Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of injection molding equipment, in particular to an automatic feeding machine of an injection molding machine. BACKGROUND

[0002] The injection molding machine is the core equipment in the field of plastic injection processing, and its main function is to mold thermoplastic or fixed plastic into specified plastic products through high-pressure injection. The feeding structure of the injection molding machine is the initial channel for the raw material to enter the plasticizing system, and is mainly responsible for the conveying and feeding of the raw material.

[0003] The patent document with publication number CN107283772B discloses an injection molding mechanism for an injection molding machine. It includes a barrel shell, a smelting cavity is arranged in the barrel shell, a barrel feeding port and an exhaust port are arranged at the side wall of the barrel shell, a nozzle structure is arranged at one end of the barrel shell opposite to the feeding port; a heating device is arranged outside the barrel shell, and a heat recovery pipeline is wound outside the heating device; the heat recovery pipeline and the exhaust port are connected with the high-temperature medium inlet of the heat exchanger through the first valve and the second valve respectively, and the high-temperature medium outlet of the heat exchanger is provided with a first pump body; the nozzle structure includes a nozzle body, the nozzle body includes a nozzle seat, a hollow connecting sleeve is connected to the left side of the nozzle seat, and a nozzle head is connected to the left side of the hollow connecting sleeve. During processing, the raw material is added into the barrel through the feeding port, and then the raw material is conveyed to the heating device through the feeding port of the barrel. After the raw material is heated and melted by the heating device, the melted raw material is injected into the closed mold cavity through the nozzle structure for injection molding processing.

[0004] However, the following problems still exist in this scheme. When the temperature of the heating section behind the heating device of the injection molding machine is too high, heat will be conducted to the feeding port area, causing the raw material to soften or even melt before entering the heating device. The melted plastic particles adhere to each other to form a bridge, blocking the feeding channel and hindering the entry of new material. This phenomenon is more common for low-melting-point raw materials. Although a cooling device is usually arranged at the feeding port on a general injection molding machine, when the cooling waterway is blocked or the cooling efficiency is insufficient, the heat conducted by the heating device cannot be effectively offset, and the raw material will still melt. Once the melting phenomenon occurs, the blockage of the feeding port will gradually become serious, and the injection molding machine needs to be stopped for cleaning, which seriously affects the injection molding efficiency. SUMMARY

[0005] The present application provides an automatic feeding machine of an injection molding machine, which aims to solve the problem of raw material melting in the feeding port caused by heat transfer from the heating device in related technology.

[0006] The automatic feeding machine for injection molding machines of the present invention includes a feeding pipe installed at the bottom of the hopper and a heating cylinder communicating with the lower end of the feeding pipe. It also includes a control component, a drive component, and an adjustment component. The control component includes a control ring rotatably sleeved outside the heating cylinder and a control plate slidably mounted outside the control ring. A through-hole is provided on the control ring, which is located at the connection between the feeding pipe and the heating cylinder. The drive component is connected to the control ring to drive its rotation. The adjustment component cooperates with the control plate to move the control plate up and down within the feeding pipe. When the through-hole corresponds to the feeding pipe, the feeding pipe communicates with the heating cylinder for feeding. After feeding is completed, the drive component drives the control ring to rotate. When the control plate rotates to the feeding pipe, it closes the lower end of the feeding pipe. Subsequently, the adjustment component drives the control plate upward to separate from the control ring, pushing the raw material in the feeding pipe into the hopper.

[0007] The effect is that the raw material is placed in the hopper and enters the heating cylinder through the feed pipe. During feeding, the inlet is located directly below the feed pipe, and the bottom of the feed pipe is connected to the heating cylinder. The raw material enters the heating cylinder. After feeding is completed, the drive component drives the control ring to rotate, causing the inlet to separate from the feed pipe. At the same time, the control plate rotates to the bottom of the feed pipe, closing the lower end of the feed port. Then, the adjustment component drives the control plate to move upward from the bottom of the feed pipe, pushing the raw material in the feed pipe upward into the hopper. This reduces the heat generated by the heating cylinder during heating, which is transferred to the feed pipe and causes the raw material in the feed pipe to melt. This reduces the possibility of blockage in the feed pipe and improves injection molding efficiency.

[0009] The effect is that when the control plate moves upward, it separates from the placement groove. At the same time, since the placement groove does not penetrate the control ring, the control ring remains in a blocking state on the feed pipe when the control plate and the control ring separate, reducing the phenomenon of raw materials in the heating cylinder entering the feed pipe. This ensures that there is no raw material between the control plate and the control ring, and guarantees that there is no raw material residue in the feed pipe during heating.

