Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of mold temperature control equipment, and more specifically, to a mobile automatic mold heating machine. Background Technology

[0002] Currently, in the injection molding process, a portable thermocouple mold temperature controller is needed to regulate the temperature of the mold. The thermocouple mold temperature controller, through the cooperation of thermocouple probes, temperature controllers, and heaters, can quickly adjust the temperature of the injection mold to a suitable temperature (specifically, the thermocouple probes and heaters are first connected to the mold, then the temperature controller senses the mold temperature through the thermocouple probes and controls the automatic switching of the heaters according to the set temperature value to achieve automatic adjustment of the mold temperature). The heat is then conducted to the internal injection molded parts, ensuring the uniform internal structure of the injection molded products and improving the quality of the injection molded products.

[0003] However, if the probe of a thermocouple mold temperature controller short-circuits or malfunctions, its temperature detection will fail, and the temperature controller will not receive a signal. Consequently, it will be unable to accurately control the heater's running time, which can easily lead to overheating of the mold. If the mold temperature rises, the temperature of the injection molded parts inside the mold will also rise above the preset standard value, resulting in the quality of subsequent injection molded products not meeting production requirements and an increased defect rate. Thermocouple mold temperature controllers lack dual temperature monitoring measures, and their effectiveness needs to be improved. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this utility model is to solve the problems mentioned in the background art and to propose a mobile automatic mold heating machine.

[0005] The technical solution adopted by this utility model to solve its technical problem is:

[0006] A mobile automatic mold heating machine includes a thermocouple mold temperature controller body. The thermocouple mold temperature controller body includes a controller and a probe, a temperature controller, and a heater electrically connected to the controller. It also includes a temperature probe, a magnet, and an alarm.

[0007] The temperature probe is connected to the temperature controller via a wire, and the temperature probe is electrically connected to the controller.

[0008] A magnet is placed on the temperature probe, and the bottom surface of the magnet is flush with the bottom surface of the temperature probe so that the temperature probe contacts the mold surface;

[0009] The alarm is installed on the thermocouple mold temperature controller and is electrically connected to the controller.

[0010] Furthermore, the thermocouple mold temperature controller body is respectively provided with a first holder and a second holder that cooperate with the probe and the temperature probe.

[0011] The above solution uses the first and second mounting brackets to limit the position of the probe and temperature probe during the transfer of the thermocouple mold temperature controller without heating the injection mold, thus preventing them from shaking.

[0012] Furthermore, the thermocouple mold temperature controller body is equipped with a display screen that is electrically connected to the controller.

[0013] The above solution can display the mold temperature value in real time during the injection mold heating process via a display screen.

[0014] Furthermore, both the probe and the temperature probe are resistance temperature probes.

[0015] In the above scheme, the resistance temperature probe uses analog signals and is therefore not affected by magnets.

[0016] Furthermore, the thermocouple mold temperature controller body includes a base and a mounting box. The base is equipped with casters and telescopic components, and the telescopic components are connected to the mounting box.

[0017] The above solution allows for adjustment of the mounting box height via telescopic components, facilitating the connection of probes and temperature probes with injection molds of different heights. Additionally, when the thermocouple mold temperature controller is not in operation, its volume can be reduced, thereby minimizing its space requirements.

[0018] Furthermore, the connecting wires between the probe and the temperature controller are provided with a flexible protective sleeve.

[0019] Furthermore, the connecting wires between the temperature probe and the temperature controller are also equipped with flexible protective sleeves.

[0020] The above solution can protect the wires from external wear by adding a flexible protective sleeve, thereby effectively extending the service life of the connecting wires between the two probes and the temperature controller.

[0021] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0022] Compared to existing technologies, when the probe experiences a short circuit or other malfunction, the controller of this device immediately stops the probe. Simultaneously, the temperature probe starts and the alarm sounds. Subsequently, the temperature probe monitors the injection mold temperature in real time and feeds it back to the temperature controller. The temperature controller then controls the heater to adjust the temperature. This avoids the problem of increased defect rates in injection molded products caused by probe temperature detection failure. By implementing dual temperature monitoring measures, the thermocouple mold temperature controller achieves better performance. Attached Figure Description

[0026] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present utility model, and not all of them. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of the present utility model without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present utility model. The present utility model will be further described with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments:

[0027] like Figure 1 As shown, a mobile automatic mold heating machine includes a thermocouple mold temperature controller body 1. The thermocouple mold temperature controller body 1 includes a controller and a probe 11, a temperature controller, and a heater electrically connected to the controller. It also includes a temperature probe 21, a magnet 22, and an alarm 24.

