Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of injection molding machine technology, specifically to a plastic preform injection molding machine. Background Technology

[0002] A plastic preform is a blank made before blow molding of a plastic bottle, facilitating subsequent blow molding. A plastic preform injection molding machine is a molding device that uses plastic molds to form plastic preforms of various shapes from thermoplastic or thermosetting plastics. After injection molding, the plastic preform needs to be unloaded. However, traditional plastic preform injection molding machines directly unload the injection-molded preforms, which can easily lead to damage between preforms. Furthermore, because the preforms are relatively soft due to their high temperature after injection molding, they are prone to deformation, affecting the precision and efficiency of subsequent blow molding, impacting quality stability, and hindering mass production. Therefore, to avoid the shortcomings of existing technology, it is necessary to improve it. Utility Model Content

[0003] The purpose of this invention is to overcome the shortcomings and deficiencies in the existing technology and provide a plastic preform injection molding machine that improves the stability of blow molding quality.

The drive wheel is throttle connected to the driven sleeve.

[0009] Furthermore, the outer side of the driving wheel is provided with driving teeth evenly distributed, and the outer side of the driven sleeve is provided with driven teeth that mesh with the driving teeth evenly distributed.
