Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of hot runner plate technology, specifically relating to a centrally symmetrical hot runner plate. Background Technology

[0002] Hot runner technology represents a new stage in the development of injection molding technology, offering significant advantages in reducing costs, improving product quality, shortening molding cycles, and increasing automation. A hot runner system typically consists of a hot runner plate, hot nozzles, and temperature control accessories. The hot runner plate is the core component of the entire system, its main function being to efficiently distribute the melt to each nozzle. To fully leverage the advantages of hot runner technology, multi-cavity molds are the primary direction for its development and application, thus placing higher demands on the hot runner plate.

[0003] Currently, the flow channel shape in existing hot runner plates is relatively simple, making it difficult to control the flow state of the melt in the flow channel. Since the heating components cannot heat the melt evenly, it is difficult to ensure uniform glue dispensing from each nozzle during use, and dead spots are prone to occur. Therefore, we propose a centrally symmetrical hot runner plate. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide a centrally symmetrical hot runner plate to solve the existing problems mentioned in the background art.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a centrally symmetrical hot runner plate, comprising an upper hot runner plate, a heating plate, and an extension plate. A lower hot runner plate is fixedly installed at the bottom of the upper hot runner plate by bolts. Both the upper and lower hot runner plates have a cross-shaped structure. Upper and lower hot runner channels are respectively formed on the opposite side surfaces of the upper and lower hot runner plates. Upper and lower side plates are respectively provided on the outer periphery of the upper and lower hot runner channels. A heating plate is fixedly installed inside both the upper and lower hot runner plates. The heating plate also has a cross-shaped structure. Extension plates are provided on both sides of the support plate of the heating plate. The extension plates extend to the outer side of the upper and lower side plates and are embedded therein. The extension plates are made of a thermally conductive material.

[0006] Preferably, the bottom surface of the upper side plate is provided with a fitting groove, and the top surface of the lower side plate is provided with a fitting protrusion. The upper side plate and the lower side plate are spliced ​​together by the provided fitting groove and fitting protrusion.

[0007] Preferably, a feed nozzle is provided at the top center of the upper hot runner plate, and a feed inlet is provided at the inner center of the upper hot runner. The feed nozzle extends into the interior of the upper hot runner and is sealed and connected to the feed inlet.

[0008] Preferably, the bottom of the lower hot runner plate is provided with discharge nozzles around its perimeter, and the bottom surface of the lower hot runner is provided with a discharge port at its end, and the discharge nozzles and the discharge port are sealed and connected.

[0009] Preferably, an upper heat insulation groove is formed between the upper heat flow channel plate and the upper side plate, and a lower heat insulation groove is formed between the lower heat flow channel plate and the lower side plate, with the upper heat insulation groove and the lower heat insulation groove fitting together.

[0010] Preferably, the heating plate has through holes at its center and at the ends of the four support plates. The through holes penetrate the heating plate and are fitted around the outer periphery of the feed nozzle or discharge nozzle.

[0011] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0012] 1. By improving the traditional heating plate, extension plates are set on both sides and extended and embedded into the upper and lower side plates. Together with the heating plates on the upper and lower hot runner plates, the hot runners formed by the upper and lower hot runners are surrounded, thereby improving the uniformity of the melt heating inside the hot runners. This avoids the situation where the melt flow state is affected by uneven heating, resulting in dead spots and affecting the uniformity of glue dispensing.

[0013] 2. By opening upper and lower heat insulation grooves between the hot runners on the upper and lower side plates, the efficiency of heat transfer from the plate to the other side is extended, so that heat can be concentrated on the upper and lower side plates as much as possible, thereby reducing heat loss and ensuring heating stability.
