Those skilled in the art will understand the specific meanings of the above terms in this utility model based on specific circumstances.

[0024] In the present invention, unless otherwise expressly specified or limited, a first feature being "above" or "below" a second feature may include the first and second features being in direct contact, or may include the first and second features being in contact not directly but through another feature between them. Moreover, a first feature being "above," "above," and "above" a second feature may include the first feature being directly above or obliquely above the second feature, or may simply mean that the first feature is higher in level than the second feature. A first feature being "below," "below," and "below" a second feature may include the first feature being directly below or obliquely below the second feature, or may simply mean that the first feature is lower in level than the second feature.

[0025] Please refer to Figure 1-3 As shown, this embodiment provides an LSR cold runner system that is easy to disassemble and assemble, including a gate sleeve 10, a runner adapter block 20, a cylinder insert 30, a pad 40 and a bushing insert 50 arranged from top to bottom, wherein the runner adapter block 20, the cylinder insert 30, the pad 40 and the bushing insert 50 are connected by bolts to facilitate the installation of the mold.

[0026] Please refer to Figure 1-3As shown, the flow channel adapter block 20 and the cylinder insert 30 are provided with a glue inlet channel, the upper end surface of the gasket 40 is provided with a glue inlet, the cylinder insert 30 is installed with a cylinder 301, the cylinder 301 is installed with a valve needle 3011, the bushing insert 50 is provided with a nozzle core 501, and a spring sheet 504 is installed on the upper end of the nozzle core 501. One end of the spring sheet 504 abuts against the nozzle core 501 and the other end abuts against the bottom of the gasket 40. The valve needle 3011 can move through the cylinder insert 30 and the gasket 40 to the nozzle core 501. Specifically, liquid silicone enters through the sprue bushing 10, flows through the runner adapter block 20's inlet channel to the cylinder insert 30, and finally enters the nozzle 501 through the inlet port of the spacer block 40. It then passes through the nozzle 501 to the mold cavity, where it is heated to form the product. Due to thermal expansion and contraction, the tip of the nozzle 501 can collide with the mold core during mold closing. Therefore, the spring is pre-compressed to mitigate the impact of this collision, thereby reducing the risk of damage to the mold core and preventing product flash. Furthermore, a sealing ring 506 is installed between the nozzle 501, the spacer block 40, and the bushing insert 50 to prevent liquid silicone from escaping from the gap between the nozzle 501, the spacer block 40, and the bushing insert 50.

[0027] Please refer to Figure 1-3 As shown, the nozzle core 501 is further sheathed with a nozzle sleeve 502, forming a water passage cavity between the nozzle sleeve 502 and the nozzle core 501. A water inlet pipe 505 is provided on the side of the bushing insert 50, connecting to the water passage cavity. Specifically, water is injected into the water inlet pipe 505 during injection of the liquid silicone. The cooling water in the cavity between the nozzle sleeve 502 and the nozzle core 501 reduces the temperature of the nozzle core 501, ensuring good fluidity of the liquid silicone.

[0028] Please refer to Figure 1-3 As shown, the lower end of the nozzle core 501 is further mounted with a nozzle head 503, which is threadedly connected to the nozzle sleeve 502. Specifically, after the injection molding is completed, the nozzle core 501 needs to be cleaned, and the threaded connection can be quickly disassembled for cleaning, which is convenient for disassembly and cleaning by the operator.

[0029] Furthermore, sealing rings 506 are installed between the nozzle core 501 and the bushing, and between the nozzle core 501 and the nozzle head 503 to prevent liquid silicone or cooling water from overflowing and causing the product to be scrapped.

[0030] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of the present invention and is not intended to limit the present invention. Those skilled in the art will readily appreciate that the present invention is susceptible to various modifications and variations. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, or improvements made within the spirit and principles of the present invention shall be included within the scope of protection of the present invention.