When the control plate is located in the placement groove, guide groove one and guide groove two are on the same arc surface. When the opening is separated from the feed pipe, the end of the guide rod slides from guide groove one into guide groove two.

[0011] The effect is that when the control plate rotates to below the feeding pipe with the control ring, the end of the guide rod moves into the guide groove two from the guide groove one, at this time the guide rod cooperates with the control plate through the guide groove two, the power member one drives the guide rod to move upward, the guide rod drives the control plate to move upward, the position of the control plate is adjusted, when feeding again, the guide rod drives the control plate to reset, at this time the guide groove one and the guide groove two are on the same arc surface, the control ring rotates, so that the end of the guide rod separates from the guide groove two and cooperates with the guide groove one.

In addition, when the through hole corresponds to the feeding pipe, the side surface of the control ring corresponds to the auxiliary port, so that the auxiliary port is in a closed state, avoiding the phenomenon that the raw materials in the heating cylinder flow out from the auxiliary port.

[0018] Preferably, an arc surface is arranged on the side of the auxiliary plate close to the control ring, and the arc surface slidingly abuts against the outside of the control ring.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0037] The embodiments of the present application are described in detail below, examples of which are shown in the accompanying drawings. The embodiments described below by referring to the accompanying drawings are exemplary, and are intended to explain the present application, and cannot be understood as a limitation of the present application.

[0038] As Figures 1 to 9 shown, the automatic feeding machine of the injection molding machine of the application is installed on the rack 1, and an injection mold 11 for injection molding is arranged on the rack 1. The discharge end of the feeding machine cooperates with the injection mold 11 to supply material to the injection mold 11. The feeding machine includes a hopper 2 and a heating cylinder 3 installed on the rack 1. The hopper 2 is located above the heating cylinder 3, and the heating cylinder 3 is horizontally placed. A feeding pipe 21 is arranged at the bottom of the hopper 2 and communicates with the heating cylinder 3. The raw material in the hopper 2 enters the heating cylinder 3 through the feeding pipe 21, and after being heated and melted in the heating cylinder 3, it is fed into the injection mold 11 for injection molding.

[0039] Referring to Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 4 , Figure 5 , the control assembly 4, the driving assembly 5 and the adjusting assembly 6 are arranged on the rack 1. The driving assembly 5 cooperates with the control assembly 4 to control the closing of the feeding pipe 21, and the adjusting assembly 6 cooperates with the control assembly 4 to push the raw material remaining in the feeding pipe 21 into the hopper 2 after the feeding pipe 21 is closed. After the feeding is completed, the raw material is prevented from remaining in the feeding pipe 21, thereby preventing the raw material in the feeding pipe 21 from melting due to heat transfer from the heating cylinder 3, so as to reduce the phenomenon of blockage of the feeding pipe 21 and improve the stability of feeding.

[0040] Referring to Figure 2 , Figure 3 , the feeding pipe 21 is vertically arranged above the heating cylinder 3. The mounting block 7 is arranged outside the heating cylinder 3 and at the connection between the feeding pipe 21 and the heating cylinder 3. The mounting groove 71 is formed in the mounting block 7, and the control assembly 4 is arranged in the mounting groove 71.

[0041] Referring to Figure 3 , Figure 4 , Figure 5 , the control assembly 4 includes a control ring 41 and a control plate 42. The control ring 41 is sleeved outside the heating cylinder 3 and is rotatably arranged outside the heating cylinder 3, i.e. the control ring 41 is rotatably arranged in the mounting groove 71. The feeding pipe 21 is provided with a clearance groove 211 at the lower end thereof, and the control ring 41 is installed directly below the feeding pipe 21 through the clearance groove 211. The control plate 42 is slidably arranged on the control ring 41. The control ring 41 is provided with a through hole 411, and the through hole 411 penetrates the control ring 41. The outer diameter of the control plate 42 is the same as the inner wall of the feeding pipe 21, i.e. when the control plate 42 slides upward in the feeding pipe 21, the raw material in the feeding pipe 21 can be pushed into the hopper 2.

[0042] The driving assembly 5 is connected with the control ring 41 to drive the control ring 41 to rotate. The adjusting assembly 6 is connected with the control plate 42 to adjust the position of the control plate 42.

