Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of screw barrels, and in particular relates to a screw barrel of a polyurethane injection molding machine. Background Art

[0002] Reciprocating screw injection molding machines are widely used in injection molding machines. The components of reciprocating screw injection molding machines that plasticize polyurethane are the screw and the feed barrel. The polyurethane melt entering the feed barrel is heated and softened by the feed barrel. Due to the rotation of the screw, the softened polyurethane melt is continuously fed to the nozzle for plasticization and molding.

[0003] However, since the polyurethane melt is heated by the feed barrel alone, shear and friction occur in the polyurethane melt when the screw rotates, which causes greater stress on the screw, affecting the working efficiency to a certain extent, thereby affecting the mixing effect of the polyurethane melt and causing the temperature in the melt to be uneven. Summary of the invention

[0004] In order to solve the above-mentioned problems, the utility model discloses a screw barrel of a polyurethane injection molding machine. A graphene nano-heating element is added inside the screw. While the screw rotates, the polyurethane melt is heated and softened. While the polyurethane melt has axial movement, lateral flow and swirling motion, the stress on the screw is reduced. These different forms of movement and work greatly promote the mixing effect of the polyurethane melt, so that the temperature inside the polyurethane melt reaches a high uniformity.

[0005] In order to achieve the above purpose, the specific technical solution of this application is as follows:

[0006] A screw barrel of a polyurethane injection molding machine comprises a feed hopper, a delivery barrel and a control panel, wherein a screw is arranged in the delivery barrel, a nozzle is arranged at the front end of the delivery barrel, graphene nano heating elements are arranged inside the delivery barrel and inside the screw, the screw is driven to rotate by a driving motor, and a support seat is arranged below the delivery barrel.

[0007] Based on the above technical features, further, spiral feeding pieces are provided at equal intervals on the periphery of the screw, and the screw and the feeding pieces are both made of stainless steel.

[0008] Based on the above technical features, preferably, the nozzle is threadedly connected to the feed barrel, and the nozzle can be replaced with different calibers, which has better flexibility.

[0009] Based on the above technical features, preferably, a graphene nano heating element is also provided inside the nozzle to facilitate rapid discharge of the polyurethane material.

[0010] Based on the above technical features, preferably, the feed hopper is welded and fixed above the rear end of the feeding barrel.

[0011] Based on the above technical features, preferably, the feed tube is wrapped with a thermal insulation layer.

[0012] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this application are:

[0013] The present application discloses a screw barrel of a polyurethane injection molding machine, wherein a graphene nano-heating element is added inside the screw, and while the screw rotates, the polyurethane melt is heated and softened, and while the polyurethane melt has axial movement, lateral flow and gyratory motion, the stress on the screw is reduced, and these different forms of motion and work greatly promote the mixing effect of the polyurethane melt, so that the temperature inside the polyurethane melt reaches a high uniformity.
