Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of feeding devices, in particular to an injection molding raw material vacuum suction feeding system and a control method. Background Art
[0002] With the continuous advancement of industrial automation technology, the injection molding industry has higher and higher requirements for raw material handling systems. Especially in a high-precision, high-efficiency production environment, how to ensure the uniform supply, precise control and efficient drying of raw materials has become an important factor in improving production efficiency and reducing costs. As a key link in injection molding, the traditional feeding method often relies on manual or simple mechanical transmission devices, which cannot achieve precise control of raw material flow and efficient grading. Therefore, with the increasing demand for high efficiency, automation and precise control, the feeding system is gradually developing in the direction of intelligence and precision, and integrated, modular and automated feeding systems are gradually becoming a trend.
[0003] Currently in the feeding system, the screening, drying and suction mechanisms are usually set up separately and have relatively simple functions. The screening system generally uses a single vibrating screening plate to sort the raw materials, but due to the unstable screening effect and uneven particle distribution, it often leads to low efficiency in subsequent links. Traditional suction systems also mostly rely on mechanical arms or simple suction devices to work, and cannot accurately control the flow rate and spacing during the suction process, thus affecting the amount and stability of raw materials. In addition, the drying mechanism generally uses a simple hot air drying method, but due to the uneven temperature and humidity during the drying process, it often leads to poor drying effect of the raw materials, which in turn affects the final injection molding quality.
[0004] With regard to the above technology, firstly, the traditional suction system is often unable to accurately control the distance and suction speed between the suction gun and the hopper, which is prone to uneven raw material suction or blockage, and cannot achieve seamless connection between particle screening and the suction process, resulting in low system efficiency. Secondly, the traditional cleaning function is insufficiently designed, resulting in raw material residue and equipment pollution, which in turn affects the continuity and stability of production. Finally, there is a lack of drying treatment for the material. Therefore, technical personnel in this field provide an injection molding raw material vacuum suction feeding system and control method to solve the problems raised in the above background. Summary of the invention
[0005] The object of the present invention is to provide a vacuum suction feeding system and a control method for injection molding raw materials to solve the problems raised in the prior art.
[0006] To achieve the above object, the present invention provides the following technical solutions: The feeding system includes a screening mechanism, a suction mechanism, a drying mechanism, a hopper and a self-cleaning mechanism. The suction mechanism is used to suck the injection molding raw materials in the hopper. The screening mechanism is connected to the suction mechanism, the drying mechanism is connected to the screening mechanism, and the self-cleaning mechanism is tightly connected to the screening mechanism. The hopper is barrel-shaped, and a gathering plate is provided on the hopper. The gathering plate is truncated. A first vibrator is installed on the gathering plate, and the first vibrator is arranged circumferentially around the gathering plate. The first vibrator is used to make the injection molding raw materials in the hopper level on the upper end surface and evenly arranged inside.
[0007] By adopting the above technical solutions, the core function of the feeding system is to ensure the uniform supply of injection molding raw materials and improve production efficiency through screening, suction, drying and other links. As the raw material storage part, the hopper adopts a barrel-type structure and can accommodate a large amount of injection molding raw materials. A gathering plate is installed on the top of the hopper. The gathering plate is truncated cone-shaped and its design can guide the raw materials to concentrate in the central position to prevent uneven distribution of the raw materials in the hopper. A first vibrator is provided on the gathering plate, which is arranged along the circumference of the gathering plate. Through the vibration, the injection molding raw materials are evenly arranged in the hopper, and the fluidity of the raw materials is ensured to avoid the accumulation or uneven distribution of raw materials.
[0008] Furthermore, the screening mechanism includes a screening plate, a screening box, a cyclone separator, a screening motor, a transmission belt, a second vibrator, a rotating rod and an auxiliary unloading assembly. The screening box is connected to the suction mechanism, the screening box is connected to the cyclone separator, the cyclone separator is connected to the drying mechanism, and the screening motor is connected to the rotating rod, the rotating rod is connected to the transmission belt, the rotating rod is connected to the auxiliary unloading assembly, the second vibrator is fastened to the screening plate, and the transmission belt is in an eight-shaped shape.
[0009] By adopting the above technical solution, the screen plate is placed obliquely in the screen box, and the screen holes are gradually reduced from top to bottom to ensure that the injection molding materials of different particles are separated layer by layer in order of size. The screen plate is provided with an inner flow surface. When the injection molding raw materials flow through, the inclined surface design of the inner flow surface effectively controls the flow of particles to prevent the mixing of over-large or under-sized particles. The screen box is the main container of the entire screening mechanism, which is equipped with screen plates, cyclone separators and other components to carry the flow and classification functions of the raw materials. By connecting with the suction mechanism, the flow of raw materials in the screening box is controlled and orderly. The cyclone separator uses the vortex effect of air flow to separate smaller particles from large particles, ensuring that particles of different sizes are subsequently dried and stored. The screening motor drives the rotating rod, which drives the screening plate to rotate through the transmission belt to control the flow size, enhance the efficiency of materials passing through the screening holes, and make the screening effect more precise. The transmission belt is arranged in an eight-shaped shape. The second vibrator provides the necessary vibration effect through a fast connection with the screening plate to ensure that the raw materials on the screening plate are fully screened, and the vibration method can effectively improve the screening efficiency of the raw materials. The rotating rod is connected to the screening motor and the transmission belt. The function of the rotating rod is to drive the vibration of the screening plate to make the screening effect more efficient. The auxiliary unloading component is mainly connected to the rotating rod through transmission to adjust the material flow rate to ensure that the screened material can smoothly enter the next processing link.
[0010] Furthermore, the screening mechanism also includes a screening plate, a connecting pipe, a first reflux pipe and a second reflux pipe.

[0011] By adopting the above technical solution, the main function of the screening mechanism is to classify the particle size of the injection molding raw materials through a series of screening, reflow and separation processes. The screening plate is placed in the screening box at an angle to ensure that the material can slide smoothly when passing through the screening plate. The screening plate is provided with a series of screening holes of gradually decreasing size, which are gradually reduced from top to bottom, effectively separating the raw materials of different particle sizes. The design of the screening plate also provides an inner flow surface, which is an inclined surface, further optimizes the material flow process, avoids the stagnation of the material during the screening process, and thus improves the screening efficiency. During the screening process, the material will flow along the flow point of the screening plate. The function of the flow point is to further control the classification of the injection molding raw materials by adjusting the relationship between the flow rate and the particle size. Through these designs, the screening mechanism can accurately separate materials of different particle sizes according to the particle size of the injection molding raw materials. The screening box is connected to the connecting pipe to ensure that the screened materials can quickly flow into the cyclone separator for further processing. The connecting pipe is a gourd-shaped structure, which connects the screening box and the cyclone separator to ensure smooth flow of materials. The sieve plate is located at the bottom of the cyclone separator, which further ensures the flow direction and flow rate of the materials.

The gathering component is composed of a gathering block, a gathering motor, a fixed plate, a rotating plate, etc., which is responsible for concentrating the injection molding raw materials to the entrance of the suction gun. The gathering motor drives the rotation of the fixed plate to gather the raw materials and make them enter the suction gun in a concentrated manner.

The rotating plate drives the gathering block to rotate by rotating to achieve the function of gathering the injection molding raw materials. In the gathering component, the sliding block is connected to the fixed plate by sliding. During the gathering process, the sliding block can slide up and down in the fixed plate to adjust the distance between the gathering block and the suction gun, further improving the gathering efficiency.
