Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of cold heading machine technology, specifically to a mold positioning structure for a multi-station quick mold changing cold heading machine. Background Technology
[0002] A cold heading machine is a mechanical device that utilizes the principle of metal plastic forming to apply pressure to a metal blank, causing it to undergo plastic deformation within a mold, thereby producing parts of the required shape and size. It is mainly used for the mass production of standard and non-standard parts such as bolts, nuts, and rivets. It features high production efficiency, stable processing accuracy, high material utilization, and low cost, and is widely used in numerous industrial fields such as automotive, aerospace, electronics, and machinery manufacturing.
[0003] Traditional positioning structures often use bolts to directly fix the mold. Due to the lack of a precise three-dimensional positioning reference, horizontal offset or vertical tilting easily occurs during mold installation. Some structures rely solely on planar contact for positioning. When the cold heading machine operates at high speed, the mold vibrates and shifts, leading to significant workpiece dimensional deviations. This error directly impacts product yield, especially in precision parts machining. Changing molds on traditional cold heading machines requires the use of wrenches and other tools to remove bolts one by one, with a single mold change typically taking over thirty minutes. For multi-station cold heading machines, frequent bolt removal and installation when switching between different mold sizes not only increases worker workload but also results in lost production capacity due to prolonged downtime.

The connecting plates 314 have snap-fit openings inside, and the connecting plates 314 are snap-fit connected to the uprights 312 through the snap-fit openings. The uprights 312 have a second snap-fit opening inside, and movable grooves are provided on both sides of the circular base 313. The movable grooves are provided with... The telescopic rod 315 has a locking block 316 at its telescopic end. The locking block 316 is engaged with the column 312 through a locking port.

[0032] Example 2:
[0033] Based on Embodiment 1, a preferred embodiment of the mold positioning structure of a multi-station rapid mold change cold heading machine provided by this utility model is, for example... Figure 1-5 As shown: The clamping component 32 includes: a motor 321, fixedly installed inside the mounting groove; a connecting outer cylinder 323, fixedly installed on the top of the circular base 313; sliding openings are respectively opened on both sides of the connecting outer cylinder 323; a threaded rod 322 is provided at the output end of the motor 321; the other end of the threaded rod 322 is movably connected to the top of the inner wall of the connecting outer cylinder 323; sliding grooves are equidistantly opened on the circumference of the top of the inner wall of the connecting outer cylinder 323; a conical push block 324 is threadedly connected to the outer wall of the threaded rod 322; sliders 325 are fixedly installed on both sides of the conical push block 324; the other side of the slider 325 movably passes through the sliding opening and is fixedly installed with a limiting ring 326; the limiting ring 326 is slidably sleeved on the outer wall of the connecting outer cylinder 323; a guide rod 327 is fixedly installed inside the sliding groove; a connecting vertical plate 328 is slidably sleeved on the outer wall of the guide rod 327; a connecting horizontal rod 3211 is fixedly sleeved at the bottom of the connecting vertical plate 328; one side of the connecting horizontal rod 3211... The end of the connecting rod 3211 contacts the outer wall of the tapered pusher 324. The other end of the connecting crossbar 3211 movably passes through the inner wall of the connecting outer cylinder 323 and extends to the outer wall of the connecting outer cylinder 323. A spring 329 is sleeved on the outer wall of the guide rod 327. One end of the spring 329 is fixedly connected to the connecting outer cylinder 323, and the other end of the spring 329 is fixedly connected to the connecting vertical plate 328. Protrusions 3214 are equidistantly installed on the circumference of the outer wall of the connecting outer cylinder 323. The two sides of the protrusions 3214 are... The connecting rod 3213 is provided with a sliding port 2 inside the connecting rod 3213. The other end of the connecting crossbar 3211 is fixedly installed with slide rods 3212 on both sides. The slide rods 3212 are slidably connected to the connecting rod 3213 through the sliding port 2. The other end of the connecting rod 3213 is fixedly installed with a connecting block 3215. The other side of the connecting block 3215 is fixedly installed with an arc-shaped clamping plate 3216. The top of the connecting outer cylinder 323 is fixedly equipped with a positioning ring 3217.
