Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of injection molding machine feeding mechanism, specifically a material feeding mechanism for an injection molding machine. Background Technology

[0002] Injection molding machines are the core equipment in plastic product manufacturing. They use plastic molds to transform thermoplastic or thermosetting plastics into various plastic products. The working principle of injection molding machines mainly utilizes the thermophysical properties of plastics. Material is added from the hopper into the barrel, which is heated by heating coils to melt the material. Then, through the rotation and pushing action of the screw, the molten material is injected into the mold cavity. After pressure holding, cooling, solidification and shaping, the mold opens, and the product is ejected through the ejection device.

[0003] The feeding mechanism pushes molten plastic into the mold, ensuring that the plastic melts evenly and is injected into the mold cavity. Most existing injection molding machines' material feeding mechanisms do not have the ability to remove dust mixed in the plastic particles, which reduces the quality of the injection molded product and is not conducive to the production and processing of injection molding machines.

Then, after the dust collection mechanism works, the dust is effectively sucked up and removed.

[0023] After the dust is sucked in, the filter plate mechanism can be opened to allow the cleaned plastic particles to enter the inner cavity of the storage box 23 for storage. This facilitates subsequent injection molding feeding, improves the quality of the finished injection molded parts, and benefits the production and processing of the injection molding machine.

[0024] The screw mechanism includes a reduction gearbox 5, a first motor 6, and a screw body 4. The screw body 4 is rotatably disposed in the inner cavity of the barrel 1.

The first motor 6 is fixedly connected to the surface of the reduction gearbox 5 and is fixedly connected to its input end.

[0025] After the plastic granules in the inner cavity of the storage bin 23 enter the inner cavity of the barrel 1, the granules are melted by the heating element 3, and then the screw body 4 is driven by the first motor 6 to rotate, so as to inject and transport the raw material to the injection molding machine.

[0026] A heat insulation sleeve 2 is fixedly connected to the surface of the material cylinder 1. The heat insulation sleeve 2 covers the outside of the heating element 3, and the heat insulation sleeve 2 shields and protects the heating element 3, thereby improving the safety of the device during use.

[0027] The filter plate mechanism includes two openings 12, two second motors 10, and two filter plates 11. The two openings 12 are respectively opened on one side and the other side of the top of the storage box 23 and are connected to the inner cavity of the dust collector 7.

[0029] After the second motor 10 drives the filter plate 11 to rotate, it can seal or open the inside of the opening 12, so that the plastic particles can be better dusted and then put into the inner cavity of the storage box 23.

[0030] A transmission box 13 is fixedly connected to the lower part of the front side of the dust collector 7. The front ends of the two rotating rods 14 extend into the inner cavity of the transmission box 13 and are fixedly connected to pulleys 15. The two pulleys 15 are connected by belt drive.

[0035] After the dust removal fan 18 starts working, it can generate negative pressure inside the dust collection disc 19, which will suck up the airflow containing dust and discharge it into the inner cavity of the filter bag 20. After the filter bag 20 collects the dust, it discharges the airflow.

[0036] Both sides of the dust collector 7 are fixedly connected to guide hoppers 9 that are compatible with the feed inlet 8. The guide hoppers 9 facilitate the feeding of plastic granules into the feed inlet 8.

[0037] During operation, the feed inlet 8 feeds plastic granules into the inner cavity of the dust collection box 7. The rotating rod 14 drives multiple pulleys 15 to rotate, which agitates the plastic granules, making the dust attached to the plastic granules more active. Then, the dust collection mechanism works to effectively suck up and remove the dust.
