Detailed Description
The following detailed description of specific embodiments of the present disclosure is provided in connection with the accompanying drawings. It should be understood that the detailed description and specific examples, while indicating the present disclosure, are given by way of illustration and explanation only, not limitation.
As shown in fig. 1 and 2, the present disclosure provides a glass hot-bending mold comprising a male mold 1 and a female mold 2 which are fitted to each other, the peripheries of the male mold 1 and the female mold 2 each being formed with a bending mold having a periphery with curvature for molding a glass product 3, wherein the glass hot-bending mold further comprises a pressing device 4 for applying a pressure toward the male mold 1 toward a central region of the glass product 3 during the relative approach of the male mold 1 and the female mold 2.
In the process of forming the glass product, the glass product 3 can gradually bend the periphery of the glass product 3 to form a curved surface with a certain curvature through the combined action of high-temperature heating and the pressure applied by the female die 2 towards the male die 1. At this time, on the other hand, since the central region of the glass product 3 is also subjected to a certain deformation such as warpage when subjected to the above-mentioned pressure, in order to avoid the central region of the glass product 3 from being deformed during the molding process, the pressing device 4 applies a pressure toward the central region of the glass product in the direction of the punch 1 in the process of relatively approaching the punch 1 and the die 2, so as to eliminate the deformation of the central region of the glass product 3, so that the central region of the glass product is not affected by the pressure of the die 2 against the punch 1 during the molding process of the glass product 3, and is always kept in a flat state, and deformation such as warpage is not generated, thereby ensuring normal display of a mobile phone image.
Specifically, as shown in fig. 1, the pressing device 4 includes a pressing rod 41 and a pressing plate 42 for being attached to the glass product 3, and the pressing rod 41 is vertically connected to an upper surface of the pressing plate 42 through the concave mold 2 in a relatively slidable manner. That is, the pressing plate 42 is located between the female mold 2 and the male mold 1, the pressing rod 41 is vertically connected to the pressing plate 42, and the female mold 2 can be freely attached to the pressing plate 42 through the pressing rod 41. In the process of forming the glass product, the pressing plate 42 is positioned above the glass product 3, and the pressing rod 41 applies pressure towards the direction of the male die 1 to the central area of the glass product 3, so that the deformation of the central area of the glass product 3 in the forming process is eliminated. Wherein the directional word "up" is defined as up and down as shown in the drawing of figure 1.
In order to ensure that the pressure plate 42 is uniformly acted by the pressure rods 41, as an embodiment, the number of the pressure rods 41 may be multiple, and the pressure rods are respectively connected to the pressure plate 42 at uniform intervals. That is, the pressure plate 42 is vertically connected with a plurality of pressure rods 41, and the pressure rods 41 are uniformly arranged on the upper surface of the pressure plate 42, so as to ensure uniform stress of the pressure plate 42.
As another embodiment, the number of the pressing rods 41 may be one, and the cross-sectional area of the pressing rods 41 is identical to the surface area of the pressing plate 42. For example, the upper surface of the pressure plate 42 may be formed in a circular shape, and the surface area of the circular shape is the same as and the same as the cross-sectional area of the pressing rod 41, so that the pressure plate 42 is uniformly stressed.
In order to facilitate the attachment and detachment of the pressing lever 41, in the present embodiment, the pressing lever 41 is detachably connected to the pressing plate 42. For example, a threaded connection or the like may be used.
In order to ensure the surface quality of the glass product 3, the pressing rod 41 is always perpendicular to the pressing plate 42 when the pressing rod 41 applies pressure to the pressing plate 42. In the present embodiment, the female die 2 is provided with a through hole for passing through the pressing rod 41, and the pressing rod 41 is in clearance fit with the through hole. That is, the pressing rod 41 and the concave die 2 are independent from each other, but are mutually limited, the concave die 2 can only move along the axial direction of the pressing rod 41, and the pressing rod 41 and the pressing plate 42 are always kept vertical, so that when the pressing plate 42 applies pressure towards the central area of the glass product 3, the glass product 3 can be prevented from sliding, and the glass product 3 is prevented from being defective at high temperature.
In order to prevent the pressing plate 42 from exerting a force on the side portions of the glass product 3, in the present embodiment, the area of the pressing plate 42 is not larger than the area of the central region of the glass product 3. Wherein the central area refers to the non-deformed region and the periphery of the glass product 3 refers to the deformed region. The pressure of the pressure plate 42 against the central region prevents deformation of the central region. Therefore, the area of the pressing plate 42 only needs to be applied to the non-deformation region of the glass product 3.
Since the glass hot-bending mold is provided with a pressurizing device, in order to ensure the deformation amount of the periphery of the glass product 3, in the present embodiment, the concave mold 2 is formed with a groove 21 which is accommodated and matched with the pressing plate 42 in shape on the inner top wall facing the pressing plate 42. Like this, when the die 2 constantly pressed down to terrace die 1, in clamp plate 42 accommodated the recess 21, at this moment, clamp plate 42 and die 2 cooperation are as an organic whole, and die 2 alright continue to push down glassware 3 with driving clamp plate 42, guarantee the peripheral deflection of glassware 3.
In the present embodiment, the surface roughness of the press plate 42 and the punch 1 is not more than 0.08 μm in the present embodiment due to the direct contact of the press plate 42 and the punch 1 with the glass article 3. In other words, the surface finish of the platen 42 and the punch 1 is at least 11 grade, preventing scratching of the glass product 3 when it comes to contact with it.
Since the glass product 3 is in a high temperature state during the molding process, the material of the punch 1, the die 2, and the platen 42 is graphite in the present embodiment. The graphite can not deform due to temperature rise, and other deformation caused by the deformation of the material of the mold in the forming process of the glass product 3 can not be caused.
In summary, the present disclosure provides a glass hot-bending mold, in which a pressing device applies a pressure toward a central region of a glass product in a direction toward a male mold, so as to eliminate an external force generated by pressing a female mold against the male mold, thereby eliminating deformation of the central region of the glass product. Therefore, the problem of deformation of the central area of the glass product can be effectively solved under the condition of ensuring the curved surface forming of the periphery of the glass product.