[0028] Temperature probe 21 is connected to the temperature controller via a wire, and temperature probe 21 is electrically connected to the controller;

[0029] Magnet 22 is placed on temperature probe 21 and the bottom surface of magnet 22 is flush with the bottom surface of temperature probe 21 so that temperature probe 21 contacts the mold surface (Optimization of the scheme: both probe 11 and temperature probe 21 are resistance temperature probes 21, and resistance temperature probe 21 uses analog signals so that it is not affected by magnet 22).

[0030] Alarm 24 is installed on the thermocouple mold temperature controller body 1 and is electrically connected to the controller.

[0031] Further refinements of the embodiments of this utility model, such as... Figure 1 As shown, the thermocouple mold temperature controller body 1 is provided with a first retainer 12 and a second retainer 23 that cooperate with the probe 11 and the temperature probe 21 respectively; the first retainer 12 and the second retainer 23 can limit the position of the probe 11 and the temperature probe 21 during the transfer of the thermocouple mold temperature controller without heating the injection mold, so as to prevent the two from shaking.

[0032] Further refinements of the embodiments of this utility model, such as... Figure 1 As shown, the thermocouple mold temperature controller body 1 is equipped with a display screen 3 that is electrically connected to the controller; the display screen 3 can display the mold temperature value in real time during the injection mold heating process.

[0033] The working process of this utility model:

[0034] When probe 11 is working normally, the temperature controller can receive the signal. However, when probe 11 is short-circuited or damaged due to other faults, the temperature controller will lose the signal. At this time, the temperature controller will send a signal to the controller, which will then stop probe 11. Simultaneously, it will control temperature probe 21 and alarm 24 to work. Temperature probe 21 is stably attached to the injection mold by magnet 22 before the thermocouple mold temperature controller is started. When magnet 22 contacts the injection mold, temperature probe 21 will then contact the surface of the injection mold. (It should be noted that temperature probe 21 only starts working after probe 11 fails and stops working.) Alarm 24 can immediately prompt the staff to quickly remove and replace probe 11. During this process, temperature probe 21 can ensure that the normal temperature regulation and detection process of the mold is not affected. After the replacement of probe 11 is completed, the controller will first restore the operation of probe 11. At this time, the temperature controller will receive the signal from probe 11 again and send a signal to the controller. Then, the controller will stop temperature probe 21.

[0035] Compared to existing technologies, when probe 11 experiences a short circuit or other malfunction, the controller of the thermocouple mold temperature controller 1 immediately stops probe 11. Simultaneously, temperature probe 21 starts and alarm 24 sounds. Subsequently, temperature probe 21 monitors the injection mold temperature in real time and feeds it back to the temperature controller. The temperature controller then controls the heater to adjust the temperature. This avoids the problem of increased defect rate of injection molded products caused by probe 11 temperature detection failure. By setting up dual temperature monitoring measures, the thermocouple mold temperature controller achieves better performance.

[0036] In some embodiments, such as Figure 1 As shown, the thermocouple mold temperature controller body 1 includes a base and a mounting box. The base and mounting box are not numbered in the figure. The base is equipped with casters and a telescopic component 4. The telescopic component 4 is connected to the mounting box. In this embodiment, the height of the mounting box can be adjusted by the telescopic component 4, which facilitates the connection of the probe 11 and the temperature probe 21 with injection molds of different heights. In addition, when the thermocouple mold temperature controller body 1 is not working, its volume can be reduced, thereby reducing its space occupation.

[0037] In other embodiments, a flexible protective sleeve is provided on the outside of the connecting wire between probe 11 and the thermostat, and a flexible protective sleeve is also provided on the outside of the connecting wire between temperature probe 21 and the thermostat. The flexible protective sleeve is not shown in the figure. This embodiment can protect the wire from external wear by adding a flexible protective sleeve, thereby effectively extending the service life of the connecting wire between the two probes 11 and the thermostat.

[0038] The foregoing has shown and described the basic principles, main features, and advantages of this utility model. Those skilled in the art should understand that this utility model is not limited to the above embodiments. The descriptions of the above embodiments and specifications are merely illustrative of the principles of this utility model. Various changes and modifications can be made to this utility model without departing from its spirit and scope, and all such changes and modifications fall within the scope of protection claimed by this utility model. The scope of protection of this utility model is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
