The term "two or more" includes two or more than two cases.
[0029] See also Figures 1 to 7As shown, an embodiment of the present application provides a molding cooling and pressure-maintaining device for plastic mold processing, including a lower sealing plate 10 and a top plate 60, and a lower template 40 and an upper template 50 located between the lower sealing plate 10 and the top plate 60, and also includes: an injection device 70, a boosting mechanism 80 and a compensation mechanism 90, the injection device 70 can be docked to the injection hole 71 of the top tube of the top plate 60; a part of the boosting mechanism 80 is arranged on the injection device 70 and can move synchronously with the injection device 70, and another part of the boosting mechanism 80 is arranged on the top plate 60 for generating a positive pressure environment; the compensation mechanism 90 is arranged in the inner wall of the upper template 50 and is connected to the cavity located between the upper template 50 and the lower template 40, and the compensation material is stored in the compensation mechanism 90 for providing shrinkage compensation when the cavity material cools and shrinks; wherein the positive pressure environment generated by the boosting mechanism 80 can act on the compensation mechanism 90.
[0030] In the present application, a boosting mechanism 80 is provided on the injection device 70 and the top plate 60. The boosting mechanism 80 generates pressure by pressing and boosting. In the process of the injection molding device moving toward the mold, a positive pressure environment is generated with the help of this moving power, for example, a positive pressure cavity is formed and stored in the upper template 50. Then the injection device 70 starts to inject the molten material until the entire cavity is filled. Part of the molten material will also enter the compensation mechanism 90 connected to the cavity, and then the mold cooling link is started, such as using an oil cooling medium to circulate through the mold to evenly cool the cavity. In this process, the temperature of the material in the cavity drops and the overall shape will shrink slightly. Then the compensation mechanism 90 compensates the material into the cavity. The compensation position can be one, two or four places. It should be noted that since the compensation material stored in the compensation mechanism 90 is located outside the cavity, the compensation material will also cool down synchronously during the cooling process. Some technologies in the existing technology use a spring 87 to apply thrust, but they need to be combined with additional elastic adjustment components. Some technical solutions use separately configured drive parts to actively control the material thrust to make it enter the cavity for material compensation, but the accuracy is somewhat lacking. Improper control of the thrust effect may affect the shape quality of the internal material. Therefore, in the default state of this device, the natural flow of compensation material into the cavity can be used for material compensation. If the compensation material is difficult to enter the compensation position due to lower material temperature, poor fluidity or friction, the automatic pressure monitoring means of the compensation structure can be used to automatically release positive pressure gas at the right time, and the positive pressure will continue to be applied to the compensation material that fails to enter the cavity for strong compensation, thereby effectively ensuring that the compensation material is compensated in a long-lasting, gentle and effective manner to make up for the defects caused by profile shrinkage.
[0031] like Figure 1 、 Figure 2 、 Figure 3 and Figure 5 As shown, in some examples, further, the boosting mechanism 80 includes: a fixing kit 81, a force-applying member 82, a piston cylinder 83, a piston block 84, a sealing ring 85 and a spring 87, the fixing kit 81 is fixedly mounted on the outer wall of the injection device 70; the force-applying member 82 is fixedly arranged below the fixing kit 81, the force-applying member 82 is located on the side of the injection device 70, and is located on the upper part of the injection hole 71; the piston cylinder 83 is fixedly arranged on the top of the top plate 60; the piston block 84 is movable in the inner cavity of the piston cylinder 83 along the moving direction of the injection device 70, and the top of the piston block 84 protrudes from the outside of the top of the piston cylinder 83 and corresponds to the position of the force-applying member 82; the sealing ring 85 is mounted on the outer wall of the piston block 84 and fits tightly against the inner wall of the piston cylinder 83; the spring 87 is arranged in the inner cavity of the piston cylinder 83, and the top of the spring 87 abuts against the bottom end face of the piston block 84.
