing and is removed from the transfer module 6, the first drive device 72 is activated, and its driving end smoothly pushes the mold from the transfer module 6 onto the chute 71, completing the initial transfer of the mold from the transfer module 6 to the chute 71. After the first drive device 72 transfers the mold to the chute 71, the second drive device 72 is activated, driving the mold to slide within the chute 71, and finally accurately delivering the mold to the location of the demolding component 4, realizing the automated connection of the mold from hot pressing to demolding.

[0036] Furthermore, multiple cooling pipes 73 are installed on the reflow module 7. The multiple cooling pipes 73 are arranged in an array in the direction of mold movement. One end of the cooling pipe 73 is connected to a cold source, and the other end is perpendicular to the upper surface of the mold, thereby quickly removing the heat accumulated in the mold during the hot pressing process, effectively reducing the temperature of the mold, and facilitating subsequent demolding.

[0037] like Figure 4 As shown, to prevent the product from falling directly after demolding, which could cause damage and affect product quality, the demolding component 4 includes a demolding hole 41 and a receiving box 42. The demolding hole 41 is set at a designated position during the demolding operation. The mold moves to this position to wait for demolding, and the demolding hole 41 also provides space for the product to fall. The receiving box 42 is set directly below the demolding hole 41, and its position is precisely aligned with the demolding hole 41. When the mold completes the demolding operation at the demolding hole 41, the product will fall directly into the receiving box 42 directly below after it comes out of the mold, thus achieving effective reception and collection of the product and avoiding direct drop of the product, which could cause damage due to excessive height difference.

Therefore, the embodiments should be considered exemplary and non-limiting in all respects.
