Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of injection molds, in particular to a heat insulation structure between a mold and a hot runner nozzle. Background Art

[0002] Injection molds are tools used to produce plastic products by injection molding. They are usually used to mass produce certain parts with complex shapes, and they play a role in giving plastic products a complete structure and precise dimensions. In the actual production process, the heated and melted plastic is usually injected into the mold cavity of the injection mold by the injection molding machine under high pressure. After cooling and solidification, the molded product is ejected. During the injection molding process, if the temperature at the hot nozzle of the hot runner of the injection mold is too low, the plastic at the hot nozzle will not reach the optimal melting state and the fluidity will deteriorate, which will lead to unstable injection of molten plastic material, cold material, and unbalanced multi-cavity discharging. Therefore, the temperature of the hot nozzle needs to be controlled.

[0003] The existing insulation method is mainly to heat through a heating wire wrapped around the hot runner flow channel, but the heating wire cannot directly act on the hot nozzle, which causes the temperature of the hot runner part above the hot nozzle to be relatively high. The hot nozzle itself has insufficient temperature due to heat loss caused by contact with the mold, affecting the stability of production and the performance of the finished product. Utility Model Content

[0004] Based on this, the purpose of the utility model is to provide a heat insulation structure between a mold and a hot runner nozzle in view of the deficiencies in the prior art.

[0005] In order to achieve the above purpose, the utility model adopts the following technical solutions:

[0006] A heat insulation structure between a mold and a hot runner nozzle, comprising a nozzle and a mold, wherein a material flow channel is arranged inside the nozzle, and wherein the mold is provided with a front mold core at the end portion combined with the nozzle, wherein a heat insulation groove is arranged inside the front mold core, wherein the heat insulation groove is an annular structure, and the end portion of the nozzle is in contact with a plastic product.

[0007] As a further improvement of the utility model, the heat-insulating groove includes a heat-insulating inner groove and a heat-insulating wall.

[0008] As a further improvement of the utility model, an R angle is provided at the bottom of the heat-insulating inner groove.

[0009] As a further improvement of the present invention, the width of the heat-insulating inner groove is 1.5-2.5 mm.

[0010] As a further improvement of the present invention, the depth of the heat-insulating inner groove is greater than or equal to 2 mm.

[0011] As a further improvement of the utility model, the bottom surface of the heat-insulating inner groove is 0.2-1 mm deeper than the effective contact surface between the hot nozzle and the front mold core.

[0012] As a further improvement of the present invention, the thickness of the heat insulation wall is set to 2-3 mm.

[0013] The beneficial effects of the utility model are:

[0014] 1. The utility model provides a heat insulation structure between a mold and a hot runner hot nozzle. By adding an annular heat insulation groove on the outer side of the hot nozzle and the mold seal, the heat insulation groove is used as the air of the poor conductor to prevent the heat exchange inside and outside the heat insulation groove, thereby achieving the effect of heat insulation and heat preservation of the hot nozzle structure, and effectively avoiding the phenomenon of cold material, material flower, unstable size, and glue inlet blockage caused by heat loss of the hot nozzle. The utility model has a novel structure, simple and feasible processing, stable injection molding process, and ensures the qualified rate of finished product quality.

[0015] 2. The heat insulation groove structure of the utility model is arranged on the front mold core. Compared with the previous heat insulation structure, the structure is simpler, more effective and easier to process, and can be used in the positions where the structures such as cooling water jacket and heat insulation water jacket are difficult to place.

[0016] 3. The heat-insulating groove structure of the utility model includes a heat-insulating inner groove and a heat-insulating wall. The bottom of the heat-insulating inner groove is provided with an R angle, which can eliminate sharp corners, avoid stress concentration, and increase mold strength.

[0017] 4. The depth of the heat insulation groove in the utility model is greater than or equal to 2 mm, and the heat insulation bottom surface is 0.2-1 mm deeper than the effective contact surface between the hot nozzle and the front mold core, ensuring the heat insulation effect of the hot nozzle.

[0018] 5. The width of the heat insulation groove in the utility model is 1.5-2.5mm, and the depth of the heat insulation wall is 2-3mm, which ensures the sealing between the mold and the hot nozzle and the heat insulation effect on the hot nozzle. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
