Description

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of blow molding devices, and in particular to an energy-saving rapid cooling demoulding device for a blow molding machine based on a heat conversion structure. Background Art
[0002] Plastic products are prepared based on the blow molding principle of the blow molding machine structure. The cooling process during the molding process is also one of the key factors affecting the quality of the finished product. Common cooling methods include mold cooling, external mold cooling, internal cooling, etc., mainly using low-temperature water as the cooling medium and utilizing the heat exchange principle, specifically designing a water system in the mold.
[0003] The out-of-mold cooling method is mainly used for blow molding of large products, and its cooling process is still based on the above-mentioned heat exchange principle for preliminary cooling and shaping before taking it out for natural cooling. It should be noted that the common cooling method is forced cooling of the mold cavity to meet the requirements of cooling and shaping, but in the next blow molding process, the mold cavity needs to be heated again. Due to the large "temperature difference" between the two blow molding processes, the power loss in the heating process is increased, and a large amount of low-temperature cooling water will also be consumed.
[0004] This application proposes a solution to this problem. Summary of the invention

Regarding the cooling process in blow molding, the conventional method is to design a corresponding water system in the mold, use low-temperature cooling water as the cooling medium and utilize the heat exchange principle. In this method, the heat in the mold cavity will be directly "wasted", and the power loss will also increase during the reheating process.
[0006] The purpose of the present invention can be achieved through the following technical solutions: an energy-saving rapid cooling demoulding device for a blow molding machine based on a heat conversion structure, comprising a mother plate, a cavity plate and a gas component, wherein the cavity plate is mounted on the mother plate, and an air cylinder is mounted between the cavity plate and the mother plate, the setting position of the air cylinder corresponds to the molding cavity inside the cavity plate, and an air guide rod is arranged inside the air cylinder, permanent magnet blocks and blocking blocks are respectively installed at both ends of the air guide rod, and a multi-stroke assembly is arranged on the air guide rod, the multi-stroke assembly comprises a movable cone block, an air paddle, a front air wheel cover, and a rear air wheel cover, and an electromagnetic block corresponding to the permanent magnet block is installed inside the air cylinder;
[0007] The movable cone block, air paddle, front wheel cover and rear wheel cover are arranged in sequence along the direction from the permanent magnet block to the leveling block. The internal position of the air cylinder corresponding to the permanent magnet block and the movable cone block is set as a cold air cavity, and the position of the air cylinder corresponding to the front wheel cover and the rear wheel cover is set as a return air cavity, and the positions of the air cylinder corresponding to the return air cavity and the cold air cavity are respectively installed with return air pipes and cold air pipes, the return air pipes and cold air pipes match the gas assembly, the gas assembly injects low-temperature gas into the cold air cavity through the cold air pipe, and the gas assembly recovers the hot gas inside the return air cavity through the return air pipe.
[0008] It is further configured as follows: the movable cone block, the air paddle, the front air wheel cover, the rear air wheel cover and the air guide rod are slidably connected, and a blocking block is installed on the left side of the inner portion of the movable cone block corresponding to the air cylinder.
[0009] It is further configured as follows: the air paddles are linearly and equidistantly arranged along the length direction of the air guide rod, and the outer edge of the air paddles is slidably connected to the inner wall of the air buffer chamber, a connecting spring is arranged at the middle position of the air paddles at adjacent positions, and the middle position of the air paddles at adjacent positions inside the air cylinder is arranged as an air buffer chamber.

[0013] The present invention has the following beneficial effects:
[0014] 1. The overall device is based on the blow molding principle. It is different from the conventional cooling method in that it uses low-temperature gas as the cooling medium.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0025] The technical solution of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, rather than all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the present invention.
