[0026] The following will be combined with the attached Figure 1 -Attached Figure 3 The present invention is further illustrated by the following embodiments.
[0027] This embodiment discloses an injection mold for a medical container product.
[0028] Reference Figure 1 The injection mold of the medical container product includes an injection molding table 2, an injection molding frame 1, an upper mold 11 and a lower mold 21. The injection molding frame 1 is fixedly arranged on the injection molding table 2, and the upper mold 11 is arranged on the injection molding frame 1 for lifting. The upper mold 11 is a movable mold, and the lower mold 21 is fixedly arranged on the injection molding table 2. The lower mold 21 is a fixed mold. The upper mold 11 and the lower mold 21 are arranged relative to each other in the vertical direction. When the upper mold 11 descends relative to the lower mold 21, it is a mold closing process, and when the upper mold 11 rises relative to the lower mold 21, it is a mold opening process. In order to realize the lifting action of the upper mold 11, a first driving member 31 is arranged on the top of the injection molding frame 1. In this embodiment, the first driving member 31 is a first cylinder, and the telescopic end of the first cylinder faces downward. The upper mold 11 is fixedly connected to the lower end of the telescopic end of the first cylinder, so that the upper mold 11 is lifted and lowered under the control of the first cylinder.
[0029] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 2The upper mold 11 has an upper cavity 12 at the bottom, and the lower mold 21 has a lower cavity 22 at the top. When the upper mold 11 and the lower mold 21 are molded together, the upper cavity 12 and the lower cavity 22 form a complete cavity, and the shape of the cavity is set according to the specific shape of the medical container product. The side wall of the upper mold 11 has an injection port 41, and an injection channel 42 is provided between the injection port 41 and the upper cavity 12. After the upper mold 11 and the lower mold 21 are molded together, the injection port 41 and the injection channel 42 are used to inject molten plastic into the cavity for injection molding. In other embodiments, the injection port 41 can also be opened at the top of the upper mold 11.
[0030] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 2 The upper mold 11 is provided with a disinfection port 51, and a disinfection channel 52 is provided between the disinfection port 51 and the upper mold cavity 12. When the upper mold 11 and the lower mold 21 are molded together, the disinfection port 51 and the disinfection channel 52 are used to inject disinfectant into the mold cavity. Furthermore, the lower mold cavity 22 is provided with a drainage channel with an opening and closing function, and the disinfectant is discharged through the opened drainage channel. Through the above arrangement, when the injection mold of the present invention is used to produce medical container products, disinfectant can be regularly injected into the mold cavity after the mold is closed for disinfection, and the disinfectant can be smoothly discharged after disinfection, so as to achieve the disinfection effect of the mold cavity, and better ensure that the medical container products can meet the requirements of the hygiene standards.
[0031] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 2 In particular, in the present invention, the injection port 41 also serves as the disinfection port 51, and the injection channel 42 also serves as the disinfection channel 52. On the one hand, the injected disinfectant can disinfect the injection port 41 and the injection channel 42 at the same time. On the other hand, this can make full use of the injection port 41 and the injection channel 42 to simplify the structure of the upper mold 11.
[0032] Reference Figure 2 and Figure 3 The bottom of the injection molding table 2 is provided with a push rod 6, and the upper end of the push rod 6 vertically penetrates from the bottom of the lower mold 21 into the lower mold cavity 22. After the injection mold is injection-molded and the mold is opened, the push rod 6 can push out the molded medical container product by rising upward, so as to achieve the effect of convenient material removal. In order to realize the lifting action of the push rod 6, a second driving member 32 is provided at the bottom of the injection molding table 2. In this embodiment, the second driving member 32 is a second cylinder, and the telescopic end of the second cylinder faces upward. The push rod 6 is fixedly connected to the upper end of the telescopic end of the second cylinder, so that the push rod 6 is lifted and lowered under the control of the second cylinder.
