KR-102961958-B1 - Manufacturing apparatus of interior for vehicle
Abstract
The present invention discloses a mold device for molding vehicle interior materials. The disclosed mold device for molding vehicle interior materials comprises an upper mold for molding an interior material and a stitch forming part for forming a stitch line, a lower mold that is joined with the upper mold, and a stitch forming contact part provided on the lower mold to selectively contact the stitch line forming portion of the interior material with the upper mold. Accordingly, the present invention allows the stitch line forming portion of the interior material to be closely attached to the upper mold after joining the upper mold and the lower mold, thereby enabling the accurate and precise formation of the stitch line of the skin interior material and improving product quality.

Description
Manufacturing apparatus of interior for vehicle The present invention relates to a molding device for molding vehicle interior materials, wherein after combining an upper mold and a lower mold, the stitch line forming portion of the interior material can be closely attached to the upper mold, thereby enabling the stitch line of the skin interior material to be formed accurately and precisely, and thus improving product quality. Recently, to enhance the luxury of vehicles, skin interior materials are molded onto a plastic substrate to create a texture similar to leather or fabric. Skin interior materials are primarily used as surface finishes for instrument panels, glove boxes, consoles, lower covers, pillars, door interior panels, and airbag cover panels, and are manufactured using the In Mold Graining (IMG) method. In addition, the skin interior material is similar in texture to natural leather, and real stitch lines are formed in a sewn form to create a more natural and luxurious feel. The formation of such real stitch lines is achieved by folding the ends of two foam skins together to form a fold line between the seams, sewing the skins on both sides of the fold line together, and separately sewing a stitch line at a position slightly spaced from the fold line on one or both sides, thereby producing a luxurious and natural aesthetic and texture similar to that of real leather sewn and fixed. Also, when molding the skin interior material using an IMG mold, the molding is performed with the skin and core joined together, whereas in the case of a general mold, only the skin material is molded. However, the conventional mold device for forming interior materials described above faces a problem in that it cannot form stitch lines accurately and precisely due to the curvature of the main die used for forming the stitch lines. In other words, the conventional mold device for forming interior materials cannot form the stitch lines of the interior materials precisely and accurately using only the simple joining of the upper and lower dies. Therefore, there is a need to improve this.
