At the same time, the water flow filled in the cooling groove 32 will flow back to the water storage tank 2 along the return pipe 322, realizing water circulation cooling and improving the cooling effect.
[0048] After the cooling is completed, the reciprocating screw 52 drives the heating chamber 51 to reset upward, thereby releasing the seal on the thermoplastic mold 3, and the sealing plate 57 and the cutting blade 574 will be reset under the rebound action of the first spring 561 and the second spring 573 respectively, and when the thermoplastic mold 3 is opened, the solenoid valve in the back-blowing groove 64 is opened. At this time, since the air pressure at the bottom of the inner cavity of the blister mold groove 31 is small and the external air pressure is large, the external air flow will enter the bottom of the inner cavity of the blister mold groove 31 along the air delivery groove 63 and the back-blowing groove 64, thereby pushing the thermoplastic molded product to move upward, realizing demoulding and pushing, and effectively improving the processing efficiency; and when the heating chamber 51 gradually releases the squeezing of the first push rod 73, the first conduit 742 and the second conduit 752 will generate reverse suction, thereby effectively accelerating the gas flow rate on the surface of the thermoplastic molded product, so that the residual temperature on the surface is dissipated more quickly, so as to carry out subsequent processing operations, further improving the processing efficiency.

Any technician familiar with the technical field can make equivalent replacements or changes according to the technical scheme and inventive concept of the present invention within the technical scope disclosed by the present invention, which should be covered by the protection scope of the present invention.
