Mold for molding a case of a mobile device

Abstract

A mold for molding a case of a mobile device includes a first, second, third, fourth and fifth main body, connection slide blocks, and first and second abutment slide blocks. The connection slide blocks and the second abutment slide blocks are inlaid in first and second slide channels of the first and second main bodies. The first abutment slide blocks are inlaid in channels of the connection slide blocks. The third, fourth and fifth main bodies are horizontally movable relative to the first and second main bodies. The first and second main bodies, the connection slide blocks and the first and second abutment slide blocks together define a male mold section and the third, fourth and fifth main bodies together define a female mold section. A metal thin sheet is placed on the male mold section and pressurized and molded by the female mold section to form the case.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS

(6) Please refer to FIGS. 1, 2 and 2A. FIG. 1 is a perspective exploded view of a first embodiment of the mold for molding a case of a mobile device of the present invention. FIG. 2 is a perspective assembled view of the first embodiment of the mold for molding a case of a mobile device of the present invention. FIG. 2A is a sectional assembled view of the first embodiment of the mold for molding a case of a mobile device of the present invention. According to the first embodiment, the mold 1 for molding a case of a mobile device of the present invention includes a first main body 11, a second main body 12, multiple connection slide blocks 13, a third main body 14, a fourth main body 15, a fifth main body 16, multiple first abutment slide blocks 17 and multiple second abutment slide blocks 18.

(7) The first main body 11 has an upper side 111 and a lower side 112. The periphery of the first main body 11 has multiple first slide channels 113. The first slide channels 113 are respectively formed on left and right sides and front and rear sides of the first main body 11.

(8) The second main body 12 is correspondingly disposed under the lower side of the first main body 11. The periphery of the second main body 12 has multiple second slide channels 121. The second slide channels 121 are formed on four corners of the second main body 12 and extend to four corners of the first main body 11 corresponding to the four corners of the second main body 12. The first main body 11 is a trapezoid hexahedron body. Due to the trapezoid hexahedron form of the first main body 11, the first slide channels 113 formed on the periphery, (that is, the left, right, front and rear sides) of the main body 11 are inclined from the first main body 11.

(9) The connection slide blocks 13 are respectively correspondingly inlaid in the second slide channels 121 and slidable relative to the first and second main bodies 11, 12. Each connection slide block 13 has the form of a rectangular triangular hexahedron body. The connection slide block 13 has a hypotenuse 131 on which a channel 132 is formed.

(10) The third main body 14 is correspondingly disposed on the right side of the first main body 11 and horizontally movable relative to the first main body 11 (toward or away from the first main body 11). The third main body 14 has a first arched recess 141 on one side adjacent to the first main body 11.

(11) The fourth main body 15 is correspondingly disposed on the left side of the first main body 11 and horizontally movable relative to the first main body 11 (toward or away from the first main body 11). The fourth main body 15 has a second arched recess 151 on one side adjacent to the first main body 11.

(12) The fifth main body 16 is correspondingly disposed on the front side of the first main body 11 and horizontally movable relative to the first main body 11 (toward or away from the first main body 11). The fifth main body 16 has a third arched recess 161 on one side adjacent to the first main body 11.

(13) The first abutment slide blocks 17 are respectively correspondingly inlaid in the channels 132 and slidable relative to the first and second main bodies 11, 12. The channels 132 are formed on the hypotenuses 131 of the connection slide blocks 13 so that the first abutment slide blocks 17 are obliquely slidable relative to the first and second main bodies 11, 12. Each first abutment slide block 17 has an abutment section 171 and an insertion section 172 respectively disposed on outer edge and inner edge of the first abutment slide block 17. The insertion section 172 has a restriction protrusion block 173 near bottom side of the first abutment slide block 17. The abutment section 171 on outer edge of the first abutment slide block 17 has the form of a convex face.

(14) The second abutment slide blocks 18 are respectively correspondingly inlaid in the first slide channels 113 of the first main body 11. Each second abutment slide block 18 has an abutment section 181 and an insertion slide section 182 respectively disposed on outer edge and inner edge of the second abutment slide block 18. The insertion slide section 182 has a restriction protrusion section 183 near bottom side of the second abutment slide block 18. The abutment section 181 on outer edge of the second abutment slide block 18 has the form of a convex face.

(15) The abutment sections 171, 181 of the first and second abutment slide blocks 17, 18 in the form of a convex face correspond to the first, second and third arched recesses 141, 151, 161 of the third, fourth and fifth main bodies 14, 15, 16.

(16) The first and second main bodies 11, 12 and the connection slide blocks 13 and the first and second abutment slide blocks 17, 18 together define a male mold section 2. The third, fourth and fifth main bodies 14, 15, 16 together define a female mold section 3. When the top sides of the connection slide blocks 13 and the first and second abutment slide blocks 17, 18 are flush with the upper side 111 of the first main body 11, the shape of the male mold section 2 is formed. When the female mold section 3 together defined by the third, fourth and fifth main bodies 14, 15, 16 horizontally moves to get close to the male mold section 2, a mold cavity 4 is formed.

(17) Please now refer to FIG. 3, which is a perspective exploded view of a second embodiment of the mold for molding a case of a mobile device of the present invention. As shown in FIG. 3, the second embodiment is partially identical to the first embodiment in structure and thus will not be repeatedly described hereinafter. The second embodiment is different from the first embodiment in that the first and second main bodies 11, 12 further have multiple through holes 114, 122 and multiple push pins 5. The through holes 114, 122 are positioned in alignment with each other. The push pins 5 are respectively correspondingly fitted in the through holes 114, 122 of the first and second main bodies 11, 12 and up and down movable relative to the first and second main bodies 11, 12. The push pins 5 serve to help in separating a work piece from the surface of the first main body 11 in demolding process.

(18) The present invention has been described with the above embodiments thereof and it is understood that many changes and modifications in the above embodiments can be carried out without departing from the scope and the spirit of the invention that is intended to be limited only by the appended claims.
