Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of injection molding production equipment technology, and more particularly to an injection molding production line. Background Technology
[0002] Currently, many internal injection-molded components for mobile phones require pre-embedded metal sheets. Pre-embedded injection molding involves fixing the pre-embedded part in a suitable position within the mold before injecting plastic. To meet the structural strength and functional requirements of mobile phone injection-molded parts, two metal sheets of different materials need to be pre-embedded. Currently, this is generally done manually. Two different metal segments are first prepared using cutting or stamping equipment. The two metal segments are then manually placed in the corresponding positions on the lower mold of the injection molding machine. The injection molding machine is then started, and the molded product is manually removed from the machine, the sprue is separated, and the molded product is collected for subsequent metal scrap separation to obtain the final injection-molded product. This manual process involves too many steps, resulting in high labor intensity, difficulty in improving production efficiency, and an increased risk of safety accidents. The manual separation of the sprue is labor-intensive, and handling the injection-molded product may affect its shape. Furthermore, manual feeding is prone to errors in the feeding sequence and direction of the metal strips, resulting in low production efficiency and inconsistent injection-molded products, which can affect subsequent processing steps or product quality. Some injection molding processes now use automated feeding, typically employing positioning pins on the mold. These pins engage with positioning holes on the metal strip to ensure it lands at the designated position. However, due to manufacturing errors or wear, the feeding equipment may sometimes deviate from the intended position, placing the metal strip on the mold and resulting in inaccurate feeding and the production of defective products.
[0003] In addition, the internal structural components of mobile phone injection molded parts are relatively small, and the requirements for positioning accuracy and product dimensional accuracy during the production process are particularly high. Therefore, we propose an injection molding production line. Summary of the Invention

[0044] The present invention provides an injection molding production line, the structure of which is as follows: Figures 1-20As shown, it includes: a loading worktable 1, an injection molding worktable 2, and a receiving worktable 3 arranged in sequence.

[0045] The left feeding mechanism 10 includes a material roll rack 11 located on one side of the feeding workbench 1. The material roll rack 11 is provided with a feeding roll 12, and the feeding roll 12 is provided with a material strip 4. The material strip 4 is a roll of material, and a recycling roll is provided below the feeding roll 12 for recycling the packaging paper on the material strip 4. The loading workbench 1 is equipped with a conveying device 13 and a segmenting device 14 corresponding to the unloading coil 12. The conveying device 13 includes a conveying platform 131 located above the loading workbench 1. The conveying platform 131 is equipped with a corresponding conveying base 132 and a conveying top cover 133. A conveying longitudinal groove 134 is formed between the conveying base 132 and the conveying top cover 133.

The storage plate 145 is provided with a storage groove 146 corresponding to the limiting groove 144. The segmentation cylinder 141 drives the limiting component 143 to move upward, dividing the material belt 4 into material belt segments of predetermined length.
[0046] The upper right feeding mechanism 20 includes a feeding base plate 21 located on one side of the storage plate 145. The feeding base plate 21 has several feeding positioning rods 22 and lifting through holes 23. A feeding bin 24 is formed between the feeding positioning rods 22. Material segments 5, stamped by a stamping machine, are stacked inside the feeding bin 24. Both the material strip 4 and the material segments 5 have corresponding positioning holes. The feeding bin 24 is correspondingly arranged with the storage tank 146. A lifting drive device 25 is located below the feeding bin 24. The lifting drive device 25 has vertical lifting rods 26, which are correspondingly arranged with the lifting through holes 23.
