Detailed Implementation 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.

[0013] Please see Figure 1-8 This utility model provides an embodiment of a mechanism for injection molding of wire harness connectors, comprising a slide-type injection molding machine 8, a lifting assembly 1, and a belt conveyor assembly 2. The slide-type injection molding machine 8 is a vertical single-slide-type injection molding machine, in which half of the mold can slide out of the mounting base and then slide back for injection molding. Multiple sets of belt conveyor assemblies 2 are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the slide-type injection molding machine 8. The belt conveyor assemblies 2 are divided into upper and lower layers, connected by the lifting assembly 1. A wire transport assembly 3 is provided between the lifting assembly 1 and the belt conveyor assemblies 2, and the wire transport assembly 3 is used to span between the lifting assembly 1 and the belt conveyor assemblies 2. The line conveying assembly 3 is divided into left conveying 31 and right conveying 32. A lifting and positioning assembly 7 is installed on the outside of the blocking assembly 5. The blocking assembly 5 is fixed at a distance of about one seat from the junction of the lifting assembly 1 and the belt conveyor assembly 2. The blocking assembly 5 is located below the belt at the belt conveyor assembly 2. It is composed of a lifting cylinder and is raised when needed, so that its head is exposed above the belt and blocks the seat 6. There is one blocking assembly 5 at the belt conveyor assembly 2 at the loading point, one on each side near the slide injection molding machine 8, and one at the unloading point. The lifting and positioning assembly 7 is installed below the belt conveyor assembly 2 next to the blocking assembly 5. This device, through the installation of belt conveyor component 2 and lifting and positioning component 7, solves the problems of easy damage to wire harnesses during transportation, and the significant safety hazards, low efficiency, and potential accidents that occur during manual feeding under the harsh conditions of high pressure and high temperature of injection molding machines.

[0014] Furthermore, a carrier 6 is installed at the inlet of the belt conveyor assembly 2. The carrier 6 has clamps for fixing the wire harness, with springs maintaining the clamping force. A blocking assembly 5 is installed at the front end of the carrier 6. The lifting and positioning assembly 7 consists of a lifting cylinder 71, a lifting cylinder 72, a push block 73, and a stop block 74. The lifting cylinder 71 and lifting cylinder 72 are installed at the bottom of the carrier 6. A push block 73 is connected to the other side of the belt conveyor assembly 2. A stop block 74 is connected to the top of the carrier 6. A push rod is installed on the top of the lifting cylinder 71, located below the clamps. A support plate is installed on the top of the lifting cylinder 72. Figure 4 As shown, the structure is provided with a lifting and positioning component 7 below the feed port and the belt conveyor component 2 of the feed port, respectively. When lifting, the carrier 6 is lifted up, the stop block 74 is above the carrier 6, which is used to limit the lifting position of the lifting cylinder 72 and clamp the carrier 6, and the push block 73 is used to push the carrier 6 to the same position.

[0015] Furthermore, a carrier transport assembly 4 is installed above the slide injection molding machine 8. The carrier transport assembly 4 consists of an upper carrier module 41, a lower carrier module 42, an auxiliary suction cup 43, and a sprue clamp 44. The auxiliary suction cup 43 is connected to the bottom of the upper carrier module 41, and the sprue clamp 44 is connected to the bottom of the lower carrier module 42. A slide table 81 and a sprue collection funnel 82 are connected in the middle of the two belt conveyor assemblies 2. The carrier transport assembly 4 is similar to the line transport assembly 3, with the biggest difference being that the parallel gripper cylinder 304 on the slide table cylinder 303 is replaced with a cylinder MHL2-20D2Z-M9NL with a larger opening angle, and the gripper is customized according to the carrier 6. The entire carrier transport assembly 4 spans across the slide injection molding machine 8. Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, this structure is used to pick up the carrier 6 next to the slide table 81 and transport it to the slide table 81 via the upper carrier module 41 of the carrier transport assembly 4. Then the slide table 81 slides into the injection molding machine. After the injection molding is completed, the slide table 81 slides out. The lower carrier module 42 picks up the carrier 6 and transports it to the sprue collection funnel 82. The sprue clamp 44 of the lower carrier module 42 picks up the sprue residue after injection molding and throws it into the sprue collection funnel 82. Then it continues to pass through the unloading and lifting module to reach the lower conveyor belt, and then returns to the original lifting assembly 1.

