DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE EMBODIMENTS

[0023] Next, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described in conjunction with the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present utility model.

Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative efforts shall fall within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0024] Please refer to Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 5 , an injection molding machine mixing device, including a mounting frame 1, the inside of the mounting frame 1 is bolted with a main body 2, and a stirring assembly 3 is arranged inside the main body 2;

[0025] The stirring assembly 3 includes a motor 31, and a rotating rod 32 is installed at the output end of the motor 31 through a coupling. A servo motor 33 is installed in the bottom groove of the main body 2 through bolts, and a cam 34 is installed at the output end of the servo motor 33 through a coupling. A hollow tube 36 is inserted into the main body 2, and a lifting plate 35 is installed on the outer wall of the bottom end of the hollow tube 36 through bolts. An activity ring 37 is movably installed on the outer wall of the hollow tube 36 located inside the main body 2 through a bearing, and a plurality of moving plates 38 are movably installed on the outer wall of the activity ring 37 through rotating shafts at equal distances in a circular structure. Stirring plates 39 are movably installed on the outer walls of the moving plates 38 away from each other through rotating shafts, and springs 310 are fixedly connected to both sides of the top outer wall of the lifting plate 35. The mounting bracket 1 is used to support the device. When the motor 31 and the servo motor 33 are started, the motor 31 drives the rotating rod 32 to rotate, thereby providing power for the rotation of the stirring plates 39. When the servo motor 33 is started, the servo motor 33 drives the cam 34 to rotate, the cam 34 drives the lifting plate 35 to move, the lifting plate 35 drives the hollow tube 36 and the activity ring 37 to move, and during the movement of the activity ring 37, the moving plates 38 and the stirring plates 39 are driven to move. And the activity ring 37 movably connected to the hollow tube 36 enables the activity ring 37 to rotate on the outer wall of the hollow tube 36 by the action of the bearing.

[0026] Please refer to Figure 2 and Figure 5 , the motor 31 is fixedly installed at the center of the top outer wall of the main body 2 through bolts, and the rotating rod 32 extends into the main body 2. The rotating rod 32 is in sliding connection with the hollow tube 36. When the hollow tube 36 rises, the hollow tube 36 slides on the outer wall of the rotating rod 32, thereby providing assistance for the movement of the moving plates 38. A fixing ring 4 is installed at the top end of the outer wall of the rotating rod 32 located inside the main body 2 through bolts, and a plurality of connecting plates 5 are installed on the outer wall of the fixing ring 4 through bolts at equal distances in a circular structure. The other end of the connecting plate 5 away from the rotating rod 32 is movably connected to the stirring plate 39 through a rotating shaft. When the rotating rod 32 rotates, the rotating rod 32 drives the fixing ring 4 to rotate. The fixing ring 4 uses its connection with the connecting plate 5 to make the connecting plate 5 drive the stirring plate 39 to rotate, and due to the movable connection between the activity ring 37 and the hollow tube 36, the rotation of the stirring plate 39 is more effective.

[0027] Please refer to Figure 3 and Figure 4A conveying assembly 6 is installed on one side of the top outer wall of the main body 2 by bolts, and the conveying assembly 6 includes a feeding seat 61, the feeding seat 61 is connected with the main body 2, the feeding seat 61 is set to provide a feeding position for the feeding of raw materials, and the mutual communication between the feeding seat 61 and the main body 2 allows the raw materials to enter the interior of the main body 2; a rotating groove 62 is opened inside the feeding seat 61, and a rotating drum 63 is movably installed inside the rotating groove 62 through a bearing. When the rotating drum 63 rotates, the rotating drum 63 will use the bearing to rotate inside the rotating groove 62; a stepping motor 64 is installed on one side of the outer wall of the feeding seat 61 by bolts, and the stepping motor 64 is connected to the main body 2 through a coupling. The rotating drum 63 is in transmission connection. When the stepper motor 64 is started, the stepper motor 64 will utilize the transmission connection with the rotating drum 63 to rotate the rotating drum 63; scrapers 66 distributed in an annular structure at equal distances are provided on the outer wall of the rotating drum 63, and the scrapers 66 are in contact with the inner wall of the rotating groove 62. The outer wall of the rotating drum 63 located between the scrapers 66 is provided with material troughs 65 distributed in an annular structure at equal distances. During the rotation of the rotating drum 63, the scrapers 66 will be driven to rotate. The scrapers 66 utilize the contact with the rotating groove 62 so that the scrapers 66 can scrape off the residue on the inner wall of the rotating groove 62, and the opening of the material trough 65 makes the feeding of raw materials more perfect.

[0028] Working principle: First, the external pipe is connected to the discharge port of the device and the discharge port is blocked. Then, the raw materials are injected into the inside of the feeding seat 61. During the continuous injection process, the raw materials will enter the inside of the material trough 65. At this time, the stepper motor 64 is started. The stepper motor 64 drives the rotating drum 63 to rotate inside the rotating trough 62 by the action of the coupling. During the rotation of the rotating drum 63, the rotating drum 63 drives the material trough 65 to rotate, so that the raw materials can fall into the inside of the main body 2. During the rotation of the rotating drum 62, the scraper 66 is driven to rotate. The scraper 66 cleans the inner wall of the rotating trough 62 by fitting with the rotating trough 62.

[0029] When the user wants to stir the raw materials, the motor 31 and the servo motor 33 can be started separately. The servo motor 33 can drive the cam 34 to rotate by means of its output end and the coupling. During the rotation of the cam 34, the lifting plate 35 will be pushed up. The lifting plate 35 will drive the hollow tube 36 to rise. During the rising process of the lifting plate 35, the spring 310 will also be compressed. When the hollow tube 36 rises, it will drive the movable ring 37 to rise. The movable ring 37, by virtue of its movable connection with the moving plate 38, enables the moving plate 38 to move. During the movement of the moving plate 38, the stirring plate 39, by virtue of its movable connection with the moving plate 38 and the connecting plate 5, can move inwards. During the rotation of the motor 31, the motor 31 will drive the rotating rod 32 to rotate, and the rotating rod 32 will drive the connecting plate 5 on its outer wall to move. The connecting plate 5 can drive the stirring plate 39, the moving plate 38 and the movable ring 37 to rotate. When the cam 34 rotates half a turn, the spring 310 will drive the lifting plate 35 to descend by means of its acting force, and drive the hollow tube 36 and the parts on its outer wall to move. The above is the working process of the entire device, and the content not described in detail in this specification belongs to the prior art well-known to those skilled in the art.

[0030] Although the embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, those of ordinary skill in the art can understand that various changes, modifications, substitutions and variations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principle and spirit of the present invention. The scope of the present invention is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
