[0018] like Figure 1 As shown, this embodiment provides a device for bulging the key positions of a household appliance panel with film coating. It includes a frame 1, an upper pressure plate 2 and a lower pressure plate 3 mounted on the frame 1, a drive cylinder 4 mounted on the upper end of the frame 1, and the output end of the drive cylinder 4 connected to the upper pressure plate 2. The upper pressure plate 2 and the lower pressure plate 3 are respectively provided with an upper template 5 and a lower template 6, and the upper template 5 and the lower template 6 are respectively provided with forming grooves and forming protrusions. The drive cylinder 4 drives the upper pressure plate 2 to move downward, so that the upper template 5 and the lower template 6 close, and pressurize and bulge the film in the middle.

[0019] like Figure 2 , Figure 3As shown, installation mechanisms are provided between the upper pressure plate 2 and the upper template 5, and between the lower pressure plate 3 and the lower template 6. These mechanisms are used for the quick installation of the upper template 5 and the lower template 6. Each installation mechanism includes an installation groove 7 formed on the upper pressure plate 2 and the lower pressure plate 3. The upper template 5 and the lower template 6 are respectively installed in their corresponding installation grooves 7. A retrieval groove is provided on the side of the installation groove 7 to facilitate the removal of the upper template 5 and the lower template 6 from the installation groove 7. A limiting block 11 is installed at the upper end of one side of the installation groove 7. A corresponding snap-fit ​​block 12 is connected to the lower end of one side of the upper template 5 and the lower template 6. The limiting block 11 and the snap-fit ​​block 12 are compatible, forming a slot between the limiting block 11 and the bottom of the installation groove 7. After the lower template 6 is installed in the installation groove 7, the snap-fit ​​block 12 snaps into the slot. The limiting block 11 limits the snap-fit ​​block 12, thus fixing one end of the lower template 6. On the other side of the mounting slot 7, a through slot 8 is provided, in which a pin 9 is slidably installed. On the other side of the upper template 5 and the lower template 6, a slot 10 is provided, and the pin 9 is adapted to the slot 10. The end of the pin 9 extends to one side of the upper pressure plate 2 and the lower pressure plate 3. A return spring 13 is connected between the end of the pin 9 and the side of the upper pressure plate 2 and the lower pressure plate 3. Magnetic blocks are provided correspondingly on the end of the pin 9 and the side of the upper pressure plate 2 and the lower pressure plate 3. When the pin 9 locks the upper template 5 and the lower template 6, the magnetic blocks attract each other, further ensuring the stability of the pin 9, thereby ensuring the stability of locking the upper template 5 and the lower template 6. After the lower template 6 is engaged in the mounting groove 7, release the pin 9 so that the pin 9 extends into the mounting groove 7 and is inserted into the slot 10 by the action of the return spring 13, thus fixing one end of the lower template 6. The two ends of the lower template 6 are respectively fixed by the limit block 11 and the pin 9. When disassembling, pull the pin 9 to pull it out of the slot 10, release the limit on one end of the lower template 6, and then directly remove the lower template 6 from the mounting groove 7.

[0020] The lower pressure plate 3 is equipped with a pressing mechanism on both sides, which positions and flattens the conveyed material. The pressing mechanism includes two sets of pressing plates 14. The surface of the lower pressure plate 3 is provided with a sliding groove 15. The lower end of the pressing plate 14 is slidably disposed in the sliding groove 15. A bidirectional screw 16 is rotatably installed in the sliding groove 15. The two sets of pressing plates 14 are respectively threaded to both ends of the bidirectional screw 16. One end of the bidirectional screw 16 passes through the sliding groove 15 and is fixedly connected to a handle. By driving the bidirectional screw 16 to rotate through the handle, the pressing plate 14 slides in the sliding groove 15 toward the lower template 6 in the middle. The pressing plate 14 is 7-shaped.

[0021] like Figure 4 As shown, the upper pressure plate 2 and the upper template 5 have corresponding pressure plates 14 with guide grooves 19. As the upper pressure plate 2 and the lower pressure plate 3 gradually approach each other, the pressure plates 14 extend into the guide grooves 19 to play a guiding role and ensure the alignment between the upper pressure plate 2 and the lower pressure plate 3.

[0022] During processing, the film is released from the take-up roller on one side of the frame 1 and conveyed through the frame 1 to the other side. The film is adhered to the lower template 6. The bidirectional screw 16 is rotated to drive the pressure plate 14 to limit the film on the lower template 6. When the film passes through the lower template 6, the pressure plate 14 flattens the film. The drive cylinder 4 drives the upper pressure plate 2 and the upper template 5 to move down. The pressure plate 14, in conjunction with the guide groove 19, guides the upper pressure plate 2 and the lower pressure plate 3 to ensure the accuracy of pressure forming. The upper template 5 and the lower template 6 close to pressurize and bulge the bonding mold. Through the continuous conveying of the film, the drive cylinder 4 drives the upper template 5 to move up and down back and forth, realizing continuous bulging operation of the film and improving production efficiency. When it is necessary to replace the upper template 5 and the lower template 6, simply pull out the pin 9, remove the upper template 5 and the lower template 6 from the mounting slot 7, then snap the new upper template 5 and the lower template 6 into the mounting slot 7, and loosen the pin 9 to insert it into the slot 10, thereby completing the installation of the upper template 5 and the lower template 6, which greatly improves the convenience of operation.
