Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of injection molding recycling structures, in particular to a plastic volatile matter recovery system and an injection molding volatile matter recovery method. Background Art

[0002] Injection molding is a widely used process for manufacturing plastic products. Its basic principle is to heat thermoplastics to a molten state, inject the molten plastic into the mold cavity through the screw of the injection molding machine, and then form the plastic product into the desired shape after cooling and solidification. The injection molding process typically produces a lot of waste gas. The reasons for this are: 1. In the high-temperature molten state, some plastic raw materials undergo thermal decomposition, producing volatile organic compounds (VOCs) and other harmful gases; 2. When the mold is opened, unburned plastic volatiles and other volatile compounds are released. To reduce the harm to the environment and the health of operators, these plastic volatiles need to be recovered and processed.

[0003] In this regard, the solution for recycling the above-mentioned plastic volatiles mainly adopts the solution of a full-workshop ventilation system, that is, installing large-scale ventilation equipment in the workshop, and exhausting the waste gas containing plastic volatiles out of the workshop through forced ventilation. However, ventilation of the entire workshop requires a large amount of energy, which easily leads to waste of resources. In addition, it is difficult for the ventilation equipment to evenly cover the ventilation effect in the workshop, and there is a risk of local accumulation of plastic volatiles in corners.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0048] In order to make the purpose, features, and advantages of the present invention more obvious and easy to understand, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the embodiments described below are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments.

They are not intended to indicate or imply that the devices or elements referred to must have a specific orientation, be constructed, or operate in a specific orientation. Therefore, they should not be construed as limitations on the present invention. It should be noted that when a component is considered to be "connected" to another component, it may be directly connected to the other component or there may be a centrally located component.

[0050] The technical solution of the present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and through specific implementation methods.

[0051] The plastic volatiles recovery system provided in this embodiment is suitable for injection molding production scenarios and can recycle and reuse plastic volatiles generated during the injection molding process. Its core advantage is that it can accurately recover waste gas generated at different stages to improve energy utilization and recovery effect.

[0052] like Figures 1 to 3 As shown, the plastic volatile recovery system in this embodiment includes a swinging device 100, and a gas collecting hood 210 is installed at the swinging end of the swinging device 100. A hood opening 211 is formed on the gas collecting hood 210 and is connected to a heat utilization pipe 220; a fan, a filter device, a volatile recovery device and other structures can be set on the gas transmission path from the gas collecting hood 210 to the heat utilization pipe 220 to process the waste gas collected by the gas collecting hood 210. It can also be set to first transmit the waste gas to the heat utilization pipe 220 through the fan, and then process the collected waste gas through the gas treatment structures such as the filter device and the volatile recovery device. In this embodiment, it is sufficient to realize the transmission of the waste gas from the gas collecting hood 210 to the heat utilization pipe 220. Other structures such as the filter device and the volatile recovery device are not described in detail in this embodiment.

[0053] Below the swing device 100, a screw extrusion device 310, an injection device 320 and an injection molding device 330 are arranged in sequence along the horizontal direction; the screw extrusion device 310 can melt and extrude plastic particles through a rotating screw, and the injection device 320 can inject the molten plastic into the mold of the injection molding device 330 through a nozzle. The injection molding device 330 includes a mold for molding a plastic workpiece; it should be pointed out that the above-mentioned nozzle and mold are both equipped with air holes, and the nozzle air holes are used to discharge the gas generated when the plastic raw material is melted in the screw extrusion device 310 and the nozzle, and the mold air holes are used to discharge the air and exhaust gas in the mold cavity when the molten plastic raw material fills the mold cavity. Among them, the swing device 100 is used to drive the gas collecting hood 210 to move between the first position 001, the second position 002 and the third position; as Figure 3 As shown, the air collecting cover 210 at the first position 001 is arranged toward the nozzle air hole of the injection device 320, as shown in FIG. Figure 4 As shown, the air collecting hood 210 at the second position 002 is arranged toward the mold air holes of the injection molding device 330 ; the air collecting hood 210 at the third position is arranged toward the parting area of the injection molding device 330 .

[0054] Specifically, during the injection molding process, the plastic raw material is put into the screw extruder 310, the plastic raw material is melted and sheared, and is injected into the mold cavity of the injection molding device 330 through the nozzle of the injection device 320. In this process, the exhaust gas generated when the plastic is melted is collected by the gas collecting hood 210 located at the first position 001; after the plastic raw material enters the injection molding device 330, it is cooled in the injection molding device 330, and the exhaust gas is discharged through the mold pores of the injection molding device 330, so that the exhaust gas generated during the cooling process is collected by the gas collecting hood 210 located at the second position 002. The waste gas is collected; after the plastic workpiece is formed, the injection molding device 330 opens the mold to facilitate the removal of the plastic workpiece. During this process, the waste gas released by the injection molding device 330 during the mold opening process is collected by the gas collecting hood 210 located at the third position; then, the waste gas is recovered through the heat utilization pipe 220, and the inlet of the screw extruder 310 is preheated, which can improve the melting efficiency, reduce energy consumption, and realize the precise recovery of waste gas, further improving the energy utilization rate. Therefore, the plastic volatile matter recovery system has the advantages of high energy utilization rate and better recovery effect.

[0055] Furthermore, the plastic volatile recovery system in this embodiment also includes a telescopic device 400, and the swing device 100 is installed on the telescopic end of the telescopic device 400; the injection device 320 is connected to the first switch valve device 500, and the injection molding device 330 is connected to the second switch valve device 600; when the gas collecting hood 210 is located in the first position 001, the first switch valve device 500 connects the gas collecting hood 210 and the injection device 320; when the gas collecting hood 210 is located in the second position 002, the second switch valve device 600 connects the gas collecting hood 210 and the injection molding device 330; the telescopic device 400 is used to drive the gas collecting hood 210 to move in a direction close to or away from the first switch valve device 500, and is also used to drive the gas collecting hood 210 to move in a direction close to or away from the second switch valve device 600.

[0056] It is understood that by adding the telescopic device 400, not only can the air collecting hood 210 be swung, but it can also be telescopically moved up and down, and the hood opening 211 can be respectively covered outside the first switch valve device 500 and the second switch valve device 600 to further improve the recycling efficiency. For example, when the plastic raw material is put into the screw extruder 310, the plastic raw material is sheared by the screw and injected into the mold cavity through the nozzle of the injection device 320. At this time, the air collecting hood 210 at the first position 001 cooperates with the nozzle air hole to discharge the waste gas; after the mold cavity is about to be filled with the plastic raw material, the plastic raw material in the mold cavity is about to be cooled, and the air collecting hood 210 at the second position 002 is used to cooperate with the mold air hole to discharge the waste gas, thereby achieving precise discharge of the waste gas.

[0057] Specifically, if Figures 3 to 8 As shown, the first switch valve device 500 and the second switch valve device 600 both include an air duct 510 disposed toward the swing device 100, and an opening and closing assembly 520 with an open state and a closed state is disposed in the air duct 510; when the gas collecting cover 210 is directed toward the air duct 510, as shown in FIG. Figure 8 As shown, the opening and closing assembly 520 in the corresponding air duct 510 is in the open state; when the air collecting cover 210 is away from the air duct 510, as shown in FIG. Figure 6 As shown, the opening and closing component 520 in the corresponding air duct 510 is in a closed state.

[0058] Furthermore, if Figures 5 to 8As shown, the opening and closing assembly 520 includes a plurality of opening and closing valve discs 521, which are circumferentially distributed in the air duct 510 and spliced to form a closing member for sealing the air duct 510; the end of the opening and closing valve disc 521 extends to the outside of the air duct 510 and is rotatably connected to the outer wall of the air duct 510 through the valve shaft 522, and the valve shaft 522 is also rotatably connected to a swing member 523, one end of the swing member 523 is fixedly connected to the end of the opening and closing valve disc 521, and the other end of the swing member 523 is installed with a first magnetic attraction portion 524; a second magnetic attraction portion is provided on the inner wall of the cover opening 211 of the air collecting hood 210 at a position corresponding to the first magnetic attraction portion 524; when the air collecting hood 210 is covered outside the air duct 510, the first magnetic attraction portion 524 is magnetically attracted by the second magnetic attraction portion, causing the corresponding opening and closing valve disc 521 to move in a direction close to the inner wall of the air duct 510.

[0059] It is understood that both the first on-off valve device 500 and the second on-off valve device 600 include an air duct 510 and an opening and closing assembly 520, which together implement intelligent switching of the gas collection channel. Specifically, the opening and closing assembly 520 is composed of a plurality of circumferentially distributed opening and closing valve discs 521, which can be spliced together to form a complete closure member for sealing the air duct 510. In conjunction with the arrangement of the valve shaft 522, the swinging member 523, and the first magnetic portion 524, when the gas collection cover 210 is moved to the first position 001 to cover the air duct 510 of the first on-off valve device 500, the second magnetic portion on the gas collection cover 210 magnetically attracts each first magnetic portion 524 and moves, causing the opening and closing valve disc 521 to move toward the inner wall of the air duct 510, thereby placing the first on-off valve device 500 in the open state. When the gas collection cover 210 moves from the first position 001 to the second position 002, the same principle is used to place the second on-off valve device 600 in the open state. At this time, because the second magnetic portion has moved away from the first magnetic portion 524 of the first on-off valve device 500 along its original path, the opening and closing valve disc 521 is reset under the action of the magnetic field, placing the first on-off valve device 500 in the closed state. This arrangement ensures that the system only collects exhaust gas from specific locations when necessary, avoiding unnecessary energy loss and achieving precise gas collection without the need for an additional control system.

[0060] As a specific embodiment, when the opening and closing component 520 in the air duct 510 is in a closed state, the plane where the multiple opening and closing valve plates 521 are located is perpendicular to the air outlet direction of the air duct 510, and the swinging member 523 is tilted upward in a direction away from the ground; when the opening and closing component 520 in the air duct 510 is in an open state, the plane where the multiple opening and closing valve plates 521 are located is tilted to the air outlet direction of the air duct 510, and the swinging member 523 is tilted downward in a direction close to the ground.

[0061] Taking the first switch valve device 500 as an example, when it is in the closed state, it is not affected by the magnetic field. The gravity moment of each opening and closing valve piece 521 on the inner side (inside the air duct 510) is greater than the gravity moment of the opening and closing valve piece 521 on the outer side. In conjunction with the limit block 513 protruding from the inner wall of the air duct 510, the plane where the multiple opening and closing valve pieces 521 are located is perpendicular to the outlet direction of the air duct 510. When in the open and closed state, since the gas collecting cover 210 covers the air duct 510, In addition, the applied magnetic field makes the sum of the moments on the outside of the opening and closing valve disc 521 (the sum of the moments of gravity and the magnetic field) greater than the gravitational moment on the inside, thereby driving the opening and closing valve disc 521 to flip, so that the plane where the opening and closing valve disc 521 is located is inclined with respect to the outlet direction of the air guide pipe 510. At this time, the inclination direction of the opening and closing valve disc 521 is also set at an acute angle with the outlet direction of the air guide pipe 510, which means that the exhausted gas can be discharged along the opening and closing valve disc 521, thereby playing a role in diversion.

[0062] As another optional embodiment, a torsion spring (not shown) can be installed on the valve shaft 522. The elastic force provided by the torsion spring causes the opening and closing valve disc 521 to abut against the limit block 513 protruding from the inner wall of the air duct 510, so that the plane where the multiple opening and closing valve discs 521 are located is perpendicular to the air outlet direction of the air duct 510; when in the open and closed state, since the gas collecting cover 210 covers the outside of the air duct 510 and applies a magnetic field, the sum of the torques of the opening and closing valve discs 521 on the outside (the sum of the torques of gravity and the magnetic field) is greater than the torque provided by the torsion spring, thereby driving the opening and closing valve discs 521 to flip, so that the plane where the opening and closing valve discs 521 are located is inclined to the air outlet direction of the air duct 510.