[0032] In this example, the boosting mechanism 80 generates a positive pressure environment by cooperating with a force-applying member 82, a piston cylinder 83, and a piston block 84. Specifically, the fixing kit 81 is firmly mounted on the outer wall of the injection device 70 to provide support and fixation for the force-applying member 82. The force-applying member 82 is located above the injection hole 71 and applies a thrust to the piston block 84 by following the movement of the injection device 70. The piston cylinder 83 forms a closed cavity and applies pressure. When the force-applying member 82 applies pressure, the piston block 84 is pushed downward, and the sealing ring 85 ensures that the piston block 84 and the piston A good seal is formed between the inner walls of the cylinder 83 to prevent gas leakage; the spring 87 is located in the piston cylinder 83, abutting against the bottom end of the piston block 84, providing an initial reset force, so that the piston block 84 can return to its initial position after the force is released; the entire process is driven by the force generated by the force-applying member 82, which drives the piston block 84 downward to generate positive pressure, and then transfers the gas to the compensation mechanism 90; the purpose is to ensure that the compensation material can flow into the cavity at the appropriate time and position, thereby improving the molding quality and material uniformity, and enhancing the overall reliability of the product.
[0033] like Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, in some examples, further, the boosting mechanism 80 also includes: a force-bearing member 86 and a one-way valve 88, the force-bearing member 86 is telescopically arranged at the top end of the piston block 84, and the force-bearing member 86 is used to contact the bottom end of the force-applying member 82; the one-way valve 88 is fixedly arranged on the air outlet end at the bottom end of the piston cylinder 83.
[0034] In this example, the boosting mechanism 80 further optimizes the efficiency and control effect of positive pressure generation through the force-bearing member 86 and the one-way valve 88; wherein, the force-bearing member 86 is installed at the top of the piston block 84, and can adjust the overall height of the piston block 84 and the force-bearing member 86 by telescopic adjustment, thereby achieving the effect of adjusting the boost pressure in a single acceptance; for example, a threaded structure can be screwed in, or a screw can be applied from the side to fix the extension of the force-bearing member 86 at the upper end of the piston block 84, thereby enhancing the flexibility of the boosting mechanism 80; the one-way valve 88 is fixed to the air outlet end at the bottom end of the piston cylinder 83 to ensure that during the boosting process, the gas can only be discharged from the inside of the piston cylinder 83 into the inner cavity of the upper template 50, and cannot flow in the opposite direction; avoiding the loss of the positive pressure environment and ensuring a stable positive air pressure state during the injection and cooling process.
[0035] like Figure 2 、 Figure 4 、 Figure 5 、 Figure 6 and Figure 7 As shown, in some examples, further, the compensation mechanism 90 includes: a positive pressure air storage pipeline 91, at least one compensation part 92, a sensing part 93 and a blocking part 94, the positive pressure air storage pipeline 91 is located in the inner wall of the upper template 50, and one end of the positive pressure air storage pipeline 91 is connected to the air outlet end below the piston cylinder 83; at least one compensation part 92 is connected to the bottom of the positive pressure air storage pipeline 91, and the compensation part 92 is also connected to the mold cavity; the sensing part 93 is arranged in a one-to-one correspondence with the compensation part 92, the top end of the sensing part 93 is connected to the side of the compensation part 92, and the bottom end of the sensing part 93 is connected to the inner cavity of the mold cavity; the sensing part 93 is used to sense the cooling and shrinkage state of the material in the mold cavity; the blocking part 94 is arranged in the sensing part 93, and the blocking part 94 is blocked on the inner side of the compensation part 92 in the first state, blocking the connection state between the compensation part 92 and the positive pressure air storage pipeline 91; the blocking part 94 releases the blocking state between the compensation part 92 and the positive pressure air storage pipeline 91 in the second state.
[0036] It should be noted that the setting of the compensation mechanism 90 ensures effective compensation during the cooling and shrinkage of the material; specifically, the positive pressure gas storage pipe 91 is embedded in the inner wall of the upper template 50 and connected to the air outlet end below the piston cylinder 83, serving as the compensation part 92 to provide a storage space for positive pressure gas; when the cavity material shrinks due to cooling, the compensation part 92 is connected to the cavity, and can quickly guide the positive pressure gas into the cavity to apply additional pressure to compensate for the shrinkage of the material; the sensing part 93 corresponds to the compensation part 92 one by one, and its top end is connected to the side of the compensation part 92, and the bottom end is connected to the inner cavity of the cavity, monitoring the cooling state of the material in the cavity in real time; this setting enables the sensing part 93 to accurately sense the degree of shrinkage of the material, thereby starting the strong pressure effect on the compensation material at the right time.
