Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of amber tea set production, and particularly relates to an automatic production device and a control method for amber tea cups. Background Art

[0002] Amber is an ancient resin fossil. It is an organic compound formed by the deposition, polymerization and geological activities of ancient plant resins. It is an organic gem listed in the National Standard of the People's Republic of China GB / T16552 "Names of Jewelry and Jade". It is transparent or translucent, has a resin luster, a Mohs hardness of 2-2.5, and a density of 1.03-1.08g / cm 3 , refractive index is 1.54.

[0003] Humans have been using amber for more than 7,000 years. Because of its rich colors and exquisite state, people process amber into jewelry to wear or collect. Amber particles or scraps that cannot be used as jewelry are made into large pieces of recycled amber materials through high temperature and high pressure.

[0004] The main components of amber are carbon, hydrogen and oxygen. It is rich in succinic acid, succinosilvic acid, succoxyabietic acid, succinoabietinolic acid, diabietinolic acid, succinoresinol, succinoabietol, borneol, etc. In addition, it also contains trace elements such as sodium, strontium, silicon, iron, tungsten, magnesium, aluminum, cobalt and gallium.

[0005] Amber has extremely high medicinal value. The latest research shows that succinic acid can maintain the acid balance in the human body, enhance human immunity, and is used as a potassium ion inhibitor and antioxidant, with special medicinal value in resisting the aging of human cells.

[0006] Amber softens when heated to about 150°C, melts at about 250°C, and carbonizes above 300°C. Based on the principle of amber pyrolysis evolution, some people use high temperature and high pressure to make broken amber into practical items such as teapots and teacups, turning waste into treasure, and achieving good economic benefits and market recognition.

[0007] The existing amber tea cup pressing equipment includes a press and a mold. The mold includes an upper mold and a lower mold. A heating plate is connected on the plane where the upper mold contacts the pressure head, and a heating plate is connected on the plane where the lower mold contacts the press workbench. A resistance wire is installed in the heating plate, and the mold is placed between the press head and the workbench. When pressing the product, the material is added into the mold, and the resistance wire in the heating plate is manually energized to heat the material in the mold. After the material softens, pressure is applied in sections for pressing. This pressing equipment has the following disadvantages: First, due to the poor thermal conductivity of amber, the material in the lower mold is heated unevenly during heating, and part of the material is oxidized; second, the operator needs to be on duty next to the press to increase the temperature and pressurize based on experience. Due to the large operating error, the pressing temperature and pressure are not accurate enough, resulting in oxidation reaction between the material and the oxygen in the air during pressing and forming, which reduces the transparency of the pressed piece, makes the color dim, and even burns and becomes sticky; third, when the mold temperature is high, the mold needs to be manually knocked for demolding. Low production efficiency and high scrap rate increase production costs. Summary of the invention

[0008] The purpose of the present invention is to solve the problems of uneven material heating, manual operation, low production efficiency and unstable product quality in the existing amber tea cup production equipment, and to provide an automatic amber tea cup production device with high degree of automation, precise control of process conditions, uniform material heating, high production efficiency and stable product quality, and a control method for the automatic amber tea cup production device.

A cup bottom mold 13 is provided at the center of the cup bottom mold fixing plate 9. The cup bottom mold 13 is cylindrical with a convex top. The diameter of the cup bottom mold 13 is larger than the diameter of the cup bottom mold mold hole 33, so that the cup bottom mold 13 will not pass through the cup bottom mold mold hole 33, and the top convex of the cup bottom mold 13 will press against the material in the cup bottom mold mold hole 33, playing a molding role and pressing into a cup bottom. A resistance wire and a thermocouple are provided inside the cylinder of the cup bottom mold 13, and the cup bottom mold resistance wire and the thermocouple are connected through the cup bottom mold resistance wire interface 11 on the side of the cup bottom mold fixing plate 9.

The lower mold plate 1 is formed with an upper mold plate positioning bolt head hole 32 and a lower mold plate positioning bolt rod hole 31. When the upper mold plate 22 and the lower mold plate 1 are pressed together, the bolt head of the lower mold fixing bolt 4 can be inserted into the upper mold plate positioning bolt head hole 32, so that the upper mold plate 22 and the lower mold plate 1 fit together, and the lower mold plate positioning bolt 5 can pass through the lower mold plate positioning bolt rod hole 31. The end of the screw of the lower mold plate positioning bolt 5 is screwed into the thread groove of the cup bottom mold fixing plate 9 to achieve the positioning of the lower mold plate 1 and the lower mold spring 10.

