Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of shoulder injection machines, and more specifically to a fully automatic high-speed shoulder injection machine using a flexible tube. Background Technology
[0002] For any type of equipment, production speed and product quality are both crucial. In fully automatic hose injection molding machines, the design of the mold base has a vital impact on both hose quality and output.
[0003] Currently, most existing equipment has the forming mold bowl at the bottom and the mandrel at the top, with the mold bowl rotating with the mandrel on the turntable. This structure has good pressure holding and cooling effects, but the forming effect is not good when the forming bowl is at the bottom; or the forming mold bowl is at the top and the mandrel at the bottom, with the mold bowl not rotating with the mandrel on the turntable. This structure has good forming effects, but the pressure holding and cooling effects are not good, and it cannot meet the needs of actual use.
[0004] As can be seen from the above, the existing tube injection molding machines have the disadvantages of low precision and poor cooling and molding effect, making it difficult to promote and apply them.

[0047] The specific implementation of the present invention will be described in detail below with reference to specific embodiments.
[0048] See Figures 1 to 20A fully automatic high-speed tube shoulder injection machine includes a shoulder injection mechanism 1 and an injection base mechanism 7.

[0049] Preferably, when the injection mechanism 7 is working, the first cylinder 502 retracts, and the extrusion mechanism 5 and the spraying mechanism 6 extend to the position corresponding to the mandrel. When the machine stops working, the cylinder extends, and the extrusion mechanism 5 and the spraying mechanism 6 retract as a whole.
[0050] Furthermore, the turntable mechanism 2 also includes a first motor 101, a mounting plate 102, a mounting base 104, a bearing 105, a first connecting shaft 106, and a small turntable 107. The first motor 101 is mounted on the mounting plate 102. The turntable 103 is fixedly connected to the outer ring output shaft of the first motor 101. The first connecting shaft 106 is fixedly connected to the inner ring output shaft of the first motor 101. The inner ring of the bearing 105 is connected to the first connecting shaft 106. The outer ring of the bearing 105 is mounted on the mounting base 104. The upper end face of the mounting base 104 is connected to the small turntable 107.
[0051] Preferably, the small turntable 107 is fixed to the upper end of the mold frame, and the lower end of the mold frame is fixed to the turntable 103. When the motor rotates, the turntable 103 rotates together with the mold frame and the small turntable 107.
[0052] Furthermore, the turntable mechanism 2 also includes a base plate 201, a rotary joint outer sleeve 202, a third deep groove ball bearing 203, a rotary joint shaft 204, a first connecting plate 205, a water distributor base plate 206, a water distributor 207, and a connecting rod 208. A plurality of stainless steel water pipes 108 are connected through the inner ring of the first connecting shaft 106. The upper end of each stainless steel water pipe 108 is connected to the water distributor 207, and the lower end of each stainless steel water pipe 108 is connected to the rotary joint shaft 204. The base plate 201 is connected to the rotary joint outer sleeve 202. The inner ring of the rotary joint outer sleeve 202 is fitted with the third deep groove ball bearing 203. The inner ring of the bearing 105 is connected to the rotary joint shaft 204. The rotary joint shaft 204 is fixedly connected to the water distributor base plate 206 via the first connecting plate 205. The water distributor base plate 206 is fixedly connected to the water distributor 207.
[0053] Preferably, when the first motor 101 rotates, the small turntable 107 rotates, the water distributor 207 rotates together with the small turntable 107, the rotary joint shaft 204 rotates, and the rotary joint sleeve 202 is fixed on the base plate.
[0054] Furthermore, a plurality of linear bearings 209 are installed on the base plate 206 of the water distributor. A connecting rod 208 is provided inside the linear bearing 209. The lower end of the connecting rod 208 is fixedly installed on the small turntable 107. The upper end of the connecting rod 208 is connected to the nonagonal frame 109. An air distribution plate 111 is installed on the upper end of the nonagonal frame 109. The air distribution plate 111 is connected to a solenoid valve 110. The upper end of the air distribution plate 111 is connected to the lower end of the rotary joint 113 through a second connecting shaft 112. An air pipe 114 is connected to the upper end of the rotary joint 113.
[0055] Preferably, the solenoid valve 110 is connected to the cylinder and the gas-liquid booster cylinder on the mold frame via an air pipe. When the first motor 101 rotates, the turntable 103, the water distributor 207, the nonagonal frame 109, the air distribution plate 111, and the mold frame rotate together.
