Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of precision mold processing equipment technology, and in particular to a stamping die for forming a QSFP port metal housing. Background Technology

[0002] As a key precision component in high-speed communication equipment, the metal housing of QSFP ports directly affects the stability of signal transmission and the shielding effect. Currently, it is mainly manufactured in batches using stamping dies. During the stamping process, due to the shearing and deformation of the metal sheet, a large amount of metal debris and fine powder are inevitably generated. These wastes often adhere to the mold cavity, cutting edge, or base surface.

[0003] However, existing stamping die designs are typically simple, lacking supporting automated cleaning and collection systems. In actual production, cleaning often relies on manual methods such as blowing with air guns or scraping with tools. This method is not only labor-intensive and inefficient, causing production interruptions, but also fails to thoroughly remove fine debris from the die crevices. If debris is not cleaned promptly or thoroughly, it can easily cause "chipping," resulting in quality defects such as pits and scratches on the surface of the stamped parts. In severe cases, accumulated hard metal debris can jam the die, break the die cutting edge, and cause damage to expensive precision dies. Furthermore, existing cleaning methods usually blow waste liquid and debris directly around the worktable, lacking centralized diversion and solid-liquid separation devices, resulting in a dirty and messy workshop environment, and the cleaning fluid or coolant used in stamping cannot be recycled, causing resource waste.

[0004] Therefore, this utility model proposes a stamping die for forming the metal housing of a QSFP port to overcome the shortcomings of the prior art. Utility Model Content

[0005] In view of the problems existing in the QSFP port metal shell forming stamping die, such as the main reliance on manual cleaning of die debris, low efficiency and easy creation of cleaning dead corners, and the lack of effective diversion, collection and solid-liquid separation mechanism for waste liquid and debris generated during stamping, resulting in working environment pollution and resource waste, this utility model aims to provide a QSFP port metal shell forming stamping die with improved structure that can effectively solve the above problems.

[0006] This utility model provides a stamping die for forming a metal housing for a QSFP port, comprising: a cabinet, a support column and a base fixedly connected to the top of the cabinet, a driver fixedly installed on the support column, and a lower die fixedly installed on the top of the base; the output end of the driver is fixedly connected to an upper die by bolts, the upper die being located directly above the lower die; and a cleaning component and a collection component.

A spray nozzle is fixedly connected to the side of the support column near the mold. A water pipe connects the water tank and the spray nozzle. An inflow groove is provided on the top of the cabinet and around the base. A drain trough is provided at the bottom of the inflow groove and connects to the inside of the cabinet.

[0008] Furthermore, the collection assembly has sliding grooves on both sides of the inner wall of the cabinet, and a collection cabinet that slides within the sliding grooves, the collection cabinet being located directly below the drain trough; the top of the inner wall of the collection cabinet has support grooves around its perimeter, and a filter plate with filter holes distributed on its surface is engaged within the support grooves, the filter plate horizontally covering the internal cavity of the collection cabinet; the sliding grooves, the collection cabinet, and the cabinet body are combined by a sliding fit, allowing the collection cabinet to perform reciprocating linear motion inside the cabinet body.

[0009] Preferably, a buffer is also fixedly installed between the bottom output end of the driver and the upper mold, and the top of the upper mold is fixedly connected to the bottom of the buffer. The buffer is used to absorb the impact force when the driver presses down and protect the mold structure.

[0010] Preferably, the nozzle has a universal joint interface at its bottom end, and the nozzle is rotatably connected to the support column through the universal joint interface. The nozzle can adjust the spray angle through the universal joint interface, thereby achieving flexible multi-angle scouring of the mold area.

[0011] Preferably, the inflow channel has a funnel-shaped structure that slopes from the outside to the inside, and the drainage channel is located at the lowest end of the inflow channel. The inflow channel is used to quickly guide liquids and debris to the drainage channel by gravity.

[0012] Preferably, the outer walls on both sides of the collection cabinet are fixedly provided with protruding plates that match the slide groove. The collection cabinet slides linearly with the cabinet body along the length of the slide groove through the protruding plates to ensure the stability of the pull-out process.

