Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of mold manufacturing technology, specifically to an injection mold with rapid heating and heat preservation functions. Background Technology
[0002] Injection molding is a widely used technology in the production of plastic products. Temperature control of the injection mold has a crucial impact on molding efficiency and product quality, especially for plastics with poor flowability or high temperature requirements. Rapidly and uniformly heating the mold cavity to the required temperature is particularly important. Currently, injection molds typically employ the following two heating methods: (1) Heating is achieved by circulating hot oil or hot water in the flow channel inside the mold. This method has the problems of slow heating and inability to meet higher heating temperatures, resulting in long heating time of the mold and low product molding efficiency. In addition, the mold needs to be designed with a complex flow channel structure, which increases the difficulty and cost of mold manufacturing.
[0003] (2) Heating is achieved by wrapping electric heating wire around the outside of the mold core or embedding it inside the mold core. Although this method improves the heating speed and temperature, its installation structure is usually more complicated, resulting in a larger mold volume and higher cost. At the same time, if the mold's heat insulation measures are not adequate, heat is easily lost, leading to increased energy consumption.
[0004] Therefore, there is an urgent need for an injection mold that can achieve rapid and efficient heating, while also being simple in structure, easy to install, and having good thermal insulation properties. Utility Model Content

[0014] Furthermore, the fixed mold core is provided with an injection port, and a fourth mounting hole is provided on the side of the injection port. A second insert is embedded in the fourth mounting hole, the second insert extends into the injection cavity, and an exhaust channel is formed between the second insert and the fourth mounting hole.
[0015] Furthermore, the fourth mounting hole includes an upper opening and a lower opening, which together form a stepped hole. The upper opening is provided with a foolproof structure.

[0026] Example 1 Cooperate Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, this embodiment discloses an injection mold with rapid heating and heat preservation functions, including a fixed mold assembly 100, a moving mold assembly 200, and a molding insert 300.
[0027] Cooperate Figure 1 , Figures 3 to 6 As shown, the fixed mold assembly 100 includes a fixed mold plate 110, a fixed mold core 120 and a first heating element 130. The fixed mold core 120 is mounted on the fixed mold plate 110 by means of screws or positioning pins, etc. A first mounting hole 121 is provided on the side of the fixed mold core 120, and the first heating element 130 is embedded in the first mounting hole 121.
[0028] The moving mold assembly 200 includes a moving mold plate 210, a moving mold core 220 and a second heating element 230. The moving mold core 220 is disposed on the moving mold plate 210, and a second mounting hole 221 is provided on the side of the moving mold core 220. The second heating element 230 is embedded in the second mounting hole 221.
[0029] The molding insert 300 includes a first insert 310 and a third heating element 320. The first insert 310 is disposed on the side of the fixed mold core 120 and the moving mold core 220. A third mounting hole 311 is provided on the side of the first insert 310, and the third heating element 320 is embedded in the third mounting hole 311. Depending on actual needs, the first insert 310 can be disposed on the moving mold plate 210 or the fixed mold plate 110, and the number and structure of the first insert 310 can be set or selected according to the shape of the product. The first insert 310, together with the fixed mold core 120 and the moving mold core 220, forms the injection molding cavity.
[0030] Driven by the injection molding machine, the moving mold assembly 200 moves toward the fixed mold assembly 100 until the fixed mold core 120 and the moving mold core 220 are tightly closed, forming a closed injection cavity together with the first insert 310. When the first heating element 130, the second heating element 230 and the third heating element 320 work, they quickly generate heat, causing the fixed mold core 120, the moving mold core 220 and the first insert 310 to heat up rapidly, so that the injection cavity can heat up to the preset molding temperature more quickly.
[0031] The number of first mounting holes 121, second mounting holes 221, and third mounting holes 311 is at least two, and the first mounting holes 121, second mounting holes 221, and third mounting holes 311 are elongated holes, respectively arranged around the injection cavity. Each of the first mounting holes 121, second mounting holes 221, and third mounting holes 311 is respectively embedded with a first heating element 130, a second heating element 230, and a third heating element 320. Compared with the design of complex flow channel structures or the winding of heating wires, this method has a simpler structure, is more convenient to install, and reduces the design difficulty and manufacturing cost of the mold. The distance between the first heating element 130 and the inner wall of the fixed mold core 120, the distance between the second heating element 230 and the inner wall of the moving mold core 220, and the distance between the third heating element 320 and the inner wall of the first insert 310 are all not less than 8mm. Preferably, the distance is designed to be 10mm to 15mm. This distance setting can ensure that the heating element effectively heats the injection cavity and ensures rapid temperature rise, and can also effectively avoid overheating of the injection cavity or excessively rapid temperature rise, which may lead to product deformation or cracking.
[0032] In this embodiment, there are two of each of the first mounting hole 121, the second mounting hole 221, and the third mounting hole 311. The first heating element 130, the second heating element 230, and the third heating element 320 are all electric heating rods, which can be purchased as standard industrial parts for assembly and use. The appropriate power is selected according to the heating temperature and heating rate required by the injection molding cavity.
[0033] In this embodiment, the first mounting hole 121 is arranged symmetrically in the horizontal direction, the second mounting hole 221 is arranged symmetrically in the horizontal direction, and the first mounting hole 121 and the second mounting hole 221 are parallel. The third mounting hole 311 is arranged symmetrically in the vertical direction. This design can ensure that heat can be transferred evenly and quickly to the entire injection cavity, avoiding local overheating or uneven heating.
