DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0019] See also Figure 1-4 , an open hot runner flow guide shuttle, comprising a shuttle structure 1, the internal thread of the shuttle structure 1 is installed with a heating mechanism 3, the top of the shuttle structure 1 is threadedly connected with a feeding structure 2, the shuttle structure 1 comprises a flow guide shuttle body 101, the internal thread of the flow guide shuttle body 101 is connected with a mounting block 301, a core rod 302 is fixedly installed at the bottom of the mounting block 301, a heating wire 303 is fixedly installed at the bottom of the mounting block 301, the heating wire 303 is sleeved and installed on the surface of the core rod 302, the gap between the flow guide shuttle body 101 and the core rod 302 is filled with magnesium oxide powder 304, a quick connection hole 305 is fixedly installed at the top of the mounting block 301, and a temperature sensor 306 is fixedly installed at the bottom of the flow guide shuttle body 101;

[0020] During use, the guide shuttle body 101 is heated by the heating wire 303, and the position of the core rod 302 is supported and fixed by the core rod 302 to prevent the core rod 302 from deforming under high-temperature working conditions, thereby ensuring the normal and stable operation of the heating mechanism 3. The gap between the heating wire 303 and the guide shuttle body 101 is filled with magnesium oxide powder 304 to ensure insulation between the heating wire 303 and the guide shuttle body 101, and the heat generated by the heating wire 303 can be quickly transferred to the inner wall of the guide shuttle body 101, and further transferred to the heated medium. At the same time, the heating mechanism 3 is conveniently connected to the external control terminal through the quick connection hole 305, and the melt temperature is detected by the temperature sensor 306, and the temperature of the heating mechanism 3 is adjusted through the external control terminal connected to the quick connection hole 305. The integrated heating structure has the advantage of keeping the plastic in a molten state, thereby solving the problem that the plastic is easily cooled and solidified in the flow channel, resulting in obstruction of the melt flow, even blocking the flow channel, and affecting the normal injection molding process.

[0021] Furthermore, the feed structure 2 includes a feed shell 201, a quick connector 202 is fixedly installed on one side of the feed shell 201, and three groups of discharge holes 204 are opened at the bottom of the feed shell 201, and the discharge holes 204 are fixedly connected to the top of the guide hole 102;

[0022] During use, the device is conveniently connected to the feed end through the quick connector 202 , and the molten material passes through the inside of the feed shell 201 and then is uniformly input into the inside of the guide hole 102 through the discharge hole 204 .

[0023] Furthermore, the outer wall of the guide shuttle body 101 is provided with three groups of guide holes 102, the cross section of the guide holes 102 is fan-shaped, and the three groups of guide holes 102 are evenly distributed axially with the axis of the mounting block 301 as the center;

[0024] During use, the fan-shaped guide holes 102 can provide a relatively gentle flow rate change. Compared with the flow channel design with right-angle turns or sharp contractions, it can reduce the shear stress of the melt during the flow process, thereby reducing possible molecular chain breakage and internal stress of the product. The spiral guide holes 102 can slow down the flow rate of the fluid by increasing the stroke length of the fluid, so that it can remain in a molten state in the groove for more time, which helps to improve the filling effect and product quality. The three groups of guide holes 102 can reasonably distribute the flow rate of the molten plastic according to the number and layout, ensuring the filling speed and pressure balance of each cavity, thereby improving the dimensional accuracy and appearance consistency of the product.

[0025] Furthermore, a discharge end 103 is fixedly installed at the bottom of the guide shuttle body 101, and a threaded connector 104 is fixedly installed at the top of the guide shuttle body 101;

[0026] During use, the threaded connector 104 facilitates installation and disassembly of the feeding structure 2 and the heating mechanism 3, and is convenient for workers to perform maintenance and cleaning of the components.

[0027] Further, the core rod 302 is made of magnesium oxide;

[0028] During use, the core rod 302 made of magnesium oxide ensures the insulation of the core rod 302 and acts as a good thermal conductive medium to help heat transfer effectively.

[0029] Furthermore, a connecting thread 203 is provided at the bottom of the feed shell 201, and a sealing ring 205 is fixedly installed at the bottom of the feed shell 201;

[0030] During use, the device and the hot runner are conveniently connected to each other through the connecting thread 203, making the device easy to assemble, and the gap between the feed shell 201 and the hot runner is sealed by the sealing ring 205 to ensure that the guide shuttle is tightly connected to the hot nozzle, the diverter plate or other parts of the mold to prevent melt leakage and external impurities from intruding.

[0031] Furthermore, the guide shuttle body 101 is made of nickel-based alloy, and the body of the discharge end 103 is conical;

[0032] The guide shuttle body 101 is made of nickel-based alloy, which ensures that the guide shuttle body 101 can maintain good strength, creep resistance and corrosion resistance at high temperatures during use, and is suitable for hot runner systems under extreme temperatures and harsh environments. The conical shuttle body structure 1 can gradually reduce the cross-sectional area of ​​the flow channel during use, so that the resistance encountered by the melt during the flow process is gradually reduced, which is conducive to the smooth flow of the melt and avoids flow stagnation or excessive shear stress caused by sudden narrowing.

[0033] The above are only preferred embodiments of the present invention and are not intended to limit the present invention. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions and improvements made within the spirit and principles of the present invention should be included in the protection scope of the present invention.
