Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to an injection mould, in particular to a continuous injection mould and a continuous working method thereof. Background Art

[0002] An injection mold is a tool used for mass production of plastic products with complex shapes. It consists of a movable mold and a fixed mold. The molten plastic is injected under high pressure by an injection molding machine, and a molded product is obtained after cooling and solidification. The traditional plastic injection molding method is mainly to melt the granular raw material and then inject it into the mold cavity, and then cool the mold core. After the mold core is cooled, the mold is opened and demolded to remove the mold core. However, in actual operation, after each injection molding, in order to prevent leakage, the nozzle of the injection molding tube is always against the injection port and waits for the mold core to cool and demold before injecting the raw material into the mold cavity again. This method not only has low injection efficiency, but also the residual raw material at the nozzle of the nozzle will gradually cool down while waiting for the mold core to cool, which is easy to block the nozzle. Especially for some molds with complex structures, the cooling time required is longer, which is not only more likely to block the nozzle, but the infusion mechanism must also keep the raw material in a molten state at all times while waiting for cooling, thereby wasting a lot of energy.

[0003] In order to solve the above technical problems, a turntable distribution structure as shown in a patent for a continuously working injection molding device (Announcement No. CN205467013U) is produced, so as to save the waiting time for cooling and achieve the purpose of continuous production. However, new problems will arise in this type of production. For example, when the injection molding nozzle is transitioning, since the general injection molding nozzles are vertically distributed, after each injection molding is completed, dripping often occurs when the turntable is rotated, resulting in a poor injection molding environment.

[0004] Moreover, at the beginning stage of injection molding, the injection mold is still in a low temperature state, which may cause the flow resistance of the plastic melt to increase, the flow rate to slow down, and even solidify during mold filling when the plastic melt is not fully injected during the next injection molding process, thereby hindering subsequent feeding and causing defects such as material shortage, dents, and weld seams in the plastic parts. Summary of the invention

[0005] In order to solve the above technical problems, the purpose of the present invention is to provide a continuous injection mold and a continuous working method thereof. By designing the turntable group as a combination of a turntable cover plate, a cooling liquid chamber and a circulating liquid chamber, and through the reasonable layout and connection of the connecting pipelines, not only the injection cooling effect can be achieved, but also the preheating function can be added. On the basis of adapting to continuous production, the risk of initial solidification of the melt injection can be further avoided, and better heat recovery can be achieved.

[0006] The present invention provides the following technical solutions:
