Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of injection molding machines, in particular to a safety door lock for an injection molding machine. Background Art
[0002] An injection molding machine, also known as an injection molding machine or an injection machine, is an important device widely used in the plastic processing industry. The injection molding machine injects the plastic in a molten state (i.e., viscous flow state) that has been plasticized into a closed mold cavity by means of the thrust of a screw (or plunger), and obtains the product after curing and shaping. The injection machine needs a safety door to protect personnel and equipment during the product production process. In the prior art, an injection molding machine door lock requires one hand to press the lock tongue to unlock and the other hand to pull open the door, which is inconvenient to use; after the safety door is opened by using the door lock, the safety door can be locked after it is closed. Therefore, when a person enters the injection molding machine for maintenance, the safety door is extremely likely to close due to accidental reasons, resulting in the maintenance personnel being locked inside the injection molding machine, which is dangerous. Content of the Utility Model
[0003] The technical problem to be solved by the utility model is: in order to overcome the problem that the door lock used in the injection molding machine in the prior art can freely open the safety door only by pressing the button on the safety door and can lock the safety door after it is opened and closed, therefore, when a person enters the injection molding machine for maintenance, the safety door is extremely likely to close due to accidental reasons, resulting in the maintenance personnel being locked inside the injection molding machine, which is dangerous, a safety door lock for an injection molding machine is provided.

[0021] Now, the present utility model will be further described in detail with reference to the drawings. These drawings are all simplified schematic diagrams, only illustrating the basic structure of the present utility model in a schematic manner, so they only show the components related to the present utility model.
[0022] As Figure 1 shown in the structural schematic diagram of the present utility model, a safety door lock for an injection molding machine includes a control unit 1 and a locking unit 2;
[0023] The control unit 1 includes an electromagnetic switch 11, a control magnet 12, and an operating member 13. The electromagnetic switch 11 is fixedly connected to the injection molding machine frame. The tail end of the control magnet 12 is rotatably connected to the safety door body. The tail end of the operating member 13 is fixedly connected to the head end of the control magnet 12. The operating member 13 is used to drive the control magnet 12 to rotate, so that the control magnet 12 approaches or moves away from the electromagnetic switch 11. Through the design of the control unit 1, it is avoided that the safety door is opened due to accidental touch. The safety door lock of the present application can be operated with one hand and is convenient to use;
[0024] As Figure 2 、 Figure 3 shown, the control unit 1 further includes a reset element 14. One end of the reset element 14 is fixedly connected to the safety door body, and the other end is fixedly connected to the head end of the control magnet 12. The reset element 14 is a spring. After releasing the operating member 13, under the elastic force of the reset element 14, it quickly resets, and it can also avoid the situation that the control magnet 12 cannot release the electromagnetic switch 11 on the injection molding machine due to the magnetic part.
[0025] The head end of the operating member 13 passes through the safety door body and extends to the side of the safety door body away from the inside of the injection molding machine. The operating member 13 is a pull rope.
[0026] The control magnet 12 is arranged on the side of the safety door body close to the inside of the injection molding machine.
[0027] As Figure 4 shown, the locking unit 2 includes a locking member 21 and a lock catch 22. The locking member 21 is fixedly connected to the lock catch 22. The lock catch 22 is fixedly connected to the safety door. The locking member 21 is electrically connected to the electromagnetic switch 11. The electromagnetic switch 11 is used to control the locking member 21 to fasten or loosen the lock catch 22. Through the design of the locking unit 2, the safety door cannot be closed accidentally after being opened, thus ensuring the safety of maintenance personnel entering the injection molding machine.
[0028] The locking member 21 is an electric push rod, and the lock catch 22 has a lock hole 221 for the rod part of the electric push rod to pass through.
[0029] In the locked state, the rod part of the locking member 21 passes through the lock hole 221 of the lock catch 22 to complete the fixation of the safety door.
[0030] When unlocking, pulling the head end of the control member 13 drives the rotation of the control magnet 12. The control magnet 12 approaches the electromagnetic switch 11. After the electromagnetic switch 11 senses the control magnet 12, it emits a signal, causing the locking member 21 to be activated. The rod portion of the locking member 21 retracts and disengages from the lock hole 221, unlocking and enabling the safety door to be opened.
[0031] In the anti-closure state, after releasing the head end of the control member 13, the control magnet 12 is reset under the elastic force of the reset element 14, that is, the control magnet 12 disengages from the electromagnetic switch 11. The electromagnetic switch cannot sense the control magnet 12 and emits a signal, causing the locking member 21 to be activated. The rod portion of the locking member 21 extends. At this time, the rod portion of the locking member 21 protrudes from the lock catch 22. Therefore, when the safety door is closed, the lock catch 22 is restricted by the rod portion of the locking member 21 and cannot be closed.
[0032] Enlightened by the ideal embodiments of the present invention described above, through the above description, relevant staff can completely make various changes and modifications without departing from the technical idea of this invention. The technical scope of this invention is not limited to the content in the specification, and its technical scope must be determined according to the scope of the claims.