[0013] Preferably, the groove is a recessed structure, and its length and width dimensions are adapted to the edge dimensions of the filter plate, so that the filter plate can be removed from the collection cabinet for easy cleaning of solid debris trapped on the plate surface.

[0014] Preferably, a handle is fixedly installed on the outer wall of the collection cabinet away from the interior of the cabinet. The handle is used to drive the collection cabinet to be pulled out or pushed in along the slide, which facilitates manual operation.

[0015] Preferably, a water pump is fixedly installed inside the water tank. The output end of the water pump is connected to one end of the water pipe, and the other end of the water pipe is connected to the nozzle. The water pump is used to provide power for conveying the cleaning fluid.

[0016] This utility model has the following beneficial effects: 1. This utility model, by setting up a cleaning component consisting of a nozzle with a universal joint interface, a water pump, and a water tank, uses the pressure provided by the water pump to deliver the cleaning fluid to the nozzle, and flexibly adjusts the spray angle through the universal joint interface.

A buffer 4 is also fixedly installed between the bottom output end of the driver 3 and the upper die 5. The top of the upper die 5 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the buffer 4, which acts as a buffer during the downward pressing process of the driver 3.

[0025] The core of this embodiment lies in the setting of cleaning component 6 and collection component 9, which realizes the automated flushing and cleaning of mold debris and the filtration and recycling of waste liquid. The cleaning component 6 includes two water tanks 604 fixedly connected to the top of the cabinet 1. The water tanks 604 are used to store recycled water. A support column 602 is fixedly connected to the top of the water tanks 604. The support column 602 is used to support the nozzle 601. The nozzle 601 is fixedly connected to the side of the support column 602 near the mold. The bottom end of the nozzle 601 is provided with a universal joint interface. The nozzle 601 is rotatably connected to the support column 602 through the universal joint interface. The nozzle 601 is used to adjust the spray angle to clean the debris in all areas of the mold without dead angles. A water pipe 603 is connected between the water tanks 604 and the nozzle 601. A water pump is fixedly installed inside the water tanks 604. The output end of the water pump is connected to one end of the water pipe 603, and the other end of the water pipe 603 is connected to the nozzle 601. The water pump is used to pressurize the water in the water tanks 604 into the nozzle 601. The water flow sprayed from the nozzle 601 cleans the processing debris on the mold.

[0026] Wastewater and debris collection is achieved through a structure at the top of cabinet 1. A collection trough 605 is provided at the top of cabinet 1, around the base 8. The collection trough 605 has a funnel-shaped structure that slopes inwards, allowing debris carried by the water flow to be naturally collected by gravity. At the lowest end of the collection trough 605, a drain trough 606 connects to the interior of cabinet 1, guiding the collected wastewater and debris into the interior of cabinet 1.

[0027] The collection component 9 is located inside the cabinet 1, including slide grooves 903 formed on both sides of the inner wall of the cabinet 1, and a collection cabinet 901 slidably fitted within the slide grooves 903. The collection cabinet 901 is located directly below the drain trough 606 and is used to collect wastewater and debris. The outer walls of both sides of the collection cabinet 901 are fixedly provided with protruding plates that match the slide grooves 903. The collection cabinet 901 slides linearly with the cabinet 1 along the length of the slide grooves 903 via the protruding plates, facilitating disassembly. A handle 902 is fixedly installed on the outer wall of the collection cabinet 901 away from the interior of the cabinet 1. The handle 902 is used to drive the collection cabinet 901 to be pulled out or pushed in along the slide grooves 903.

[0028] The top of the inner wall of the collection cabinet 901 is provided with a groove 905. The groove 905 has a recessed structure, and its length and width dimensions are adapted to the edge dimensions of the filter plate 904. The filter plate 904 with evenly distributed filter holes on its surface is inserted into the groove 905. The filter plate 904 is placed horizontally on the groove 905 and covers the internal cavity of the collection cabinet 901. The filter plate 904 is used to separate mold debris from the wastewater. The filtered water can be poured into the water tank 604 for recycling, reducing water consumption.

