[0033] Embodiment one

[0034] The embodiment provides an injection molding machine cooling system which can cool hydraulic oil of the injection molding machine, can cool a motor and a speed reducer of electric melting glue, has a simple structure, reduces cooling cost of the injection molding machine, and improves cooling effect of the injection molding machine.

[0035] Specifically, as shown in the figure, Figure 1 The injection molding machine cooling system comprises a first filter 100, a circulating pump 200, a first cooler 300 and a second cooler 400.

[0036] The connection relationship between the parts of the injection molding machine cooling system and the oil tank 10, the motor 20 and the speed reducer of the injection molding machine is as follows:

[0037] The oil inlet of the first filter 100 is communicated with the oil tank 10, the oil outlet of the first filter 100 is communicated with the oil inlet of the circulating pump 200, the oil outlet of the circulating pump 200 is communicated with the oil inlet of the first cooler 300, the oil outlet of the first cooler 300 is communicated with the oil inlet of the motor 20, the oil outlet of the motor 20 is communicated with the oil inlet of the speed reducer box 30 of the speed reducer, the oil outlet of the speed reducer box 30 is communicated with the oil inlet of the second cooler 400, and the oil outlet of the second cooler 400 is communicated with the oil tank 10.

[0038] The working principle of the injection molding machine cooling system is as follows:

[0039] The hydraulic oil in the oil tank 10 is first introduced into the first filter 100 under the action of the circulating pump 200 for filtration, the filtered hydraulic oil is introduced into the first cooler 300 through the circulating pump 200 and is cooled, the cooled hydraulic oil is sequentially heat-exchanged with the motor 20 and the speed reducer, so that the temperature of the motor 20 and the speed reducer is reduced, the heat-exchanged and heated hydraulic oil is introduced into the second cooler 400 and is cooled, and the cooled hydraulic oil is returned to the oil tank 10.

[0040] The injection molding machine cooling system cools the hydraulic oil in the oil tank 10 through the first cooler 300, and cools the motor 20 and the speed reducer by using the cooled hydraulic oil, so that the oil temperature of the hydraulic oil heat-exchanged with the motor 20 and the speed reducer is lower, the heat dissipation effect of the motor 20 and the speed reducer is improved, and the reliability of the motor 20 and the speed reducer is improved. Moreover, the second cooler 400 is used to cool the hydraulic oil heat-exchanged with the motor 20 and the speed reducer, so that the temperature of the hydraulic oil returned to the oil tank 10 is reduced, and the purpose of cooling the hydraulic oil is achieved. That is, the injection molding machine cooling system can cool the hydraulic oil, the motor 20 and the speed reducer at the same time, compared with the hydraulic oil, the motor 20 and the speed reducer which are respectively provided with cooling systems, the structure of the injection molding machine cooling system is greatly simplified, the cost is reduced, and the cooling effect is improved.

[0041] By setting the first filter 100 to filter the hydraulic oil circulating in the injection molding machine cooling system, the risk of part blockage can be reduced, thereby improving the stability of the injection molding machine cooling system.

[0042] Optionally, the first filter 100 can adopt a self-sealing oil suction filter. The self-sealing oil suction filter has a self-sealing valve, which can isolate the oil tank 10 oil circuit, so that the hydraulic oil in the oil tank 10 cannot flow outwards, thereby making it more convenient to replace, clean the filter element or maintain the system.

[0043] Further, the injection molding machine cooling system can share the self-sealing oil suction filter with the main oil circuit of the injection molding machine. Specifically, the oil outlet of the self-sealing oil suction filter is in communication with the oil inlet of the oil pump on the main oil circuit of the injection molding machine in addition to the oil inlet of the circulating pump 200. In this way, the cost of parts can be reduced.

[0044] Preferably, the injection molding machine cooling system further comprises a pressure sensor and an alarm. The pressure sensor is arranged on the first filter 100, and the pressure sensor is in signal connection with the alarm. The alarm is used to issue an alarm when the pressure value of the pressure sensor exceeds the preset pressure. It can be understood that when the pressure value of the pressure sensor exceeds the preset pressure, it indicates that the first filter 100 is severely blocked, which will affect the cooling effect of the motor 20 and the reducer. Therefore, at this time, the alarm issues an alarm to remind the staff to timely maintain the first filter 100, thereby improving the reliability of the injection molding machine cooling system, and further improving the reliability of the motor 20 and the reducer.

[0045] Further, continuing to refer to Figure 1 In the present embodiment, the circulating pump 200 comprises a circulating oil pump 210 and an oil pump motor 220 for driving the circulating oil pump 210 to work.

[0046] Optionally, the circulating oil pump 210 can be a one-way constant-displacement hydraulic pump. The one-way constant-displacement hydraulic pump has a simple structure and can reduce maintenance costs.

