Description

  The present invention relates to a mold apparatus for a molded body and a method for manufacturing the molded body.

  Conventionally, various techniques for producing a molded body using a vacuum forming method are known (for example, see Patent Document 1).

8-10 is a figure explaining the prior art using the vacuum forming method.
As shown in FIGS. 8A and 8B, the mold apparatus 100 forms a molded body 105 in which a plurality of vehicle interior materials 103 including a core material 101 and a skin material 102 are continuous, and a lower mold 106. Consists of only. The lower mold 106 is provided with a molding surface 108 having a plurality of convex portions 107 and a vacuum suction mechanism 111. In the manufacture of the molded body 105 using the mold apparatus 100, the core material 101 is set on each of the plurality of convex portions 107, and then the skin material 102 is vacuum formed along the plurality of convex portions 107 by the vacuum suction mechanism 111. To do. Then, the formed body 105 is sent to a cutting process such as a so-called piercing process, and the skin material 102 is cut at a cutting position indicated by a one-dot chain line to obtain a plurality of vehicle interior materials 103 having a predetermined shape.

  However, in the production of such a molded body 105, since a cutting process is necessary as described above, a piercing die, a press machine, and the like are separately required, and there is a problem that the manufacturing cost increases. In order to solve this problem, as shown in FIG. 9, an upper mold 113 having a cutting part 112 is added, and the upper mold 113 is lowered after forming the molded body 105, and the skin material 102 is moved by the cutting part 112. It is effective to cut. In this case, since a piercing type or the like is unnecessary, the manufacturing cost can be kept low.

  Further, in the mold apparatus 100 shown in FIG. 8A, since the molded body 105 is molded only by vacuum suction, the skin material 102 is not sufficiently stretched along the convex portion 107, and the molding quality may be deteriorated. There is. In such a case, as shown in FIG. 10, it is preferable to add an upper mold 113 including a compressed air mechanism 115. That is, the annular pressure receiving portion 116 is provided on the upper mold 113, and the lower end 116 a of the pressure receiving portion 116 and the mating surface 117 of the lower mold 106 are sealed. Then, while the skin material 102 is vacuum-formed by the vacuum suction mechanism 111, pressurized air is supplied to the sealed space 118 surrounded by the pressure receiving portion 116 by the pressure air mechanism 115, and the skin material 102 is pressure-air molded. Thereby, the skin material 102 can be extended favorably and molding quality can be improved.

  By the way, while a high-quality and inexpensive molded body is required, a technique for achieving both compression molding and cutting of the molded body is required for manufacturing a molded body using a vacuum forming method.

Before the seal is sealed (before pressure forming), the cut portion comes into contact with the skin material 102 and is cut before the skin material 102 is sufficiently stretched. As a result, since the skin material 102 is formed short, high molding quality cannot be obtained. For this reason, new technical development that can achieve both compression molding and cutting of the molded body is desired.

  The present invention has been made in view of such circumstances.