[0029] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, the QSFP port metal housing forming stamping die also includes a cleaning component 6 and a collection component 9, and the cleaning component 6 and the collection component 9 form a specific structural fit and connection relationship with the aforementioned cabinet 1.

[0030] Please refer to the following carefully. Figure 2 and Figure 4 The specific structure of the cleaning component 6 is described in detail below: The cleaning component 6 has two water tanks 604 fixedly connected to the top of the cabinet 1. A support column 602 is fixedly connected to the top of the water tank 604. A nozzle 601 is fixedly connected to the support column 602 near the mold. The bottom of the nozzle 601 is provided with a universal joint interface. The nozzle 601 is rotatably connected to the support column 602 through the universal joint interface. The universal joint interface structure allows the nozzle 601 to flexibly adjust the spray angle. A water pipe 603 connects the water tank 604 and the nozzle 601. A water pump is fixedly installed inside the water tank 604. The output end of the water pump is connected to one end of the water pipe 603, and the other end of the water pipe 603 is connected to the nozzle 601. The pressure provided by the water pump is used to transport the liquid in the water tank 604 to the nozzle 601 through the water pipe 603 and spray it out.

[0031] Meanwhile, a collection trough 605 is provided on the top of the cabinet 1 and around the base 8. The collection trough 605 has a funnel-shaped structure that slopes from the outside to the inside. A drain trough 606 is provided at the lowest end of the collection trough 605, which connects to the inside of the cabinet 1. A collection component 9 is provided directly below the drain trough 606. The collection trough 605 and the drain trough 606 form a gravity flow channel for liquids and debris.

[0032] Please refer to the following carefully. Figure 2 and Figure 3 The following is a detailed description of the collecting component 9 and its mating structure with the cabinet 1: The collection component 9 has grooves 903 on both sides of the inner wall of the cabinet 1, and a collection cabinet 901 that slides within the grooves 903. The outer walls of both sides of the collection cabinet 901 are fixedly provided with protrusions that match the grooves 903. The collection cabinet 901 slides linearly with the cabinet 1 along the length of the grooves 903 through the protrusions. This structure of the protrusions and the grooves 903 ensures that the collection cabinet 901 can move back and forth in a stable linear motion inside the cabinet 1 like a drawer, which facilitates the subsequent cleaning and dumping of waste liquid. A handle 902 is fixedly installed on the outer wall of the collection cabinet 901 away from the inside of the cabinet 1. The handle 902 is used to drive the collection cabinet 901 to be pulled out or pushed in along the grooves 903.

[0033] The top of the inner wall of the collection cabinet 901 is provided with a groove 905. The groove 905 is a recessed structure. A filter plate 904 with filter holes distributed on its surface is snapped into the groove 905. The length and width of the recessed groove 905 are adapted to the edge dimensions of the filter plate 904, so that the filter plate 904 is placed horizontally on the groove 905 and covers the internal cavity of the collection cabinet 901, forming a solid-liquid separation structure.

[0034] Based on the above embodiments, the present invention also includes the following preferred technical solutions: In a preferred embodiment, in order to reduce the rigid impact when the driver 3 is pressed down and to protect the mold precision, a buffer 4 is fixedly installed between the bottom output end of the driver 3 and the upper mold 5. The top of the upper mold 5 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the buffer 4. The buffer 4 absorbs part of the impact energy and prevents hard contact from causing damage to the mold.

[0035] As another preferred embodiment, in order to achieve flexible multi-angle rinsing to eliminate cleaning dead corners, a universal joint interface is provided at the bottom of the nozzle 601. The nozzle 601 is rotatably connected to the support column 602 through the universal joint interface. This structure allows the nozzle 601 to rotate around the support column 602 to adjust the water spray direction and meet the cleaning needs of complex mold structures.