[0026] Embodiment 1
[0027] For the cooling process in blow molding, the conventional method is to design a corresponding water system in the mold, use low-temperature cooling water as the cooling medium and utilize the heat exchange principle. In this way, the heat in the mold cavity will be directly "wasted", and the power loss will also increase during the reheating process. The following technical solutions are proposed:
[0028] Reference Figures 1 to 7 In this embodiment, an energy-saving rapid cooling demoulding device for a blow molding machine based on a heat conversion structure includes a motherboard 1, a cavity plate 2 and a gas component. The cavity plate 2 is mounted on the motherboard 1, and an air cylinder 3 is installed between the cavity plate 2 and the motherboard 1. The setting position of the air cylinder 3 corresponds to the molding cavity inside the cavity plate 2, and an air guide rod 13 is arranged inside the air cylinder 3. Permanent magnet blocks 14 and blocking blocks 7 are respectively installed at both ends of the air guide rod 13, and a multi-stroke component is arranged on the air guide rod 13. The multi-stroke component includes a movable cone block 12, an air paddle 11, a front air wheel cover 9, and a rear air wheel cover 8. An electromagnetic block 4 corresponding to the permanent magnet block 14 is installed inside the air cylinder 3;
[0029] The movable cone block 12, the air paddle 11, the front wheel cover 9, and the rear wheel cover 8 are arranged in sequence along the direction from the permanent magnet block 14 to the blocking block 7. The internal position of the air cylinder 3 corresponding to the permanent magnet block 14 and the movable cone block 12 is set as a cold air cavity 5, and the position of the air cylinder 3 corresponding to the front wheel cover 9 and the rear wheel cover 8 is set as a return air cavity 6, and the positions of the air cylinder 3 corresponding to the return air cavity 6 and the cold air cavity 5 are respectively installed with a return air pipe and a cold air pipe, the return air pipe and the cold air pipe match the gas component, the gas component injects low-temperature gas into the cold air cavity 5 through the cold air pipe, and the gas component recovers the hot gas inside the return air cavity 6 through the return air pipe, the movable cone block 12, the air paddle 11, the front wheel cover 9, the rear wheel cover 8 and the air guide rod 13 are slidably connected, and a blocking block 17 is installed on the left side position of the inner side of the air cylinder 3 corresponding to the movable cone block 12.
[0030] Working principle: The overall device is based on the mold structure in the blow molding machine. Figure 1 and Figure 2 For example, a molding cavity of a corresponding shape is arranged inside the cavity plate 2, and a plurality of air cylinders 3 are arranged according to the structural shape of the molding cavity, and the arrangement position of the air cylinder 3 corresponds to the molding cavity. It can be understood that the air cylinder 3 needs to be arranged one by one in accordance with the shape of the molding cavity, so that in this embodiment, the arrangement position and the number of the air cylinder 3 are not specifically limited, but it should be noted that the outer wall of the air cylinder 3 on one side close to the molding cavity and the blocking block 7 need to match the position of the inner wall of the molding cavity, and then when the electromagnetic block 4 is energized to generate magnetic force, a repulsive force is formed between the electromagnetic block 4 and the permanent magnet block 14, so that under the action of the repulsive force, the blocking block 7 completely blocks one end of the air cylinder 3, so that the inner wall of the molding cavity remains intact and does not affect the blow molding process;
[0031] When the electromagnetic block 4 generates suction in cooperation with the permanent magnet block 14, one end of the air cylinder 3 is "opened". During this process, the gas component blows the low-temperature gas into the cold air cavity 5, and blows it out from the air cylinder 3 along the direction of the movable cone block 12-air paddle 11-front air wheel cover 9-rear air wheel cover 8, and directly acts on the outer wall of the molded product, thereby cooling the blow-molded product. In this process, the low-temperature gas blowing pressure is also used to assist the demolding of the blow-molded product.
[0032] Embodiment 2
[0033] This embodiment uses the technical content in the first embodiment to explain and illustrate the low-temperature gas blowing process:
[0034] The air paddles 11 are linearly and equidistantly arranged along the length direction of the air guide rod 13, and the outer edge of the air paddles 11 is slidably connected to the inner wall of the air buffer chamber 16. A connecting spring 10 is arranged at the middle position of the air paddles 11 at adjacent positions. The middle position of the air paddles 11 at adjacent positions inside the air cylinder 3 is arranged as the air buffer chamber 16. A connecting air channel 15 is opened in the internal position of the air guide rod 13 corresponding to the air buffer chamber 16. The setting position of the connecting air channel 15 corresponds to the setting position of the air paddles 11, and the air buffer chambers 16 at adjacent positions are connected via the connecting air channel 15.
[0035] Solution Description: Refer to Figure 5 To explain, the low-temperature gas first enters the cold air cavity 5, and uses the gas pressure to push the movable cone block 12 to move to the right, so that the low-temperature gas enters the buffer chamber 16. In this process, the first air paddle 11 on the left directly bears the pressure of the low-temperature gas and moves to the right, and then the low-temperature gas enters the second buffer chamber 16 through the first connecting air duct 15 on the left. This process is continued, so that the low-temperature gas is blown out through the front wheel cover 9 and the rear wheel cover 8. Specifically, the movement of the air paddle 11 is combined with the elastic potential energy of the connecting spring 10 to reduce the pressure of the low-temperature gas during the blowing process, so as to avoid the low-temperature gas being blown to the outer wall of the product in a high-pressure state, which may cause quality problems such as dents on the outer wall of the blow-molded product.