[0037] In addition, the blocking portion 94 is arranged inside the sensing portion 93 and has two states: in the first state, the blocking portion 94 blocks the inside of the compensation portion 92, blocking the gas flow between the compensation portion 92 and the positive pressure gas storage pipe 91, and avoiding unnecessary gas leakage; in this state, the material shrinkage in the cavity is normal, and the compensation material can also flow into the cavity naturally for material compensation, without the need for additional pressure to act on the cavity environment, thereby ensuring the molding effect of the material; in the second state, the compensation material may not be able to enter the cavity normally for compensation due to poor fluidity or friction between the mold and the mold. In this case, the blocking portion 94 is unblocked, allowing positive pressure gas to enter the compensation portion 92, applying additional pressure to the compensation material, thereby timely compensating for the material shrinkage caused by cooling in the cavity; therefore, the setting of the blocking portion 94 and the sensing portion 93 effectively improves the response speed and accuracy to the cooling and shrinkage of the material, ensures that the compensation material can quickly and appropriately fill the shrinkage space, significantly improves the quality and consistency of the molded parts, and solves the shortcomings of traditional technology in the material compensation process.
[0038] like Figure 2 、 Figure 4 、 Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, in some examples, further, the compensation part 92 also includes: a branch positive pressure chamber 921, a pushing block 922 and a compensation chamber 923, the branch positive pressure chamber 921 is connected to the bottom of the positive pressure gas storage pipe 91; the compensation chamber 923 is arranged in the branch positive pressure chamber 921 below the blocking part 94; the pushing block 922 can be moved in the vertical direction and is clamped in the compensation chamber 923, and is used to push the compensation material entering the compensation chamber 923 back into the mold cavity.
[0039] In this example, the purpose of the compensation part 92 is to realize the basic material compensation process, but it also has a structure that cooperates with the sensing part 93 and the blocking part 94; the branch positive pressure chamber 921 is located below the positive pressure gas storage pipeline 91, and is responsible for receiving the gas from the positive pressure gas storage pipeline 91, forming an effective positive pressure transmission environment, which can promote the transportation of the compensation material; the compensation chamber 923 is arranged in the branch positive pressure chamber 921 below the blocking part 94, which is specially used to store the compensation material to ensure that it can be released in time when needed; the pushing block 922 can move vertically in the compensation chamber 923, and its main function is to push The compensation material entering the compensation cavity 923 is pushed back into the mold cavity; when the material in the mold cavity cools and shrinks, the positive pressure gas enters the compensation cavity 923 through the branch positive pressure cavity 921, prompting the compensation material to fill the shrinking part of the mold cavity; the vertical movement of the pushing block 922 pushes the compensation material into the mold cavity through the action of the positive pressure gas, ensuring that the material can accurately fill the gap formed by shrinkage; ensuring that the defects caused by material shrinkage can be compensated in a timely and effective manner during the entire molding process, thereby improving the appearance quality and mechanical properties of the molded parts, and overcoming the defects caused by uneven material cooling in traditional technologies.
[0040] like Figure 4 、 Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, in some examples, further, the sensing part 93 includes: a monitoring cavity 931, an intercepting piece 932 and a connecting pipe 933, the monitoring cavity 931 is opened in the inner wall of the upper template 50 adjacent to the compensation cavity 923; the intercepting piece 932 is sealed at the bottom end of the monitoring cavity 931, the intercepting piece 932 and the upper wall of the cavity are located in the same plane, and a plurality of air holes are opened through the intercepting piece 932; one end of the connecting pipe 933 is connected to the inner cavity of the monitoring cavity 931, and the other end extends to the outside of the upper template 50, communicating with the external air.
[0041] In this example, it should be noted that the sensing unit 93 realizes real-time monitoring of the material status in the cavity; specifically, the monitoring cavity 931 is arranged in the inner wall of the upper template 50, and is communicated with the compensation cavity 923, and is responsible for collecting the pressure and gas information in the cavity. For example, when the material in the cavity shrinks, the pressure in the cavity drops, and the pressure in the pressure detection cavity will also be consistent with the pressure in the cavity, thereby achieving a monitoring effect; in addition, the interception piece 932 is sealed at the bottom end of the monitoring cavity 931 to ensure that the monitoring cavity 931 can accurately sense the gas dynamics in the cavity; the air vent runs through the interception piece 932, allowing It allows gas to flow, but effectively blocks liquid or solid materials from entering the monitoring cavity 931, thereby keeping the monitoring environment clean; the connecting pipe 933 connects the monitoring cavity 931 with the outside air, so that the air pressure in the monitoring cavity 931 and the external pressure produce a pressure difference, which can amplify the change of the material in the cavity after cooling with the help of the pressure difference, and is more conducive to sensing this change; thereby providing power for the position movement of the blocking part 94, ensuring that when the pressure of the cavity drops due to material cooling and shrinkage, strong compensation measures can be effectively implemented, solving the problem of untimely compensation caused by the inability to monitor the material status in real time in traditional technologies.