[0036] As another preferred embodiment, in order to collect waste liquid and debris more efficiently, the inlet 605 opened around the bottom of the base 8 has a funnel-shaped structure that slopes from the outside to the inside. The drain 606 is located at the lowest end of the inlet 605. The funnel-shaped structure uses gravity to quickly guide the waste liquid and debris to the drain 606, avoiding the accumulation of waste liquid on the top of the cabinet 1.

[0037] As another preferred embodiment, in order to ensure that the collection cabinet 901 can be pulled out smoothly and stably, protruding plates are fixedly installed on the outer walls of both sides of the collection cabinet 901. The shape and size of the protruding plates match the slide groove 903. The collection cabinet 901 relies on the protruding plates to slide linearly in the slide groove 903 to avoid tilting or jamming during the pulling process.

[0038] As another preferred embodiment, in order to facilitate the disassembly and cleaning of the filter assembly and the separation of solid and liquid, the groove 905 opened around the top of the inner wall of the collection cabinet 901 is designed as a recessed structure. The size of the recessed structure is closely fitted with the edge size of the filter plate 904. The filter plate 904 is horizontally snapped into the groove 905. This non-permanent fixed connection method allows the filter plate 904 to be easily removed and the debris intercepted on its surface to be cleaned.

[0039] As another preferred embodiment, in order to facilitate manual operation of the collection cabinet 901, a handle 902 is fixedly installed on the outer wall of the collection cabinet 901 away from the interior of the cabinet body 1. By holding the handle 902, external force is applied to drive the collection cabinet 901 to reciprocate along the slide groove 903.

[0040] As another preferred embodiment, in order to provide stable flushing power, a water pump is fixedly installed inside the water tank 604. The output end of the water pump is connected to one end of the water pipe 603, and the other end of the water pipe 603 is connected to the nozzle 601. When the water pump is working, it pressurizes the liquid in the water tank 604 and delivers it to the nozzle 601.

[0041] The working principle of this utility model's QSFP port metal shell forming stamping die is as follows: When the operation begins, the driver 3 starts and drives the upper mold 5 to move downward to cooperate with the lower mold 7 for stamping. During this pressing process, the buffer 4 plays a role in buffering and shock absorption, protecting the die cutting edge and improving stamping stability. After the stamping is completed, the driver 3 drives the upper mold 5 to reset.

[0042] During the cleaning phase, the water pump inside the water tank 604 is started, and the cleaning fluid is pressed into the nozzle 601 through the water pipe 603. The nozzle 601 is pre-adjusted at an angle through the universal joint interface, so that the high-pressure fluid can accurately cover the mold cavity and dead corners, and use fluid kinetic energy to wash away the metal debris attached to the mold surface.

[0043] During the convergence and collection phase, the cleaning fluid, carrying the debris washed down, flows naturally into the inflow trough 605 located around the base 8 under the action of gravity. Since the inflow trough 605 is designed as a funnel-shaped structure that slopes from the outside to the inside, the waste liquid and debris quickly converge to the lowest drop trough 606 and fall vertically into the collection cabinet 901 inside the cabinet 1.

[0044] During the filtration and circulation stage, the waste liquid falls into the collection tank 901 and directly contacts the filter plate 904. The densely distributed filter holes on the surface of the filter plate 904 intercept solid debris on the plate surface. The filtered clean liquid drips through the filter holes to the bottom of the collection tank 901 for storage, thus achieving solid-liquid separation and preventing debris residue.

[0045] During the cleaning and maintenance phase, the operator holds the handle 902 and drives the collection cabinet 901 to slide smoothly out of the cabinet 1 along the slide groove 903 through the convex plates on both sides. Then, the filter plate 904 is taken out from the tray 905 to remove the debris accumulated on the surface, and the liquid collected at the bottom of the collection cabinet 901 is poured back into the water tank 604 for recycling. Finally, the cleaned filter plate 904 is reset and pushed back into the collection cabinet 901 to complete the entire closed-loop cleaning process.

[0046] The above description is only a specific embodiment of this utility model, but the protection scope of this utility model is not limited thereto. Any changes 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 protection scope of the claims.