[0016] Furthermore, the left transport module 31 and the right transport module 32 are composed of left and right linear modules 301, lifting linear modules 302, slide cylinders 303, parallel gripper cylinders 304, and grippers 305. Each component has a clear function and works together efficiently. The left and right linear modules 301 are responsible for achieving precise horizontal movement, the lifting linear modules 302 complete the vertical lifting action, the slide cylinders 303 can finely adjust the front and rear positions to ensure alignment with the target, and the parallel gripper cylinders 304 drive the grippers 305. The opening and closing mechanism enables stable gripping of the wire harness. The gripper 305 is made of wear-resistant and non-slip material to accommodate different wire harness specifications. The wire handling assembly 3 has one at the loading point and one at the unloading point of the belt conveyor assembly 2. A lifting linear module 302 is installed on the outside of the left and right linear modules 301. A slide cylinder 303 is installed at the bottom of the lifting linear module 302, and a parallel gripper cylinder 304 is installed at the bottom of the slide cylinder 303. The output end of the parallel gripper cylinder 304 is connected to the gripper 305. For example... Figure 7 As shown, the coordinated operation of this structure is clear. When the wire harness is transported to the area below the wire handling assembly 3, the left and right linear modules 301 first move the left handling 31 and right handling 32 synchronously to directly above the wire harness. Then, the lifting linear module 302 drives the lower assembly to descend vertically. The slide cylinder 303 finely adjusts the position so that the gripper 305 aligns with the wire harness, and the parallel gripper cylinder 304 drives the gripper 305 to clamp the wire harness. Next, the lifting linear module 302 rises, and the left and right linear modules 301 move synchronously to the right to transport the wire harness to the area above the carrier 6. Then, the lifting linear module 302 descends to precisely place the wire harness at the designated position on the carrier 6 according to a preset pattern. This design has significant technical advantages. The multi-component collaboration achieves high-precision positioning for wire harness handling, the synchronous operation of left and right handling greatly improves handling efficiency, the modular design of each component facilitates maintenance and replacement, and it adapts to the gripping needs of various wire harness specifications, effectively enhancing the versatility and flexibility of the equipment.

[0017] Furthermore, the lifting assembly 1 consists of a vertical linear module 101 and a belt assembly 102. Each component has a clearly defined function. The vertical linear module 101 is responsible for precise vertical displacement control and can stably drive the belt assembly 102 to switch between upper and lower positions. The belt assembly 102 undertakes the horizontal conveying task of the carrier, ensuring that the carrier can smoothly transfer to the corresponding layer's belt conveyor assembly after being raised and lowered to the correct position. The vertical linear module 101 and the belt assembly 102 are each driven by an independent motor. The lifting assembly 1 has one unit each at the loading and unloading points of the belt conveyor assembly 2. Figure 8As shown, the collaborative working principle of this structure is clear. When the carrier is conveyed from the lower belt conveyor assembly to the lifting assembly, the motor at the vertical linear module 101 drives the belt assembly 102 to rise to the same height as the upper belt conveyor assembly. Then, the motor at the belt assembly 102 drives the belt to rotate, conveying the carrier to the upper belt conveyor assembly. Conversely, if the carrier needs to be transferred from the upper to the lower layer, the vertical linear module 101 drives the belt assembly 102 to descend to the lower layer height, and then the belt assembly 102 completes the horizontal conveying. The technical advantages of this design are significant. The independent motor drive ensures precise synchronization of lifting and conveying actions. The lifting assembly at each loading and unloading point greatly improves the carrier's turnover efficiency. The modular component structure facilitates later maintenance and component replacement, effectively enhancing the equipment's operational stability and service life.

[0018] Furthermore, the upper layer of the belt conveyor assembly 2 has a section from the loading point to the slide plate injection molding machine 8, and the slide plate injection molding machine 8 has one end to the unloading point; the lower layer of the belt conveyor assembly 2 continues from the loading point to the unloading point. For example... Figure 1 As shown, this structure is used to complete the loading and unloading steps by cooperating with multiple sets of belt conveyor components 2.

[0019] Working principle: When using, such as Figure 1 and Figure 4 As shown, the lifting assembly 1 raises the carrier 6, which is transported back from the lower belt conveyor assembly 2, to the same level as the upper belt conveyor assembly 2. It then moves forward with the belt conveyor assembly 2 until it is stopped by the blocking assembly 5. Subsequently, the lifting cylinder 72 of the lifting and positioning assembly 7 lifts the carrier 6, and the stop block 74 clamps the carrier 6. The push block 73 pushes the carrier 6 to the positioning position, and then the lifting cylinder 71 opens the fixing clamp, bringing the carrier 6 to the pre-installed wire state. When the wire harness is transported to below the wire handling assembly 3, the left handling 31 and right handling 32 simultaneously move to the right, clamping and transporting the wire harness to the carrier 6, arranging it according to a certain pattern. Then, the blocking assembly 5 and the lifting and positioning assembly 7 release the carrier 6, which is then transported by the belt conveyor assembly 2 to the slide plate injection molding stage. Next to the slide table 81 at machine 8, the upper carrier module 41 of the carrier transport assembly 4 picks up the carrier 6 next to the slide table 81 and transports it to the slide table 81. Then the slide table 81 slides into the injection molding machine. After the injection is completed, the slide table 81 slides out. The lower carrier module 42 picks up the carrier 6 and transports it to the sprue collection funnel 82. The sprue clamp 44 of the lower carrier module 42 picks up the sprue residue after injection and throws it into the sprue collection funnel 82. Then it continues to pass through the unloading and lifting module to reach the lower conveyor belt, and then returns to the original lifting assembly 1. The above is only the process of a single carrier 6. This mechanism allows multiple carriers to work in cycles. This is the complete process of the mechanism. The above is the entire working principle of this utility model.