[0063] Furthermore, a first avoidance groove 511 is provided in the air guide tube 510 at a position corresponding to the opening and closing valve plate 521, and the first avoidance groove 511 is connected to the second avoidance groove 512, and the width of the second avoidance groove 512 is greater than the width of the first avoidance groove 511; the opening and closing valve plate 521 includes a connected triangular portion 5211 and a connecting portion 5212, and the triangular portion 5211 is connected to the valve shaft 522 through the connecting portion 5212; wherein, the width of the connecting portion 5212 matches the width of the first avoidance groove 511 and passes through the first avoidance groove 511, and the bottom edge width of the triangular portion 5211 matches the width of the second avoidance groove 512, so that the triangular portion 5211 can be at least partially accommodated in the second avoidance groove 512, and the length from the top corner to the bottom edge of the triangular portion 5211 is greater than the length of the second avoidance groove 512.

[0064] For example, the air duct 510 is provided with a first avoidance groove 511 and a second avoidance groove 512, which have different widths, forming a stepped groove body, and correspondingly, the opening and closing valve plate 521 is provided with a connected triangular portion 5211 and a connecting portion 5212; when the air collecting cover 210 is provided outside the air duct 510, at this time, the second magnetic portion on the air collecting cover 210 will attract the first magnetic portion 524 on the opening and closing valve plate 521, and the connecting portion 5212 will pass through the larger The narrow first avoidance groove 511 plays an avoidance role, while the triangular portion 5211 will partially enter the wider second avoidance groove 512 and be abutted by the second avoidance groove 512, thereby preventing the opening and closing valve plate 521 from detaching from the air duct 510, thereby ensuring that the opening and closing valve plate 521 can be tightly attached to the inner wall of the air duct 510 when in the open state, thereby minimizing airflow resistance, improving exhaust gas collection efficiency, and ensuring that the opening and closing valve plate 521 will not detach from the air duct 510.

[0065] It should be noted that the cross section of the air guide tube 510 in this embodiment is a square tube, and four groups of opening and closing valve plates 521 are correspondingly provided, with the angle of each group being 90° to close the above square tube.

[0066] As a supplementary embodiment, a baffle portion 525 is also mounted on the connecting portion 5212. When the opening and closing assembly 520 in the air duct 510 is in the closed state, the baffle portion 525 is located in the first avoidance groove 511 and the second avoidance groove 512. For example, when the air hood 210 is removed from any air duct 510, the opening and closing assembly 520 is first switched from an open state to a closed state. At this point, a relatively enclosed space is formed at the upper end of the air duct 510 (above the closure member), allowing the air hood 210 to fully absorb residual exhaust gas, thereby further improving recovery efficiency.

[0067] In this embodiment, the first switch valve device 500 also includes an air guide ring 530, which is arranged outside the screw extrusion device 310 and connected to the injection device 320 to guide the exhaust gas discharged from the screw extrusion device 310 and the nozzle to the air guide pipe 510 of the first switch valve device 500 respectively.

[0068] As a specific embodiment, the telescopic device 400 includes a telescopic mounting plate 410 and a telescopic cylinder 420 arranged on the telescopic mounting plate 410. The swing device 100 is slidingly connected to the telescopic mounting plate 410 and fixedly connected to the telescopic end of the telescopic cylinder 420.

[0069] Furthermore, the swing device 100 includes a swinging fixed plate 110 that is slidingly connected to the telescopic mounting plate 410, and a swinging motor 120 is installed on the swinging fixed plate 110; the swinging device 100 also includes a swinging movable plate 130, a first gear 141 is installed on one side of the swinging fixed plate 110, and a second gear 142 is installed on one side of the swinging movable plate 130, and the second gear 142 is engaged with the first gear 141; a first synchronous wheel 151 is installed on the other side of the swinging fixed plate 110, and a second synchronous wheel 152 is installed on the other side of the swinging movable plate 130, and the first synchronous wheel 151 and the second synchronous wheel 152 are respectively provided with a synchronous belt 153; the motor shaft of the swinging motor 120 is respectively connected to the first gear 141 and the first synchronous wheel 151.

