Description

Technical Field

[0002] Injection molding, also known as injection molding, has the advantages of fast production speed, high efficiency, automated operation, a wide variety of colors and patterns, shapes from simple to complex, sizes from large to small, and precise product dimensions. The product is easy to update and can form complex-shaped parts. Injection molding is suitable for mass production and molding processing fields such as complex-shaped products.

[0003] During the injection molding process, impurities such as debris and other tiny particles can adhere to the edges or outer surfaces of plastic particles (especially white raw material particles). These impurities can easily adhere to the screw and barrel walls of the injection molding machine during the plasticizing process. Long-term accumulation can cause carbonization, resulting in black spots and discolored molten plastic. When these molten plastics with black spots and discolored plastics are injected into the product, they will form undesirable appearances such as black spots and discolored plastics on the surface, resulting in defective products.

[0004] Therefore, it is urgent to research an automatic purification mechanism and purification device to remove impurities such as debris and other tiny particles on the plastic particles to avoid carbonization of the screw and the side wall of the barrel, thereby improving the yield rate.

[0048] The following describes embodiments of the present invention in detail. Examples of the embodiments are shown in the accompanying drawings, wherein the same or similar reference numerals throughout represent the same or similar elements or elements having the same or similar functions. The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and are intended only to explain the present invention and are not to be construed as limiting the present invention.

[0049] like Figures 1 to 7As shown, this embodiment provides an automatic purification mechanism for purifying granular plastic particles (referred to as materials) to remove tiny granular impurities such as debris on the surface thereof, wherein the outer diameter of the impurities is much smaller than the outer diameter of the material. The automatic purification mechanism includes a shell 100, a first slide 210, a second slide 220 and a lifting assembly 300. Among them, the shell 100 has a material distribution chamber 140 inside, and the shell 100 is provided with a feed port 131, a first discharge port 121 and a second discharge port 122 connected to the material distribution chamber 140. The feed port 131 is higher than the first discharge port 121 and higher than the second discharge port 122; the first slide 210 is provided in the material distribution chamber 140, the first slide 210 is inclined downward, and its upper end is connected to the feed port 131, and the lower end is connected to the first discharge port 121. The bottom of the first slide 210 is provided with a leakage hole 241; the second slide 220 is provided in the material distribution chamber 140, and The second chute 220 is located below the first chute 210 to receive impurities falling from the leakage hole 241. The second chute 220 is tilted downward, and its lower end is connected to the second discharge port 122. The lifting assembly 300 is provided in the material distribution chamber 140. The lifting inlet 312 of the lifting assembly 300 is located above the first discharge port 121 and is connected to the upper end of the first chute 210. The discharge port of the lifting assembly 300 is connected to the lower end of the first chute 210. The lifting assembly 300 can pump the material sliding down from the lower end of the first chute 210 to the upper end of the first chute 210. It should be noted that the diameter of the leakage hole 241 is larger than the outer diameter of the impurities and smaller than the outer diameter of the material.

[0050] With the help of the upper and lower interval arrangement of the first slide 210 and the second slide 220 in the above-mentioned automatic purification mechanism, the material enters the first slide 210 from the feed port 131 of the shell 100, so that in the process of sliding downward, the impurities attached to the material fall from the leakage hole 241 to the second slide 220. When the material slides to the lower end of the first slide 210, it can be lifted to the upper end of the first slide 210 again through the lifting component 300 for a second slide to fully separate the impurities attached to the outside of the material, ensure the cleanliness of the material, and avoid impurities adhering to the screw and the side wall of the barrel of the injection molding machine and carbonizing into black spots or different-colored molten plastic, thereby improving the appearance yield of the product surface.

[0051] Regarding the structure of the lifting assembly 300, in some embodiments, the lifting assembly 300 includes a lifting cylinder 310 and a lifting member 320. The lifting cylinder 310 has a lifting channel 311 within it. A lifting inlet 312 is defined in the sidewall of the lower end of the lifting cylinder 310, connecting to the lifting channel 311. The upper end of the lifting cylinder 310 opens to form its discharge port and connects to the upper end of the first chute 210. The lifting inlet 312 connects to the lower end of the first chute 210. The lifting member 320 is used to continuously lift material flowing into the lifting channel 311 from the lifting inlet 312 to the upper end opening, where it flows back into the first chute 210. The lower end of the lifting member 320 is lower than the lifting inlet 312 of the lifting cylinder 310. This arrangement minimizes the material lifting path, helps improve material lifting efficiency, and prevents interference between the material and the downwardly sliding material during the lifting process. In this embodiment, the lifting channel 311 is located above the first discharge port 121, meaning that the lower end opening of the lifting cylinder 310 connects to the first discharge port 121.

