Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of mold cooling technology, and in particular to a quick-connect device for mold cooling water channels. Background Technology

[0002] In the mold processing field, the mold cooling system is a key component to ensure product molding quality and production efficiency. To achieve effective cooling of the mold, it is usually necessary to use an external coolant to flow through the cooling water channels inside the mold and carry away the heat generated by the mold during the molding process. However, for large molds, due to their complex structure and large molding area, the demand for coolant increases significantly. Consequently, multiple independent cooling water channels need to be set up to meet the requirements of uniform cooling. Large molds often require a large number of pipes to be connected, and the operation process of installing and disassembling each pipe is cumbersome. This not only takes up a lot of production preparation time, but also increases equipment downtime and affects production efficiency. Therefore, there is an urgent need for a device that can pre-complete the connection of external cooling pipes and can quickly dock with the mold to simplify the connection operation, shorten downtime, and meet the needs of efficient production of large molds.

Detailed Implementation

[0019] The present application will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0020] This application provides a quick-connect device for mold cooling water channels, such as... Figure 1 and 6 As shown, the device includes a front connecting plate 1 and a rear connecting plate 2 that are parallel to each other and fixedly connected by bolts. The front connecting plate 1 has multiple front mounting holes 11 for connecting the mold, which are distributed at the top corners of the front connecting plate 1. The rear connecting plate 2 has multiple rear mounting holes for connecting the mold. The multiple rear mounting holes are coaxially arranged in a one-to-one correspondence with the multiple front mounting holes 11. The mold is provided with positioning pins that correspond to the multiple front mounting holes 11. The positioning pins are inserted into the front mounting holes 11 and the rear mounting holes in sequence to achieve the positioning of the mold, the front connecting plate 1 and the rear connecting plate 2.

[0021] like Figures 1 to 4 As shown, multiple front connecting pipes 3 are installed through the front connecting plate 1, and multiple rear connecting pipes 4 are installed through the rear connecting plate 2. The front connecting pipes 3 are double female connectors, and the rear connecting pipes 4 are male and female connectors. The male end of the rear connecting pipe 4 is inserted into the female end of one side of the front connecting pipe 3. The side of the front connecting pipe 3 facing away from the rear connecting pipe 4 is fitted with the front quick connector 5, that is, the other female end of the front connecting pipe 3 is fitted with the front quick connector 5. The front quick connector 5 is used to be inserted into the cooling channel of the mold. The front quick connector 5 can be set as a male and female connector or a double male connector depending on the connection of the cooling channel of the mold. The side of the rear connecting pipe 4 facing away from the front connecting pipe 3 is fitted with the rear quick connector 6, that is, the female end of the rear connecting pipe 4 is fitted with the rear quick connector 6. The rear quick connector 6 is used to be inserted into the external cooling pipe. The rear quick connector can be set as a male and female connector or a double male connector depending on the connection of the external cooling pipe.

[0022] like Figure 1 , Figure 4 and Figure 6As shown, handles 7 are provided on both sides of the front connecting plate 1. Each handle 7 includes a screw 71 and a grip 72. The screw 71 is rotatably connected to the front connecting plate 1, and the grip 72 is threadedly connected to the screw 71. The grip 72 can move along the axial direction of the screw 71 by screwing. Grooves 21 are provided on both sides of the rear connecting plate 2 corresponding to the screw 71. By rotating the screw 71 into the groove 21, the grip 72 moves through the thread of the screw 71 to abut against the rear connecting plate 2, thereby fixing the grip 72 to the rear connecting plate 2 and reinforcing the connection structure between the front connecting plate 1 and the rear connecting plate 2.

[0023] like Figure 1 As shown, the rear connecting plate 2 has multiple side mounting holes 22 on both sides for connecting the mold. The mold is provided with a fixing post for fitting the side mounting holes 22. The connection structure between the rear connecting plate 2 and the mold is strengthened by the fitting structure between the side mounting holes 22 and the fixing post.

[0024] like Figure 1 As shown, two side plates 8 are also connected to the front connecting plate 1. The two side plates 8 are fixed on both sides of the front connecting plate 1 and connected to the rear connecting plate 2. A gap is formed between the front connecting plate 1 and the rear connecting plate 2 due to the connection structure of the front splicing pipe 3 and the rear splicing pipe 4. By setting the two side plates 8, the gap is covered, so that dust does not easily accumulate in the gap.

[0025] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the front connecting plate 1 has multiple front label slots 12 on the side facing away from the rear connecting plate 2, corresponding to multiple front quick plugs 5. The rear connecting plate 2 has multiple rear label slots 13 on the side facing away from the front connecting plate 1, corresponding to multiple rear quick plugs 6. The front label slots 12 and rear label slots 13 are aligned front to back and are used to attach identification labels. Since the pipes of the mold cooling system usually have independent cooling circuits for different areas of the mold (such as cavity, core, slider, etc.), they can be clearly marked by the labels on the water collection plate. When the front connecting plate 1 is connected to the mold, the operator can quickly identify the function of the pipes formed by each front quick plug 5 and rear quick plug 6 through the labels and connect the corresponding external cooling pipes.

[0026] The quick-connect device for mold cooling water channels disclosed in this application, during installation, first inserts the front connecting plate 1 and the rear connecting plate 2 into the front connecting pipe 3 through the rear splicing pipe 4, and inserts bolts to achieve a preliminary connection. Then, inserts the front quick connector 5 into the front splicing pipe 3 and the rear quick connector 6 into the rear splicing pipe 4. After that, the two side plates 8 are fixed between the front connecting plate 1 and the rear connecting plate 2 with screws. Then, rotates the screw 71 to make the screw 71 parallel to the axis of the front mounting hole 11, and screws the handle to make it abut against the rear connecting plate 2, thus completing the mold cooling water channel. After installing the quick-connect device, connect the external cooling pipes to the rear quick-connect plug 6, and then connect the mold. When connecting the mold, the operator can hold the handle and insert the positioning pins on the mold into the front mounting hole 11 and the rear mounting hole in sequence along the axial direction of the front mounting hole 11, and lock them with nuts or other locking devices. At the same time, the front quick-connect plug 5 connects with the connector of the cooling channel of the mold, and the fixing pin on the mold is inserted into the side mounting hole 22. This completes the installation of the mold, quick-connect device and external cooling pipes.

[0027] The above are all preferred embodiments of this application, and are not intended to limit the scope of protection of this application. Therefore, all equivalent changes made in accordance with the structure, shape and principle of this application should be covered within the scope of protection of this application.
