Description

Thread forming die and thread forming process for paper plastic parts TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of paper plastic part manufacturing, in particular to a thread forming die and thread forming process for paper plastic parts. BACKGROUND

[0002] The pulp molding industry is rapidly developing, with increasing capacity and output. With the promotion of the "ban on plastic" and the improvement of environmental awareness, the market space for paper plastic parts is huge. Pulp molding products are gradually replacing traditional plastic products due to their environmental characteristics, such as recyclability and biodegradability.

[0003] Pulp molding products, or paper plastic parts, are mainly made from waste paper, wood pulp, plant fibers and other raw materials through a series of processes such as disintegration and grinding. The fibers in the pulp are deposited on a forming net mold and filtered and dewatered to form a wet embryo. Excess water is removed through pressing and drying, and finally shaped, inspected, packaged, etc.

[0004] Due to the limitations of materials and forming processes, it is difficult to manufacture paper plastic parts with threads. In related technologies, some solutions use a mold core mold composed of multiple sliding blocks. The multiple sliding blocks are connected to a wedge-shaped core, and the multiple sliding blocks are in sliding cooperation with the wedge-shaped core. By moving the wedge-shaped core, the multiple sliding blocks move outward to extrude the pulp wet embryo, thereby extruding the thread shape of the paper plastic part. By pulling out the wedge-shaped core, the multiple sliding blocks are retracted inward, thereby separating the mold from the wet embryo for easy disassembly.

[0005] However, this mold core structure is complex, has many parts, and has high assembly and processing costs. In addition, multiple parts need to move simultaneously during thread forming of the paper plastic part, and the joint lines at the joint of the multiple parts affect the appearance and reliability of the formed paper plastic part, leaving room for improvement.

[0044] The thread forming die 100 of the paper plastic part according to the embodiment of the application is described below with reference to Figures 1-3.

[0045] As shown in Figures 1-3, the thread forming die 100 according to one embodiment of the application comprises a first die 10 and a second die 20, the first die 10 defining a plastic cavity 11 capable of accommodating a paper plastic part wet blank 60; the second die 20 is located on one side of the first die 10, the second die 20 having a die core 30, the surface of the die core 30 being provided with threads 31, the die core 30 rotating relative to the plastic cavity 11 in the plastic cavity 11 to form thread patterns on the paper plastic part wet blank 60, the die core 30 can also translate along the axis of the die core 30 to extend into the plastic cavity 11 or to withdraw from the plastic cavity 11.

[0046] As shown in Figures 2 and 3, the first die 10 defines a plastic cavity 11, i.e. a space, for accommodating a paper plastic part wet blank 60, wherein the shape and size of the plastic cavity 11 match the design of the final paper plastic part, for example, the paper plastic part can be a paper pulp molded container lid, the plastic cavity 11 is a hollow chamber with one side open, and the wet blank 60 of the container lid is placed in the plastic cavity 11; the paper plastic part can also be a paper pulp molded container, the plastic cavity 11 is an annular cavity with a positioning paper bottle structure in the middle, and the mouth 60 of the paper pulp molded container wet blank is placed in the plastic cavity 11 and is sleeved on the outside of the positioning paper bottle structure.

[0047] The second mold 20 is located on one side of the first mold 10, and a mold core 30 is arranged on the second mold 20. The mold core 30 is an integral part, and the surface of the mold core 30 is designed to have a thread 31 shape. The mold core 30 can rotate relative to the plastic cavity 11 in the plastic cavity 11, and at the same time, the mold core 30 can also move in the axial direction to extend into the plastic cavity 11, that is, the mold core 30 rotates and advances towards the plastic cavity 11. This action can make the thread 31 on the surface of the mold core 30 form a thread pattern on the paper plastic part wet blank 60, such as forming a thread pattern on the inside or outside of the paper plastic product, for example, forming a thread pattern on the inside of the paper pulp molded container cover or forming a thread pattern on the outside of the mouth of the paper pulp molded container.

[0048] In addition, the mold core 30 can also move in the axial direction to move out of the plastic cavity 11, complete the movement of the mold core 30, and facilitate the subsequent demolding of the paper plastic part wet blank 60.

[0049] That is, by adopting the mold core 30 structure with the thread 31, the thread pattern is directly formed on the paper plastic part wet blank 60 during the movement of the mold core 30. The mold core 30 is an integral part, and the thread 31 is machined on it. The structure of the mold core 30 is simple, and the overall structure will not be divided. The appearance and reliability of the paper plastic part can be improved. The structure and movement mode of the mold core are simple and reliable, and can be used in various environmental conditions without affecting the reliability due to the environment.

[0050] Moreover, for the movement mode of the plurality of components in the prior art, the plurality of components are easily stuck in the wet blank 60 when they are retracted, which may cause the whole to be stuck and the wet blank 60 to be wasted. In the present application, the mold core 30 adopts a rotating mode to extrude the wet blank 60 to form a thread pattern on the wet blank 60, the forming process is simple, the mold core 30 is not easy to be stuck with the wet blank 60, the reliability is improved, the probability of waste of the wet blank 60 is reduced, and the qualified rate of the wet blank 60 is improved.

