Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of plastic molding, in particular to an extrusion molding device and method based on the production of plastic hollow tubes. Background Art

[0002] In the extrusion process of plastic tubes, the plastic material needs to be heated to a molten state. Different types of plastics have different melting temperatures. When the plastic material reaches the melting temperature, it becomes soft and can be extruded into the desired tubular shape through the die of the extruder.

[0003] Announcement No. CN117183279B discloses a plastic tube forming device and a forming method thereof. The plastic tube forming device and the forming method thereof, through the setting of the cooling component, can be sleeved on the outer side of the corresponding internal cooling tube after the formed workpiece body enters the cooling rack. With the filling of the coolant, the inner and outer sides of the workpiece body can be cooled, thereby ensuring the cooling uniformity. At the same time, after the workpiece body is cut, the internal cooling tube and the formed workpiece can be turned over by the rotation of the rotating disc rack, which is convenient for the transportation of the workpiece body and ensures the cooling efficiency of the equipment. By reducing the temperature difference between the inside and outside of the workpiece body during cooling, the forming effect of the workpiece body is improved.

[0004] The inside and outside of the plastic pipe are cooled synchronously to make the cooling of the plastic pipe more uniform, avoid excessive temperature difference between the inside and the outside, and reduce the risk of stress concentration and deformation; maintain the dimensional stability of the plastic pipe, reduce problems such as uneven wall thickness, distortion or bending caused by uneven cooling, and improve the overall accuracy and consistency of the product; accelerate the cooling process of the plastic pipe, shorten the production cycle, and improve production efficiency; reduce surface defects such as cooling marks, dents and ripples, and improve the surface finish of the finished product.

[0005] Due to the closed-loop shape of the plastic tube and the length of the plastic extrusion, the process of simultaneously heating the inside and outside of the plastic tube is relatively complicated. As shown in the above patent, a technical solution is provided that can simultaneously cool the inside and outside of the plastic tube, extending from one end of the plastic tube to the inside of the plastic tube to cool the plastic tube.

[0071] The following will disclose multiple embodiments of the present invention with the accompanying drawings. For the purpose of clear description, many practical details will be described together in the following description. However, it should be understood that these practical details should not be used to limit the present invention. In other words, in some embodiments of the present invention, these practical details are not necessary. And if it is possible to implement, the features of different embodiments can be applied interchangeably.

[0072] Unless otherwise defined, all words (including technical and scientific terms) used herein have their usual meanings, which can be understood by those familiar with this field. Furthermore, the definitions of the above words in commonly used dictionaries should be interpreted as the meanings consistent with the relevant fields of the present invention in the content of this specification. Unless otherwise clearly defined, these words will not be interpreted as idealized or overly formal meanings.

[0073] The following explains the relationships and terms used in the present invention:

[0074] Parallelism: The parallelism defined in the present invention is not limited to absolute parallelism. This definition of parallelism can be understood as basic parallelism, which allows for non-absolute parallelism due to factors such as assembly tolerance, design tolerance, and influence of structural flatness. Small angular errors are allowed. For example, an assembly error range of less than 10 degrees can be understood as a parallel relationship.

[0075] Vertical: The verticality defined in the present invention is not limited to an absolute vertical intersection (angle of 90 degrees). It allows for non-absolute vertical intersections caused by factors such as assembly tolerance, design tolerance, and influence of structural flatness. It also allows for errors in a small angle range. For example, the assembly error range of 80 to 100 degrees can be understood as a vertical relationship.

[0076] Ground: The ground defined in the present invention is not limited to a certain material or region, but only a platform for carrying the present invention, and stacking, tilting, and flatness changes are allowed. For example, cement ground, tile ground, work platform, etc. can all be interpreted as ground.

[0077] The above explanation does not completely include the relationship definitions given in the present invention, but only represents a part of the present invention.

[0078] The invention provides an extrusion molding device based on the production of a plastic hollow tube, which can cool the inside and the outside of the plastic tube simultaneously during the extrusion process of the plastic tube without affecting the extrusion length of the plastic tube.

[0079] like Figure 1-2 As shown, in one embodiment, the extrusion molding device includes a body 1, which is placed on the ground, and an extruder 2 including an extrusion chamber is arranged on the upper part thereof, and a detachable and replaceable mold 3 is installed at the discharge port of the extruder 2, and the mold 3 corresponds to plastic pipes of different sizes and specifications;

[0080] The extrusion molding device also includes:

[0081] The external cooling system 4 is installed outside the machine body 1. The external cooling system 4 is arranged on the extrusion path of the plastic pipe and is provided with a nozzle 44 facing the axis of the extruder 2. The nozzle 44 sprays the plastic pipe to cool it down. A water tank 7 is arranged below the machine body 1 corresponding to the nozzle 44. The water tank 7 is connected with the external cooling system 4 to form a circulation.

