Technical Field

[0002] Hydrogen, as a clean energy source, is considered an important component of the future energy system. In recent years, with the development of hydrogen fuel cell vehicles, hydrogen storage cylinders have played a crucial role as the core power supply unit for these vehicles. Type IV compressed hydrogen cylinders, with their high hydrogen storage density and volumetric weight ratio, have become an important type of hydrogen storage cylinder under research and development. Type IV cylinders use a plastic inner liner as the hydrogen storage space, combined with an externally wound carbon fiber layer to achieve high-pressure hydrogen storage and transportation. The plastic inner liner consists of a metal valve seat and a plastic container, and its sealing structure plays a decisive role in the cylinder's storage and transportation process. Currently, the most common sealing structure for plastic inner liners is the combination of O-rings and retaining rings to form a seal between the metal valve seat and the inner plastic liner. However, this sealing structure is prone to retaining ring overflow during actual installation, causing seal failure. To solve this sealing failure problem, plastic inner liners can adopt an integrated insert sealing structure. This structure utilizes the metal valve seat and plastic to form a U-shaped seal, fundamentally avoiding the use of O-rings and retaining rings, effectively preventing seal failure, and also reducing processing steps, labor, and production costs. However, the integrated sealing structure of the insert has the problem of difficulty in positioning and centering the metal valve seat of the insert during the inner liner molding process, which seriously affects the injection molding of the plastic inner liner and has a huge impact on the production of the plastic inner liner.

[0059] Cut off and remove the material head along the arched junction of the fixed molded end cap 1 and the plastic inner liner body 9;
[0060] Using an Allen wrench connected to the Allen groove 24 on the centering guide module 2, the fixed molded end cap 1 and the centering guide module 2 are unscrewed counterclockwise as a whole, leaving the insert metal valve seat 5 at the opening of the plastic inner liner body 9, thus completing the insert sealing integrated injection molding auxiliary molding.

The molten resin fills the second cavity and is injection molded to form the plastic inner liner body. After the plastic inner liner body has completely cooled down, control the fixed mold and the moving mold to open, remove the plastic inner liner and remove the sprue; Separate the fixed end cap and the centering guide module from the insert metal valve seat to complete the integrated injection molding of the insert seal.