[0047] The feeding mechanism 30 is located above the conveying device 13. The feeding mechanism 30 includes a first fixed platform 31 located above the conveying device 13. A first horizontal slide 32 is provided on the first fixed platform 31. A first horizontal slider 33 is provided on the first horizontal slide 32. A first connecting plate 34 is provided on the first horizontal slider 33. A first longitudinal slide 35 is located below the first connecting plate 34. A first longitudinal slider 36 is provided on the first longitudinal slide 35 and is connected to the first connecting plate 34. A feeding plate 39 is located at the front end of the first longitudinal slide 35. A left pick-and-place device 37 and a right pick-and-place device 38 are respectively located on both sides of the feeding plate 39. The left pick-and-place device 37 includes a vertical left pick-and-place cylinder 371 located on one side of the feeding plate 39. A horizontal upper left pick-and-place plate 372 is located at the lower end of the guide rod of the left pick-and-place cylinder 371. The two ends of the upper left pick-and-place plate 372 are connected by left linear bearings. 373 is slidably connected to a vertical left guide post 374. The bottom end of the left guide post 374 is provided with a horizontal lower left pick-and-place plate 375. The lower end of the lower left pick-and-place plate 375 is provided with a left suction cup 376, which is correspondingly positioned to the storage groove 146. The lower left pick-and-place plate 375 is provided with two corresponding left positioning posts 377. The right pick-and-place device 38 includes a vertical right pick-and-place cylinder 381 located on the other side of the feeding plate 39. The guide post 381... The lower end of the rod is provided with an upper right pick-up and drop plate 382. The two ends of the upper right pick-up and drop plate 382 are slidably connected to right guide posts through right linear bearings 383. The bottom end of the right guide post is provided with a horizontal lower right pick-up and drop plate 384. The lower end of the lower right pick-up and drop plate 384 is provided with a right suction cup 385. The right suction cup 385 is correspondingly set with the material storage bin 24. The lower right pick-up and drop plate 384 is provided with two corresponding right positioning posts 386. The left positioning post 377 is correspondingly set with the right positioning post 386.
[0048] The first horizontal slide 32 and the first vertical slide 35 can drive the left pick-and-place device 37 and the right pick-and-place device 38 to move horizontally or vertically, respectively. When the first horizontal slide 32 drives the right pick-and-place device 38 to move vertically, the material segment 5 can be picked up. Then, along with the material strip segment picked up by the left pick-and-place device 37 in the storage tank 146, the first vertical slide 35 drives the left pick-and-place device 37 and the right pick-and-place device 38 to feed the material towards the injection molding mechanism 40.
[0049] The injection molding mechanism 40 includes a lower mold 41 disposed on the injection molding worktable 2. The lower mold 41 is provided with a positioning hole 411 corresponding to the left positioning post 377. An injection device 42 is disposed above the lower mold 41, and an upper mold is disposed at the bottom end of the injection device 42 corresponding to the lower mold 41.
[0050] The lower mold 41 and the storage tank 146 can be correspondingly set. When the first longitudinal slide 35 drives the left pick-and-place device 37 and the right pick-and-place device 38 to the loading position, the entire left pick-and-place device 37 reaches directly above the lower mold 41. Usually, the lower mold 41 is provided with positioning pins corresponding to the positioning holes on the material strip 4 and the material strip 5. If the left positioning pin 377 is directly above the positioning hole 411, the guide rod of the left pick-and-place cylinder 371 extends downward, and the lower left pick-and-place plate 375 drives the left positioning pin 377 to move into the positioning hole 411 for complete engagement. The end of the left positioning pin 377 is tapered, which has a guiding function. If there is a significant deviation between the left positioning post 377 and the positioning hole 411, after the guide rod of the left pick-up cylinder 371 extends downwards, due to gravity, the distance between the upper left pick-up plate 372 and the lower left pick-up plate 375 remains unchanged. The lower left pick-up plate 375 drives the left positioning post 377 downwards until it is blocked by other positions near the positioning hole 411. At this point, the lower left pick-up plate 375 stops moving, while the upper left pick-up plate 372 continues to move downwards. Compared to the case where the left positioning post 377 has no positional deviation during loading, when the guide rod of the left pick-up cylinder 371 moves to its lowest position, the travel distance of the upper left pick-up plate 372 remains unchanged, while the travel distance of the lower left pick-up plate 375 decreases. The sensor between the upper left pick-up plate 372 and the lower left pick-up plate 375 detects the decrease in the travel distance of the lower left pick-up plate 375 and sends an alarm signal, immediately adjusting the loading position to prevent excessive deviation in the loading position from affecting the quality of the injection molded part. During the contact between the left positioning post 377 and the lower die 41, excessive squeezing wear will not occur between the left positioning post 377 and the lower die 41 due to the continued downward pressure of the guide rod of the left pick-and-place cylinder 371. The right pick-and-place device 38 also has high accuracy in loading position and will not wear down the lower die 41. Storage positioning holes corresponding to the left positioning post 377 can also be provided on the storage plate 145 to further improve the accuracy of the loading position.
