[0002] EPP (Expanded polypropylene) is a highly crystalline polymer / gas composite material with excellent performance, that is, polypropylene plastic foam material. With its unique and superior performance, it has become the fastest growing new environmentally friendly pressure-resistant buffer insulation material. EPP products have excellent shock-absorbing performance, high recovery rate after deformation, good heat resistance, chemical resistance, oil resistance and heat insulation. In addition, its light weight can greatly reduce the weight of items. EPP is also an environmentally friendly material that can be recycled and reused, can be naturally degraded, and will not cause white pollution.

[0003] Due to the above advantages of EPP, its application fields are becoming more and more extensive. For example, IT products, electronic communication equipment, precision instruments and meters have begun to use EPP as packaging materials in large quantities. Another particularly important application field is the large-scale application in the automotive industry: car bumpers, car side shockproof cores, advanced safety car seats, tool boxes, dashboards, etc. According to statistical data: currently each car uses an average of 100 to 130 kg of plastic, of which about 4 to 6 kg of EPP plastic is used. The field of use also includes the boxes used by the current takeaway company's express riders to hold takeaways.

[0004] The existing EPP plasticizing molding machine cannot reasonably adjust the heating temperature and cooling temperature during the production process, resulting in relatively low quality of the products produced by it.

[0013] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:

[0014] 1. After the transfer mold is fixedly installed in the transfer mold frame, the transfer mold frame is driven by the hydraulic system to move the transfer mold toward the fixed mold, so that the fixed mold and the transfer mold are closed and locked; then the mold temperature control system preheats the fixed mold and the transfer mold to make the fixed mold and the transfer mold reach the set preheating temperature; the rear feeding system feeds the fixed mold and the transfer mold cavity through the feeding pipe, and at this time, the air system cooperates with the feeding system to pressurize the feeding into the cavity of the fixed mold and the transfer mold to increase the speed of the material entering the cavity of the fixed mold and the transfer mold, and at the same time make the material more densely distributed in the cavity of the fixed mold and the transfer mold; after the feeding is completed, the steam system is used to heat the cavity of the fixed mold and the transfer mold, so that the materials in the cavity of the fixed mold and the transfer mold are melted and bonded together to form; after a period of forming, cooling water or air is introduced into the cavity of the fixed mold and the transfer mold through the cooling water system and the air system to cool the formed product, so that the formed product A plasticized leather grain layer is formed on the surface of the product, so that the formed plasticized leather grain layer has sufficient hardness and strength; then the vacuum system is used to vacuum the mold cavities of the fixed mold and the mobile mold, on the one hand to cool the molded product, and on the other hand to extract the cooling water in the mold cavities of the fixed mold and the mobile mold; then the hydraulic system moves the mobile mold frame away from the fixed mold, so that the fixed mold and the mobile mold are released from the locked state and then the mold is opened. After the mold opening is completed, the product can be taken out; the steam volume and air flow entering the mold cavities of the fixed mold and the mobile mold after the mold is closed are controlled by the central energy distributor, so that the heating temperature, cooling temperature, heating rate and cooling rate in the mold cavities of the fixed mold and the mobile mold can be adjusted. When the pressure in the mold cavities of the fixed mold and the mobile mold is over-pressured, the mold cavities of the fixed mold and the mobile mold are depressurized by exhausting the central energy distributor to produce excellent products, while also speeding up the production cycle of the products;

[0015] 2. The appearance of the product can be changed by the mold cavity of the fixed mold and the movable mold. Exquisite patterns can be added to the surface of the product to make the appearance of the product more beautiful. The plasticization thickness of the product can be adjusted according to the actual needs of the product. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0030] There are two barrels 7 in this embodiment, which can be used simultaneously or one at a time.

[0031] Combination Figure 1 and Figure 2According to another embodiment of the present invention, the plasticizing-reduction molding machine further includes structural optimization of the hydraulic system.

The mold transfer frame 2 is slidably connected to each guide column 103. The top of the solid mold frame 101 is a square frame 15 with mounting holes formed on the inner side after being connected in sequence by multiple connecting columns.

