TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The utility model belongs to test device technical field relates to a kind of mould for verifying injection molding machine check ring sealing performance. BACKGROUND
[0002] Check ring is the movable component of the screw head of injection molding machine, and the function of check ring of injection molding machine is to control the flow of material and avoid the backflow of molten material at the front end of screw. First, at the beginning of injection cycle, when the thermoplastic melt is injected into the mold cavity, the check ring is closed to avoid the backflow of molten material at the front end. Secondly, when the screw retreats and the polymer has been plasticized and is ready for the next injection, the check ring is opened to provide a channel for the polymer. When the screw rotates and plasticizes, the molten material transported to the screw head by the screw groove has a certain pressure, which pushes the check ring forward. During injection, the screw moves forward to apply pressure to the molten material at the front end, while the check ring moves backward under the pressure of the molten material at the front end. The closed sealing of check ring avoids the backflow of molten material at the front end of screw head, and the opening and closing ability of check ring directly affects the quality of products.
[0003] Check ring controls the opening and closing of the channel by moving forward and backward. During the movement, check ring may wear out, resulting in poor sealing, causing melt backflow, affecting product quality, and causing defective products. However, there is currently no good test device to determine whether check ring is failed. SUMMARY
[0004] The utility model aims at the above-mentioned problems existing in the prior art and proposes a kind of mould for verifying injection molding machine check ring sealing performance. The technical problem to be solved by the utility model is to solve the problem of unable to judge the sealing reliability of check ring.
[0005] The purpose of the utility model can be realized by the following technical solutions:
[0006] A kind of mould for verifying injection molding machine check ring sealing performance, including fixed mould and movable mould with gate, characterized by, the fixed mould is provided with respectively recessed block-shaped filling groove and long strip-shaped pressure maintaining groove, the fixed mould is further provided with first exhaust groove and second exhaust groove, which penetrate through side wall and are respectively communicated with the filling groove and the pressure maintaining groove, the filling groove is respectively communicated with the gate and the pressure maintaining groove, and the filling groove and pressure maintaining groove are arranged in "T" shape.
[0007] In use, the block-shaped filling groove on the fixed mold and the block-shaped filling cavity between the movable mold form a block-shaped filling cavity, and the long strip-shaped pressure maintaining groove on the fixed mold and the long strip-shaped pressure maintaining cavity between the movable mold form a long strip-shaped pressure maintaining cavity. The injection molding machine injects melt into the sprue to simulate the injection molding process. In the filling cavity, the pressure required to overcome the melt backflow is greater than the pressure required to overcome the flow to the pressure maintaining cavity, so the melt will preferentially enter the pressure maintaining cavity. In the long strip-shaped pressure maintaining cavity, the pressure required to overcome the melt backflow is less than the pressure required to overcome the further flow to the pressure maintaining cavity, so the melt will preferentially backflow. If the resistance of the melt to further flow in the pressure maintaining cavity is greater than the resistance of the melt to backflow to the gap between the non-return ring and the screw, then backflow will immediately occur. After backflow, the melt will not further flow in the pressure maintaining cavity, so the length of the melt in the pressure maintaining cavity can be used to determine the sealing performance of the non-return ring. The first exhaust groove and the second exhaust groove can reduce the influence of exhaust resistance on the test results, ensure the accuracy of the test results, and thus solve the problem of being unable to determine the sealing reliability of the non-return ring.
[0008] Specifically, the smaller the length of the melt in the pressure maintaining cavity, the less melt enters the pressure maintaining cavity, the earlier the melt backflow, and the more severe the wear of the non-return ring. The larger the length of the melt in the pressure maintaining cavity, the more melt enters the pressure maintaining cavity, the later the melt backflow, and the less severe the wear of the non-return ring. Thus, the sealing reliability of the non-return ring can be determined by the mold, and the user can replace unqualified non-return rings in advance to avoid the occurrence of defective products.

The length of the melt entering the pressure maintaining groove during the test can be more intuitively observed, so the sealing performance of the non-return ring can be determined by the value of the scale mark.
[0011] In the mold for verifying the sealing performance of the non-return ring of the injection molding machine, the depth of the first exhaust groove on at least one side communicating with the filling groove is less than the depth of the filling groove, and the depth of the second exhaust groove on at least one side communicating with the pressure maintaining groove is less than the depth of the pressure maintaining groove. While exhausting, the melt is prevented from entering the first exhaust groove or the second exhaust groove.
[0012] In the mold for verifying sealing performance of the check ring of the injection molding machine, the first exhaust groove comprises a first air inlet section, a first communication section and a first exhaust section arranged in sequence, and depths of the three sections increase in sequence; the second exhaust groove comprises a second air inlet section, a second communication section and a second exhaust section arranged in sequence, and depths of the three sections increase in sequence. On the one hand, the melt can avoid entering the first exhaust groove or the second exhaust groove, and on the other hand, the narrow tube effect can be formed to better promote the gas in the mold to flow to the outside of the mold through the first exhaust groove or the second exhaust groove, so that the influence of the exhaust resistance on the test result can be reduced, thereby ensuring the accuracy of the test result.
[0013] In the mold for verifying sealing performance of the check ring of the injection molding machine, the first air inlet section is in a capillary tube shape and has a plurality of first air inlet sections, the first exhaust groove has two first exhaust grooves and is symmetrically arranged on both sides of the filling groove, the second air inlet section is in a capillary tube shape and has a plurality of second air inlet sections, and the second exhaust groove has two second exhaust grooves and is symmetrically arranged on both sides of the holding groove. The first air inlet section is in a capillary tube shape and has a plurality of first air inlet sections, and the second air inlet section is in a capillary tube shape and has a plurality of second air inlet sections, so that the melt can avoid entering the first exhaust groove and the second exhaust groove, the influence of the exhaust resistance on the test result can be better reduced, and the accuracy of the test result can be better ensured.
[0014] In the mold for verifying sealing performance of the check ring of the injection molding machine, the fixed mold further has a third exhaust groove penetrating through the side wall and communicating with the holding groove, the third exhaust groove is connected to an end of the holding groove away from the filling groove, the third exhaust groove comprises a third air inlet section and a third exhaust section arranged in sequence and having depths increasing in sequence, and the third air inlet section is in a capillary tube shape and has a plurality of third air inlet sections. By additionally arranging the third exhaust groove, uniform exhaust along the circumference of the mold can be realized by cooperation of the third exhaust groove, the first exhaust groove and the second exhaust groove, so that the influence of the exhaust resistance on the test result can be reduced to the minimum, and the test result can be more accurate.
[0015] In the mold for verifying sealing performance of the check ring of the injection molding machine, the fixed mold is connected to a mold temperature controller with a flow meter through a water pipe. By arranging the mold temperature controller, the test temperature of the fixed mold can be consistent in each test, so that the accuracy and repeatability of the verification result can be ensured.
[0016] Compared with the prior art, the mold for verifying sealing performance of the check ring of the injection molding machine has the advantages that when the mold is connected to the injection molding machine, the injection molding process can be simulated and the sealing reliability of the check ring can be judged, so that the seriously worn unqualified check ring can be replaced in advance, the appearance of defective products can be avoided, and the problem that the sealing reliability of the check ring cannot be judged can be solved.
