Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of cold heading forming mold technology, specifically a precision cold heading forming mold for titanium bolt heads. Background Technology

[0002] Titanium bolts are typically formed using a five-station continuous cold forging structure, sequentially completing head upsetting, dome forming, hexagonal face forming, flange precision upsetting, and shank sizing. Therefore, five sets of molds need to operate simultaneously, and continuous cold forging is achieved by using a robotic arm to clamp and switch positions of the raw material. During the hexagonal face forming process, excess waste material also needs to be removed during the cold forging of the bolt head using the mold. Existing molds are not convenient for lubrication and cooling during punching, which affects the processing quality. Therefore, this application proposes a precision cold forging mold for titanium bolt heads. Utility Model Content

[0004] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a precision cold heading forming mold for titanium bolt heads, comprising a lower mold assembly and an upper mold assembly. The lower mold assembly consists of a lower mold support base, a lower mold body, and a push rod. The lower mold body is embedded in the top end of the lower mold support base. The push rod slides through the lower mold support base and the lower mold body. The bottom end of the push rod is connected to the ejector cylinder on the cold heading machine. The upper mold assembly consists of an upper mold support base, an upper mold body, and a sealing component. The upper mold support base is connected to a hydraulic press on the cold heading machine. The upper mold body is embedded in the bottom end of the upper mold support base. The sealing component is installed inside the upper mold support base and penetrates through the upper mold body.

[0005] The sealing assembly consists of a positioning support plate, a sealing plate, a lifting limit rod, a limit plate, and a spring. The positioning support plate is welded to the inside of the upper mold support base and has several drainage holes. The lifting limit rod slides through the middle of the positioning support plate.

[0018] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of the present utility model.

All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of the present utility model without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0019] Depend on Figures 1 to 4 This invention discloses a precision cold heading die for titanium bolt heads, comprising a lower die assembly 1 and an upper die assembly 2. The lower die assembly 1 consists of a lower die support 3, a lower die body 4, and a push rod 5. The lower die body 4 is embedded at its top end inside the lower die support 3. The push rod 5 slides through the lower die support 3 and the lower die body 4, and its bottom end is connected to an ejector cylinder 6 on a cold heading machine. The upper die assembly 2 consists of an upper die support 7, an upper die body 8, and a sealing assembly 9. The upper die support 7 is connected to a hydraulic press 10 on a cold heading machine. The upper die body 8 is embedded at its bottom end inside the upper die support 7. The sealing assembly 9 is installed inside the upper die support 7 and passes through the upper die body 8. The sealing assembly 9 consists of a positioning support plate 11, a sealing plate 12, a lifting limit rod 13, a limit plate 14, and a spring 1. The upper mold support base 7 is composed of five parts: a positioning support plate 11 welded to the inside of the upper mold support base 7; a plurality of drainage holes 16 are provided on the positioning support plate 11; a lifting limit rod 13 is slidably inserted in the middle position of the positioning support plate 11; a sealing plate 12 is located at the top of the positioning support plate 11 and is fixedly connected to the lifting limit rod 13; a limit plate 14 is sleeved on the lifting limit rod 13 and is fixedly connected to the lifting limit rod 13; a spring 15 is sleeved on the lifting limit rod 13 and is located between the positioning support plate 11 and the limit plate 14; an O-ring 17 is provided on the side of the bottom end of the sealing plate 12; an inner cavity 19 is provided inside the upper mold support base 7; the inner cavity 19 is filled with cutting fluid; a connector 20 communicating with the inner cavity 19 is fixedly provided at the top of one side of the upper mold support base 7; and a liquid supply hose 21 is provided at the other end of the connector 20.

[0020] When in use, the mold is installed inside the cold heading machine. When the screw head is hexagonally shaped, the raw material is clamped by the robot arm of the cold heading machine and moved. The raw material moves to the center position of the top of the lower mold body 4, the upper mold assembly 2 presses down, and the upper mold body 8 shapes the hexagonal surface of the raw material head. At the same time, the punching force is used to remove the excess material. During this process, the bottom end of the lifting limit rod 13 contacts the top surface of the raw material and moves upward under the upward pushing force. The lifting limit rod 13 drives the sealing plate 12 to move upward, so that the drain hole 16 is exposed, so that the cutting fluid inside the inner cavity 19 is discharged through the drain hole 16. The cutting fluid achieves cooling and lubrication, improving the processing quality. After processing, the spring 15 can drive the sealing plate 12 and the lifting limit rod 13 to reset. The connector 20 and the supply hose 21 can continuously supply cutting fluid. The other end of the supply hose 21 can be connected to the supply pump.

[0021] Both the lower die support base 3 and the lower die body 4 have a central hole 18 that is slidably connected to the ejector rod 5 at their center positions. The side of the top of the lower die support base 3 has a chamfered structure. The central hole 18 facilitates the positioning and placement of the raw material. After processing, the raw material can be ejected upwards by the ejector rod 5. During the punching process, an inner hexagonal ring-shaped waste material will be formed. When the robot arm drives the screw to move laterally to the next station, the distance between the bottom surface of the screw and the lower die body 4 is controlled so that the distance is less than the thickness of the waste material. Thus, when the screw moves laterally, it can directly drive the waste material to move laterally, so that the waste material falls automatically under gravity. The side of the top of the lower die support base 3 has a chamfered structure, which makes it easier for the waste material to slide down along the inclined side.

[0022] In operation, by setting up a lower mold assembly consisting of a lower mold support base, a lower mold body, and an ejector pin, and an upper mold assembly consisting of an upper mold support base, an upper mold body, and a sealing component, hexagonal face forming of bolt heads can be achieved. By setting up a sealing component consisting of a positioning support plate, a sealing plate, a lifting limit rod, a limit plate, and a spring, and by filling the inner cavity with cutting fluid, the cutting fluid can be automatically released during the forming process, using the cutting fluid for lubrication and cooling, thereby improving processing quality. By setting the side of the top of the lower mold support base to have a chamfered structure, it is easy to unload the waste material after punching. When the five-station robot moves the screw laterally, the screw moves the waste material laterally, thereby achieving automatic unloading without the need for additional auxiliary unloading mechanisms.