[0052] Specifically, the lifting member 320 includes a lifting rod 321 and a spiral piece 322. The lifting rod 321 extends vertically and can rotate about its own axis. The lifting rod 321 is disposed within the lifting channel 311, and the spiral piece 322 is disposed around the outer circumference of the lifting rod 321, with the lower end of the spiral piece 322 being lower than the lifting inlet 312. As the spiral piece 322 rotates with the lifting rod 321, it can transfer the material inside, and the transfer process is uninterrupted. The outer edge of the spiral piece 322 and the inner sidewall of the lifting channel 311 are in a sliding and frictional engagement. In other embodiments, the lifting member 320 may be a conveyor belt.

[0053] To drive the rotation of the lifting rod 321, in some embodiments, the Figure 6 As shown, the lifting assembly 300 also includes a lifting drive 330, which can be arranged in the housing 100, and its output end is connected to the lifting rod 321. In one embodiment of the present embodiment, the lifting drive 330 is a servo motor, and is arranged in the material distribution chamber 140, and is directly connected to the lifting rod 321. In another embodiment of the present embodiment, the lifting drive 330 is a servo motor, and the lifting assembly 300 also includes two magnetic members, the lifting drive 330 is arranged on the outside of the housing 100, and the output end is connected to one of the magnetic members, and the other magnetic member is connected to the lifting rod 321. Power can be transmitted by magnetic force between the two magnetic members, so that the lifting rod 321 can rotate synchronously with the output end of the lifting drive 330. With the arrangement of the magnetic member, it is also helpful to ensure the neatness and closedness of the internal space of the material distribution chamber 140. The lifting drive 330 outside is more convenient for assembly and maintenance, and it is also avoided that the lifting drive 330 is contaminated by impurities, ensuring service life.

[0054] In some embodiments, the first slideway 210 is spiral and wound around the outer circumference of the lifting cylinder 310; the second slideway 220 is spiral and wound around the outer circumference of the lifting cylinder 310; the material distribution chamber 140 is cylindrical in structure, and the second discharge port 122 is located outside the first discharge port 121. This arrangement helps to extend the rolling path of the material, increasing the probability of impurities attached to the material falling off; at the same time, it increases the load-bearing area and improves the material separation efficiency.

[0055] The automatic purification mechanism includes a spiral side plate 230, a first spiral bottom plate 240, and a second spiral bottom plate 250. The first spiral bottom plate 240 and the second spiral bottom plate 250 are both arranged around the outer periphery of the lifting cylinder 310, and the first spiral bottom plate 240 is located on the upper side of the second spiral bottom plate 250. The spiral side plate 230 is arranged around the outer periphery of the first spiral bottom plate 240 and the second spiral bottom plate 250. The first spiral bottom plate 240, the spiral side plate 230 and the outer side wall of the lifting cylinder 310 form a first slide 210; the first spiral bottom plate 240, the second spiral bottom plate 250, the spiral side plate 230 and the outer side wall of the lifting cylinder 310 form a second slide 220, and the leakage hole 241 is opened on the first spiral bottom plate 240. This arrangement ensures that the upper surface of the first spiral base plate 240 forms the sliding surface of the first slideway 210, while the lower surface encloses the second slideway 220, preventing impurities from flying during the descent. Furthermore, the outer wall of the lifting cylinder 310 regulates the descent path of materials and impurities, while the inner wall constrains the lifted material. For ease of installation, the first and second spiral base plates 240 and 250 are arranged parallel to each other.

[0056] In order to smoothly guide the impurities in the second slideway 220 into the second discharge port 122, in some embodiments, combined with Figure 5 As shown, the automatic purification mechanism also includes a side baffle 251; the side baffle 251 is perpendicular to the second spiral bottom plate 250 and is arranged at the lower end of the second spiral bottom plate 250. One end of the side baffle 251 is connected to the lifting cylinder 310, and the other end extends to directly above the second discharge port 122.

[0057] To facilitate maintenance and replacement of the first spiral base plate 240, the spiral side plate 230 is detachably connected to the first spiral base plate 240. The first spiral base plate 240 is available in various sizes, each with a different spiral angle to accommodate varying material removal requirements. The sidewalls of the spiral side plate 230 are provided with an inwardly projecting support portion, upon which the first spiral base plate 240 rests. In other embodiments, the first spiral base plate 240 and the spiral side plate 230 are screwed together. The spiral side plate 230 is fixedly connected to the second spiral base plate 250.

[0058] The automatic purification mechanism also includes a connector 260, which is strip-shaped and extends in the vertical direction. The connector 260 is connected to the outer side of the spiral side plate 230, so that the spiral side plate 230, the first spiral bottom plate 240, and the second spiral bottom plate 250 are connected as a whole, thereby improving the stability of the physical structure surrounding the first slideway 210 and the second slideway 220. Furthermore, the automatic purification mechanism includes a plurality of connectors 260, which are evenly spaced around the central axis of the spiral side plate 230.

