DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0040] The utility model will be described in further detail below in combination with the drawings and embodiments.

[0041] For example, Figure 1 and Figure 2As shown, the embodiment disclosed herein is a movable mold plate structure for a multi-component injection molding machine, which comprises a movable mold plate 1.

[0042] As shown, Figure 3 In order to further reduce the weight of the movable mold plate 1, a circular groove 6 is formed in the front end of the movable mold plate 1. A rotating disc 7 is rotatably arranged in the groove 6.

[0043] As shown, Figure 4 In order to realize the rotation of the rotating disc 7, a driving mechanism for driving the rotating disc 7 to rotate is arranged on the movable mold plate 1. Specifically, the driving mechanism comprises a plurality of edge teeth 8 arranged on the outer periphery of the rotating disc 7, a gear 9 arranged on one side of the movable mold plate 1 and engaged with the edge teeth 8, and a first power source 10 arranged on one side of the movable mold plate 1 and used for driving the gear 9 to rotate. The first power source 10 is preferably an electric motor, and the output shaft thereof is coaxially connected to the center of the end surface of the gear 9. The side edge of the movable mold plate 1 is provided with an avoiding groove 27 for the gear 9 and the edge teeth 8 to abut, so that the gear 9 can smoothly engage with the edge teeth 8.

[0044] As shown, Figure 5 In order to ensure the stability of the rotating disc 7 when hovering, a limiting mechanism for locking the circumferential position of the rotating disc 7 is arranged on the movable mold plate 1. The limiting mechanism comprises a locking disc 11 arranged on the side end surface of the rotating disc 7 away from the pull plate 4, two locking grooves 12 arranged on both sides of the edge of the locking disc 11, a locking block 13 arranged on one side of the locking disc 11, and a second power source 14 arranged on the movable mold plate 1 to drive the locking block 13 to enter or leave the locking groove 12. The second power source 14 is a pneumatic cylinder or an oil cylinder, and the output shaft thereof is fixed to the locking block 13 to realize the quick extension and contraction of the locking block 13. In the embodiment, when the locking disc 11 rotates with the rotating disc 7 to a position where one of the locking grooves 12 is directly opposite the locking block 13, the second power source 14 drives the locking block 13 to extend and insert into the corresponding locking groove 12, thereby completing the circumferential locking of the locking disc 11 and the rotating disc 7. When the rotating disc 7 needs to be replaced, the locking block 13 is retracted and separated from the locking groove 12 by the second power source 14, so that the circumferential locking of the locking disc 11 and the rotating disc 7 is released, and the first power source 10 can drive the rotating disc 7 to continue to rotate through the gear 9 and the edge teeth 8.

[0045] As shown, Figure 6 and Figure 7As shown, in order to realize the demolding operation of the movable mold plate 1, the pull plate 4 is provided with a stripping mechanism on both sides of the notch 5 for driving the injection molded workpiece to separate from the rotating disc 7, and the stripping mechanism comprises a plurality of ejector pins 15 sequentially penetrating through the bottom of the groove 6 and the rotating disc 7, and a driving assembly 16 provided on the pull plate 4 for driving the ejector pins 15 to extend and retract.

When the lead screw 20 rotates circumferentially, it can drive the nut 21 to translate forward and backward. Specifically, the power part comprises a driven wheel 22 located on the side of the pull plate 4 away from the cavity 2 and connected to the lead screw 20, a driving wheel 23 located on the side of the driven wheel 22, a transmission belt 24 wound around the driving wheel 23 and the driven wheel 22, and a fourth power source 25 connected to the driving wheel 23 for driving the driving wheel 23 to rotate. The fourth power source 25 is preferably an electric motor fixed to the pull plate 4, and its output shaft is coaxially fixed to the driving wheel 23, so as to transmit power to the lead screw 20 through the driving wheel 23, the transmission belt 24 and the driven wheel 22, thereby realizing the circumferential rotation of the lead screw 20. The plate surface of the pull plate 4 away from the cavity 2 is provided with a tensioning wheel 26 for tensioning the transmission belt 24, so as to improve the tightness of the transmission between the transmission belt 24 and the driving wheel 23 and the driven wheel 22, thereby improving the transmission efficiency and precision.

[0050] As Figure 10 shown, in order to improve the stability of the ejection guide plate 17 and the ejector pin 15 when translating, a sliding guide rod 19 is arranged between the bottom of the cavity 2 and the pull plate 4 and penetrates the ejection guide plate 17.

[0051] In this embodiment, the operator can install different structural forms of the driving assembly 16 on the pull plate 4 according to the precision requirement of demolding, so as to adapt to different working conditions and increase the application range.