[0043] When the material is fed, the through hole 411 is located directly below the feeding pipe 21 and corresponds to the bottom of the feeding pipe 21, at this time, the feeding pipe 21 is in communication with the inside of the heating cylinder 3 through the through hole 411, and the raw material in the hopper 2 enters the heating cylinder 3 through the feeding pipe 21 and the through hole 411. After the feeding is completed, the driving assembly 5 drives the control ring 41 to rotate, the control plate 42 rotates with the control ring 41, the control ring 41 rotates to drive the through hole 411 away from the feeding pipe 21, and at the same time, the control plate 42 is driven to move close to the feeding pipe 21, until the control plate 42 rotates to the lower side of the feeding pipe 21, at this time, the feeding pipe 21 is in a closed state, and the feeding into the heating cylinder 3 is stopped, and then the adjusting assembly 6 drives the control plate 42 to move upward from the bottom of the feeding pipe 21, so that the control plate 42 is separated from the control ring 41, and at the same time, the raw material in the feeding pipe 21 is pushed into the hopper 2, so as to clean the raw material in the feeding pipe 21 after the feeding is completed.

[0044] When the control plate 42 moves to the upper end of the feeding pipe 21, the movement is stopped, when it is needed to feed again, the adjusting assembly 6 drives the control plate 42 to move downward, and drives the control plate 42 to cooperate with the control ring 41 again, and then the driving assembly 5 drives the control ring 41 to rotate, and drives the control plate 42 to separate from the feeding pipe 21, until the through hole 411 rotates to the lower side of the feeding pipe 21, so as to feed again.

[0045] Referring to Figure 5 , Figure 6 , Figure 7 , the outer side of the control ring 41 is provided with a placing groove 412, the placing groove 412 does not penetrate the control ring 41, the control plate 42 is arranged in the placing groove 412, and the control plate 42 slides in the placing groove 412 towards the axis direction of the control ring 41. At the same time, the control plate 42 can slide to separate from the placing groove 412.

[0046] When the control plate 42 rotates to the feeding pipe 21, the control ring 41 blocks the communication between the feeding pipe 21 and the heating cylinder 3, and when the control plate 42 moves upward, the phenomenon that the raw material in the heating cylinder 3 enters the feeding pipe 21 is reduced. And when the control plate 42 moves upward, the raw material is avoided to exist between the control plate 42 and the control ring 41, the phenomenon that the raw material in the feeding pipe 21 melts is reduced, and the control plate 42 is facilitated to move downward again into the placing groove 412.

[0047] Referring to Figure 6 , Figure 7 , Figure 8The inner side of the control ring 41 is in rotational abutment with the heating cylinder 3, and the outer side is in rotational abutment with the bottom of the feeding pipe 21, so as to ensure the sealing between the control ring 41 and the heating cylinder 3 and the feeding pipe 21, and reduce the leakage of raw materials.

[0048] The control plate 42 is arranged in an arc shape around the axis of the control ring 41, so that when the control plate 42 is located in the placing groove 412, the outer side of the control plate 42 is located on the same circular arc surface as the outer side of the control ring 41, so that the control ring 41 can drive the control plate 42 to rotate synchronously when rotating, and the phenomenon that the control plate 42 interferes with the rotation of the control ring 41 is reduced.

[0049] Referring to Figure 5 The driving assembly 5 comprises a driving member 51, a gear 52 and a gear ring 53. The driving member 51 is arranged as a motor. The gear 52 is arranged at the output end of the driving member 51. The gear ring 53 is arranged on the side surface of the control ring 41 and coaxially arranged with the control ring 41. The gear 52 is in meshing connection with the gear ring 53. The driving member 51 drives the gear ring 53 to rotate through the gear 52, and then drives the control ring 41 to rotate, so as to adjust the positions of the through hole 411 and the control plate 42. The gear ring 53 is in a semi-circular ring shape, and the gear ring 53 is arranged away from the feeding pipe 21, that is, the gear ring 53 does not contact the feeding pipe 21 when the control ring 41 rotates, so as to ensure the sealing of the cooperation between the control ring 41 and the feeding pipe 21.

