MOLDING DEVICE AND MOLDING METHOD - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240051204 titled 'MOLDING DEVICE AND MOLDING METHOD
Simplified Explanation
The patent application describes a molding device and method that includes a mold cavity, a position control mechanism, and a gas discharging mechanism. The molding device is used to form articles by injecting material into the mold cavity. After the article is formed, a portion of the gas inside the mold cavity is discharged through a slit in the gas discharging mechanism. The upper mold is then disengaged from the lower mold, and the article is detached from the middle mold.
- The molding device includes an upper mold, a lower mold, and a middle mold that can be moved.
- A position control mechanism is used to move the middle mold.
- A gas discharging mechanism is located adjacent to the mold cavity and includes a gas conduit and a slit jointly defined by the upper mold and the lower mold.
- The slit is in communication with the mold cavity and the gas conduit when the molding device is closed.
- The molding method involves injecting material into the mold cavity to form an article.
- After the article is formed, a portion of the gas inside the mold cavity is discharged through the slit of the gas discharging mechanism.
- The upper mold is then disengaged from the lower mold.
- The article is detached from the middle mold.
Potential applications of this technology:
- Manufacturing industry: The molding device and method can be used in various manufacturing processes that require the formation of articles using molds.
- Plastic industry: This technology can be applied in the production of plastic products, allowing for efficient and precise molding.
- Automotive industry: The molding device and method can be utilized in the manufacturing of automotive parts and components.
Problems solved by this technology:
- Gas removal: The gas discharging mechanism allows for the efficient removal of gas from the mold cavity, preventing defects in the formed articles.
- Precision molding: The position control mechanism ensures accurate movement of the middle mold, resulting in precise molding of the articles.
- Easy detachment: The disengagement of the upper mold from the lower mold and detachment of the article from the middle mold simplify the manufacturing process.
Benefits of this technology:
- Improved product quality: The gas discharging mechanism helps in achieving high-quality articles by eliminating gas-related defects.
- Increased productivity: The precise control of the middle mold and the easy detachment process enhance the productivity of the molding operation.
- Cost-effective: The efficient gas removal and precise molding reduce material waste and improve overall cost-effectiveness in the manufacturing process.
Original Abstract Submitted
a molding device includes a mold cavity defined by an upper mold, a lower mold and a middle mold being moveably attached to the lower mold; a position control mechanism configured to move the middle mold; and a gas discharging mechanism disposed adjacent to the mold cavity and including a gas conduit and a slit jointly defined by the upper mold and the lower mold when the molding device is closed, the slit is in communication with the mold cavity and the gas conduit. a molding method includes injecting a material into a mold cavity to form an article in the mold cavity; discharging at least a portion of a gas out of the mold cavity through a slit of a gas discharging mechanism adjacent to the mold cavity after the article is formed; disengaging a upper mold from a lower mold; and detaching the article from a middle mold.