[0082] The internal cooling system 5 is installed outside the extruder 2 and extends to the inside of the injection cavity. The internal cooling system 5 passes through the middle of the mold 3 from the injection cavity. During the extrusion process of the plastic tube, the internal cooling system 5 is located inside the plastic tube to cool the plastic tube. The cooling position of the internal cooling system 5 corresponds to the cooling position of the external cooling system 4.

[0083] The rotating assembly 6 is installed outside the external cooling system 4. The rotating assembly 6 contacts the plastic pipe and rotates circumferentially around the axis of the plastic pipe. The rotating assembly 6 is equipped with a flexible scraper 63 arranged in a circumferential array outside the plastic pipe. The flexible scraper 63 rotates to scrape off water droplets on the outer wall of the plastic pipe.

[0084] In one feasible method, the external cooling system 4 cooperates with the internal cooling system 5 to cool the plastic tube, and the positions of the external cooling system 4 and the internal cooling system 5 correspond to each other, and one plastic tube is cooled at the same time to ensure the cooling effect of the plastic tube, and the internal cooling system 5 extends from the inside of the injection cavity to the inside of the plastic tube, rather than from the head position of the plastic tube to the inside of the plastic tube, thereby avoiding the problem of internal cooling of the plastic tube limiting the length of a single plastic tube.

[0085] The internal cooling system 5 has two cooling states. Therefore, the internal cooling system 5 is disassembled. The extended part of the internal cooling system 5 is connected to the extruder 2 by a threaded connection. After the extended part is removed, the cooling position of the internal cooling system 5 is located inside the plastic pipe corresponding to the position of the mold 3. After the extended part is connected, the cooling position of the internal cooling system 5 corresponds to the cooling position of the external cooling system 4.

[0086] like Figure 2 as well as Fig.15 As shown, in one embodiment, the water tank 7 is arranged along the extrusion direction of the extruder, and the spray range of the nozzle 44 of the external cooling system 4 of the water tank 7 is sprayed, and the external cooling system 4 includes:

[0087] like Figure 15-18 As shown, the positioning frame 41 is located outside the machine body 1, and the top of the positioning frame 41 supports the annular connector 5742. The mounting tube 43 is rotatably arranged inside the annular connector 5742. The mounting tube 43 can rotate relative to the annular connector 5742, and the nozzle 44 is arranged at one end of the mounting tube 43;

[0088] The nozzle 44 is arranged at an angle, and during the spraying process, the nozzle 44 pushes the mounting tube 43 to rotate through the reaction force.

[0089] In one feasible method, the annular connector 5742 is in a connected state with the mounting tube 43, the annular connector 5742 is supported and limited by the positioning frame 41, the annular connector 5742 cannot rotate, and a reaction force is generated when the nozzle 44 sprays, and the nozzle 44 is arranged at an angle, and the reaction force of the spraying of the nozzle 44 is used to realize the rotation of the mounting tube 43.

[0090] Since the rotation of the mounting tube 43 changes the position of the nozzle 44, multiple positions on the outside of the plastic tube can directly contact the cooling water, thereby ensuring that the heat dissipation on the outside of the plastic tube is more uniform.

[0091] like Figure 16-18 As shown, in one embodiment, the external cooling system 4 includes:

[0092] The guide groove 45 is provided on the outside of the body 1. A guide rail 46 is provided on the outside of the guide groove 45. The guide rail 46 is embedded in the guide groove 45 and slides inside the guide groove 45. The positioning frame 41 is detachably mounted on the outside of the guide rail 46.

[0093] A circulating water tank 47 is installed outside the guide rail 46. A cooler 54 is arranged outside the circulating water tank 47 to cool the circulating water.

[0094] The tank body 48 can be slidably mounted on the inner side of the machine body 1. The tank body 48 is connected to the water tank 7 and is connected to the cooler 54 via a hose 49. The cooling water in the water tank 7 enters the circulating water tank 47 via the hose 49.

[0095] The first circulation pump 410 is installed outside the first circulation water tank 47 and extends into the first circulation water tank 47 to extract cooling water from the circulation water tank 47. A connecting pipe 411 is arranged between the first circulation pump 410 and the connector 57 for communication between the two.

[0096] In this embodiment, a slidable guide rail 46 is configured to adjust the spraying position of the nozzle 44. The length of the guide groove 45 is smaller than the length of the water trough 7. When the guide rail 46 moves to the two ends of the guide groove 45, the cooling water sprayed by the nozzle 44 can always drip into the water trough 7.

