Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of vehicle parts manufacturing, and in particular to a mold for automotive valve seals and a mold hole generating device. Background Technology

[0002] In the production of automotive valve seals, precision injection molds are key equipment for achieving high precision and consistency. Existing sealing molds typically employ a split structure, with an annular groove on the mold body for mounting the mold core. However, such molds have a significant drawback in long-term use: rigid collisions easily occur between the mold core and the mold body's contact surfaces during mold closing. Specifically, the depth of the mold hole in traditional molds is usually equal to the distance from the bottom of the groove to the contact surface, resulting in the mold core's end face being flush with the contact surface after installation. During mold closing, the contact surfaces of the upper and lower molds directly contact each other, causing a hard collision between the mold core's end face and the contact surface.

[0003] The industry has attempted to mitigate damage by increasing the hardness of mold steel or adding surface coatings, but these efforts have failed to fundamentally eliminate the collision mechanism. For example, existing technologies may include a mold core shear, as shown in the instruction manual. Figure 1 As shown, this structure makes it easy to damage the mold core during the post-molding process. At the same time, the influence of the mold core shearing structure is difficult to remove effectively, leading to a decrease in product yield.

[0004] To overcome this technical bottleneck, it is urgent to design a mold structure that can fundamentally avoid collisions during mold closing. Utility Model Content

[0039] The specific embodiments of this utility model are described in detail below, but it should be understood that the protection scope of this utility model is not limited to the specific embodiments.

[0040] like Figures 2 to 6 As shown, this utility model embodiment provides an automotive valve sealing mold, which is mainly installed on an automotive valve. The mold is configured as a mold body 100, and a groove 110 is provided in an annular shape on the mold body 100. The groove 110 is installed in conjunction with the lower mold of the automotive valve. In this embodiment, an abutment surface 130 is formed on the side of the mold body 100 opposite to the groove 110. The abutment surface 130 is installed in conjunction with the upper mold to form the entire sealing component of the automotive valve.

[0041] In the above structure, a plurality of mold holes 120 are formed within the groove 110. In this application, six mold holes 120 are arranged in a ring. The depth of each of the six mold holes 120 is less than the thickness of the bottom of the groove 110 of the mold body 100, and a mold core is installed within each mold hole 120. A certain gap is formed between the end face of the mold core and the abutment surface 130. A thin film 140 is disposed within this gap. The thickness of the thin film 140 is controlled between 0.1 mm and 0.3 mm. In this application, the thickness of the thin film 140 is preferably 0.15 mm. This design ensures that during the mold closing process, there will be no hard collision between the end face of the mold core and the abutment surface 130, as the thin film 140 provides cushioning, thereby effectively avoiding damage to the mold. Meanwhile, since the depth of the mold hole 120 is less than the distance from the bottom of the groove 110 to the abutment surface 130, the end face of the mold core will be lower than the abutment surface 130 after installation. In this way, when the mold is closed, the abutment surfaces 130 of the upper and lower molds will contact first, while the end face of the mold core is protected by the film 140, avoiding collision damage.

[0042] In this embodiment, the film 140 is formed between the bottom of the die hole 120 and the abutment surface 130.

[0043] In order to form the film 140, this application also provides a die hole generating device, which generates a die hole 120 in the groove 110 during the formation of the mold body 100, and generates a film 140 in the die hole 120.

[0044] In this embodiment, the thin film 140 is provided to facilitate the subsequent laser deburring process, so that the laser can remove the thin film 140.

[0045] To facilitate the formation of the film 140, the die hole 120 forming device includes an abutment 200. The outer shape of the abutment 200 corresponds to the shape of the groove 110, so that the abutment 200 can be accurately positioned within the groove 110 when it mates with the mold body 100. One end face of the abutment 200 is used to form the groove 110 of the mold body 100, so that the groove 110 can mate with the lower mold when the mold is closed.

[0046] The forming part 300 is movably disposed on the abutment 200, and the specific shape and size of the forming part 300 match the required die hole 120. When the automotive valve seal mold is formed, the die hole 120 is formed by the forming part 300, that is, the forming part 300 moves within the abutment 200 to extrude a die hole 120 within the groove 110.

[0047] An adjusting device 400 is disposed on the abutment member 200, and the forming member 300 is connected to the adjusting device 400. The adjusting device 400 allows adjustment of the length of movement of the forming member 300 within the abutment member 200, i.e., adjusting the distance the forming member 300 moves within the abutment member 200, thereby controlling the depth of the formed die hole 120. In this application, by precisely adjusting the length of the forming member 300, the distance from the bottom of the die hole 120 to the abutment surface 130 is made less than the depth of the die hole 120, thereby forming a thin film 140 between the die hole 120 and the abutment surface 130.