[0042] like Figure 4 and Figure 7 As shown, in some examples, further, the sealing portion 94 includes: a fixing ring 941, an elastic diaphragm 942, an extension rod 943 and a sealing baffle 944, the fixing ring 941 is fixedly arranged in the inner cavity of the monitoring cavity 931; the elastic diaphragm 942 is fixedly arranged on the inner side of the fixing ring 941, and divides the monitoring cavity 931 into a first interval connected to the branch positive pressure cavity 921 and a second interval connected to the mold cavity, wherein the connecting pipe 933 is connected to the first interval in the monitoring cavity 931; one end of the extension rod 943 is fixedly arranged in the middle position of the elastic diaphragm 942, and the other end extends into the branch positive pressure cavity 921; the sealing baffle 944 is fixedly arranged on the end of the extension rod 943 located in the branch positive pressure cavity 921.
[0043] In this example, the blocking portion 94 effectively controls the gas connection relationship between the compensation portion 92 and the branch positive pressure chamber 921; specifically, the fixing ring 941 is firmly installed in the monitoring chamber 931, providing fixed support for the elastic diaphragm 942; the elastic diaphragm 942 is tightly attached to the inner side of the fixing ring 941, dividing the monitoring chamber 931 into a first interval connected to the branch positive pressure chamber 921 and a second interval connected to the mold cavity. The first interval has the same pressure as the external environment, and the second interval has the same pressure as the pressure in the mold cavity. If the compensation material can be naturally compensated to the mold cavity, the pressure in the first interval and the second interval will be the same, and no pressure difference will be generated. Therefore, the elastic diaphragm 942 is in a planar state. When the compensation material fails to enter normally, When compensation is carried out in the cavity, the pressure in the cavity space drops, and the pressure changes in the first interval and the second interval form a pressure difference, and the elastic module deforms, especially the displacement change of the middle position of the elastic diaphragm 942 is most obvious. In addition, the middle position of the elastic diaphragm 942 is connected to the extension rod 943 and the sealing baffle 944; the elastic diaphragm 942 moves due to the internal and external pressure difference, and the extension rod 943 and the sealing baffle 944 move synchronously with the elastic diaphragm 942, and the movement of the sealing baffle makes the compensation part 92 and the branch positive pressure cavity 921 connected; the positive pressure gas flows to the push block 922, and the compensation material is forced to compensate for the gap caused by cooling shrinkage; thereby effectively solving the defect problem caused by uneven material cooling.
[0044] like Figure 4 As shown, in some examples, further, the diameter of the middle portion of the compensation cavity 923 is larger than the diameters at both ends, and the pusher block 922 is located in the area with the larger diameter in the compensation cavity 923 .
[0045] It can be understood that the middle diameter of the compensation cavity 923 is larger than the diameters at both ends, so that the push block 922 can move within a specified range within the compensation cavity 923, on the one hand avoiding the collection of excessive compensation material during the injection molding process, and on the other hand avoiding the push block 922 being pressed into the cavity.
[0046] like Figure 4 As shown, in some examples, further, the diameter of the monitoring cavity 931 is smaller than the diameter of the branch positive pressure cavity 921 .
[0047] It can also be understood that the diameter of the monitoring cavity 931 is smaller than the diameter of the branch positive pressure cavity 921. This design ensures that the monitoring cavity 931 can properly sense the changes in gas pressure in the cavity; since the diameter of the monitoring cavity 931 is smaller, it can more sensitively respond to the state of the cavity; when the material in the cavity cools and shrinks, the monitoring cavity 931 can quickly detect the change in pressure, making the gas pressure compensation mechanism more timely and implementing compensation actions before the material is formed.
[0048] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, in some examples, further, two mold feet 20 are provided on both sides of the top of the lower sealing plate 10, and a lifting mechanism 30 is provided between the two mold feet 20. The lifting mechanism 30 can be connected to the lower wall surface of the cavity. The lifting mechanism 30 can lift the molding material upward when needed to ensure smooth separation and removal of the mold after molding.
