Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of vacuum forming machine equipment, in particular to a plastic heat insulation structure of a vacuum forming machine. Background Art

[0002] In the field of plastic processing, vacuum forming machine is a key equipment widely used in the manufacture of various plastic products. It realizes the three-dimensional shape of the product through the steps of heating, softening and vacuum adsorption forming of thermoplastic plastic sheets.

[0003] When the existing vacuum forming machine is in use, the plastic sheet is pressed by the pressing structure and then heated and softened by the heating component. The vacuum equipment is further evacuated to make the plastic material fit the mold. Since the plastic material is softened by the heating component, the pressed position is prone to stretching, thinning, or whitening during molding, resulting in waste of plastic material and increased production costs. Therefore, a plastic heat insulation structure of a vacuum forming machine is proposed to solve this problem. Utility Model Content

[0004] In view of this, the utility model provides a plastic heat insulation structure for a vacuum forming machine, which can cool down the plastic material in the incoming direction through the cooling block that moves up and down in cooperation with the U-shaped pad, thereby preventing the plastic material from being softened, stretched, thinned, and having white edges in this area when being heated.

[0005] In order to solve the above technical problems, the utility model provides a plastic insulation structure of a vacuum forming machine, including a U-shaped base, a clamping structure movably arranged above the U-shaped base, and a U-shaped pad matching the U-shaped base. The clamping structure includes a cooling block movably arranged up and down corresponding to the U-shaped pad, and a pressing frame is connected to the lower part of the cooling block, and the distance from the bottom of the cooling block to the bottom of the pressing frame is equal to the distance from the upper base surface of the U-shaped pad to the upper base surface of the U-shaped base.

[0006] The cooling block comprises a main body, a material pressing frame is connected to the lower part of the main body, a first cooling circulation pipeline is embedded in the main body, and connecting blocks are arranged on the base surfaces on both sides of the main body.

[0007] A guide rod is fixedly provided on the U-shaped base, a guide sliding hole matching the guide rod is provided on the connecting block, a tension spring is sleeved on the outer periphery of the guide rod between the U-shaped base and the connecting block, and a limiting protrusion is fixedly provided on the upper end surface of the guide rod.

[0008] A second cooling circulation pipeline is embedded in the U-shaped cushion block.

[0009] A thickened cushion block is also arranged on the upper base surface of the pressing frame away from the main body, and the upper base surface of the thickened cushion block is arranged flush with the upper base surface of the main body.

[0010] The main body and the U-shaped pad are both made of copper.

[0011] The beneficial effects of the above technical solution of the utility model are as follows:

[0012] 1. The cooling block that moves up and down cooperates with the U-shaped pad to cool down the plastic material in the incoming direction, thereby preventing the plastic material from being softened, stretched, thinned, and having white edges in this area when being heated.

[0013] 2. The first cooling circulation pipeline and the second cooling circulation pipeline are both connected to the external cooling circulation equipment, and the U-shaped base is fixed to the processing station of the vacuum forming machine. The plastic material further passes through the gap between the cooling block and the U-shaped pad, that is, from one end of the cooling block to the other end. The lifting and lowering heating structure is set corresponding to the U-shaped pad. When it presses down to heat the plastic material, its frame first contacts with the main body of the cooling block and the thickened pad, so that the main body and the pressing frame are pressed down, thereby pressing the plastic material, and then the vacuum equipment is started to vacuum, so that the plastic material and the mold are fitted together for forming.

[0014] 3. The main body of the cooling block and the U-shaped pad are both made of copper, which has good thermal conductivity. The heat can be taken away by the first cooling circulation pipeline and the second cooling circulation pipeline, thereby preventing the plastic material in this area from being stretched and thinned due to heat and causing white edges.

[0015] 4. The upper base surface of the thickened pad is flush with the upper base surface of the main body, so that when the force is pressed downward, the lower pressing frame can be evenly stressed, so that the plastic material has better sealing performance. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