[0056] Furthermore, the tube delivery and lifting mechanism 409 includes a tube delivery clamp 401, a flexible hose 402, a finger cylinder 403, a second connecting plate 404, a third connecting plate 405, and a slide module 406. The tube delivery clamp 401 is fixedly connected to the piston rod of the finger cylinder 403. The finger cylinder 403 is mounted on the slide module 406 through the second connecting plate 404 and the third connecting plate 405. The flexible hose 402 is provided below the tube delivery clamp 401.
[0057] Preferably, the sliding table module 406 moves to drive the tube clamp 401 to move up and down. When the mandrel on the mold frame extends, the air blowing from the bottom of the mandrel by the ventilation system pushes the hose 402 upward. The sliding table module 406 drives the tube clamp 401 to move downward to grab the hose 402. The sliding table module 406 moves upward to lift the hose 402 upward. Then, the tube clamp 401 is equipped with a suction nozzle, which sucks the hose 402 and places it on the tube conveyor belt 407. The tube conveyor belt 407 transports the hose to the storage box or the next process.
[0058] It should be noted that the tube feeding mechanism 3 includes a base, on the surface of which a tube feeding robot is mounted. Below the tube feeding robot is a positioning conveyor belt, on which a positioning mechanism is mounted. The positioning mechanism is located below the tube feeding robot. A tube feeding conveyor belt is located on one side of the positioning conveyor belt. Both the positioning conveyor belt and the tube feeding conveyor belt are mounted on the base. A sensing plate is mounted on the outer wall of the connecting shaft 2, and a sensor that works in conjunction with the sensing plate is mounted at the bottom of the middle horizontal plate. This ensures that each rotation is 90°, and the positioning is accurate and reliable.
[0059] The machine base is also equipped with a tube infeed roller mechanism, which includes two vertical plates and three horizontal plates. The two vertical plates and three horizontal plates are assembled to form a frame. The two upper horizontal plates are each equipped with a diamond-shaped bearing with a seat. A central shaft is rotatably connected to the two diamond-shaped bearings. The bottom end of the central shaft is fixed to the upper surface of the roller assembly, and the top end of the central shaft is connected to the ventilation pipe through a rotary joint. The other end of the roller assembly is fixed to one end of a connecting shaft through a shrink sleeve. The other end of the connecting shaft is fixed to the output end of the reducer through a coupling. The input end of the reducer is fixed to the output shaft of the motor. The reducer and the motor are both installed at the bottom of the lowest horizontal plate. The motor can drive and rotate the roller assembly, thereby enabling the tube infeeding robot to place the tube and the tube inserter to press the tube simultaneously, saving time and increasing work efficiency.
[0060] The roller assembly includes an upper roller and a lower roller, which are connected by a connecting shaft. Multiple upper tube grooves are installed on the side wall of the upper roller, and multiple lower tube grooves are installed on the side wall of the lower roller. The upper and lower tube grooves are in the same position. The tube grooves can be changed according to different tube diameters to adapt to the production of hoses of different diameters.
[0061] An adjusting bolt is threaded onto the outer wall of the upper roller; the distance between the two can be adjusted using the adjusting bolt to accommodate the production of hoses of different lengths.
[0062] In this system, after the hose exits the tube-making machine or extruder, it directly enters the inlet conveyor belt, and then proceeds to the alignment conveyor belt. The alignment conveyor belt is equipped with an alignment mechanism. After the hose is aligned, the inlet robot places the hose on the inlet roller mechanism. Due to the suction structure inside the roller assembly, the hose can be adsorbed onto the roller assembly. The motor is started and drives the second connecting shaft to rotate through the reducer. The second connecting shaft drives the roller assembly to rotate through the expansion sleeve. The roller assembly has four placement surfaces, rotating 90° each time, so that the inlet robot can place the hose on different surfaces of the roller assembly. When the roller assembly rotates 180° to the inlet insertion station on the back, the module slide works and drives the inserter to move through the connecting plate, thereby pressing down the hose and inserting it into the mandrel.
[0063] It should be noted that the inlet alignment mechanism 301 includes two horizontal plates and two vertical plates. The two horizontal plates and two vertical plates are assembled to form a frame. The frame is installed on the top of the inlet roller mechanism. The inlet roller mechanism 302 has a roller assembly inside, and a roller tube groove is installed on the roller assembly for intermittently feeding the hose.
