Detailed Description
The preferred embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.
The invention provides a line-defining tool, which comprises a first surface 1 and a second surface 2, wherein a line groove 3 is arranged on the first surface 1, and a plurality of vacuum holes 4 are arranged on the first surface 1, as shown in fig. 1 and 2. A vacuum chamber 5 is provided between the first surface and the second surface of the alignment jig, and the vacuum chamber 5 communicates with the vacuum hole 4. And a bottom plate 6 is arranged on the second surface 2 and used for sealing a vacuum cavity 5 inside the tool. The bottom plate 6 is provided with a port 7 for communicating a vacuum pump (not shown) with the vacuum chamber 5 inside the tool through a vacuum tube. And positioning columns 8 are respectively arranged on two sides of the alignment tool and used for positioning the tool and the cladding forming die.
The first surface 1 is formed by locally processing the data of the front surface of the corresponding interior trim part coating framework, namely the position and the size of the wire groove 3 are processed according to the 3D digital analogy of product frameworks with different configurations, for example, the height is 10 mm-70 mm. That is, the routing tool of the present invention can design and process the first surface 1 (i.e., change the position and size of the wire chase 3) to be suitable for products with different configurations. For example, the cladding frameworks of the high-distribution product and the low-distribution product are different in the position and size of the wire groove, as shown in fig. 3, which is a cross-sectional comparison diagram of the wire grooves of the high-distribution wire tool and the low-distribution wire tool, in the diagram, a solid line represents the cross section of the wire groove of the low-distribution tool, and a dotted line represents the cross section of the wire groove of the high-distribution tool. Therefore, the first surface 1 of the high-allocation line tool is locally processed according to the skeleton data corresponding to the high-allocation product, and the first surface 1 of the low-allocation line tool is locally processed according to the skeleton data corresponding to the low-allocation product.
When the interior trim part cladding surface is sleeved on the routing tool for positioning, a suture line on the surface sleeve is clamped in the wire groove, the port 7 is opened, the vacuum pump is started, the vacuum cavity 5 is vacuumized, and the cladding surface sleeve covered on the positioning tool is adsorbed on the tool through the vacuum hole 4 arranged on the first surface 1. Then, as shown in fig. 4, the alignment tool absorbed with the coating surface sleeve is turned over to a lower tire mold 10 of the automatic coating equipment, and the positioning column 8 is matched with a corresponding guide column 9 on the tire mold equipment to realize the fine positioning of the two. And then opening the vacuum of the lower tire mold 10, releasing the vacuum in the alignment tool, adsorbing the coating surface sleeve on the lower tire mold, completing the positioning and the flattening of the coating surface sleeve, and then performing subsequent operation. Thus, the present invention transfers alignment from the molding apparatus to the tooling without the need for positioning by a distinct step feature on the cover sleeve. In order to reduce the weight of the tool, the tool material can be selected from aluminum or nylon and other light materials, so that the transfer operation is more convenient.
By using the alignment tool, the alignment outside the die can be realized. The present invention thus also provides a method of routing comprising:
firstly, a suture of a coating surface sleeve is clamped in a wire slot 3 on a first surface 1 of the alignment tool according to a positioning knife edge, so that the coating surface sleeve is positioned on the alignment tool.
And secondly, opening a vacuum pump communicated with the vacuum cavity 5 in the line fixing tool, sucking air in the vacuum cavity 5, and adsorbing the coating surface sleeve on the line fixing tool by utilizing vacuum suction.
And then, manually or automatically turning over the alignment tool adsorbed with the coating surface sleeve onto the automatically coated tire mould, and carrying out fine positioning on the alignment tool and the coated tire mould.
Then, the vacuum of the lower molding bed 10 is opened, and the vacuum in the alignment tool is released, so that the covering surface sleeve is adsorbed on the lower molding bed, and the positioning and the paving of the covering surface sleeve are completed.
And finally, moving the alignment tool to the outside of the lower tire mold, starting the equipment, and pressing the equipment to realize the molding of the product.
When products with different configurations need to be produced, the products with different configurations are produced on the same tire mould by switching the corresponding external alignment tooling, and the use method of the tooling is consistent with that of the method. In addition, the covering tire mold is designed and processed according to the data of the front surface of the product.
The tool and the method for positioning the outside of the die enable the time for paving the leather on the tool to be overlapped with the time for operating the equipment, and can save the beat of the equipment.
The above embodiments are merely preferred embodiments of the present invention, which are not intended to limit the scope of the present invention, and various changes may be made in the above embodiments of the present invention. All simple and equivalent changes and modifications made according to the claims and the content of the specification of the present application fall within the scope of the claims of the present patent application. The invention has not been described in detail in order to avoid obscuring the invention.