[0033] Reference Figure 2 and Figure 3, the top rod 6 includes a cylinder 7 and a T-shaped rod 8. The cylinder 7 is hollow and has an open top. A partition 73 is arranged in the middle of the cylinder 7. The upper end of the T-shaped rod 8 is a thick end and the lower end is a thin end. The lower end of the T-shaped rod 8 extends into the cylinder 7 and passes through the partition 73. The upper end of the T-shaped rod 8 abuts against the upper end of the cylinder 7. A third driving member 33 is arranged at the bottom of the cylinder 7. In this embodiment, the third driving member 33 is a third cylinder. The telescopic end of the third cylinder faces upward. The telescopic end of the third cylinder is fixedly connected to the lower end of the T-shaped rod 8. The third cylinder drives the T-shaped rod 8 to move up and down. In other embodiments, the third driving member 33 can also be an electric cylinder as long as it can realize the lifting and lowering drive of the T-shaped rod 8. The lower end side wall of the cylinder 7 is also provided with a wire hole 75. The wire hole 75 is used for the pipeline or wire of the third driving member 33 to enter and exit. A through hole is also provided between the inner and outer walls of the cylinder 7. The through hole is located above the partition 73. Through the above-mentioned arrangement, a drainage channel with an opening and closing function is formed between the partition 73 and the upper end of the T-bar 8. The principle is: when disinfectant is injected into the cavity and needs to be discharged, the third driving member 33 controls the T-bar 8 to rise, so that the upper end of the T-bar 8 is separated from the upper end of the cylinder 7. At this time, the disinfectant can enter the cylinder 7 and finally be discharged through the through hole in the cylinder 7. In addition, in order to further guide the disinfectant to be discharged to the specified position, the through hole of the cylinder 7 can be connected to a pipeline. After the disinfectant is discharged, the third driving member 33 controls the upper end of the T-bar 8 to abut against the upper end of the cylinder 7 again to achieve the closure of the drainage channel.
[0034] Reference Figure 2 In order to avoid the ejector pin 6, an avoidance hole 23 is provided at the center of the tabletop of the injection molding table 2. The cross-sectional size of the avoidance hole 23 is between the cross-sectional size of the lower mold 21 and the cross-sectional size of the ejector pin 6. The lower mold 21 is arranged above the avoidance hole 23. The ejector pin 6 extends into the lower mold 21 through the avoidance hole 23. By providing the avoidance hole 23, the obstruction of the tabletop of the injection molding table 2 to the ejector pin 6 can be reduced, and it is also convenient for the through hole of the drainage channel of the ejector pin 6 to be connected to the external pipeline. Furthermore, a positioning ring 24 is provided on the tabletop of the injection molding table 2. The positioning ring 24 is provided around the avoidance hole 23. The inner contour of the positioning ring 24 corresponds to the outer contour of the lower mold 21. The positioning ring 24 is used to position the lower mold 21 on the tabletop of the injection molding table 2. The positioning ring 24 is connected to the injection molding table 2 by screws.
[0035] Reference Figure 2 and Figure 3Based on the design that the ejector rod 6 is divided into a cylinder 7 and a T-shaped rod 8, in the invention, the ejection process of the ejector rod 6 on the medical container product includes a slow stage and a fast stage in sequence. In the slow stage, only the ejector rod 6 is lifted. In the fast stage, when the ejector rod 6 is lifted, the T-shaped rod 8 is also lifted. The advantage of including the slow stage and the fast stage in sequence in the ejection process of the medical container product by the ejector rod 6 is that the slow ejection in the early stage can effectively reduce the impact force applied to the medical container product during the initial ejection, and reduce the cracking or deformation caused by the sudden force. The fast ejection in the later stage can speed up the ejection efficiency while ensuring the quality of the product, and avoid reducing the ejection efficiency due to the slow ejection throughout the process.
[0036] Reference Figure 2 and Figure 3 , the lower end of the T-bar 8 is sleeved with an elastic member, which is located at the lower end of the partition 73 and is squeezed as the T-bar 8 rises. By setting the elastic member, in the rapid stage of ejection of the medical container product by the ejector 6, the gradually increasing elastic force will gradually slow down the ejection speed of the T-bar 8, and finally slow down the overall ejection speed of the ejector 6, so as to avoid the medical container product from bouncing too high due to too fast ejection, thereby protecting the ejected medical container product. It should be noted that although the ejection speed of the medical container product by the ejector 6 will gradually decrease in the rapid stage, it is still higher than the ejection speed in the slow stage, ensuring that the injection molded medical container product still has a good ejection efficiency. In this embodiment, the elastic member is a spring 74, and the two ends of the spring 74 are respectively connected to the partition 73 and the telescopic end of the third driving member 33.
[0037] Reference Figure 3 The cylinder 7 is a spliced structure. Specifically, the cylinder 7 is divided into a first cylinder 71 and a second cylinder 72 from top to bottom. Both ends of the first cylinder 71 are penetrated, and the upper end of the second cylinder 72 is penetrated. The lower end of the first cylinder 71 and the upper end of the second cylinder 72 are connected by screws. The cylinder 7 composed of a spliced structure can facilitate the installation of the third driving member 33 and the spring 74 in the cylinder 7.
[0038] The above are all preferred embodiments of the present invention, and the protection scope of the present application is not limited thereto. Therefore, any equivalent changes made according to the structure, shape, and principle of the present application should be included in the protection scope of the present application.
