The decorative panel body 110 is provided with a plurality of irregularly shaped reinforcing ribs 160 close to the installation extension edge 140.
[0035] During injection molding, overflow is likely to occur at the edges of the decorative panel body 110 and the mounting part 150, which affects product quality. Furthermore, due to the special structural design of the mounting extension edge 140 and the irregular reinforcing rib 160, demolding is more difficult after injection molding and requires a longer demolding time.
[0036] In response to the above problems, such as Figures 3-10As shown, the injection mold includes a first injection mold base 1 and a second injection mold base 2 that cooperates with it. The first injection mold base 1 is provided with a first template 11, and the second injection mold base 2 is provided with a second template 21 that matches the first template 11. The first template 11 is provided with two pairs of B-pillar decorative panel forming cavities 12, and the second template 21 is provided with B-pillar decorative panel forming male cavities 22 that match the two pairs of B-pillar decorative panel forming cavities 12.
[0037] In this embodiment, as a specific solution, the B-pillar decorative panel molding cavity 12 is provided with an extension edge cooling cavity 13, which is located close to the mounting extension edge 140 of the B-pillar decorative panel; more specifically, the extension edge cooling cavity 13 is an additional cooling cavity, which, in addition to the normal cooling of the mold, provides additional cooling for the special structural design of the mounting extension edge 140 and the irregular reinforcing rib 160, thereby facilitating subsequent demolding operations and shortening demolding time.
[0038] In this embodiment, as a specific solution, the first template 11 is composed of two first sub-templates 111, each first sub-template 111 having a pair of B-pillar decorative panel forming cavities 12; the second template 21 is composed of two second sub-templates 211, each second sub-template 211 having a pair of male cavities 22 forming with the B-pillar decorative panel.
[0039] In this embodiment, as a more specific solution, both the first sub-template 111 and the second sub-template 211 can be replaced; more specifically, both the first sub-template 111 and the two second sub-templates 211 can be replaced with different templates as needed, so that two pairs of B-pillar decorative panels can be formed at one time, or they can be used to form two different products.
[0040] In another specific embodiment, as a specific solution, the B-pillar decorative panel molding cavity 12 has an arc-shaped structure that rises from one end to the other from the mounting portion 150 of the B-pillar decorative panel; the first template 11 is provided with a molding limiting block 14 at the edge of the decorative panel body 110 corresponding to the mounting portion 150 of the B-pillar decorative panel, and the second template 21 is provided with a molding limiting groove 23 that matches the molding limiting block 14; this structure can reduce the risk of overflow at the edge of the decorative panel body 110 corresponding to the mounting portion 150, and helps to ensure the precision of the injection molded product.
[0041] In another specific embodiment, as a specific solution, the outer periphery of the first template 11 is provided with a plurality of alignment grooves 15, and the outer periphery of the second template 21 is provided with a plurality of alignment blocks 24 that match the alignment grooves 15; when the first injection mold base 1 and the second injection mold base 2 are closed, positioning is performed at the alignment grooves 15 and the alignment blocks 24, which helps to accurately close the mold.
[0042] In another specific embodiment, as a specific solution, the first injection mold base 1 is provided with alignment posts 16 at its four corners, and the second injection mold base 2 is provided with alignment holes 25 that match the alignment posts 16. When the first injection mold base 1 and the second injection mold base 2 are closed, preliminary alignment can be achieved through the cooperation of the alignment posts 16 and the alignment holes 25.
[0043] In another specific embodiment, as a specific solution, locking blocks 17 are also provided at the four corners of the first injection mold base 1. The locking blocks 17 are used to lock the first injection mold base 1 and the second injection mold base 2 when they are closed. More specifically, the locking blocks 17 are locked by bolts.
[0044] In another specific embodiment, as a specific solution, the first template 11 is provided with a first heat dissipation cavity 18 on its outer periphery, and the second template 21 is provided with a second heat dissipation cavity 26 on its outer periphery; during the injection molding process, this helps the first template 11 and the second template 21 to dissipate heat.
[0045] In another specific embodiment, as a specific solution, the second injection mold base 2 is also provided with a moving module 27, and the first injection mold base 1 is provided with a moving module groove 19 that matches the moving module 27. After injection molding is completed, during the demolding process, the moving module 27 can be used to assist in pushing the first injection mold base 1, thereby assisting in demolding.
[0046] The working principle of this utility model is as follows:
[0047] When the first injection mold base 1 and the second injection mold base 2 are closed, the alignment pin 16 and the alignment hole 25 are aligned, and the alignment block 24 and the alignment groove 15 are aligned. Then, injection molding begins in the B-pillar decorative panel forming cavity 12 and the B-pillar decorative panel forming cavity 22. During injection molding, due to the setting of the forming limit block 14, the material is less likely to overflow at the edge of the decorative panel body corresponding to the mounting part of the B-pillar decorative panel. In addition, due to the setting of the additional extended edge cooling cavity, the special design of the B-pillar decorative panel can be cooled, which helps with subsequent demolding. After injection molding is completed, when the first injection mold base 1 and the second injection mold base 2 are separated, the moving module 27 can play a role in assisting demolding. This utility model can inject two pairs of B-pillar decorative panels at one time, which can improve production efficiency.