[0064] A color mark sensor is installed inside the tube inlet roller mechanism 302. The color mark sensor is located on one side below the roller assembly. The color mark sensor detects the cursor on the tube and controls the stepper motor to achieve accurate and reliable positioning of the tube.
[0065] A turntable is provided on one side of the tube feeding roller mechanism 302. Multiple sets of mold frames are installed on the turntable, and a core rod is installed at the bottom of the mold frame; this facilitates continuous tube feeding.
[0066] The mandrel is positioned directly below the intubator; ensure the tubing is smoothly inserted into the mandrel using the intubator.
[0067] A modular slide is installed on one side of the frame. The modular slide is fixed to the bearing seat via a fixing plate. A third deep groove ball bearing is rotatably connected to the bearing seat via a first deep groove ball bearing. The bottom end of the third deep groove ball bearing is fixed to the top end of the inserter. The inserter includes an inserter cover. The top end of the inserter cover is threaded to the bottom end of the third deep groove ball bearing. The bottom end of the inserter cover is fixed to the inserter core via a hollow hexagonal head bolt. A connecting rod is installed inside the inserter cover. The bottom end of the connecting rod is connected to the inserter core via an expander. The top end of the connecting rod passes through the inserter cover and the third deep groove ball bearing and is fixed to the telescopic shaft of the cylinder. A linear spring is installed between the inserter cover and the inserter core. By moving the inserter downward, the hose adsorbed on the roller tube groove is pressed down, so that the lower end of the hose is inserted into the mandrel, realizing tube insertion. The linear spring can play a buffering role.
[0068] The top of the third deep groove ball bearing is fixedly connected to a synchronous pulley. The synchronous pulley is connected to the synchronous pulley via a synchronous belt. The synchronous pulley is fixed to the top of the third deep groove ball bearing. The bottom of the third deep groove ball bearing is fixedly connected to the inner ring of the ball spline. The outer side of the ball spline is rotatably connected to the fixed block via the deep groove ball bearing. The fixed block is fixedly connected to the fixed plate via a connecting plate. A key shaft is provided inside the ball spline. The bottom of the key shaft is rotatably connected to a seated bearing. The seated bearing is fixed to the bottom of the frame. The top of the key shaft is fixedly connected to the output shaft of the stepper motor via a coupling. The stepper motor is installed on the top of the frame.
[0069] In this solution, when the turntable rotates, it moves the mold frame to the tube inlet station. There are multiple mold frames on the turntable; only one is shown in the diagram. At this time, the sliding module moves the bearing seat downwards via the fixed plate. The bearing seat, through deep groove ball bearing one and the third deep groove ball bearing one, moves the tube inserter downwards, pressing down the flexible tube adsorbed on the roller groove, so that the lower end of the flexible tube is inserted into the mandrel, while the inner core of the tube inserter is inserted into the upper end of the flexible tube. At this time, the stepper motor drives the ball spline to rotate via the key shaft, thereby driving the second synchronous pulley to rotate. The second synchronous pulley... The synchronous belt drives the first synchronous pulley to rotate, and the first synchronous pulley drives the inserter to rotate through the third deep groove ball bearing, thereby driving the hose to rotate. Since a color mark sensor is installed on one side of the hose, when the color mark sensor senses the cursor on the hose, the stepper motor stops rotating, and the alignment is completed. At this time, the module slide moves the hose down again until the upper end of the hose is 1-2mm higher than the rod head on the mandrel. The module slide is then lifted up and reset, and the tube insertion is completed. The turntable drives the mold frame to continue rotating and drives the next set of mold frames to repeat the above steps.
