Composite and metal integrated forming tooling

Abstract

This utility model discloses a tooling mold for integral molding of composite materials and metals, including a base, a lower mold base, and a guide assembly disposed on one side of the base. The guide assembly consists of a bracket and a pair of guide plates. The bracket is slidably installed on one side of the base via an elastic member, so that the guide plates can be reset and moved away from the lower mold base when the external force is removed. This utility model replaces manual clamping with the bracket and guide plates for material loading, effectively improving loading efficiency and positioning accuracy. After the material plate is transferred, the spring automatically releases its elastic potential energy to drive the guide plates to quickly reset, allowing them to promptly leave the working area of ​​the lower mold base and avoid interfering with the material plate forming operation. This ensures the safety and continuity of the mold stamping process, and the structure is simple and easy to operate, improving work efficiency while effectively controlling input costs.

Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of tooling and mold technology, specifically to tooling and molds for integral molding of composite materials and metals. Background Technology

[0002] In modern industrial manufacturing, traditional single-material molds have many limitations in stamping processes. While metal molds possess high strength and good thermal conductivity, they suffer from problems such as heavy weight, high cost, and susceptibility to corrosion. Composite material molds, although lightweight and possessing a certain degree of corrosion resistance, struggle to meet the rigidity requirements of complex stamping conditions. Adopting integrated molds combining composite materials and metal can fully leverage the high strength and wear resistance of metals, ensuring the structural stability and service life of the mold during the stamping process. Simultaneously, the advantages of composite materials—lightweight, corrosion-resistant, and highly formable—can reduce the overall weight of the mold and lower the operating load on the equipment.

[0003] Conventional tooling molds have relatively limited functions. Manual loading requires the use of clamps, necessitating frequent hand insertion into the mold's working area, posing serious safety hazards. Furthermore, existing mold structures often employ rigid, fixed guide components that cannot automatically avoid the forming area after the material plate has been transferred. This not only interferes with the mold stamping process and reduces production continuity but also necessitates the design of complex avoidance mechanisms, resulting in complex mold structures, high manufacturing costs, and significant maintenance difficulties. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide a tooling mold for integral molding of composite materials and metals, so as to solve the problem of the single function of the guide component of traditional molds mentioned in the background art.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a tooling mold for integral molding of composite materials and metal, including a base, a lower mold base, and a guide assembly disposed on one side of the base. The guide assembly is composed of a bracket and a pair of guide plates. The bracket is slidably installed on one side of the base through an elastic member, so that the guide plates are reset by the elastic member and move away from the upper part of the lower mold base when the external force is lost. Preferably, a pair of positioning rods are fixedly installed on the side wall of the base, the bracket is slidably installed on the pair of positioning rods, and the elastic member is a spring sleeved on the positioning rods, with the two ends of the spring contacting the base and the bracket respectively. Preferably, adjusting feet are screwed to both ends of the bracket. Preferably, the top of the guide plate extends obliquely along the main body to above the lower mold base, and the side wall of the guide plate is integrally formed with a vertical lug. Preferably, the guide plate is fixedly installed on one side of the bracket by bolts, and the bracket is provided with sliding holes for accommodating the bolts. Preferably, a handle is fixedly installed at the center of the bracket.

[0006] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are: This invention replaces manual clamping with a bracket and guide plate for material feeding, effectively improving feeding efficiency and positioning accuracy. After the material plate is transferred, the spring automatically releases its elastic potential energy to drive the guide plate to quickly reset, allowing it to promptly detach from the working area of ​​the lower die base, thus avoiding interference with the material plate forming operation. This ensures the safety and continuity of the die stamping process, and the structure is simple and easy to operate, improving work efficiency while effectively controlling investment costs.

[0009] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0010] Please see Figures 1-4This utility model provides a technical solution: a tooling mold for integral molding of composite materials and metal, including a base 1, a lower mold base 2, and a guide assembly located on one side of the base 1. The guide assembly is composed of a bracket 4 and a pair of guide plates 6. A handle 8 is fixedly installed at the center of the bracket 4 for easy gripping and pushing the bracket 4. The top of the guide plate 6 extends obliquely along the main body to above the lower mold base 2. The side wall of the guide plate 6 is integrally formed with a vertical lug 7. The oblique structure of the guide plate 6 forms a channel for conveying the material plate. The vertical lug 7 on the side is used to constrain the material plate in the horizontal direction. The guide plate 6 is fixedly installed on one side of the bracket 4 by bolts. The bracket 4 is provided with a sliding hole 10 for accommodating the bolts. The advantage of this setting is that the spacing between the pair of guide plates 6 can be adjusted according to different types of lower mold bases 2 or the specifications of the material plate to be processed. The bracket 4 is slidably installed on one side of the base 1 by an elastic member so that the guide plate 6 can be reset by the elastic member and move away from the lower mold base 2 when the external force is lost.

[0011] A pair of positioning rods 3 are fixedly installed on the side wall of the base 1, and the bracket 4 is slidably installed on the pair of positioning rods 3. The elastic component is a spring 5 sleeved on the positioning rods 3. The two ends of the spring 5 are in contact with the base 1 and the bracket 4 respectively. Adjusting pads 9 are screwed to the two ends of the bracket 4 respectively. The advantage of this setting is that it is convenient to adjust the sliding distance of the guide plate 6 according to the material plate of different specifications.

[0012] By pushing the handle 8, the bracket 4 is slid to the end of the guide plate 6 above the lower mold base 2. Then, the material plate is placed on the inclined section of the pair of guide plates 6. When the material plate moves above the lower mold base 2 through the guide plates 6, the bracket 4 is released. The spring 5 releases its own elastic potential energy to drive the guide plates 6 to reset and move away from the lower mold base 2, without affecting the material plate forming operation.

[0013] By using bracket 4 and guide plate 6 in conjunction with manual clamping, the material feeding efficiency and positioning accuracy are effectively improved. After the material plate is transferred, spring 5 automatically releases its elastic potential energy to drive guide plate 6 to quickly reset, so that it can be removed from the working area of ​​lower die base 2 in time, avoiding interference with the material plate forming operation. This ensures the safety and continuity of the die stamping process, and the structure is simple and easy to operate, improving work efficiency while effectively controlling input costs.
