Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of mold technology, specifically relating to a mold with an automatic gate cutting function inside the mold. Background Technology
[0002] Products injection molded using the traditional side-gate method typically require manual gate removal after molding. This process demands significant manpower to cut the gate off the product and then process the removed surface. This production model consumes a large amount of human resources and time, which not only reduces production efficiency and increases production costs, but also leaves unevenly sized scars on the product surface after manual gate removal, affecting aesthetics. Thin-walled products are also prone to deformation, hindering effective control and improvement of product quality.
[0003] Although products injection molded using the traditional submersible gate method can automatically cut off the gate, the quality of the cross-section is directly affected by the size of the gate. The larger the gate, the worse the cross-section quality. A small gate will result in other quality problems such as insufficient glue and shrinkage. Therefore, the traditional submersible gate method is difficult to produce perfect products in actual production, thus limiting its applicability. Utility Model Content

[0027] 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.
[0028] Example
[0029] See Figures 1 to 2 As shown, a mold with an automatic gate cutting function is provided, including a fixed mold base plate 1 and a movable mold base plate 2. A fixed template 3 is fixed on the bottom surface of the fixed mold base plate, a mold foot 4 is fixed on the top surface of the movable mold base plate, and a movable template 5 is fixed on the top of the mold foot. In this embodiment, the fixed mold base plate, the movable mold base plate, the fixed template, and the movable template are all conventional structures in the prior art, and are simply applied, so they are not described in detail.
[0030] In this embodiment, a lifting cavity 6 is provided inside the mold foot, and an ejector plate 8 connected to the injection molding machine ejector rod 7 is provided inside the lifting cavity; in this embodiment, the injection molding machine ejector rod is connected to the injection molding machine, the lifting height of the lifting cavity can be set as needed, and the ejector plate can realize lifting adjustment and control.
[0031] In this embodiment, the fixed mold base plate and the fixed mold plate are provided with a casting runner 9; the top surface of the ejector plate is fixed with a runner ejector pin 10; a mold cavity 11 is provided between the fixed mold plate and the moving mold plate; a gate channel 12 is provided between the casting runner and the mold cavity; and a cutting channel 13 is provided inside the moving mold plate, the cutting channel being located at the connection between the gate channel and the mold cavity; in practical applications, the gate channel is used to connect the casting runner and the mold cavity, and the cutting channel is mainly used to realize the gate cutting operation;
[0032] Furthermore, the ejector plate is equipped with a cutter assembly 14. When the ejector plate rises, it drives the cutter assembly to rise from the cutting channel and cut off the connection between the gate channel and the mold cavity. The runner ejector and the cutter assembly are fixed together on the ejector plate, so they can be raised and lowered synchronously. When the runner is opened, the cutter assembly descends to complete the casting operation. When the ejector plate rises and the runner is closed, the cutter assembly rises to complete the gate cutting operation.
[0033] In this embodiment, the cutting assembly includes a lever 141, a cutting base 142, and a gate cutter 143. During assembly, the bottom end of the lever is positioned within a vertical right-angled trapezoidal guide groove, and the top end of the lever is fixed to the lower part of the cutting base. The bottom of the gate cutter is positioned within an inclined guide groove, and the gate cutter can be raised and lowered within the cutting channel. Both the inclined surface and the vertical section of the vertical right-angled trapezoidal guide groove are provided with T-shaped grooves, and both the inclined surface of the lever and the bottom surface of the gate cutter are provided with T-shaped protrusions. These protrusions are slidably positioned within the grooves. When the lever rises, the inclined surface of the right-angled trapezoidal guide groove causes the cutting base to translate, and when the cutting base translates, the bottom surface of the gate cutter is guided and raised / lowered via the inclined guide groove. The T-shaped grooves and protrusions ensure the stability of the connection, preventing tilting or displacement, thus ensuring a stable and reliable connection.
[0034] Furthermore, the cutting channel includes a lower channel 131 and an upper blade channel 132, the width of which is smaller than the width of the lower channel; the gate cutter includes a lower blade body 1431 of the same size as the lower channel and an upper blade 1432 of the same size as the upper blade channel; the height of the upper blade is greater than the height of the upper blade channel. With this structure, the upper blade can completely cut off the gate, and a seamless connection between the upper blade and the upper blade channel can be ensured.
[0035] Furthermore, in this embodiment, a product ejector pin 15 is fixed to the ejector plate, and the top of the product ejector pin is movable and positioned at the bottom of the mold cavity. A pressure plate 16 is fixed to the top surface of the ejector plate by a screw; and the bottom of the flow channel ejector pin and the cutter assembly are set on the ejector plate and clamped and positioned by the pressure plate. This can improve the stability and reliability of the connection, and the product ejector pin also facilitates the rapid discharge of the product.
[0036] Working Principle: When the product is ejected after injection molding, the injection molding machine's ejector rod acts on the ejector plate, pushing it to move. The ejector plate then transmits power to the push block, runner ejector pins, and pressure plate, causing the push block to move upward. At this time, the T-shaped platform of the push block presses against the T-slot of the cutter base, causing the cutter base to move to the right. Simultaneously, the other T-slot of the cutter base presses against the T-shaped platform of the gate cutter, causing the gate cutter to move upward. Under the upward pressure of the gate cutter, the gate channel separates from the product. When the force-bearing inclined surface of the cutter base completely disengages from the force-bearing inclined surface of the push block, the cutter base stops moving, and the pressure on the gate cutter also stops. During this process, the runner ejector pins simultaneously push the solidified material until it is ejected from the mold. When the ejector plate pushes out to a certain position, the countersunk surface of the ejector plate contacts the boss of the product ejector pin, causing the product ejector pin to move upward and eject the product from the mold.
[0037] This utility model has positive effects: its structure is reasonably designed, with a cutter assembly on the ejector plate and a runner ejector pin fixed on the ejector plate. The ejector plate can drive the runner ejector pin and the cutter assembly to rise and fall synchronously, thereby realizing the synchronous action of pouring the runner and the gate. It can automatically separate the product, eliminating the need for subsequent manual gate removal, effectively reducing labor costs. Moreover, it makes the cut at the gate of the product smooth, flat and beautiful, which is conducive to improving the quality of the product. It is stable and reliable in use and has strong applicability.
[0038] The standard parts used in this embodiment can be purchased directly from the market, and the non-standard structural parts described in the instruction manual can also be processed without any doubt based on existing technical common sense. At the same time, the connection methods of each component adopt mature conventional methods in the existing technology, and the machinery, parts and equipment all adopt conventional models in the existing technology, so they will not be described in detail here.
[0039] Obviously, the above embodiments of this utility model are merely examples for clearly illustrating this utility model, and are not intended to limit the implementation of this utility model. Those skilled in the art can make other variations or modifications based on the above description. It is neither necessary nor possible to exhaustively list all embodiments here. However, these obvious variations or modifications derived from the essential spirit of this utility model still fall within the protection scope of this utility model.
