[0030] The following will be combined with the drawings in the specification of the utility model to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the utility model, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the utility model, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the utility model.

[0031] Reference Figure 3 The utility model provides an embodiment: a vacuum filling device for an injection molding machine, comprising a drying box 1, a first fixed plate 2 is fixedly connected to the inner top of the drying box 1, a first slider 3 is slidably connected inside the first fixed plate 2, a second fixed plate 4 is fixedly connected to the left side of the drying box 1, a second slider 5 is slidably connected inside the second fixed plate 4, a filter plate 6 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the first slider 3, and one side of the filter plate 6 is fixedly connected to one side of the second slider 5, and a handle 7 is fixedly connected to the middle of the front side of the filter plate 6.

[0032] When in use, the air compressor 14 is first driven to suck in and compress the air inside the drying box 1 through the ventilation pipe 15, thereby increasing the pressure difference inside the drying box 1, so that the plastic particles inside the storage box 8 are sucked into the feed pipe 9, and then enter the discharge pipe 13 through the spiral blades 12 inside the storage barrel 10, and finally enter the drying box 1, and then the vacuum pump 16 is driven to keep the inside of the drying box 1 in a vacuum state. The vacuum sensor 17 inside the drying box 1 will monitor the pressure inside the drying box 1 in real time. When the pressure inside the drying box 1 is too high, the vacuum pump 16 will automatically stop driving.

[0033] Reference Figure 1 , Figure 4 , a storage box 8 is provided on the right side of the outside of the drying box 1, and a feed pipe 9 is fixedly connected to the top of the storage box 8. A storage barrel 10 is fixedly connected to the top of the feed pipe 9, and a fixed rod 11 is fixedly connected to the inner top of the storage barrel 10, and a spiral blade 12 is fixedly connected to the outer side of the fixed rod 11. A discharge pipe 13 is fixedly connected to the outer side of the storage barrel 10, and one end of the discharge pipe 13 is fixedly connected to the front side of the top side of the drying box 1. Through the storage box 8, plastic particles can be stored in the storage box 8, so that automatic feeding can be achieved. Through the feed pipe 9, plastic particles can enter the storage barrel 10 from the storage box 8 through the feed pipe 9. Through the storage barrel 10, plastic particles can be evenly transmitted to the inside of the drying box 1 to avoid blockage of plastic particles in the discharge pipe 13. Through the discharge pipe 13, plastic particles can enter the drying box 1 through the discharge pipe 13.

[0034] Reference Figure 2 The top right side of the drying box 1 is fixedly connected with an air compressor 14, the output end of the air compressor 14 is fixedly connected with a ventilation pipe 15, and one end of the ventilation pipe 15 is fixedly connected to the rear side of the top side of the drying box 1. Through the air compressor 14 and the ventilation pipe 15, the air inside the drying box 1 can be sucked in and compressed, increasing the pressure difference inside the drying box 1, thereby realizing automatic loading.

[0035] Reference Figure 3 A vacuum pump 16 is fixedly connected to the left side of the top of the drying box 1, and a vacuum sensor 17 is fixedly connected to the right side of the top of the inner side of the drying box 1. The vacuum pump 16 and the vacuum sensor 17 are electrically connected. The vacuum pump 16 can keep the drying box 1 in a vacuum state, and the pressure inside the drying box 1 can be monitored in real time through the vacuum sensor 17. The vacuum sensor 17 is electrically connected to the vacuum pump 16, so that when the pressure inside the drying box 1 is too high, the vacuum pump 16 can be automatically stopped.

[0036] Reference Figure 1 , Figure 2The front side of the drying box 1 is rotatably connected with a switch door 18, and the outer side of the switch door 18 is fixedly connected with a handle 19. By opening the switch door 18, the filter plate 6 inside the drying box 1 can be disassembled, and the switch door 18 can be opened more conveniently through the handle 19.

[0037] Working principle: When in use, first pull the handle 19 to open the switch door 18, then slide the first slider 3 and the second slider 5 to connect to the inside of the first fixed plate 2 and the second fixed plate 4 respectively, so as to fix the filter plate 6 to prevent the fixed plate from falling, then close the switch door 18, drive the air compressor 14, and suck and compress the air inside the drying box 1 through the ventilation pipe 15, thereby increasing the pressure difference inside the drying box 1. The pressure difference inside the drying box 1 will suck the plastic particles inside the storage box 8 into the feed pipe 9, and then the plastic particles enter the storage barrel 10, pass through the spiral blades 12 and then enter the discharge pipe 13, and finally enter the inside of the drying box 1 from the discharge pipe 13. The drying box 1 dries the plastic particles, and then Then drive the vacuum pump 16 to keep the inside of the drying box 1 in a vacuum state. When in a vacuum state, the weight of the plastic particles will become lighter. When the vacuum pump 16 is driven, the plastic particles with lighter weight will move with the airflow, and the moving plastic particles will be blocked by the filter plate 6 to prevent the plastic particles from entering the inside of the vacuum pump 16, causing the vacuum pump 16 to be blocked and affecting the use. The vacuum sensor 17 inside the drying box 1 will monitor the pressure inside the drying box 1 in real time. When the pressure inside the drying box 1 is too high, the vacuum pump 16 will be automatically stopped. When use is completed, the filter plate 6 needs to be disassembled. Just open the switch door 18, and then pull the handle 7 to pull out the filter plate 6 and the first slider 3 and the second slider 5.