[0047] Further, continuing to refer to Figure 1 The injection molding machine cooling system can further comprise a second filter 800. The oil inlet of the second filter 800 is in communication with the oil outlet of the circulating pump 200, and the oil outlet of the second filter 800 is in communication with the oil inlet of the first cooler 300. The second filter 800 is used to assist the first filter 100 in filtering the hydraulic oil, further reducing the risk of impurities in the hydraulic oil blocking the first cooler 300, the motor 20, the reducer and the second cooler 400.

[0048] Optionally, the second filter 800 can adopt a low-pressure precision filter. The low-pressure precision filter has low cost, long service life, and can perform more precise filtration, thereby having better filtration effect.

[0049] Optionally, the first cooler 300 and the second cooler 400 can each be a small-flow cooler, so that the system cost can be reduced.

[0050] Embodiment Two

[0051] The injection molding machine cooling system of the present embodiment is substantially the same as that of Embodiment One, and only improved on the basis of Embodiment One. Therefore, only the differences between the two will be described herein, and the same structures of the present embodiment and Embodiment One will not be described again.

[0052] Specifically, continuing to refer to Figure 1 In the present embodiment, the injection molding machine cooling system further comprises a first electromagnetic valve 500, a second electromagnetic valve 600, and a third electromagnetic valve 700.

[0053] The one end of the first electromagnetic valve 500 is in communication with the oil outlet of the first cooler 300, and the other end is in communication with the oil inlet of the motor 20. The one end of the second electromagnetic valve 600 is in communication with the oil outlet of the first cooler 300, and the other end is in communication with the oil inlet of the speed reducer 30. The one end of the third electromagnetic valve 700 is in communication with the other end of the second electromagnetic valve 600 and the oil outlet of the motor 20, and the other end is in communication with the oil inlet of the second cooler 400.

[0054] By arranging the first electromagnetic valve 500, the second electromagnetic valve 600, and the third electromagnetic valve 700, the injection molding machine cooling system has a single hydraulic oil cooling mode, a single motor cooling mode, a single speed reducer cooling mode, and a comprehensive hydraulic oil, motor, and speed reducer cooling mode.

[0055] Specifically, in the single hydraulic oil cooling mode, the first electromagnetic valve 500 is closed, and the second electromagnetic valve 600 and the third electromagnetic valve 700 are both opened. In the single motor cooling mode, the first electromagnetic valve 500 and the third electromagnetic valve 700 are opened, and the second electromagnetic valve 600 is closed. In the single speed reducer cooling mode, the first electromagnetic valve 500 and the third electromagnetic valve 700 are both closed, and the second electromagnetic valve 600 is opened. In the comprehensive hydraulic oil, motor, and speed reducer cooling mode, the first electromagnetic valve 500 is opened, and the second electromagnetic valve 600 and the third electromagnetic valve 700 are both closed.

[0056] The injection molding machine cooling system can switch between the single hydraulic oil cooling mode, the single motor cooling mode, the single speed reducer cooling mode, and the comprehensive hydraulic oil, motor, and speed reducer cooling mode by controlling the opening and closing of the first electromagnetic valve 500, the second electromagnetic valve 600, and the third electromagnetic valve 700, so that the use flexibility is high, and various use requirements of users can be met.

[0057] Further, the motor 20 is provided with a first temperature sensor for detecting the temperature of the motor 20, the reduction gearbox 30 is provided with a second temperature sensor for detecting the temperature of the reduction gearbox 30, and the oil tank 10 is provided with a third temperature sensor for detecting the temperature of the hydraulic oil. The injection molding machine cooling system further comprises a controller, the controller is in signal connection with the first temperature sensor, the second temperature sensor, the third temperature sensor, the first electromagnetic valve 500, the second electromagnetic valve 600 and the third electromagnetic valve 700, and the controller is used for controlling the opening and closing of the first electromagnetic valve 500, the second electromagnetic valve 600 and the third electromagnetic valve 700 according to the temperature of the motor 20 detected by the first temperature sensor, the temperature of the reduction gearbox 30 detected by the second temperature sensor and the temperature of the hydraulic oil detected by the third temperature sensor.

[0058] That is, by arranging the first temperature sensor, the second temperature sensor, the third temperature sensor and the controller, intelligent temperature control of the hydraulic oil, the motor 20 and the reduction gearbox can be realized, so that the hydraulic oil, the motor 20 and the reduction gearbox can always be kept at a suitable working temperature, which is beneficial to improve the working reliability of the motor 20 and the reduction gearbox and prolong the service life of the motor 20 and the reduction gearbox.

[0059] Exemplarily, if the first temperature sensor detects that the temperature of the motor 20 is relatively high and the second temperature sensor detects that the temperature of the reduction gearbox is not high, the controller can control the first electromagnetic valve 500 and the third electromagnetic valve 700 to be opened and the second electromagnetic valve 600 to be closed, so that the injection molding machine cooling system executes the single-motor cooling mode.

[0060] Obviously, the above embodiments of the utility model are only examples for clearly explaining the utility model, and are not the limitation of the embodiments of the utility model. For ordinary skilled in the art, various obvious changes, re-adjustment and replacement can be made without departing from the protection scope of the utility model.