[0070] It should be noted that the mold frame mentioned in the text includes a pneumatic-hydraulic booster cylinder fixed to the top of the top plate. The telescopic end of the pneumatic-hydraulic booster cylinder passes through the top plate and is fixedly connected to a connecting block. The bottom end of the connecting block is fixedly connected to an upper template. The upper template is movably fitted outside four mold guide rods. The four mold guide rods are all fixed to the bottom plate and the top plate. A lower template is attached to the bottom of the upper template. The lower template is movably fitted outside the four mold guide rods. The top of the lower template is fixedly connected to two symmetrically arranged key strips. The top of the two key strips is slidably fitted with two symmetrically arranged toothed plates. The bottom end of the upper template is fixedly connected to two symmetrically arranged inclined guide pillars. The two toothed plates and the lower template are all provided with inclined holes that mate with the inclined guide pillars. The toothed plates and the lower template can slide up and down with the inclined guide pillars through the inclined holes. A water pipe connector for passing ice water is fixed to the water inlet on one side wall of the upper and lower templates. Two symmetrically arranged ejector sleeves are installed on the upper template. The system features cooling channels for circulating ice water. Two symmetrically arranged mold bowls are mounted on the lower mold plate, each with its own cooling channel. Two symmetrically arranged cylinders are located below the lower mold plate, both fixed to the bottom of a support block. The support block is fixed to the outside of two mold guide rods. The telescopic ends of the cylinders penetrate the support block and fit against the bottom of the lower mold plate. As the toothed plates slide up and down on the inclined guide post, the distance between the two toothed plates increases or decreases accordingly. The cooling channels effectively cool the formed hose. After spraying, the mold frame remains in a combined cooling and pressure-holding state, resulting in better hose forming and cooling. Furthermore, the use of a pneumatic-hydraulic booster cylinder provides greater output, better forming effect, and stable output, improving production efficiency. The reduced weight also decreases the rotational inertia of the turntable, increasing its rotational speed and further improving production efficiency.
[0071] Two symmetrically arranged guide rail seats at the top of the base plate are each slidably connected to a guide rail slider with an inverted vertical cross-section. The top of each guide rail slider is detachably connected to a fixing plate by four bolts. A mandrel is fixed to the top of the fixing plate, and a rod head is installed on the top of each mandrel. A flexible tube is movably sleeved on the outside of the mandrel. The rod head and mandrel can be replaced according to the different diameters of the flexible tube. The two fixing plates are connected to the telescopic rod of the cylinder through connecting blocks. The cylinder is fixed to the base plate. A diaphragm cylinder is also provided between the two rod heads. The diaphragm cylinder is connected to the two fixing plates through a vertical plate. The mold frame is equipped with forward and backward cylinders to drive the mandrel to move back and forth, which facilitates material spraying and mold closing. Cylinders are installed on both sides of the mold frame to help the mold plate open quickly, speeding up the production speed and improving the production efficiency.
[0072] In this design, the mold frame is a crucial structure for the shoulder forming of the flexible tube injection molding machine. The machine has nine sets of these mold frames, mounted on a circular turntable. The mold frame rotates with the turntable. When the material is sprayed onto the mandrel, the machine enters the mold closing process. The diaphragm cylinder clamps the mandrel, ensuring the flexible tube holds tightly to the mandrel. This prevents the flexible tube from being pressed down during mold closing and from being pulled out during mold opening. The cylinder retracts, moving the mandrel back to its original position. At this time, the pneumatic-hydraulic booster cylinder opens, causing the upper and lower mold plates to move downwards until the mold cup and mandrel are pressed together. This creates a closed cavity formed by the ejector sleeve, jaw plate, mold cup, and mandrel. The shape of this cavity is the final shape of the flexible tube shoulder. After the shoulder injection is completed, the mold frame does not open until it is ready to exit the tube station. The mold frame opens when the No. 2 and No. 3 plates move upward. After the shoulder injection is completed, the mold frame remains closed. The turntable rotates, and the hose goes through six pressure holding and cooling processes before reaching the tube exit station. Before exiting the tube, the mold needs to be opened. The gas-liquid booster cylinder retracts, driving the upper mold plate to move upward. The cylinder opens, pushing the lower mold plate upward. At this time, the cylinder opens, pushing out the mandrel. The tube exit clamp at the tube exit station will remove the hose, and then the next cycle begins: tube entry, spraying, mold closing, pressure holding and cooling, and tube exit.
[0073] like Figure 1 , Figures 13-20 As shown, in a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the extrusion mechanism 5 includes a first vertical plate 506, a second cylinder 507, a sixth connecting plate 508, a third connecting shaft 509, a second vertical plate 510, a bearing seat 511, a fourth connecting shaft 512, a first synchronous pulley 513, a synchronous belt 514, a second synchronous pulley 515, a first reducer 516, a screw 517, a barrel 518, and a third vertical plate 519. The first vertical plate 506 is fixedly mounted on the injection base frame 505. The second cylinder 507 is mounted on the first vertical plate 506. The second cylinder 507 is connected to the third vertical plate 519 via the sixth connecting plate 508. The connecting shaft 509 is connected to the second vertical plate 510. A bearing seat 511 is installed on the second vertical plate 510. The inner ring of the bearing seat 511 is connected to the fourth connecting shaft 512. One side of the fourth connecting shaft 512 is connected to the first synchronous pulley 513. The first synchronous pulley 513 is connected to the first reducer 516 and the second motor 525 respectively through the synchronous belt 514 and the second synchronous pulley 515. The other side of the fourth connecting shaft 512 is connected to the screw 517. The outer circle of the screw 517 is connected to the material cylinder 518. The material cylinder 518 is fixedly installed on the third vertical plate 519.
