[0023] Next, in combination with the embodiments of the present utility model, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present utility model, rather than all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without making creative efforts fall within the scope of protection of the present utility model.

[0024] Implementation mode

[0025] Please refer to Figure 1 -4, the turntable injection molding machine locking device, comprising: an upper template 1 and a lower template 3. The upper surface of the lower template 3 is rotatably connected with a turntable 2. Gear teeth 4 are arranged around the turntable 2. The upper surface of the turntable 2 is fixedly connected with a rigid sealing ring 5;

[0026] The inside of the lower template 3 is fixedly connected with a fixing ring 8. A top bead 9 is arranged inside the fixing ring 8. An output rod 7 is inserted into the fixing ring 8. A first hydraulic cylinder 6 is sleeved on the outer surface of the output rod 7;

[0027] The inside of the upper template 1 is fixedly connected with a fixing cap 10. A fixing groove 11 is opened inside the fixing cap 10. A groove corresponding to the rigid sealing ring 5 is opened inside the upper template 1.

[0028] The technical solution provided by this embodiment is as follows: First, the second hydraulic cylinder 12 outputs, moving the upper template 1 downward to a preset position. Then, the first hydraulic cylinder 6 is activated. The first hydraulic cylinder 6 outputs the output rod 7 inside upward. The output rod 7 pushes the top beads 9 to move around and fixes them through the fixing grooves 11 inside the fixing cap 10. When fixing, due to the low position of the fixing grooves 11, the top beads 11 can apply a certain downward force to the fixing cap 10. Then, the fixing cap 10 drives the upper template 1 to apply a certain downward force. The rigid sealing ring 5 on the upper surface of the turntable 2 seals the turntable 2 and the upper template 1. Next, the injection molding work can be carried out. After completing the injection molding operation, first, the output rod 7 inside the first hydraulic cylinder 6 falls back, the top beads 9 lose support and fall back, and the support between the top beads 9 and the fixing cap 10 is lost. Next, start the second hydraulic cylinder 12 to lift the upper template 1. Then, after taking out the workpiece, start the motor 16 to drive the gear 17 to rotate a certain angle and reach the next working station to repeat the operation.

[0029] Further, the upper surface of the upper template 1 is fixedly connected with a second hydraulic cylinder 12. The other end of the second hydraulic cylinder 12 is fixedly connected with a top plate 18. One end of the top plate 18 is fixedly connected with a moving rod 13.

[0030] Specifically, through the setting of the second hydraulic cylinder 12, the upper template 1 can move up and down and has a relatively high downward pressure.

[0031] Further, the lower surface of the lower template 3 is fixedly connected with a support seat 19. The lower surface of the support seat 19 is fixedly connected with a base 15. The outer surface of the lower template 3 is fixedly connected with a collar 14.

[0032] Specifically, through the setting of the support group 3, the installation of the lower template 3 is more stable, avoiding the deformation of the lower template 3 caused by too few support points.

[0033] Further, the upper surface of the base 15 is fixedly connected with a motor 16. The output end of the motor 16 is fixedly connected with a gear 17. The gear 17 meshes with the gear teeth 4 on the outer circumference of the turntable 2.

[0034] Specifically, through the meshing of the gear 17 with the gear teeth 4, the turntable 2 can rotate in a timely manner.

[0035] Further, the number of the top beads 9 is four groups, and the number of each group is eight. When fixed through the fixing ring 8, the distance between the circle formed by the outer periphery of the top beads 9 and the lower template 3 is slightly less than the distance from the fixing groove 11 to the bottom of the fixing cap 10.

[0036] Specifically, through the above position settings of the top beads 9 and the fixing grooves 11, when fixing, it can provide a certain downward pressure on the upper template 1, making the connection closer and increasing the tightness during connection.

[0037] Further, the length of the fixing cap 10 on the lower surface of the upper template 1 should be less than the length of the fixing ring 8 on the upper surface of the lower template 3, and the top end of the output rod 7 is arc-shaped.

[0038] Specifically, through the setting of different lengths of the fixing cap 10 and the fixing ring 8, when fixing, it can avoid the conflict during fixed sealing caused by the length.

[0039] The above are only the preferred embodiments of the present invention, and are not intended to limit the present invention. Any modifications, equivalent replacements, improvements, etc. made within the spirit and principle of the present invention shall be included within the protection scope of the present invention.