[0050] Referring to Figure 3 , Figure 5 , Figure 6 , Figure 9 The adjusting assembly 6 comprises a power member 61 and a guide rod 62. The power member 61 is arranged as a pneumatic cylinder. The power member 61 is installed on the hopper 2 and arranged in a vertical direction. The guide rod 62 is connected with the output end of the power member 61, that is, the piston rod of the pneumatic cylinder. The guide rod 62 is arranged in a vertical direction and extends through the hopper 2 to be connected with the control plate 42 in the feeding pipe 21. A guide groove 413 is arranged on the outer side of the control ring 41, and a guide groove 421 is arranged on the outer side of the control plate 42. The guide grooves 413 and 421 are arranged in an arc shape around the axis of the control ring 41. The guide groove 413 is located between the placing groove 412 and the through hole 411. When the control plate 42 is located in the placing groove 412, the guide grooves 413 and 421 are located on the same circular arc surface. The end of the guide rod 62 away from the power member 61 is provided with a clamping portion 621, and the clamping portion 621 is arranged in sliding connection in the guide grooves 413 and 421.

[0051] When the through hole 411 is located below the feeding pipe 21, the guide rod 62 is matched with the guide groove one 413 through the clamping part 621, when the control ring 41 rotates, the control plate 42 is driven to be close to the feeding pipe 21, the clamping part 621 is separated from the guide groove one 413 through sliding, and meanwhile, the clamping part 621 is buckled with the guide groove two 421, at this time, the guide rod 62 is matched with the control plate 42 through the clamping part 621, when the control plate 42 rotates to be directly below the feeding pipe 21, the clamping part 621 moves to the end of the guide groove two 421 which is away from the guide groove one 413. Then, the power part one 61 drives the guide rod 62 to move upward, the guide rod 62 drives the control plate 42 to move upward through the clamping part 621, and then the position of the control plate 42 is adjusted.

[0052] With reference to Figure 2 , Figure 3 , the outer side of the control ring 41 is in sliding abutment with the inner wall of the mounting groove 71, when the control plate 42 is separated from the feeding pipe 21, the control ring 41 drives the control plate 42 to rotate to be in the mounting groove 71, at this time, the outer side of the control plate 42 is in sliding abutment with the inner wall of the mounting groove 71, and meanwhile, the inner wall of the mounting groove 71 limits the control plate 42, so as to reduce the phenomenon that the control plate 42 is separated from the placing groove 412, and the clamping part 621 can be buckled with the guide groove two 421 again when the control ring 41 rotates subsequently.

[0053] With reference to Figure 5 , Figure 6 , the control plate 42 is provided with an extension part 422, the extension part 422 is arranged on the side of the control plate 42 which is away from the guide groove one 413, a sliding groove 212 is arranged on the inner wall of the feeding pipe 21, the sliding groove 212 is arranged in the vertical direction, and the guide rod 62 is slidingly assembled in the sliding groove 212. When the control plate 42 rotates to be directly below the feeding pipe 21, the extension part 422 corresponds to the sliding groove 212.

[0054] The guide rod 62 drives the control plate 42 to move through the extension part 422, and in the process of moving of the control plate 42, the extension part 422 slides in the sliding groove 212. Meanwhile, the guide rod 62 is arranged in the sliding groove 212, so that the control plate 42 can completely cover all parts of the feeding pipe 21 when the control plate 42 moves, and the raw materials in the feeding pipe 21 are pushed into the hopper 2.

[0055] With reference to Figure 3 , Figure 5 , an auxiliary assembly 8 is arranged in the mounting block 7, the auxiliary assembly 8 comprises: a power part two 81 and an auxiliary plate 82, the power part two 81 is arranged as a pneumatic cylinder, the power part two 81 is arranged in the direction of the axis of the control ring 41, the auxiliary plate 82 is arranged at the output end of the power part, and the size of the auxiliary plate 82 corresponds to the through hole 411. An auxiliary opening 31 is arranged on the side of the heating cylinder 3, and the auxiliary opening 31 corresponds to the auxiliary plate 82.

[0056] When the through hole 411 is located at the feeding pipe 21, the control ring 41 blocks the auxiliary hole 31. Since there is a part of raw materials remaining in the through hole 411 when the through hole 411 is separated from the feeding pipe 21, when the control plate 42 is rotated to the feeding pipe 21, the through hole 411 is rotated to the auxiliary hole 31, then the power member two 81 drives the auxiliary plate 82 to move, the auxiliary plate 82 pushes the raw materials remaining in the through hole 411 into the heating cylinder 3 through the auxiliary hole 31, which reduces the melting phenomenon of the raw materials remaining in the through hole 411, and further reduces the blocking phenomenon when feeding again.

[0057] With reference to Figure 3 , Figure 5 , the side of the auxiliary plate 82 close to the control ring 41 is provided with an arc surface, and the arc surface is in sliding abutment with the outer side of the control ring 41. When the control ring 41 rotates, the auxiliary plate 82 abuts against the side of the control ring 41, so as to reduce the phenomenon that the raw materials enter between the auxiliary plate 82 and the control ring 41.