[0048] To facilitate the formation of a thin film 140, in this embodiment of the application, one end of the forming member 300 has a forming end 310, which is used to form the bottom of the mold hole 120. In this application, the forming member 300 is configured as a cylindrical structure, and the radius of the cylindrical structure is equal to the radius of the mold hole 120 formed therefrom.

[0049] The adjusting device 400 adjusts the axial position of the forming part 300 relative to the abutment 200, thereby changing the position of the forming end 310 relative to the end face of the abutment 200 used to form the abutment surface 130, in order to control the thickness of the film 140 between the bottom of the formed die hole 120 and the die abutment surface 130.

[0050] In the above-described adjustment device 400, an adjustment screw 410 is rotatably mounted within the abutment member 200, with one end of the adjustment screw 410 connected to the forming member 300. By rotating the adjustment screw 410, the forming member 300 can be pushed or pulled within the abutment member 200, thereby adjusting the length of the forming member 300 within the abutment member 200. In this embodiment, a drive device 500 is also provided within the abutment member 200. The drive device 500 is connected to the adjustment screw 410, and can drive the adjustment screw 410 to move relative to the abutment member 200, further achieving precise adjustment of the length of the forming member 300.

[0051] In this embodiment, the drive device 500 includes a drive motor 510, which is mounted on the abutment member 200 and provides power. The output shaft of the drive motor 510 is connected to a reduction mechanism 520, which reduces the output speed of the drive motor 510 and increases the torque to ensure that the adjusting screw 410 can move smoothly and accurately. The reduction mechanism 520 is threadedly connected to the adjusting screw 410. When the drive motor 510 operates, it transmits power to the adjusting screw 410 through the reduction mechanism 520, causing it to rotate and move axially.

[0052] In the above structure, the reduction mechanism 520 includes a threaded rod 521 and a turntable 522. The threaded rod 521 is rotatably connected to the output shaft of the drive motor 510 and is perpendicular to the adjusting screw 410. The turntable 522 is sleeved on the adjusting screw 410 and threadedly connected to it. Simultaneously, the outer edge of the turntable 522 is connected to the threaded rod 521, so that when the threaded rod 521 rotates, it can drive the turntable 522 to rotate, thereby driving the adjusting screw 410 to move axially. Figure 6 As shown, this design forms a worm gear structure, which not only achieves smooth power transmission, but also ensures the accuracy of the movement of the adjusting screw 410, thereby meeting the high precision requirements for the thickness of the film 140 during the formation of the die hole 120.

[0053] In this embodiment, the drive motor 510 includes a servo motor, which facilitates precise adjustment of the adjusting screw 410.

[0054] In summary, the process of generating the mold hole 120 of the automotive valve sealing component mold using the mold hole 120 generating device is as follows:

[0055] Step 1: Device pre-positioning

[0056] The abutment 200 of the die hole 120 generating device is aligned with the groove 110 of the die body 100 and installed to ensure that the outer edge of the abutment 200 is completely fitted with the groove 110;

[0057] The end face of the abutment 200 is pressed against the mold body 100 to form a flat abutment surface 130;

[0058] Step 2: Initial forming of die hole 120

[0059] Start the servo motor to drive the output shaft to rotate at a set speed. The power is transmitted through the reduction mechanism 520: the worm gear transmission ratio in the reduction mechanism 520 is 1:20.

[0060] The turntable 522 drives the adjusting screw 410 to advance axially, so as to push the forming part 300 to move towards the bottom of the groove 110. The forming end 310 extrudes the material of the mold body 100 to form a mold hole 120.

[0061] Step 3: Precise adjustment of film thickness (140mm)

[0062] The servo motor receives a setting command with a thickness of 0.15mm and runs accordingly. The reduction mechanism 520 converts the motor rotation into a micron-level displacement of the adjusting screw 410 (2μm per pulse feed).

[0063] The extension length L of the forming part 300 is adjusted in real time to form a film 140 with a thickness of 0.15 mm.

[0064] The above-disclosed embodiments are only a few specific examples of the present utility model. However, the embodiments of the present utility model are not limited thereto. Any changes that can be conceived by those skilled in the art should fall within the protection scope of the present utility model.