[0059] To facilitate production and assembly, in some embodiments, the housing 100 includes a peripheral shell 110, a bottom shell 120, and a top shell 130. The bottom shell 120 is cylindrical, and the bottom shell 120 and the top shell 130 are respectively located at the upper and lower ends of the peripheral shell 110, and enclose a feed cavity 140. The bottom shell 120 is provided with a first discharge port 121 and a second discharge port 122, and the top shell 130 is provided with a feed port 131. A first discharge pipe 126 and a second discharge pipe 127 are both provided in the bottom shell 120 and are respectively connected to the first discharge port 121 and the second discharge port 122. A feed pipe 132 is provided in the top shell 130 and is connected to the feed port 131.

[0060] After the material flows out of the first chute 210, in order to ensure that it can smoothly enter the first discharge port 121, in some embodiments, the bottom shell 120 is provided with a recessed portion 123, which is funnel-shaped. The first discharge port 121 is located at the bottom of the recessed portion 123. The recessed portion 123 plays a converging role, which facilitates the material to enter the second discharge port 122 more easily and reduces the accumulation of material in the distribution chamber 140. Among them, the lower edge of the lifting inlet 312 is flush with the bottom of the recessed portion 123, and the upper edge of the lifting inlet 312 is higher than the bottom of the recessed portion 123, so that the material can enter the lifting cylinder 310 again.

[0061] Furthermore, the housing 100 includes a collecting member 124 in the form of an annular cylinder. The collecting member 124 is disposed on the bottom housing 120 and surrounds the outer periphery of the first discharge port 121. The collecting member 124 acts as an isolation member, preventing the first discharge port 121 from communicating with the second discharge port 122, thereby preventing materials from bouncing off and entering the second discharge port 122 when dropped, and preventing impurities from bouncing off and entering the first discharge port 121 when dropped.

[0062] In this embodiment, the lower end of the spiral side plate 230 is retracted inwardly to the inside of the collecting member 124 to guide the material to the first discharge port 121 , so that the material can smoothly enter the recessed portion 123 and finally enter the lifting cylinder 310 .

[0063] To facilitate the entry of impurities into the second discharge port 122, the bottom housing 120 has an annular groove 125. This groove 125 surrounds the outer periphery of the recessed portion 123, and the bottom of the groove 125 slopes downward from the inside outward. The second discharge port 122 is located at the bottom of the groove 125. The inclined groove 125 is used to guide impurities outward, preventing them from entering the first discharge port 121. Furthermore, the bottom of the groove 125 is tilted toward the second discharge port 122, meaning that the bottom of the groove 125 is lowest at the second discharge port 122.

[0064] After the material enters the first chute 210, it slides or rolls, continuously moving downward. To prevent material jamming caused by high friction, the automatic purification mechanism also includes a vibration driver 400, which is used to drive the first spiral base plate 240, the second spiral base plate 250, and the spiral side plate 230 to vibrate synchronously in the vertical direction. The vibration can temporarily separate the material from the side wall of the first chute 210, thereby overcoming the static friction between the two, allowing the material to slide or roll smoothly downward when it falls again. In addition, the vertical vibration direction helps to overcome gravity and lift the material. At the same time, the vibration process also helps to separate impurities attached to the material, improving the purification effect of the material. Furthermore, the vibration causes the material to fall in a continuous jumping posture, increasing the material's descent speed. Finally, the first spiral base plate 240, the second spiral base plate 250, and the spiral side plate 230 vibrate synchronously in the vertical direction to prevent the material from jumping out of the spiral side plate 230. It should be noted that during the vibration process, the lifting cylinder 310 remains stationary to ensure the stability of the internal lifting member 320.

[0065] Exemplarily, the vibration driving member 400 is arranged at the bottom, and the output end of the vibration driving member 400 can reciprocate in the vertical direction, the second spiral bottom plate 250 is connected to the output end of the vibration driving member 400, and can move synchronously therewith, the first spiral bottom plate 240 and the spiral side plate 230 are fixedly connected to the second spiral bottom plate 250, and can both move synchronously with the second spiral bottom plate 250. Specifically, the first spiral bottom plate 240 is fixedly connected to the spiral side plate 230, and the spiral side plate 230 is fixedly connected to the second spiral bottom plate 250. Among them, an elastic member can also be provided between the second spiral bottom plate 250 and the bottom shell 120 to apply an upward elastic force to the second spiral bottom plate 250 to reduce the output power of the vibration driving member 400. In some embodiments, the vibration driving member 400 only drives the first spiral bottom plate 240 to vibrate synchronously in the vertical direction to reduce the energy required for driving and reduce energy consumption.

[0066] In some embodiments, the automatic purification mechanism further includes a heating element (not shown in the figure), which is embedded in the side wall surrounding the first slide 210 and is used to heat the material on the first slide 210. The heating element is embedded in the interior of the first spiral bottom plate 240. Compared with gas heating in the prior art, direct contact heating has higher heating efficiency, better stability, and reduces heat loss. The heating element can be a heating wire embedded in the first spiral bottom plate 240.
