Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of foam boxes and relates to an injection molding mold, in particular to a foam box injection molding mold. Background Art

[0002] A foam box is a box-type packaging container made of foam plastic. It is often used in the transportation of fruits and the packaging of items. Plastic foam is a plastic with many tiny pores inside. The raw material of the foam box is EPS (expandable polystyrene). The raw material is foamed into the required density (with steam); then the foamed raw material is loaded into the mold for heating and forming, cooled and molded, and the moisture is dried to complete the production of the foam box. The foam box forming mold is the main forming tool for the box body. The process is assisted by high temperature and high pressure. The mold is filled with 3-5 atmospheres to allow air to enter the interior of the granular raw material, and the seal is released instantly in a planned manner. Under the high-intensity air pressure, the EPS granular raw material suddenly foams and expands to form the appearance of an EPS insulation box.

[0003] After searching, it is found that a foam box forming mold is disclosed in Chinese patent documents [Application number: 202222510588.8; Publication number: CN 218256322 U]. A foam box forming mold includes a lower bracket, a lower mold body and a support plate. The upper mold body is fixed to the bottom end of the support plate. The support plate and the lower mold body are connected by a guide structure. The lower mold body is provided with a box cavity inside. A heating unit is provided inside the lower mold body below the box cavity. A cooling water jacket is installed on the outer peripheral surface of the lower mold body. A high-pressure steam inlet is installed on the outer wall of one side of the lower mold body. Both sides of the bottom of the lower mold body are slidably installed with a material removal column, and the bottom end of the material removal column extends to the outside of the lower bracket. The utility model uses two groups of material removal columns to form two demoulding points at the bottom of the foam box to complete the demoulding operation of the foam box. In this process, there is no need for the staff to manually deduct the workpiece, which effectively reduces the breakage rate of the workpiece, improves the yield rate of the foam box, and reduces the downtime gap of the mold, thereby improving the processing efficiency of the mold.

[0004] Although this patent does not require workers to manually pick up workpieces, if the particles are unevenly distributed when pouring them into the mold, it will easily lead to uneven thickness of the foam box, affecting the quality of the product. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of the utility model is to solve the above-mentioned problems in the existing technology and propose a foam box injection molding mold. The technical problem to be solved by the utility model is: how to make it convenient for personnel to collect the molded foam boxes and reduce the gaps between the material bodies during pressing to make them evenly distributed and reduce the retention of bubbles.

[0006] The purpose of the utility model can be achieved through the following technical solutions:

[0007] A foam box injection molding mold comprises an auxiliary frame and a pair of assembled molds slidably connected to the auxiliary frame, wherein a driving component is arranged inside the auxiliary frame to control the movement of the assembled mold, a pressing frame is vertically fixed to one side of the auxiliary frame, a pressing plate is slidably connected to the pressing frame, a regulating component for controlling the height of the pressing plate is arranged inside the pressing frame, a pressing block is fixed to the bottom of the pressing plate, and a vibration component is arranged inside the assembly mold.

[0008] The working principle of the utility model is that the combination of the assembly mold can be controlled by the driving component, and the assembled assembly mold can perform foam box injection molding normally. After the foam box is formed, the assembly mold can be controlled to separate, so that personnel can collect the molded foam box conveniently. When the foam box is injected, the pressing block is pressed down by the regulating component so that the pressing block penetrates into the assembly mold to squeeze the material body. At the same time of squeezing, the heating unit in the pressing block is started to heat the material body. At the same time, the vibration component is started to drive the assembly mold to vibrate, thereby reducing the gap between the material bodies during pressing, making the material evenly distributed and reducing the retention of bubbles.

[0009] A cooling cavity is provided in the assembly mold, and a liquid infusion pipeline is arranged on the pressing plate. One end of the liquid infusion pipeline is divided into a plurality of branch pipelines connected to the cooling cavity, and the other end of the liquid infusion pipeline is connected to the output end of the coolant conveying device.

[0010] With the above structure, the coolant can be transported to the cooling chamber through the coolant delivery device through the delivery pipeline, which assists in rapid cooling of the assembly mold and accelerates the shaping of the foam box.

[0011] The driving assembly includes a driving motor fixed in the auxiliary frame and a bidirectional lead screw rotatably connected in the auxiliary frame. A transmission gear 1 is coaxially fixed on the output end of the driving motor, and a transmission gear 2 is coaxially fixedly connected to the bidirectional lead screw. The transmission gear 1 is meshed with the transmission gear 2. The two assembly molds are respectively threadedly connected to one end of the corresponding bidirectional lead screw.

[0012] By adopting the above structure, the driving motor can be used to drive the transmission gear 1 to rotate. After the transmission gear 1 rotates, it will engage with the transmission gear 2 to drive the transmission gear 2 to rotate. The transmission gear 2 then drives the bidirectional lead screw to rotate. The bidirectional lead screw is further connected to the corresponding assembly mold through a thread, thereby driving the assembly mold to move in relative or opposite directions.

[0013] The regulating component includes a driving screw vertically rotatably connected in the pressing frame and a regulating motor fixed in the auxiliary frame. The output end of the regulating motor is fixedly connected to the driving screw coaxially, and the driving screw is threadedly connected to the pressing plate.

[0014] With the above structure, the driving screw can be driven to rotate by adjusting the motor, and the driving screw is connected to the pressing plate through the thread, so as to drive the pressing plate to move up and down.

[0015] The vibration assembly comprises a motor fixed in the assembly mold and an eccentric wheel coaxially fixedly connected to the output end of the motor.

[0016] By adopting the above structure, the eccentric wheel can be driven by the motor to rotate, generating centrifugal force, causing the assembly mold to vibrate as a whole, reducing the gap between the materials during pressing, and reducing the retention of bubbles. In addition, since the assembly mold needs to be heated and cooled quickly, the temperature changes frequently. In order to prevent the motor from malfunctioning due to this reason, the motor is fixed in the extended part of the bidirectional lead screw threaded to the assembly mold.

[0017] Compared with the prior art, this foam box forming mold has the following advantages:

[0018] 1. The combination of the assembly mold is controlled by the driving component. The assembled assembly mold can perform foam box injection molding normally. When the foam box is formed, the assembly mold can be controlled to separate, which is convenient for personnel to collect the molded foam box when performing foam box injection molding.

[0019] 2. The motor drives the eccentric wheel to rotate, generating centrifugal force, causing the assembled mold to vibrate as a whole, reducing the gap between the materials during pressing, making them evenly distributed and reducing the retention of bubbles.

[0020] 3. The coolant is transported to the cooling chamber through the coolant delivery device through the infusion pipeline to assist the assembly mold to cool down quickly and accelerate the shaping of the foam box. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0030] With the above structure, the coolant can be delivered to the cooling chamber 8 through the coolant delivery device via the delivery pipe 9, thereby assisting the assembly mold 2 to cool down quickly and accelerating the shaping of the foam box.

[0031] The driving component 3 includes a driving motor 10 fixed in the auxiliary frame 1 and a bidirectional lead screw 11 rotatably connected in the auxiliary frame 1.