[0097] The trough body 48 is connected to the water trough 7, and the cooling water inside the water trough 7 enters the trough body 48 to facilitate the recovery of the cooling water. In order to further improve the recovery effect of the water trough 7, the bottom of the water trough 7 is set to an inclined state, and the trough body 48 is at the lowest point of the water trough 7 and is connected to the water trough 7. Since the position of the trough body 48 is fixed, the setting of the hose 49 can avoid interfering with the movement of the guide rail 46.

[0098] Among them, since the connecting tube 411 is closer to the extruded plastic tube, in order to ensure the service life of the connecting tube 411, the connecting tube 411 is a metal tube, and since the positioning frame 41 follows the position change of the guide rail 46, the connecting tube 411 is a metal tube and does not affect the movement of the guide rail 46.

[0099] In another embodiment, in order to ensure the stability of the guide rail 46, a rotatable positioning head is provided at both ends of the guide rail 46. The positioning head is threadedly installed inside the guide rail 46 and can contact the machine body 1. When the guide rail 46 needs to be positioned, the positioning head rotates to increase the friction between the machine body 1 to ensure the stable position of the guide rail 46.

[0100] like Figure 3-10 As shown, in one embodiment, the internal cooling system 5 includes:

[0101] A double-layer circulation pipeline 51 is installed inside the extruder 2. The inner layer of the double-layer circulation pipeline 51 conveys circulating water, and the outer layer conveys circulating medium. At least four partitions are arranged inside the outer layer to divide the outer layer into four outer cavities. The four outer cavities form two circulation cavities. The circulating medium circulates inside the two circulation cavities.

[0102] The cooling water circulation system 52 and the medium circulation system 53 are installed on one side of the extruder 2, and the cooling water circulation system 52 and the medium circulation system 53 have the same structure. The cooling water circulation system 52 is connected to the inner layer, and the medium circulation system 53 is connected to the outer layer.

[0103] In one feasible method, a double-layer circulation pipeline 51 is set up to ensure the temperature of the cooling water transported in the inner layer through the circulating medium configured on the outer side, so as to avoid excessive temperature increase during the cooling water transportation process, resulting in the cooling water being unable to achieve the expected effect when spraying.

[0104] The outer layer can be circulated to prevent the temperature from being transferred to the inner layer and affecting the temperature of the cooling water through the rapid flow of the circulating medium. The present invention does not limit the specific material of the circulating medium, as long as it has low thermal conductivity. Exemplarily, the circulating medium is a special oil or a coolant.

[0105] like Figure 5-8 As shown, in one embodiment, the cooling water circulation system 52 and / or the medium circulation system 53 includes:

[0106] A cooler 54 is installed outside the extruder 2 or the machine body 1 and is used to cool the circulating medium or cooling water. A liquid storage tank 55 is arranged outside the cooler 54 and is connected to the liquid storage tank 55. A second circulating pump 56 is arranged outside the liquid storage tank 55.

[0107] A connector 57 is provided at one end of the double-layer circulation pipeline 51 close to the second circulation pump 56, and the second circulation pump 56 is connected to the double-layer circulation pipeline 51 through the connector 57;

[0108] The connector 57 connected to the medium circulation system 53 is provided with two liquid inlet pipes 58 and liquid outlet pipes 59 corresponding to the two circulation chambers. The liquid inlet pipe 58 is connected to the second circulation pump 56 , and the liquid outlet pipe 59 is connected to the cooler 54 .

[0109] In one feasible method, providing a connector 57 can make it easier to connect the second circulation pump 56 or the liquid storage tank 55 with the double-layer circulation pipeline 51. The connector 57 is connected to the double-layer circulation pipeline 51 by means of threads or nuts, thereby ensuring the stability of the connection between the connector 57 and the double-layer circulation pipeline 51.

[0110] like Figure 9-11 As shown, in one embodiment, the internal circulation system further comprises:

[0111] Extension pipe 510, the extension pipe 510 is connected to the double-layer circulation pipeline 51, and the extension pipe 510 is installed on the outside of the extruder 2 through a nut. The extension pipe 510 is arranged in two sections, one section connected to the double-layer circulation pipeline 51 is a double-layer arrangement, and the other section is a single-layer arrangement. The double-layer section of the extension pipe 510 has the same structure as the double-layer circulation pipeline 51;

[0112] A pressing plate 511 is provided at one end where the double-layer circulation pipeline 51 is connected to the extension pipe 510. The pressing plate 511 is used to seal the outer layer of the double-layer circulation pipeline 51. After the extension pipe 510 is connected to the double-layer circulation pipeline 51, the pressing plate 511 is pressed. After the pressing plate 511 is pressed, the double-layer circulation pipeline 51 is connected to the extension pipe 510.

[0113] The spray hole 512 is formed at one end of the extension tube 510 extending outward, and cooling water is sprayed from the spray hole 512 to the inner wall of the plastic tube.