[0044] like Figure 4 As shown, according to another embodiment of the present invention, the plasticizing reduction molding machine, wherein the feeding system may further include a barrel 19, the bottom plate 20 of the barrel 19 is connected to a plurality of discharge joints 21, a guide baffle 23 is rotatably provided in the barrel 19, the guide baffle 23 divides the barrel 19 into an independent feed chamber 24 and an air guide chamber 28, the feed chamber 24 is connected to the feed port of the barrel 19, and a plurality of discharge holes 29 are evenly distributed on the guide baffle 23, which are connected to the plurality of discharge joints 21 in a one-to-one correspondence, the feed ends of the plurality of discharge joints 21 are slidably abutted against the bottom surface of the guide baffle 23, and the plurality of discharge joints 21 are The feed ends are all located in the air guide cavity 28, and the discharge ends of the multiple discharge connectors 21 are all located outside the barrel 19; the outer walls of the feed ends of the multiple discharge connectors 21 are each provided with a plurality of air guide holes 30 connecting the material guide channels therein with the air guide cavity 28, and the bottom plate 20 of the barrel 19 is evenly distributed with a plurality of air inlet holes connected with the air guide cavity 28; the multiple air guide holes 30 are evenly distributed circumferentially on the outer walls of the feed ends of the multiple discharge connectors 21, and the multiple air guide holes 30 are all arranged obliquely, and the distance between the air inlet of each air guide hole 30 and the discharge end of the discharge connector 21 is greater than the distance between the air outlet of the air guide hole 30 and the discharge end of the discharge connector 21.

[0045] Firstly, the discharge of the barrel 19 is achieved by rotating the guide baffle 23 to enable the multiple discharge holes 29 to be quickly and continuously connected with the multiple discharge joints 21, thereby speeding up the number of connections between the multiple discharge joints 21 and the feed chamber 24 in the barrel 19 per unit time, thereby improving the discharge speed of the barrel 19; secondly, the arrangement of the multiple air guide holes 30 on each discharge joint 21 is so that the air introduced from the air inlet hole enters the air guide chamber 28 and then enters the guide channel of the discharge joint 21 from the multiple air guide holes 30. The air in the guide channel of the discharge joint 21 has the purpose of quickly guiding the raw materials flowing in the guide channel from the feed chamber 24 of the barrel 19 to the discharge end of the discharge joint 21, thereby avoiding blockage in the discharge joint 21 and speeding up the discharge speed of the barrel 19.

The suction and pressure fan is started to form a suction negative pressure in the material guide cylinder 31 through the suction and pressure pipe 32, the pressure pipe and multiple air guide holes, thereby quickly introducing the raw materials into the feed cavity 24 of the barrel 19 through the material guide cylinder 31; and the apertures of the multiple air guide holes are smaller than the particles of the raw materials, so as to prevent the raw materials from passing through the air guide holes and being extracted from the suction and pressure fan through the pressure pipe and the suction and pressure pipe 32.

[0048] In order to speed up the discharge of the barrel 19, a pressurized air pipe 33 connected to a plurality of air guide holes is provided on the outer wall of the barrel 19; when the barrel 19 is discharging, air is introduced from the pressurized air pipe 33 to pressurize the feed chamber 24 of the barrel 19, which can further speed up the discharge of raw materials from the discharge joint 21 and further avoid blockage in the discharge joint 21.

[0049] In order to avoid excessive pressure in the barrel 19, a pressure relief pipe 34 is connected to the pressure extraction pipe 32, and the excess pressure in the barrel 19 is discharged through the pressure relief pipe 34, and solenoid valves are installed on the pressure relief pipe 34 and the pressure guiding pipe; the use status of the pressure relief pipe 34 and the pressure extraction pipe 32 is adjusted by the opening and closing status of the two solenoid valves, so that the feed suction and pressure relief in the barrel 19 can be carried out separately; the solenoid valve on the pressure relief pipe 34 can be an automatic regulating valve. When the pressure in the barrel 19 exceeds the maximum value set by the automatic regulating valve, the automatic regulating valve opens to relieve the pressure in the barrel 19 to ensure that the barrel 19 can operate normally, thereby ensuring that the pressure in the barrel 19 remains stable and the discharge of the barrel 19 is stable; and when the barrel 19 is discharging, the solenoid valve on the pressure guiding pipe can be closed to maintain the pressure in the feed chamber 24 of the barrel 19 to avoid reducing the discharge speed of the barrel 19.