[0051] In addition, in the prior art, when the plurality of components cooperate to form a thread pattern in the bottle cap, if the bottle cap is too small, the internal space is limited, and the plurality of components have insufficient space to move, so it is difficult to form a deep thread pattern in the bottle cap. In the present application, by arranging different depths of threads 31 on the mold core 30 and rotating to extrude the wet blank 60, a thread pattern can be formed on the wet blank 60, thereby meeting the manufacturing requirements of different sizes and depths, and the application range is wider.

[0052] According to the paper-plastic part thread forming die 100 of the embodiment of the present application, by adopting the die core 30 structure with the thread 31, the die core 30 structure is simple, the parts are few, the assembly processing cost is reduced, the forming process is simple and ingenious, the probability of the wet blank 60 waste can be reduced, the qualified rate of the wet blank 60 can be improved, the thread manufacturing requirements of different sizes and different depths can be met, the application range is more extensive, in addition, the structure of the manufactured paper-plastic part is not easy to produce a line, the appearance and reliability of the paper-plastic part can be improved.

[0053] In some embodiments, the die core 30 can be moved in a manner opposite to the rotation direction of the thread to separate the paper-plastic part wet blank 60 from the plastic cavity 11, that is, when the die core 30 is pulled out of the plastic cavity 11, the paper-plastic part wet blank 60 is pulled out of the plastic cavity 11, the separation of the paper-plastic part wet blank 60 and the plastic cavity 11 is realized, it should be noted that in the process of forming the thread on the paper-plastic part wet blank 60, the die core 30 rotates and translates at the same time, when the die core 30 moves in the opposite manner, the die core 30 can rotate in the opposite direction, or the die core 30 can translate in the opposite direction, or the die core 30 can translate in the opposite direction and rotate in the opposite direction.

[0054] For example, the die core 30 rotates in the clockwise direction and extends into the plastic cavity 11, thereby forming a thread on the wet blank 60, by rotating the die core 30 in the counterclockwise direction and pulling it out of the plastic cavity 11, the wet blank 60 is rotated synchronously, thereby pulling the wet blank 60 out of the plastic cavity 11, after the wet blank 60 is completely separated from the cavity, the wet blank 60 and the die core 30 are relatively rotated to separate the wet blank 60 and the die core 30.

[0055] For another example, the die core 30 rotates and translates in the direction from top to bottom and extends into the plastic cavity 11, thereby forming a thread on the wet blank 60, by translating the die core 30 in the direction from bottom to top and pulling it out of the plastic cavity 11, the wet blank 60 is translated, thereby pulling the wet blank 60 out of the plastic cavity 11, after the wet blank 60 is completely separated from the cavity, the wet blank 60 and the die core 30 are relatively rotated to separate the wet blank 60 and the die core 30.

[0056] In other embodiments, when the die core 30 is pulled out of the plastic cavity 11, the wet blank 60 is always located in the plastic cavity 11, that is, when the die core 30 is pulled out of the plastic cavity 11, the die core 30 is separated from the wet blank 60, that is, the relative movement caused by the rotation between the threads is used to realize the demolding, after the die core 30 is completely separated from the wet blank 60, the wet blank 60 is taken out of the plastic cavity 11, the wet blank 60 is separated from the plastic cavity 11, and the wet blank 60 can be moved to the next process position.

[0057] In some embodiments, the thread forming die 100 further comprises a driving assembly cooperating with the die core 30 to drive the die core 30 to rotate and to move synchronously, the driving assembly can be one which drives the die core 30 to rotate and to move synchronously, the driving assembly can also be multiple, for example, one driving assembly drives the die core 30 to rotate, and another driving assembly drives the die core 30 to move.

[0058] As shown in FIGS. 1-3, in some embodiments, the driving assembly comprises a slider 40 and a guide 50, the slider 40 is arranged on the second die 20, the slider 40 is movable relative to the second die 20 along a first direction (up and down direction as shown in FIG. 1), the slider 40 is rotationally cooperated with the die core 30; the guide 50 is arranged on the first die 10, and the guide 50 extends along a second direction (from top to bottom and left obliquely), the second direction is oblique to the first direction, the guide 50 is slidingly cooperated with the slider 40.

[0059] Wherein, when the slider 40 is driven, the slider 40 is movable relative to the guide 50 along the second direction, and the slider 40 is movable relative to the second die 20 along the first direction to drive the die core 30 to rotate and to move, so that the die core 30 can rotate and move synchronously under the action of the slider 40.

[0060] Here, the slider 40 is driven, which can be directly applying a force to the slider 40 to make the slider 40 move relative to the guide 50, or indirectly applying a force to the slider 40, for example, applying a force to the second die 20 to move towards the first die 10, the slider 40 is arranged on the second die 20, and the guide 50 is arranged on the first die 10, so that the slider 40 moves relative to the guide 50, at this time, the slider 40 can move along the second direction, the slider 40 is slidingly cooperated with the second die 20, and thus the slider 40 can move along the first direction, the slider 40 is rotationally cooperated with the die core 30, and the die core 30 can rotate and move synchronously with the movement of the slider 40.