[0036] Embodiment 3
[0037] This embodiment explains and illustrates the hot gas recovery process in Embodiment 1:
[0038] The front wheel cover 9 and the rear wheel cover 8 are provided with fan blades inside, and the fan blades are arranged in a circular array along the center point of the air guide rod 13. The front wheel cover 9 and the rear wheel cover 8 are respectively provided with a first air port 18 and a second air port 20 along the length direction of the air guide rod 13, and a return air port 19 is provided at the outer edge of the rear wheel cover 8. An airway port 21 is provided at a position of the air cylinder 3 corresponding to the return air cavity 6 and the rear wheel cover 8. The first air port 18, the second air port 20 and the return air port 19 are arranged in a circular array along the center point of the air guide rod 13, and the return air port 19 and the second air port 20 are staggered, and the setting position of the first air port 18 corresponds to the setting position of the second air port 20.
[0039] Solution Description: Refer again Figure 5 It is explained that: when the blocking block 7 moves to the left, it can be understood that: a gap is formed between the outer wall position of the blow-molded product and the blocking block 7, so that after the low-temperature gas enters the gap, according to the heat exchange principle, the low-temperature gas "accepts" the heat energy of the blow-molded product to form hot gas, thereby achieving the purpose of cooling. However, it should be noted that: the outer wall of the product is completely attached to the inner wall position of the molding cavity, so that the hot gas cannot be discharged from the molding cavity, which affects the injection process of the low-temperature gas;
[0040] In this embodiment, the front wheel cover 9 and the rear wheel cover 8 are mainly used. Figure 6 and Figure 7 The low temperature gas first enters the front wheel housing 9 through the first air port 18 in the horizontal direction. Figure 7 To explain: the front wheel cover 9 and the rear wheel cover 8 are both provided with blades, so that multiple independent areas are provided inside the two by the blades, and the two rotate by the low-temperature gas pressure. This part is the basic principle of this embodiment. It should also be explained that: if the number of independent areas is limited by limiting the layout angle of the blades in the front wheel cover 9 and the rear wheel cover 8, if the number of independent areas is n, then the number of the first air port 18 and the return air port 19 is n / 2, and the specific process includes the following contents:
[0041] S1: The low-temperature gas first enters the front wheel cover 9, and in conjunction with its rotation process, the low-temperature gas enters the rear wheel cover 8 through the second gas port 20 again, thereby acting on the gap between the blocking block 7 and the outer wall of the product to complete the cooling process;
[0042] S2: As shown in S1, because the number of second air ports 20 and return air ports 19 is staggered, the low-temperature gas will not actively overflow from the return air ports 19, so the number of second air ports 20 needs to be further limited. The number of second air ports 20 near the front wheel cover 9 is n / 2, but the number of second air ports 20 near the blocking block 7 is n, so that the low-temperature gas passes through the rear wheel cover 8 and the front wheel cover 9 from left to right. However, after the low-temperature gas receives heat energy to form hot gas, the hot gas re-enters the independent area in the rear wheel cover 8 through the second air port 20 at the right side of the rear wheel cover 8, and enters the return air chamber 6 through the return air port 19-airway port 21, so as to recover heat energy without affecting the cooling of the low-temperature gas.
[0043] S3: As shown in S2, the first air port 18 and the second air port 20 in the front wheel cover 9 and the rear wheel cover 8 are not in a "straight-through" state, but are in a "straight-through" state formed when the front wheel cover 9 and the rear wheel cover 8 rotate relative to each other. Similarly, the airway port 21 and the return air port 19 are also "straight-through" through the rotation process of the rear wheel cover 8. The purpose of this is to extend the cooling time of the product by the low-temperature gas;
[0044] In addition, the recovered hot gas is re-input into the gas component, specifically the thermal energy in the hot gas is utilized, because the compressed hot gas needs to be output during the blow molding process, so the recovered hot gas can be used as a compressed gas "source" in the blow molding process. When compressed gas needs to be output for blow molding, the recovered hot gas can be directly called and heated to a specified temperature, so that the recovered hot gas can be utilized again.
[0045] In summary: Based on the blow molding principle, this solution uses low-temperature gas as the cooling medium, which is manifested in that the low-temperature gas directly acts on the outer wall of the product, and the gas blowing pressure is used to assist in demolding. On the basis of this technology, a multi-stroke component is added to further limit the flow direction of the low-temperature gas. During the low-temperature gas blowing process, it also has the function of recovering hot gas. The purpose is that the overall process will not affect the blow molding process, and reduce the cooling temperature difference of the mold itself, thereby reducing the power loss in the subsequent reheating process of the mold, and simultaneously utilize the recovered hot gas, and use the recovered hot gas as the compressed gas "source" in the blow molding process, mainly utilizing the thermal energy in the hot gas.
