[0002] A hot runner system is a heated component used in injection molds to inject melted plastic particles into the mold cavity. In a hot runner system, the nozzle needs to be positioned circumferentially to ensure injection stability and prevent it from rotating.
[0003] To prevent nozzle rotation, existing technologies typically utilize the axial expansion and deformation of the nozzle structure, runner structure, and mounting plate when heated to press the nozzle against the nozzle plate. This method can easily subject the nozzle to unstable pressure due to temperature fluctuations, hindering circumferential nozzle rotation. This can affect injection stability and negatively impact the overall structure due to axial force design requirements. Utility Model Content

[0006] A nozzle mechanism for preventing rotation includes a nozzle with a positioning piece clamped on the nozzle. The positioning piece has a positioning portion extending away from the nozzle. The positioning portion is provided with a positioning structure. The rotation of the positioning piece is limited by the cooperation of a positioning member and the positioning structure.
[0007] In the present invention, the nozzle includes a nozzle body and a nozzle sleeve, the upper end of the nozzle body is installed in the nozzle sleeve, the lower end of the nozzle body extends outward from the bottom of the nozzle sleeve, and the positioning piece is clamped on the nozzle sleeve.

[0013] Based on the anti-rotation nozzle mechanism provided above, the utility model also provides a nozzle plate structure, including a nozzle plate and the above-mentioned nozzle mechanism, the nozzle plate has a nozzle mounting position, and the nozzle mechanism is installed in the nozzle mounting position.
[0014] In the present invention, the nozzle mounting position includes a first mounting position and a second mounting position connected up and down, the first mounting position is adapted to the positioning piece, the second mounting position is adapted to the nozzle, and a mounting surface is formed between the first mounting position and the second mounting position; the positioning piece is installed in the first mounting position and abuts the mounting surface, the nozzle is installed in the second mounting position and its lower end extends outward through the second mounting position.
[0015] In the present invention, the nozzle plate also has a third mounting position, which is connected to the first mounting position and can accommodate the positioning part, and the third mounting position has a mounting hole that can correspond to the positioning structure; the positioning part is installed in the third mounting position, and the positioning part is fixed in the third mounting position based on the cooperation between the positioning part, the positioning structure and the mounting hole.

[0025] In order to make the purpose, technical solutions and advantages of the embodiments of the present invention clearer, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention.
[0026] It should be noted that if the embodiments of the present invention involve directional indications (such as up, down, left, right, front, back, top, bottom, inside, outside, vertical, horizontal, longitudinal, counterclockwise, clockwise, circumferential, radial, axial...), then the directional indications are only used to explain the relative position relationship, movement status, etc. between the various components in a certain specific posture (as shown in the accompanying drawings). If the specific posture changes, the directional indications will also change accordingly.
[0027] In addition, if there are descriptions involving "first" or "second" in the embodiments of the present invention, the descriptions of "first" or "second" are only for descriptive purposes and cannot be understood as indicating or implying their relative importance or implicitly indicating the number of the indicated technical features. Therefore, the features specified as "first" or "second" may explicitly or implicitly include at least one of such features. In addition, the technical solutions between the various embodiments can be combined with each other, but this must be based on the fact that ordinary technicians in this field can implement them. When the combination of technical solutions is contradictory or cannot be implemented, it should be deemed that such a combination of technical solutions does not exist and is not within the scope of protection required by the present invention.
[0028] like Figures 1 to 8 As shown, this embodiment discloses an anti-rotation nozzle mechanism, including a nozzle 1, with a positioning piece 2 clamped on the nozzle 1. The positioning piece 2 has a positioning portion 22 extending away from the nozzle 1, and the positioning portion 22 is provided with a positioning structure 23, wherein the positioning structure 23 is a positioning hole or a positioning recess. The positioning piece 3 cooperates with the positioning structure 23 to prevent the positioning piece 2 from rotating. The positioning piece 2 is circumferentially positioned and connected to the nozzle 1. In this embodiment, the positioning piece 3 is a positioning pin. The nozzle mechanism of this embodiment, through the positioning piece 3 and the positioning structure, is tightly fitted between the positioning piece 2 and the nozzle plate 4, and the two will not be loose. Therefore, after the nozzle 1 is installed, there is no room for rotation, which can achieve a better positioning effect and effectively ensure the stability of the injection process and the overall structure.
[0029] In this embodiment, the nozzle 1 includes a nozzle body 11 and a nozzle sleeve 12. The upper end of the nozzle body 11 is installed in the nozzle sleeve 12, and the lower end of the nozzle body 11 extends outward from the bottom of the nozzle sleeve 12. The positioning piece 2 is clamped on the nozzle sleeve 12.
[0030] In this embodiment, the nozzle sleeve 12 has a positioning step 121, the outer peripheral surface of the positioning step 121 is a clamping surface 1211, and the positioning piece 2 has a clamping hole 21 adapted to the clamping surface 1211. The positioning piece 2 is clamped to the positioning step 121 of the nozzle sleeve 12 based on the cooperation between the clamping hole 21 and the clamping surface 1211, thereby realizing circumferential positioning of the positioning piece 2 between the nozzle sleeve 12.
[0031] To achieve the proper alignment between the positioning piece 2 and the nozzle sleeve 12, the engaging surface 1211 can be any structure that allows for proper alignment. Theoretically, any non-circular cross-section, such as a polygon, ellipse, or irregular shape, will suffice. In this embodiment, the engaging surface 1211 is formed by a combination of two opposing arcuate surfaces and two opposing flat surfaces. The two opposing flat surfaces secure the nozzle sleeve 12 in position and circumferentially align the nozzle sleeve 12 with the positioning piece 2.
[0032] In this embodiment, the nozzle sleeve 12 has a limiting step 122, which is arranged at the upper end of the positioning step 121. The outer diameter of the limiting step 122 is larger than the outer diameter of the positioning step 121, and a limiting surface 123 is formed between the limiting step 122 and the positioning step 121; in addition, a nozzle sleeve flange 13 is sleeved on the nozzle sleeve 12, and a spring washer 14 is also sleeved between the nozzle sleeve flange 13 and the positioning step 121; the limiting surface 123 and the spring washer 14 are used to axially limit the positioning plate 2.
[0033] Based on the above-disclosed anti-rotation nozzle mechanism, this embodiment also discloses a nozzle plate structure, including a nozzle plate 4 and the above-mentioned nozzle mechanism, the nozzle plate 4 has a nozzle mounting position 41, and the nozzle mechanism is installed in the nozzle mounting position 41; the nozzle mounting position 41 is a stepped hole position, including a first mounting position 411 and a second mounting position 412 connected upper and lower, the first mounting position 411 is adapted to the positioning piece 2, the second mounting position 412 is adapted to the nozzle 1, and a mounting surface 413 is formed between the first mounting position 411 and the second mounting position 412; the positioning piece 2 is installed in the first mounting position 411 and abuts the mounting surface 413, the nozzle 1 is installed in the second mounting position 412 and its lower end extends outward through the second mounting position 412.
[0034] In this embodiment, the nozzle plate 4 further has a third mounting position 42, which is connected to the first mounting position 411 and accommodates the positioning portion 22. The third mounting position 42 has a mounting hole 43 that corresponds to the positioning structure 23. The positioning portion 22 is installed in the third mounting position 42, and the positioning member 3 cooperates with the positioning structure 23 and the mounting hole 43 to fix the positioning portion 22 in the third mounting position 42. The limiting action of the positioning member 3 maintains the relative position of the positioning piece 2 and the nozzle plate 4, effectively ensuring the stability of the nozzle mechanism during the injection molding process.