[0059] The driving member two 91 drives the stirring rod 92 to rotate, and the stirring rod 92 drives the pusher sheet 93 to rotate, so as to push the raw materials into the heating cylinder 3 for subsequent processing.

[0060] With reference to Figure 9 , the stirring rod 92 is parallel to the guide rod 62, and the stirring rod 92 comprises an outer rod 921 and an inner rod 922. The outer rod 921 is slidably assembled outside the inner rod 922, that is, the outer rod 921 and the inner rod 922 can synchronously rotate. The inner rod 922 is connected with the output end of the driving member two 91, and the pusher sheet 93 is connected with the outer rod 921. The connecting rod 622 is arranged on the guide rod 62 and is arranged horizontally. The connecting ring 623 is arranged at the end of the connecting rod 622 away from the guide rod 62 and is rotatably sleeved outside the outer rod 921.

[0061] The driving member two 91 drives the pushing piece 93 to rotate through the inner rod 922 and the outer rod 921, and the outer rod 921 rotates in the connecting ring 623. When the guide rod 62 moves upwards to drive the control plate 42 to move in the feeding pipe 21, the outer rod 921 is driven to move synchronously through the connecting rod 622 and the connecting ring 623, and the pushing piece 93 is driven to move upwards synchronously. Then, the pushing piece 93 and the control plate 42 move upwards synchronously, and after the control plate 42 pushes the raw materials in the feeding pipe 21 into the hopper 2, the pushing piece 93 is also located in the hopper 2, so that the phenomenon of mutual interference of the pushing piece 93 and the control plate 42 is reduced.

[0062] Referring to Figure 1 、 Figure 2 A plurality of heating modules 33 are arranged on the side of the heating cylinder 3. The raw materials in the hopper 2 enter the heating cylinder 3, the driving motor 12 drives the spiral pushing piece 32 to drive the raw materials to move to the heating module 33 for heating, and after the raw materials are heated and melted, the raw materials are continuously pushed to be injected into the injection mold 11 for molding processing.

[0063] The implementation principle of the present application is that when the raw materials are fed, the through hole 411 is located directly below the feeding pipe 21, at this time, the feeding pipe 21 is in communication with the inside of the heating cylinder 3, the raw materials are added into the hopper 2, and the driving member two 91 drives the inner rod 922 and the outer rod 921 to rotate to drive the pushing piece 93 to rotate to transport the raw materials into the heating cylinder 3.

[0064] After the feeding is completed, the driving member one 51 drives the control ring 41 to rotate through the gear 52 and the gear ring 53, the control ring 41 drives the through hole 411 to separate from the feeding pipe 21, after the through hole 411 completely separates from the feeding pipe 21, the side of the control ring 41 corresponds to the bottom of the feeding pipe 21 to block the bottom of the feeding pipe 21, and at the same time, the control plate 42 rotates into the feeding pipe 21, the end of the guide rod 62 slides into the guide groove two 421 through the guide groove one 413, at this time, the guide rod 62 cooperates with the control plate 42.

[0065] The power member one 61 drives the guide rod 62 to move upwards, the guide rod 62 drives the control plate 42 to move upwards, the control plate 42 moves to push the raw materials in the feeding pipe 21 into the hopper 2, when the control plate 42 moves upwards, the control plate 42 separates from the control ring 41, the control ring 41 keeps blocking the bottom of the feeding pipe 21, so that there is no raw material between the control plate 42 and the control ring 41 after the control plate 42 separates, the phenomenon that the raw materials in the heating cylinder 3 enter the feeding pipe 21 is reduced, and the control plate 42 is conveniently moved downwards to reset.

[0066] By moving the control plate 42 to push the raw material in the feeding pipe 21 into the hopper 2, there is no residual raw material in the feeding pipe 21 when the heating cylinder 3 heats the raw material, so as to reduce the phenomenon that the raw material in the feeding pipe 21 melts due to the heat transfer of the heating cylinder 3 to the feeding pipe 21. The stability of the feeding is improved, and the injection molding efficiency is improved.

[0067] Although the embodiments of the present application have been shown and described above, it should be understood by those skilled in the art that the above embodiments are exemplary and cannot be construed as limiting the present application, and those skilled in the art can make changes, modifications, replacements and variations to the above embodiments within the scope of the present application.
