Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of automatic forming of junction boxes, in particular to automatic forming equipment for waterproof junction boxes. Background Art
[0002] A waterproof junction box is a device used to protect wire connection points from moisture. It is widely used in home decoration, power systems, groundwater monitoring and other fields. The main function of a waterproof junction box is to protect wire connection points to prevent moisture from entering and causing electrical failures. They are usually used in humid or flood-prone environments, such as basements, outdoor power facilities, and underwater equipment. Waterproof junction boxes are usually made of corrosion-resistant, high-temperature-resistant, and UV-resistant materials, such as PVC and ABS plastics. These materials not only provide good mechanical strength, but also can be used for a long time in harsh environments.
[0003] The current production of waterproof junction boxes is usually carried out by automated injection molding equipment. Punching is a key step in the manufacturing process of waterproof junction boxes. The main purpose of punching is to provide the necessary openings for the junction box for the entry and exit and connection of cables. These openings must be precise and uniform to ensure that the cables can pass smoothly and the structure of the junction box will not be damaged during the installation process. In the prior art, the existing waterproof junction boxes need to be punched again by production personnel after injection molding to ensure the unobstructed reserved holes of the waterproof junction box during the injection molding process, but this process usually requires manual operation by production personnel, which not only reduces production efficiency, but also makes it difficult to ensure product quality and consistency.

[0024] Working principle: First, the raw material particles enter the melting mechanism through the feeding mechanism.

The transmission rod and stirring blades of the anti-blocking mechanism prevent the particles from being blocked, ensuring that the raw materials enter the melting box smoothly.
[0025] In the melting mechanism, the plastic particles are heated to a molten state by the heating device, and the two sets of extrusion screws rotate synchronously under the drive of the driving device to extrude and inject the molten plastic into the molding mechanism. The temperature monitoring device monitors the temperature in the melting box in real time to ensure that the plastic particles melt at an appropriate temperature. The molding mechanism receives the molten plastic and extrude and cool it to form it. After the molding is completed, the ejection device ejects the molded part from the mold. The molded part falls onto the transport conveyor belt and is identified and positioned by the positioning and placement mechanism.

After the punching is completed, the second reset spring resets the punching top die.

If a position deviation is detected, the system will issue a warning and suspend the operation of the device.