[0034] Furthermore, in this embodiment, after the motor 321 is started, the output threaded rod 322 rotates, causing the threaded conical push block 324 to move upward along the threaded rod 322. The sliders 325 on both sides of the conical push block 324 slide within the sliding opening of the connecting outer cylinder 323. At the same time, the sliders 325 drive the limiting ring 326 to move upward along the outer wall of the connecting outer cylinder 323, ensuring the stable movement of the conical push block 324. When the conical push block 324 moves upward, its outer wall pushes the connecting crossbar 3211 to move outward, connecting... The horizontal bar 3211 drives the connecting vertical plate 328 to slide on the guide rod 327, the spring 329 is stretched, the connecting vertical plate 328 transmits the thrust to the connecting rod 3213 through the connecting horizontal bar 3211, the slide bar 3212 at the end of the connecting horizontal bar 3211 slides in the sliding port 2 of the connecting rod 3213, pushing the connecting rod 3213 to unfold outward, the connecting rod 3213 drives the connecting block 3215 and the arc-shaped clamping plate 3216 to move outward until the arc-shaped clamping plate 3216 is in close contact with the outer wall of the mold 4.
[0035] In use, the positioning structure is fixed to the cold heading machine by the mounting plate 1 and bolts 2. The positioning component 3 is used to achieve quick assembly and disassembly and precise clamping of the mold 4. The positioning component 3 is divided into an assembly / disassembly component 31 and a clamping component 32. The two work together to complete the positioning and fixing of the mold. The arc-shaped positioning plate 311 surrounds the top of the mounting plate 1 to provide initial positioning for the circular base 313. The column 312 is symmetrically fixed on the mounting plate 1. The connecting plate 314 is initially engaged with the column 312 through the snap-fit joint, so that the circular base 313 is in the state to be fixed. The telescopic rod 315 is covered by a spring 317. Initially, the spring 317 is in the natural state, and the snap-fit block 316 is not fully inserted into the snap-fit joint of the column 312. During installation, the circular base 313 is pressed down, and the connecting plate 314... 4. Slide down along the column 312 and push the locking block 316 outward, so that the locking block 316 inserts into the second locking slot. At the same time, the telescopic rod 315 and the first spring 317 extend, locking the circular base 313 and the column 312. The baffle 318 in the groove at the top of the locking block 316 is connected to the first protrusion 319 through the first movable rod 3111 and the second movable rod 3112. The second spring 3113 is sleeved on the outside of the movable rod. After the locking block 316 is inserted into the second locking slot, the baffle 318 flips under the action of the second spring 3113, covering the top of the second locking slot, preventing the locking block 316 from popping out due to vibration, thus playing an anti-loosening role. When disassembly is required, press down on the baffle 318, and the baffle 318 will drive the first movable rod 3111 and the second movable rod 3112 to fold. Simultaneously, spring 3113 is compressed. After there is no obstruction, spring 317 rebounds, causing the locking block 316 to disengage from locking port 2, thus facilitating disassembly. The mold 4 is placed inside the positioning ring 3217, and the motor 321 is started. After the motor 321 starts, the output threaded rod 322 rotates, causing the threaded conical push block 324 to move upward along the threaded rod 322. The sliders 325 on both sides of the conical push block 324 slide within the sliding opening of the connecting outer cylinder 323. At the same time, the sliders 325 drive the limiting ring 326 to move upward along the outer wall of the connecting outer cylinder 323, ensuring the stable movement of the conical push block 324. When the conical push block 324 moves upward, its outer wall pushes the connecting crossbar 3211 to move outward. The connecting crossbar 3211 drives the connecting vertical plate. 328 slides on guide rod 327, spring 329 stretches, connecting vertical plate 328 transmits thrust to connecting rod 3213 through connecting horizontal bar 3211, slides slide rod 3212 at the end of connecting horizontal bar 3211 in sliding port 2 of connecting rod 3213, pushing connecting rod 3213 outward, connecting rod 3213 drives connecting block 3215 and arc-shaped clamping plate 3216 to move outward until arc-shaped clamping plate 3216 is in close contact with the outer wall of mold 4, achieving precise clamping of mold. Motor 321 reverses, conical push block 324 moves down, spring 329 resets and pushes connecting vertical plate 328 inward, driving connecting horizontal bar 3211 and arc-shaped clamping plate 3216 to retract, releasing clamping of mold, thus facilitating replacement of mold 4.