[0051] The unloading mechanism 50 includes a second fixed platform 51 located above the receiving workbench 3. A second connecting plate 52 is located below the second fixed platform 51. A second longitudinal slide 53 is located at the bottom end of the second connecting plate 52. A second longitudinal slider 54 is located on the second longitudinal slide 53. The second longitudinal slider 54 is connected to the second connecting plate 52. A longitudinal unloading cylinder 55 is located at the rear end of the second longitudinal slide 54. A unloading pick-and-place device 56 is located at the lower end of the guide rod of the unloading cylinder 55. The unloading pick-and-place device 56 is correspondingly arranged with the lower mold 41.
[0052] The collection mechanism 60 includes a collection base plate 61 on the receiving workbench 3, a collection base support 62 on the collection base plate 61, and a plurality of collection positioning posts 63 on the collection base support 62. A collection chamber 64 is formed between the collection positioning posts 63, and the collection chamber 64 is correspondingly arranged with the unloading and picking device 56.
[0053] In the entire injection molding production line, the left loading mechanism 10 conveys and segments the material belts 4, the right loading mechanism 20 conveys the material segments 5 upwards one by one, the feeding mechanism 30 picks up the material belts 4 and material segments 5 and delivers them to the injection molding mechanism 40, and the unloading mechanism 50 transports the injection-molded parts 6 to the collection mechanism 60 for collection in subsequent processes. The entire production process requires no manual intervention, saving significant time spent on preparing raw materials, loading, unloading, and collecting products, thus improving production efficiency. Furthermore, it avoids product deformation caused by manual handling of parts, effectively ensuring the accuracy of the loading position and sequence, resulting in high-quality injection-molded products. It also avoids wear on the mold caused by the positioning workpiece during the loading process, giving the injection mold a longer service life and long-term positioning accuracy.
[0054] Specifically, the height of the limiting groove 144 gradually decreases along the conveying direction. The height of the front end of the limiting groove 144 is equal to or slightly higher than the thickness of the material strip 4, so that when the limiting component 143 moves upward, it will not damage the straightness of the material strip 4, thus ensuring the appearance and quality of the subsequent injection molded parts.
[0055] Specifically, one side of the conveying trough 134 is provided with a slide rail 134a parallel to the conveying trough 134.

The slider 137a is provided with a sliding fixed seat 137b. The sliding fixed seat 137b is provided with a fixed plate 137c. The fixed plate 137c is provided with a spring groove. The push plate 138 is rotatably connected to one end of the sliding fixed seat 137b. The upper end of the push plate 138 is provided with a spring 137d corresponding to the spring groove. The lower end of the push plate 138 is a push end 138a corresponding to the push groove. The front end of the push end 138a is a feeding surface 138b perpendicular to the feeding direction, and the rear end is an inclined surface 138c at an acute angle to the feeding surface. The conveying trough 134 is provided with a top material device 139 at the beginning of the feeding direction. The top material device 139 includes a top material mounting block 139a at the bottom of the conveying base 132. The top material mounting block 139a is provided with two lower top material spring grooves. A vertical top material block 139b is provided above the top material mounting block 139a. The conveying base 132 is provided with a through hole that cooperates with the top material block 139b. The bottom end of the top material block 139b is provided with an upper top material spring groove corresponding to the lower top material spring grooves. A compression spring 139c is provided between the upper top material spring groove and the lower top material spring groove. The top material block 139b is provided with a top material horizontal surface corresponding to the conveying trough 134.