[0051] The bottom plate 20 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the barrel 19 by a fixing sleeve 35, and an annular groove is used to enable the material guide baffle 23 to rotate stably. The structural design of the annular material guide slope 37 is to quickly guide the raw materials in the feed chamber 24 to multiple discharge holes 29, so as to be discharged from multiple discharge joints 21, so as to avoid the raw materials being stuck in the annular groove to affect the rotation efficiency of the material guide baffle 23 and cause dead material.

[0053] During the rotation of the material guide baffle 23, in order to reduce the friction between the material guide baffle 23 and the reinforcement plate 38, a wear-resistant gasket 39 is further arranged between the reinforcement plate 38 and the material guide baffle 23, and the feed end of each discharge joint 21 is fixedly passed through the wear-resistant gasket 39, and the wear-resistant gasket 39 is fixedly connected to the reinforcement plate 38, and the wear-resistant gasket 39 is rotatably attached to the material guide baffle 23; because the wear resistance of the wear-resistant gasket 39 is greater than that of the reinforcement plate 38, the service life of the material guide baffle 23 is extended, and at the same time, the arrangement of the wear-resistant gasket 39 and the material guide baffle 23 improves the stability of the material guide baffle 23 during the rotation process; wherein, the wear-resistant gasket 39 can be a copper gasket.

[0054] Combination Figure 6 and Figure 7 According to another embodiment of the present invention, the plasticizing reduction molding machine also includes structural optimization of each discharge joint 21, and each discharge joint 21 used includes a material guide cylinder 211 passing through a wear-resistant gasket 39, a reinforcement plate 38 and a bottom plate 20 of a material barrel 19, one end of the material guide cylinder 211 is in sliding contact with a material guide partition 23, and the other end of the material guide cylinder 211 is connected to a hose connector 213 placed outside the material barrel 19 through a quick-release connector 212, and an air guide hole 30 is opened on the material guide cylinder 211.

[0055] The hose connector 213 is used to facilitate connection with the feed pipe of the plasticizing reduction molding machine. The quick-release connector 212 is designed to quickly adjust the connection state between the material guide cylinder 211 and the hose connector 213. When the discharge connector 21 discharges materials, it passes through the material guide cylinder 211, the quick-release connector 212 and the hose connector 213 in sequence. The material guide cylinder 211 is also convenient for opening an air guide hole 30.

[0056] like Figure 7As shown, according to another embodiment of the present invention, the plasticizing reduction molding machine further includes a structural optimization of the quick-release joint 212.

[0057] The adjusting sleeve 2124 is moved toward the direction close to the limiting ring 2122, and the annular elastic protrusion 2125 abuts against the adjusting spring 2126 to shrink the adjusting spring 2126. The adjusting sleeve 2124 abuts against the limiting ring 2122 to stop the movement of the adjusting sleeve 2124, so that the annular elastic protrusion 2125 and the plurality of adjusting balls 2123 are out of sliding contact, and the plurality of adjusting balls 2123 abut against the inner wall of the annular groove where the adjusting spring 2126 is not provided, thereby reducing the connection tightness between the hose connector 213 and the connecting sleeve 2121, and the hose connector 213 and the connecting sleeve 2121 are connected. When the connecting sleeve 2121 becomes loose, the hose connector 213 can be taken out from the connecting sleeve 2121, and the hose connector 213 and the connecting sleeve 2121 are disconnected; when the hose connector 213 and the connecting sleeve 2121 are connected, after one end of the hose connector 213 is inserted into the connecting sleeve 2121, the adjusting sleeve 2124 is moved away from the limiting ring 2122, the adjusting spring 2126 is extended, and the annular elastic protrusion 2125 and the multiple adjusting balls 2123 are again abutted against each other, so that the hose connector 213 and the connecting sleeve 2121 are tightly fixedly connected.

[0058] In order to limit the movement of the adjusting sleeve 2124 when the hose connector 213 is connected to the connecting sleeve 2121 and to make the adjustment of the quick-release connector 212 more precise, an annular protrusion 2127 is integrally formed on the outer wall of the connecting sleeve 2121 on one side away from the limiting ring 2122, and the annular protrusion 2127 is slidably set in an annular groove where the adjusting spring 2126 is not set; during the movement of the adjusting sleeve 2124, when the annular elastic protrusion 2125 abuts against the annular protrusion 2127, the annular elastic protrusion 2125 abuts against the multiple adjusting balls 2123 again, so that the hose connector 213 and the connecting sleeve 2121 are tightly fixedly connected.