[0070] It is understood that when the position of the air hood 210 needs to be adjusted, the swing motor 120 first drives the synchronous wheel structure, which, in conjunction with the meshing of the gear structure, causes the swing movable plate 130 to swing relative to the swing fixed plate 110, causing the air hood 210, which is fixed to the swing movable plate 130, to swing synchronously. Subsequently, the telescopic mounting plate 410 is extended by the telescopic cylinder 420 to adjust the extension and contraction of the air hood 210, so that the air hood 210 is located outside the air duct 510. This structure is more suitable for scenarios where the load on the air hood 210 is relatively small, further reducing resource consumption.

[0071] Additionally, a horizontal cylinder 161 and a horizontal guide rail may be installed on the swinging movable plate 130 , a horizontal slider 162 may be slidably connected to the horizontal guide rail, and the air collecting hood 210 may be fixedly connected to the bottom of the horizontal slider 162 to improve the flexibility of the air collecting hood 210 .

[0072] Additionally, a universal joint structure may be installed on the swing fixing plate 110 , and the universal joint structure is connected to the horizontal slider 162 to improve the stability of the air collecting hood 210 .

[0073] As another optional implementation, a combination of a three-axis moving platform (including linear motors in the X, Y, and Z directions) and a rotary cylinder can be selected to achieve the swing of the gas collecting hood 210 in space.

[0074] Example 2:

[0075] This embodiment further provides a method for recovering injection molding volatiles, which is applied to the plastic volatiles recovery system in the first embodiment, comprising:

[0076] S1. Add plastic raw materials and inject the molten plastic raw materials into the injection molding device 330, and recover the exhaust gas through the gas collecting hood 210 at the first position 001;

[0077] S2. After the mold cavity is about to be filled with the plastic raw material, the plastic raw material is cooled, and the gas collecting hood 210 is moved to the second position 002, and the waste gas is recovered through the gas collecting hood 210 at the second position 002;

[0078] S3. After cooling, take out the plastic workpiece, move the gas collecting hood 210 to a third position, and recover the waste gas through the gas collecting hood 210 at the third position.

[0079] Steps S1 to S3 above all involve the movement of the air hood 210. The movement principle of the air hood 210 is as follows: first, the swing motor 120 drives the first gear 141 and the first synchronous wheel 151 to rotate. These gears, in meshing with each other and acting on the synchronous belt 153, drive the swing movable plate 130 to swing in space. Then, the telescopic cylinder 420 controls the air hood 210 to move toward or away from the air duct 510.

[0080] In the above-mentioned steps S1 to S2, the process of the gas collecting hood 210 approaching the gas duct 510 is involved, and the principle is as follows: the magnetic field applied by the gas collecting hood 210 outside the gas duct 510 makes the sum of the moments of the opening and closing valve plate 521 on the outside (the sum of the moments of gravity and the magnetic field) greater than the gravitational moment on the inside, thereby driving the opening and closing valve plate 521 to flip, so that the plane where the opening and closing valve plate 521 is located is inclined to the gas outlet direction of the gas duct 510. At this time, the inclination direction of the opening and closing valve plate 521 is also set at an acute angle to the gas outlet direction of the gas duct 510, which means that the exhausted gas can be discharged along the opening and closing valve plate 521, playing a role in diversion.

[0081] As described above, the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the present invention, rather than to limit the same. Although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the above embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that the technical solutions described in the above embodiments can still be modified, or some of the technical features thereof can be replaced by equivalents. However, these modifications or replacements do not deviate the essence of the corresponding technical solutions from the spirit and scope of the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention.
