The key point of the present application is that the skeleton insert 10 is used as a filling skeleton of the wheel hub 100 and a cooling structure of the forming mold 200, and has the advantages of improving the cooling efficiency of the forming mold 200 and ensuring the forming quality of the wheel hub 100.
It should be noted that the specific structure and the mode of opening and closing of the fixed mold assembly 20 and the movable mold assembly 30 are well known and not specifically described in the present embodiment, but this does not prevent the technical features from being implied in the present application.

More specifically, as shown in fig. 9 to 21, the skeleton insert 10 is an annular structure, a central shaft hole 12 is formed in the middle of the skeleton insert 10, a water inlet hole 13 and a water outlet hole 14 are formed in the inner wall of the skeleton insert 10, two sides of the water inlet hole 13 and the water outlet hole 14 are respectively communicated with the cooling channel 11 and the central shaft hole 12, the cooling device 50 includes a central cylinder 51, the central cylinder 51 is suitable for being tightly attached to and penetrating through the central shaft hole 12, a convex edge 52 is arranged on the peripheral side of the central cylinder 51, the skeleton insert 10 is suitable for being placed against the convex edge 52, a water inlet channel 53 and a water outlet channel 54 are formed in the central cylinder 51, and the water inlet channel 53 and the water outlet channel 54 respectively extend to the side wall of the central cylinder 51; when the skeleton insert 10 is fixedly placed on the cooling device 50, the water inlet channel 53 is suitable for being communicated with the water inlet hole 13, and the water outlet channel 54 is suitable for being communicated with the water outlet hole 14. The water cooling is a common cooling method for the mold, and the cooling device 50 of the present embodiment can be seamlessly connected to the mold water cooling system and is suitable for controlling the water circulation through the electromagnetic valve.
As shown in fig. 14 to 17, since the cooling channel 11 has a large volume, the water inlet holes 13 and the water outlet holes 14 of the present embodiment are respectively provided with three water inlet holes and three water outlet holes, and are uniformly and alternately distributed along the circumferential direction, so as to increase the water inlet amount and the water outlet amount and improve the cooling efficiency; as shown in fig. 19, of course, three sets of water inlet channels 53 and water outlet channels 54 are also needed. The forming die 200 of this embodiment adopts vertical structure, and skeleton insert 10 is fixed along vertical direction and is placed on cooling device 50 promptly, as shown in fig. 21, designs inlet opening 13 and is located 11 upper ends of cooling channel, and apopore 14 is located 11 lower extremes of cooling channel, adopts the mode of going into from top to bottom for cooling water can flow out from apopore 14 under the action of gravity, with the residue of reduction cooling water in cooling channel 11.
As shown in fig. 9 to 21, in order to further reduce the cooling water residue, in this embodiment, the inner wall of the skeleton insert 10 is further provided with an air inlet hole 15 and an air outlet hole 16, two sides of the air inlet hole 15 and the air outlet hole 16 are respectively communicated with the cooling channel 11 and the central shaft hole 12, the central column 51 is further provided with an air inlet channel 55 and an air outlet channel 56, and the air inlet channel 55 and the air outlet channel 56 respectively extend to the side wall of the central column 51; when the skeleton insert 10 is fixedly placed on the cooling device 50, the air inlet channel 55 is suitable for being communicated with the air inlet hole 15, and the air outlet channel 56 is suitable for being communicated with the air outlet hole 16.

Furthermore, the base 10a is further provided with a plurality of supporting protrusions 18, the upper cover 10b is suitable for abutting against the supporting protrusions 18, and the supporting protrusions 18 not only support the upper cover 10b, increase the strength of the skeleton insert 10, but also increase the contact area between the skeleton insert 10 and cooling water and cooling air, thereby improving the cooling efficiency. Because skeleton inserts 10 and cooling device 50 are the solid of revolution structure, still be provided with on upper cover 10b and prevent slow-witted sign 19, supply robot or manual identification, avoid skeleton inserts 10 dislocation to place.
As shown in fig. 13, 21 and 22, in order to reduce the leakage of the cooling water, nozzles 59 are provided on both the water inlet passage 53 and the water outlet passage 54; when the skeleton insert 10 is fixedly placed on the cooling device 50, the nozzle 59 is suitable for being hermetically embedded into the water outlet hole 13 or the water inlet hole 14; the nozzle 59 comprises a sliding tube 591, a spring 592 and a limit ring 593, the sliding tube 591 slides and is arranged in the water inlet channel 53 or the water outlet channel 54 in a clinging manner, the limit ring 593 is fixedly arranged in the water inlet channel 53 or the water outlet channel 54, the spring 592 is arranged between the sliding tube 591 and the limit ring 593 and is suitable for forcing the sliding tube 591 to slide outwards, and a guide inclined surface 5911 is arranged on the outer side surface of the sliding tube 591; during placement of the skeleton insert 10 in the cooling device 50, the lower edge of the skeleton insert 10 is adapted to abut against the guiding slope 5911 and push the sliding tube 591 to slide inwards, and after placement in place, the spring 592 is adapted to push the sliding tube 591 to slide outwards and into the water outlet hole 13 or the water inlet hole 14. The outer edges of the water outlet hole 13 and the water inlet hole 14 are preferably chamfered so as to be tightly attached to the guide inclined surface 5911 and increase the sealing performance.
The foregoing has described the general principles, essential features, and advantages of the application. It will be understood by those skilled in the art that the present application is not limited to the embodiments described above, which are merely illustrative of the principles of the application, but that various changes and modifications may be made without departing from the spirit and scope of the application, and these changes and modifications are intended to be within the scope of the application as claimed.