[0114] In one feasible method, an extension pipe 510 is provided to be connected to the double-layer circulation pipeline 51, so that the spraying position of the internal cooling water can be set corresponding to the position corresponding to the external cooling system 4 to ensure the cooling position of the external cooling system 4 and the internal cooling system 5, and to perform internal and external synchronous cooling when cooling the plastic pipe.

[0115] The pressure plate 511 is used to control the circulation state of the double-layer circulation pipeline 51.

[0116] Optionally, a section of the extension tube 510 connecting to the double-layer circulation pipeline 51 protrudes outward, and the double-layer circulation pipeline 51 is provided with a depression corresponding to the protrusion. The protrusion and the depression cooperate to limit the rotation of the extension tube 510, so that the extension tube 510 does not rotate relative to the double-layer circulation pipeline 51. After the protrusion is pressed on the extrusion plate 511, the connection state of the two outer cavities is changed to a separation state, and the two cavities are connected through the inside of the extension tube 510.

[0117] like Figure 12-14 As shown, in one embodiment, the rotating assembly 6 includes:

[0118] A connecting frame 61 is installed on the outside of the positioning frame 41. A rotating frame 62 is arranged inside the connecting frame 61 and can rotate relative to the connecting frame 61. A flexible scraper 63 is installed inside the rotating frame 62. A groove 64 is formed on the side of the flexible scraper 63 that contacts the outer wall of the plastic tube.

[0119] The flexible scraper 63 is spirally arranged, and the side of the flexible scraper 63 close to the positioning frame 41 is inclined. The inner dimension of one end of the flexible scraper 63 close to the positioning frame 41 is larger than the inner dimension of the other end of the flexible scraper 63 .

[0120] In one feasible method, the flexible scraper 63 is arranged to fit the plastic tube, and after the flexible scraper 63 is squeezed by the plastic tube, it can be deformed, so that the flexible scraper 63 can stably contact the outer wall of the plastic tube. When the plastic tube is squeezed out, it can stably contact the outer wall of the flexible scraper 63, thereby scraping off water droplets on the outer wall of the plastic tube.

[0121] The flexible scraper 63 is arranged in a spiral shape so that the flexible scraper 63 can contact a wider range of plastic pipes.

[0122] like Figure 12-14 As shown, in one embodiment, the rotating assembly 6 further includes:

[0123] The mounting platform 65 is mounted on the outer sides of the positioning frame 41 and the connecting frame 61. A roller 66 is disposed on the inner side of the mounting frame. The middle part of the roller 66 is concave inwards and can contact the plastic pipe.

[0124] The transmission assembly 67 is installed on the inner side of the mounting platform 65 . The roller 66 and the rotating frame 62 are both in transmission connection with the transmission assembly 67 . The rotation of the roller 66 drives the rotating frame 62 to rotate through the transmission assembly 67 .

[0125] In one practicable manner, the movement of the roller 66 is used to drive the transmission assembly 67, and the transmission assembly 67 is used to drive the rotating frame 62 to rotate, so that the friction force can be used to drive the roller 66 to rotate during the plastic tube extrusion process, and the rotating frame 62 can rotate synchronously when the roller 66 rotates.

[0126] Optionally, the transmission assembly 67 is a crown gear, and teeth are arranged on the outer side of the rotating frame 62 to mesh with the crown gear for transmission, while a gear is arranged on the outer side of the roller 66 to mesh with the crown gear. During the rotation of the roller 66, the gear drives the crown gear to rotate, and the crown gear drives the rotating frame 62 to rotate.

[0127] The embodiment of the present invention further provides a molding method of an extrusion molding device, which is used for the above-mentioned extrusion molding device, and comprises the following steps:

[0128] Install the mold 3 according to the specifications of the plastic pipe to be produced, and connect the internal cooling system 5 to the extruder 2;

[0129] When the extruder 2 is working, the internal cooling system 5 sends cooling water into the plastic pipe to cool the inner wall of the plastic pipe;

[0130] The external cooling system 4 sprays cooling water onto the outside of the plastic pipe through a nozzle 44 to cool the outer wall of the plastic pipe;

[0131] The movement of the plastic pipe drives the rotating assembly 6 to rotate. During the rotation of the rotating assembly 6, the flexible scraper 63 contacts the plastic pipe to remove water drops on the outer wall of the plastic pipe.

[0132] In one embodiment, part of the internal cooling system 5 is removable, and after the part of the structure of the internal cooling system 5 is removed, the inner wall of the plastic pipe is cooled at the extrusion position of the mold.

[0133] Although the present invention is disclosed in conjunction with the above embodiments, it is not intended to limit the present invention. Anyone familiar with this technology can make various changes and modifications without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention. Therefore, the scope of protection of the present invention should be based on the definition of the attached claims.
