Technical Field
The invention relates to a design method of a neck ring mold of a sealing strip, in particular to a design method of a neck ring mold with an EPDM (ethylene-propylene-diene monomer) sponge foam tube composite sealing strip.
Background
In the development process of the automobile rubber sealing strip, the design of a die is a very critical ring. In die design, the die design of a composite weatherstrip with an Ethylene Propylene Diene Monomer (EPDM) sponge foam tube is complex for the following reasons:
1. the expansion rate of the sponge rubber is different from that of the compact rubber, and the expansion rate of the sponge rubber is generally 10% -20% higher than that of the compact rubber. When the neck mold is designed, the sponge rubber and the compact rubber part need to be designed respectively, namely the sponge rubber part is reduced, and the compact rubber part is enlarged. The deformation behaviors of the two rubber materials after extrusion vulcanization are very different, and how to smoothly joint the two rubber materials becomes a difficulty in designing the products.
2. The sponge rubber has 2 processes of vulcanization and foaming after being extruded, the shape change is obvious, and the control on the shape of the sponge rubber foam tube is difficult.
For the reasons, a set of qualified neck mold with the EPDM sponge rubber foam tube composite sealing strip is designed. In the past, a mouth mold engineer designs the shape of a mouth mold according to experience by using CAD software, the deformation of a joint part of sponge rubber and compact rubber cannot be determined, and trial production and modification are required for many times, so that the debugging time in the early development stage is long, the cost is high, and great waste of manpower and material resources is brought.
Disclosure of Invention

The technical scheme adopted by the invention for solving the technical problems is as follows: a die design method for a composite sealing strip with an EPDM (ethylene-propylene-diene monomer) sponge foam tube comprises the following steps:
1) constructing a three-dimensional structure data model of a sealing strip through CAE software, wherein the sealing strip comprises a bubble tube and a clamping part which is positioned below the bubble tube and is of an inverted U-shaped structure, and a metal framework of the inverted U-shaped structure is arranged in the clamping part;
2) importing the three-dimensional structure data model of the sealing strip into Marc software;
3) an inner auxiliary line and an outer auxiliary line are arranged in Marc software, the outer auxiliary line is arranged along the outer side curve of the bubble tube, and the inner side curve of the bubble tube is zoomed by 80% -90% to form the inner auxiliary line;
4) a first auxiliary line segment and a second auxiliary line segment are arranged in Marc software, and the first auxiliary line segment and the second auxiliary line segment are respectively positioned at the bottoms of two inner wall surfaces of a metal framework;
5) the top parts of two inner wall surfaces of a metal framework are set in Marc software as circle centers;
6) carrying out deformation simulation on the sealing strip by Marc software, taking the centroid of an auxiliary line outside the bubble tube as a zooming center, and zooming the bubble tube by 80-90% of the zooming center, so that the inner side curve of the bubble tube is superposed with the inner auxiliary line;
7) the clamping part rotates 10 degrees towards two sides by taking the circle center set in the step 5) as a rotation center and the first auxiliary line segment and the second auxiliary line segment set in the step 4) as rigid bodies;
8) the obtained deformation structure of the sealing strip is the structure of the neck mold.
Further preferred embodiments of the present invention: in step 3), the inner curve of the bubble tube is scaled by 85% to form the inner auxiliary line, and in step 6), the bubble tube is scaled by 85% so that the inner curve of the bubble tube is overlapped with the inner auxiliary line;
further preferred embodiments of the present invention: and 5) setting one end of the metal framework bending section close to the inner wall surface as a circle center.
Compared with the prior art, the invention has the advantage that a finished product mold does not need to be produced and processed. And a required sealing strip three-dimensional structure data model is established through CAE software. And (4) carrying out deformation characteristic analysis on the sealing strip through Marc software to obtain the design shape of the sealing strip neck mold. The virtual realization of the design of the compound sealing strip die greatly saves the debugging cost and time of the die and avoids the waste of unnecessary manpower and material resources. In the specific design, the foam tube is made of sponge rubber, and the foam tube can meet the design requirement after being extruded and vulcanized and foamed. Therefore, the shape of the die of the sponge rubber bubble tube needs to be reduced according to a certain proportion. According to the expansion rate of the sponge rubber, the shrinkage proportion of the sponge rubber bubble tube is 80-90%. The clamping part is made of dense glue, wherein the shortest distance between the small blades is 1.0 mm, the thin-wall metal strength of the mouth mold cannot meet the requirement, and meanwhile, reasonable flow channels are difficult to arrange, so that the clamping part is unfolded by 20 degrees. And according to the actual situation, a rigid body and a circle center are designed.