[0074] Furthermore, a first heating coil 520 is installed on the outer ring of the material cylinder 518, and the hopper 521 is fixedly installed on the third vertical plate 519 through the seventh connecting plate 522. The third vertical plate 519 and the material cylinder 518 are respectively provided with feed inlets at the corresponding connection points with the hopper 521. The second vertical plate 510 is installed on the second guide rail slider 523, and the mounting surface on the other side of the second guide rail slider 523 and the third vertical plate 519 are both installed on the panel 524.
[0075] Preferably, when spraying is required, plastic granules enter the barrel 518 from the hopper 521. The first heating coil 520 outside the barrel 518 melts the plastic granules. At the same time, the second motor 525 rotates, which drives the screw 517 to rotate through the synchronous belt 514. In addition, during operation, the second cylinder 507 reciprocates, driving the screw 517 to reciprocate. Therefore, the screw 517 rotates and moves back and forth at the same time, thus extruding the melted plastic granules in the barrel 518 forward to the spraying mechanism 6.
[0076] Furthermore, the spraying mechanism 6 includes a spraying back plate 601, a second reducer 602, a third motor 603, an eccentric wheel 604, a first deep groove ball bearing 605, a cam 606, a second deep groove ball bearing 607, a first positioning pin 608, and a feed rod adjusting block 609. The spraying back plate 601 is installed on the fourth vertical plates 526 on both sides of the extrusion mechanism 5 through threaded holes on both sides. The second reducer 602 and the third motor 603 are installed on the back of the spraying back plate 601. The output shaft of the second reducer 602 is fixedly connected to the eccentric wheel 604. The outer ring of the eccentric wheel 604 is connected to the first deep groove ball bearing 605. The outer ring of the first deep groove ball bearing 605 is connected to the cam 606. The lower end of the cam 606 is connected to the feed rod adjusting block 609 through the second deep groove ball bearing 607 and the first positioning pin 608.
[0077] Furthermore, the spraying mechanism 6 also includes a fifth connecting shaft 610, a second positioning pin 611, a material rod nut 612, and a material rod 613. A plurality of material rod adjusting blocks 609 are installed on the material rod adjusting block 609. The material rod adjusting block 609 is connected to the material rod 613 through the second positioning pin 611 and the material rod nut 612. The outer diameter of the material rod nut 612 is smaller than the inner diameter of the fifth connecting shaft 610, and the material rod 613 is threadedly connected to the material rod nut 612.
[0078] Preferably, the outer diameter of the rod nut 612 is smaller than the inner diameter of the fifth connecting shaft 610, so that the position of the rod 613 can be adjusted in the X and Y directions. Since the rod 613 and the rod nut 612 are connected by a thread, the position of the rod 613 in the Z direction can also be adjusted.
[0079] Furthermore, a die head 614 is provided below the material rod 613. The inlet on the die head 614 is connected to the outlet on the material cylinder 518. Several positioning shafts 615 are installed on the die head 614. The inner circle of the positioning shaft 615 is connected to the material rod 613. A nozzle 616 and an air cover 617 are installed below the die head 614. The air cover 617 is connected to an air blowing system. Several second heating coils 618 are installed inside the die head 614.
[0080] Correspondingly, the air blowing system includes, but is not limited to, an air blowing pump, which is existing technology and will not be discussed further in this article.
[0081] Preferably, the die head 614 has two flow channels leading from the feed port to two holes in the loading rod. The die head 614 is equipped with four second heating coils 618 to achieve a continuous heating effect on the material. When the third motor 603 rotates, the third motor 603, in conjunction with the eccentric wheel 604 and the cam 606, drives the material rod 613 to move up and down, thereby continuously squeezing the material that has entered the die head from the material cylinder 518 downwards. In conjunction with the air blowing system on the air cover, the material is blown off and sprayed onto the mandrel on the die frame.
[0082] It should be noted that all components in this application are general standard parts or parts known to those skilled in the art, which effectively solves the problems of low precision and poor cooling and forming effect in existing hose injection molding machines.