[0034] Example 2 Cooperate Figures 3 to 6 As shown, the difference between this embodiment and Implementation 1 is that: A top bakelite board 140 is provided on the top of the fixed mold core 120, and an upper bakelite board 150 is embedded around the periphery of the fixed mold core 120. The heat insulation properties of the top bakelite board 140 and upper bakelite board 150 effectively reduce heat loss from the top and sides of the fixed mold core 120 to the outside. A lower bakelite board 240 is embedded around the periphery of the moving mold core 220, and a bottom bakelite board 250 is provided at the bottom of the moving mold core 220. The heat insulation properties of the bottom bakelite board 250 and lower bakelite board 240 effectively reduce heat loss from the bottom and sides of both the fixed and moving mold cores to the outside. By providing bakelite boards around the periphery and top of the fixed mold core 120, and embedding them around the periphery and bottom of the moving mold core 220, a comprehensive insulation layer is constructed using the heat insulation properties of the bakelite boards, significantly reducing heat loss from both the fixed mold core 120 and the moving mold core 220 to the external environment, thus achieving the functions of heat preservation and energy reduction.
[0035] The upper bakelite board 150 is flush with the peripheral surface of the fixed mold core 120; the top bakelite board 140 is flush with the edges of the upper bakelite board 150 and the fixed mold core 120; the lower bakelite board 240 is flush with the peripheral surface of the moving mold core 220; and the bottom bakelite board 250 is flush with the edges of the lower bakelite board 240 and the moving mold core 220. This flush design ensures the flatness of the mold's mating surfaces and does not affect the normal opening, closing, and sealing of the mold.
[0036] The fixed mold core 120 has several upper grooves 122 on its periphery, and the upper bakelite board 150 is embedded in the upper grooves 122. The moving mold core 220 has several lower grooves 222 on its periphery, and the lower bakelite board 240 is embedded in the lower grooves 222 (the bakelite board and the grooves can be installed by interference fit, or by applying glue and then tightly embedding them). The upper bakelite board 150 and the lower bakelite board 240 are embedded in the periphery of the mold core, which is not only convenient and reliable to install, but also integrates the bakelite board with the mold core as a whole, without increasing the overall size of the mold, thus achieving a unity of heat insulation function and structural compactness.
[0037] Example 3 Cooperate Figures 5 to 8 As shown, the difference between this embodiment and Implementation 1 is that: The fixed mold core 120 is provided with an injection port 123, which is connected to the injection cavity for injecting molten plastic. A fourth mounting hole 124 is provided on the side of the injection port 123. A second insert 400 is embedded in the fourth mounting hole 124. The second insert 400 extends into the injection cavity, and an exhaust channel 430 is formed between the second insert 400 and the fourth mounting hole 124. Compared with the integral molding part at the bottom of the fixed mold core 120, this design can timely exhaust the gas in the injection cavity, prevent injection defects caused by gas retention, ensure that the molten plastic fills the injection cavity smoothly, and thus improve the molding quality of the product.
[0038] The fourth mounting hole 124 includes an upper opening 1241 and a lower opening 1242, which together form a stepped hole. The upper opening 1241 is equipped with a foolproof structure. The second insert 400 includes a body 410 and a mounting portion 420 disposed on the upper end of the body 410. The body 410 is movably inserted into the lower opening 1242, and the mounting portion 420 is confined to the upper opening 1241 and is adapted to the shape of the upper opening 1241. In this embodiment, after the body 410 is inserted into the lower opening 1242, there is a small gap between them, forming an exhaust channel to discharge gas from the injection molding cavity. The size of the mounting portion 420 is slightly smaller than that of the upper opening 1241, and it is fixed to the upper opening 1241 by means of adhesive, welding, etc. The fourth mounting hole 124 adopts the above-mentioned stepped hole structure, which facilitates the positioning and installation of the second insert 400.
[0039] In this embodiment, the lower opening 1242 has a circular cross-sectional shape, while the upper opening 1241's anti-mistake structure can have any shape other than a circle. A circular chamfered hole is preferred, as it is a simple and effective anti-mistake structure that is easy to manufacture. Furthermore, it should be noted that the anti-mistake structure can also be located at the lower opening 1242, as long as it facilitates the positioning and assembly of the second insert 400. This embodiment does not impose any restrictions on this. By setting the lower opening 1242 to a circular shape and providing an anti-mistake structure at the upper opening 1241 that is compatible with the mounting portion 420, the positioning and assembly of the second insert 400 are facilitated, improving assembly efficiency.
[0040] This invention integrates the heating element directly into the mold core and insert, enabling rapid heating of the injection cavity and achieving higher temperatures. Compared to traditional mold heating methods, this significantly improves heating efficiency, saves molding time, and shortens the production cycle. The embedded bakelite board forms a comprehensive heat insulation layer, effectively reducing heat loss and saving energy while maintaining a compact structure, achieving excellent heat insulation. Furthermore, the insert integrated into the fixed mold core allows for timely venting of gas from the injection cavity, preventing injection defects caused by gas retention and improving product molding quality. The stepped holes and foolproof structure facilitate easy installation and fixation of the insert. Therefore, this invention has a reasonable overall structure and significantly improves injection molding efficiency and product quality.
[0041] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of this utility model, but the protection scope of this utility model is not limited thereto. Any variations or substitutions that can be easily conceived by those skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed in this utility model should be included within the protection scope of this utility model. Therefore, the protection scope of this utility model should be determined by the scope of the claims.
