[0002] Generally, injection molds usually select two injection methods of cold runner injection and hot runner injection according to the requirements of products and the fluidity of materials. Whether it is cold runner injection or hot runner injection, each has its own characteristic structure.

[0003] Cold runner injection includes a cold runner plate A fixed on the upper template, a common hot plate B fixed to the cold runner plate, and a nozzle assembly. A cold gate C matching the nozzle assembly is installed in the cold runner plate, and the mold plate is fixed to the cold runner hot plate through the common hot plate;

[0004] Hot runner injection includes a hot runner hot plate D fixed on the upper template, a nozzle assembly, and a hot gate E matching the nozzle assembly is installed in the hot runner hot plate, and the mold plate is fixed to the hot runner hot plate.

[0005] In the above structure, if we want to change the structure of hot runner injection to that of cold runner injection, we need to remove the hot runner hot plate and related accessories, and then replace them with a cold runner plate and a common hot plate; conversely, we need to remove the cold runner plate, the common hot plate and related accessories, and then replace them with the hot runner hot plate and related accessories. In the above, whether it is a cold runner plate or a hot runner hot plate, its weight is very heavy, and the disassembly and installation are both time-consuming and laborious.

[0006] Therefore, the applicant has designed a gate nozzle for the interchange of cold runner and hot runner of a rubber injection machine, which minimizes the disassembly and installation work during the interchange of cold and hot runners, thereby saving production time and reducing the labor intensity of operators. Content of the Utility Model

[0034] As can be fully understood by those skilled in the art, the features of different embodiments of the present disclosure may be partially or fully coupled or combined with each other, and may cooperate with each other in various ways and be technically driven. The embodiments of the present disclosure may be executed independently of each other, or may be executed together in a mutually dependent relationship.

[0035] Referring to Figures 1 to 8 , the present utility model discloses a gate nozzle for the interchange of a cold runner and a hot runner of a rubber injection machine, including an upper template 1 and a nozzle assembly 2, and further including a universal hot plate 3 fixed to the upper template 1. A universal gate mounting hole 4 and a universal gate 5 fixed in the universal gate mounting hole 4 are provided in the universal hot plate 3. The nozzle assembly 2 is in close contact with and communicates with the top surface of the universal gate 5, so that rubber liquid can be injected into the universal gate 5. The structure of the nozzle assembly 2 is an existing structure, so it will not be specifically described in detail.

[0036] As shown in the figure, the mounting structure of the universal gate 5 is as follows: a connecting disk 6 is provided on the outer side wall of the universal gate 5, a ring-shaped boss 7 is provided on the inner side wall of the universal gate mounting hole 4, the connecting disk 6 abuts against the ring-shaped boss 7 and is fixed by screws, and the end of the universal gate 5 is located in the inner hole of the ring-shaped boss 7.

[0037] As shown in the figure, the inner hole of the universal gate 5 includes a hole one 8, a hole two 9, and a hole three 10 that are sequentially arranged and communicate with each other. The diameter of the hole one 8 is smaller than the diameter of the hole two 9, the diameter of the hole two 9 is smaller than the diameter of the hole three 10, and the hole three 10 is a threaded hole. A step surface is formed between the hole one 8 and the hole two 9.

[0038] When the present application realizes the function of the hot runner, a hot runner kit is adopted. The hot runner kit includes a hot nozzle 11 that can be fixed and communicated with the universal gate 5. The hot nozzle 11 is provided with a threaded connection portion 12 connected to the hole three 10. The end of the hot nozzle 11 can abut and be positioned against the step surface between the hole one 8 and the hole two 9. The inner hole of the hot nozzle 11 is communicated with the inner hole of the universal gate 5, and the bottom edge of the hot nozzle 11 is flush with the bottom surface of the universal hot plate 3. Thus, after the hot mold plate is fixedly connected to the universal hot plate 3, the hot nozzle 11 is communicated with the injection cavity in the hot mold plate to realize hot injection molding. The above structure is also convenient for disassembly and assembly. The hot mold plate is of a common structure, so it will not be specifically described in detail.

[0039] When the present application realizes the function of the cold runner, a cold runner kit is adopted. The cold runner kit includes a cold runner plate 13 and a cold nozzle 14. The cold runner plate 13 is provided with a cold gate installation hole 15 and a cold gate 16 fixed in the cold gate installation hole 15. The cold gate installation hole 15 is also of a common counterbore structure. The cold gate 16 is fixed in the cold gate installation hole 15 by screws and is communicated with the cold gate installation hole 15. The upper end of the cold nozzle 14 is fixed and communicated with the universal gate 5. Specifically, the upper end is provided with a connection thread that cooperates with the hole three 10, and the end surface of the upper end can abut and be positioned against the step surface. The above structure is convenient for disassembly and assembly. The lower end of the cold nozzle 14 is fixed and communicated with the cold gate 16. Specifically, after the cold nozzle 14 is fixedly connected to the universal gate 5, the cold runner plate 13 and the universal hot plate 3 are fixed by screws. At the same time, the lower end of the cold nozzle 14 can be inserted into the inner hole of the cold gate 16 and is in a tight fit with it. The above is a plug-in connection, so the installation and disassembly are very convenient. After the cold runner plate 13 is installed, an ordinary hot plate can be installed to install the cold mold plate. Thus, the cold nozzle 14 is communicated with the injection cavity in the cold mold plate to realize cold injection molding. Of course, when converting to the cold runner, the universal hot plate is not heated and only plays a role of intermediate connection between the cold runner plate 13 and the upper template. The cold mold plate is of a common structure, so it will not be specifically described in detail.

[0040] Of course, for heat preservation and insulation, there is a heat insulation plate 19 between the universal hot plate 3 and the upper template 1, and there is also a heat insulation plate 19 between the ordinary hot plate and the cold runner plate 13.

[0041] As shown in the figure, the side wall of the cold nozzle 14 is provided with a positioning plate 17. The upper end and the lower end are respectively located on both sides of the positioning plate 17. The positioning plate 17 can position when the cold runner plate 13 is plugged into the lower end. As a preferred structure, the outer surface of the lower end is provided with an installation groove 18, and a sealing ring is arranged in the installation groove 18. The sealing ring can be in sealed contact with the inner hole of the cold gate 16, so that better sealing performance can be achieved.

[0042] The above has introduced in detail a gate nozzle for the interchange of cold runners and hot runners of a rubber injection machine provided by the embodiments of the present utility model. Specific examples are used in this article to elaborate on the principle and implementation manner of the present utility model. The description of the above embodiments is only used to help understand the method and its core idea of the present utility model; at the same time, for those of ordinary skill in the art, according to the idea of the present utility model, there will be changes in the specific implementation manner and application scope. In summary, the content of this specification should not be construed as a limitation to the present utility model.