[0056] When the guide rod of the conveying cylinder 136 extends, the pusher plate 138 moves forward, providing a forward frictional force to the conveyor belt 4, causing the conveyor belt 4 to move forward. Simultaneously, the conveyor belt 4 exerts a downward and backward force on the pusher plate 138, causing the pusher plate 138 to press the conveyor belt 4 forward. When the guide rod of the conveying cylinder 136 retracts, the conveyor belt 4 exerts an upward and forward force on the pusher plate 138, causing the pusher plate 138 to move away from the conveyor belt 4. This allows the conveyor belt 4 to continuously move forward as the guide rod of the conveying cylinder 136 repeatedly extends and retracts. The top-feeding device 139 ensures that the conveyor belt at the rear end of the conveying trough 134 is higher than the conveyor belt at the front end, and the conveyor belt 4 at the rear end of the pusher plate 138 is inclined. This correspondingly increases the force exerted by the conveyor belt 4 on the pusher plate 138, preventing situations where the pusher plate 138 fails to press the conveyor belt 4 firmly when the guide rod of the conveying cylinder 136 extends, or where the pusher plate 138 fails to completely release the conveyor belt 4 when the guide rod of the conveying cylinder 136 retracts, thus ensuring the continuity of the conveying process.
[0057] Specifically, the connecting rod device 142 includes a horizontal shaft fixing seat 142a located at the bottom of the conveyor table 131. The horizontal shaft fixing seat 142a has a vertical limiting through hole. A limiting fixing seat 142b passing through the conveyor table 131 is provided in the limiting through hole. A limiting component 143 is fixed on the limiting fixing seat 142b. A horizontal shaft 142c is provided at the lower end of the horizontal shaft fixing seat 142a. A connecting rod 142d is provided on the guide rod of the segmented cylinder 141. The middle of the connecting rod 142d is hinged to the horizontal shaft 142c, one end is hinged to the guide rod of the segmented cylinder 141, and the other end is hinged to the lower end of the limiting fixing seat 142b. Because the thickness of the strip 4 is very small, some are only 0.15 mm thick, when the strip 4 is segmented, the movement stroke of the limiting component 143 is very short. If the stroke is too long, the strip 4 will easily deform. The cylinder has high precision requirements. Through the lever principle, the movement stroke of the limiting component 143 can reach the predetermined requirements, thus ensuring the shape of the strip and the quality of the injection molded part.
[0058] Specifically, a segmented positioning device 147 is provided below the storage plate 145. The segmented positioning device 147 includes a vertical segmented positioning cylinder 147a located below the storage plate 145. A segmented positioning pin 147b is provided on the guide rod of the segmented positioning cylinder 147a. A plurality of positioning holes are evenly provided on the material strip 4. The segmented positioning pin 147b passes through the conveyor table 131 and the storage plate 145 and is correspondingly set with the positioning holes on the material strip 4. The segmented positioning device 147 segments the material strip 4 into segments of a set length, ensuring the consistency of the subsequently injection molded parts.
[0059] Specifically, the front and rear ends of the lower mold 41 are symmetrically arranged with respect to the center of the lower mold 41. This is a common arrangement of a multi-cavity mold structure for smaller injection molded parts. The storage tank 146 is arranged correspondingly to the lower mold 41. The unloading roll 12 and the segmenting device 14 are respectively provided in two sets. In this way, the two injection molded parts can be subjected to the corresponding injection process at the same time, which improves the production efficiency of injection molding.