[0030] When the hydraulic press head presses down, the lower mold plate 1 moves downward, and the lower mold spring 10 is compressed, so that the cup bottom mold 13 passes through the lower mold cover plate 6 and presses against the material in the cup bottom mold hole 33. The upper mold plate 22 moves upward, and the upper mold spring 24 is compressed, so that the cup cavity mold 21 passes through the cup cavity mold hole 30 of the upper mold plate 22, and the upper mold body 25 and the lower mold body 2 are pressed together, and the material in the cup mold cavity 34 is pressed into a teacup. When the hydraulic press head rises, the upper mold plate 22 and the lower mold plate 1 are bounced apart by the upper mold spring 24 and the lower mold spring 10.

[0031] The PLC controller 36 is connected to a light-controlled switch, which includes an upper limit light-controlled probe 38, an AB segment limit light-controlled probe 39, a BC segment limit light-controlled probe 40 and a lower limit light-controlled probe 41.

When the output end of the PLC controller sends a descending command, the hydraulic press drives the upper mold to descend for the first time, and when the AB segment limit light-controlled probe 39 detects the upper mold limit point S1, the upper mold stops descending. When the output end of the PLC controller sends a descending command, the hydraulic press drives the upper mold to descend for the second time, and when the BC segment limit light-controlled probe 40 detects the upper mold limit point S1, the upper mold stops descending. When the output end of the PLC controller issues the third descending command, the hydraulic press drives the upper mold to descend for the third time. When the hydraulic press head descends to the hydraulic press compaction limit point S3, the upper mold stops descending, and the upper mold and the lower mold are compacted. When the lower limit optical control probe 41 detects the upper mold limit point S1, the hydraulic press head stops moving downward, which protects the head. When the light of each limit optical control probe irradiates the limit point, the command signal is turned on or off to realize the control of the lifting and lowering of the hydraulic press head and the heating of the resistance wire.

[0032] The present invention adopts Mitsubishi FX2N-32MR PLC, and the programming software used is GX Works2. Temperature is collected through thermocouples, and then the voltage signal is transmitted to the input end of the signal collector. The signal collector transmits the signal to the PLC controller through the FX2N-485-BD communication module. The automatic control button and the light-controlled switch are connected to the input end (DI) of the FX2N-32MR PLC, and the lifting and lowering of the hydraulic press and the heating of the resistance wire are controlled through the output end (DO) of the FX2N-32MR PLC.

The upper limit light-controlled probe (38), the AB segment limit light-controlled probe (39), the BC segment limit light-controlled probe (40) and the lower limit light-controlled probe (41) of the light-controlled probes are sequentially installed on a light-controlled limit probe installation plate (37) at a certain distance from top to bottom. A limit point is installed on the mold of the press head. When the press head moves downward and the light of each limit light-controlled probe irradiates the limit point, the command signal is turned on or off, thereby realizing the control of the lifting and lowering of the press and the heating of the resistance wire.

4. A control method for the automatic production device of amber tea cups according to any one of claims 1 to 3, characterized in that: ① AB section: After the material is loaded into the mold, the automatic button is pressed, and the output terminal of the PLC controller issues a descending command. The press drives the upper mold to descend for the first time. When the AB section limit light control probe (39) detects the upper mold limit point S1, the upper mold stops descending. The program issues a command, and the cup mold resistance wire, cup bottom mold resistance wire, cup cavity mold resistance wire and upper mold plate resistance wire, i.e., 1-4 resistance wires, are heated by resistance. The temperature is set to 240°C. When the temperature reaches 230°C, the timing starts, and the duration is 20 minutes. ② BC section: 20 minutes later, the PLC controller output terminal issues a second descent command, and the press drives the upper mold to descend for the second time. After the BC section limit optical control probe (40) detects the upper mold limit point S1, the upper mold stops descending. Through program instructions, the temperature of the 1-4 resistance wires is set to 180°C. When the temperature reaches 170-185°C, the timing starts, and the duration is 30 minutes. ③ CD segment: 30 minutes later, the PLC controller output terminal issues the third descent command, and the press drives the upper mold to descend for the third time. When the press head drops to the press compaction limit point S3, the upper mold stops descending, and the upper mold and the lower mold are compacted. The program issues a cooling command, and the 1-4 resistance wires begin to cool down. The temperature is set to 110°C. When the temperature of the 1-4 resistance wires reaches 110-114°C, the timing starts, and the duration is 35 minutes. ④ DE section: demoulding stage. After 35 minutes, the PLC controller output terminal issues an upper mold rising command, and the press drives the upper mold to rise. When the AB section limit light control probe (39) detects the upper mold limit point S1, the upper mold stops rising. The program issues a command to continue cooling. The temperature of the 1-4 resistance wires is set to 0℃. After 20 minutes of natural cooling, the alarm is triggered to notify demoulding.