[0060] Specifically, the material feeding and unloading device 56 includes a horizontal upper mounting plate 561 connected to the guide rod of the material feeding cylinder 55. The bottom end of the upper mounting plate 561 is provided with a sprue clamp 562. Both ends of the upper mounting plate 561 are provided with vertical connecting columns 564 through linear bearings 563. The bottom end of the connecting column 564 is provided with a lower mounting plate 565 parallel to the upper mounting plate 561. The lower mounting plate 565 is provided with a material feeding clamp 566, which can be a pneumatic gripper cylinder or a pneumatic suction cup. A sprue groove 567 is provided between the injection molding worktable 2 and the receiving worktable 3. When the material handling device 56 moves above the collection bin 64 under the drive of the second longitudinal slider 54, the guide rod of the material discharge cylinder 55 extends downward, and the upper mounting plate 561 and the lower mounting plate 565 move downward synchronously until the injection molded part 6 reaches the upper end of the collection positioning post 63. The sprue 7 is blocked by the positioning post 63, the lower mounting plate 565 remains stationary, and the upper mounting plate continues to move downward to the lowest position. The sprue clamp 562 clamps the sprue 7, and then the guide rod of the material discharge cylinder 55 retracts upward. Simultaneously, the unloading clamp 566 releases the injection molded part 6, and the upper mounting plate 561 drives the sprue 7 to move upward first, while the lower mounting plate 565 remains stationary. A height difference is created between the sprue 7 and the injection molded part 6, causing them to separate. Due to gravity, they fall onto the collecting base 62 and stack sequentially. During the next unloading process, as the unloading device 56 moves, when the sprue 7 reaches the position of the sprue chute 567, the sprue clamp 562 releases, thus collecting the sprue 7. A corresponding position sensor can be installed on the second longitudinal slider 54. This achieves automatic separation of the sprue and collection of the injection molded part without manual intervention, ensuring high production efficiency and good product quality.
[0061] Specifically, the lifting drive device 25 includes a lifting through motor 251 located below the material storage bin 24. A through screw 252 is mounted on the lifting through motor 251, and a lifting plate 253 is fixed to the top of the through screw 252. The lifting rod 26 is fixed to the lifting plate 253. The lifting through motor 251 can tolerate a large center position deviation. Guide rods are also provided on both sides of the through screw 252, making the right-side loading mechanism easy to install and providing good upward conveying stability and high positional accuracy.
[0062] A 180° rotating platform can be installed below the material base plate 21. Through two sets of rotatable material bins 24, more material segments 5 can be placed for injection molding, avoiding downtime to replace the material bins 24 and improving production efficiency.
[0063] Specifically, the bottom of the second fixed platform 51 is provided with a second horizontal slide table 57, and a second horizontal slider 58 is provided on the second horizontal slide table 57. The second connecting plate 52 is provided on the second horizontal slider 58. The collecting base plate 61 is evenly provided with a plurality of collecting bottom grooves 65. The collecting bottom support 62 is configured to cooperate with the collecting bottom grooves 65. One end of the collecting bottom groove 65 is provided with a material-blocking magnet 66. The first horizontal slide table 32 and the second horizontal slide table 57 are ball screw slide tables, which have the advantage of high positional accuracy. The first longitudinal slide table 35 and the second longitudinal slide table 53 are synchronous belt slide tables, which have the advantages of large stroke and fast movement speed. This structure facilitates the retrieval of collected injection molded parts 6 and saves the time of downtime to replace the collecting bottom support 62, thereby improving production efficiency.
[0064] In summary, the present invention includes a loading workbench 1, an injection molding workbench 2, and a receiving workbench 3 arranged sequentially. The loading workbench 1 is equipped with a corresponding left loading mechanism 10 and a right loading mechanism 20, with a feeding mechanism 30 located above the left loading mechanism 10. The injection molding workbench 2 is equipped with an injection molding mechanism 40, and the receiving workbench 3 is equipped with a corresponding unloading mechanism 50 and a collecting mechanism 60, with the unloading mechanism 50 located above the collecting mechanism 60. In the entire injection molding production line, the left loading mechanism 10 conveys and segments the material strip 4, the right loading mechanism 20 conveys the material segments 5 upwards one by one, the feeding mechanism 30 picks up the material strip 4 and material segments 5 and delivers them to the injection molding mechanism 40, and the unloading mechanism 50 transports the injection-molded parts 6 to the collecting mechanism 60 for collection, for use in subsequent processes. The entire production process requires no manual intervention, saving significant time spent on raw material preparation, loading, unloading, and product collection, thus improving production efficiency. Furthermore, it avoids product deformation caused by manual handling of parts, effectively ensuring the accuracy of loading position and sequence, resulting in high-quality injection molded products. It also prevents wear on the mold from the positioning workpiece during loading, extending the service life and long-term positioning accuracy of the injection mold.
