[0041] The following is for reference. Figures 1 to 10 Describes a mold temperature controller according to an embodiment of the present invention.

[0042] like Figures 1 to 3As shown, the mold temperature controller according to an embodiment of the present invention includes a frame, a circulating heat exchange component, and a control box assembly 300. The frame is provided with a main housing 110; the circulating heat exchange component is disposed inside the main housing 110; the control box assembly 300 is detachably installed on the main housing 110, and the control box assembly 300 is hung on the main housing 110 from top to bottom through a hanging mechanism. The control box assembly 300 and the main housing 110 are connected by a detachable fastening mechanism to restrict the upward movement of the control box assembly 300 relative to the main housing 110.

[0043] The control box assembly 300 can be detached and installed through the mounting mechanism and fastening mechanism, which facilitates the maintenance and replacement of electronic components inside the control box assembly 300.

[0044] Specifically, the control box assembly 300 contains electronic components. When installing the control box assembly 300, the mounting mechanism is used to hang the control box assembly 300 from top to bottom onto the main box 110 to temporarily fix the control box assembly 300. Then, the fastening mechanism is used to fix the control box assembly 300 to the main box 110, thus completing the installation of the control box assembly 300. When disassembling, the fastening mechanism is unlocked, and the control box assembly 300 can be taken out upwards.

[0045] In practical implementation, the control box assembly 300 can be used as a whole module. When the electronic components of the mold temperature controller malfunction, the control box assembly 300 can be replaced as a whole on the production site, so that the mold temperature controller can be put into production quickly. The faulty control box assembly 300 can be transferred to another location for repair, which can avoid production line stoppage and ensure production efficiency.

[0046] For small mold temperature controllers, the control box assembly 300 can be disassembled and assembled manually. For large mold temperature controllers, the control box assembly 300 can be disassembled and assembled with the help of hoisting equipment.

[0047] like Figure 2 , Figure 3 As shown, in some embodiments of this utility model, the control box assembly 300 includes a back plate 310, the mounting mechanism includes downwardly extending hooks 301 disposed on both sides of the back plate 310, the main box 110 includes a front plate 111, the front plate 111 is provided with a hanging hole 302 for the hooks 301 to be inserted and moved downward, and the control box assembly 300 is mounted to the front plate 111 of the main box 110 by the cooperation of the hooks 301 and the hanging hole 302.

[0048] Specifically, the hook 301 protrudes backward from the back plate 310 and extends downward. When the hook 301 is aligned with the hanging hole 302, the hook 301 is inserted backward into the hanging hole 302 and moves downward, so that the hook 301 is hung on the hole wall plate of the hanging hole 302.

[0049] It is understood that in some embodiments of this utility model, the mounting mechanism may also be a pin provided on the back plate 310 and extending rearward, and a corresponding pin hole is provided on the front plate 111. The pin hole is set to be larger than the outer diameter of the pin so as to facilitate the insertion of the pin into the pin hole. The control box assembly 300 can also be temporarily fixed by the cooperation between the pin and the pin hole.

[0050] like Figure 2 , Figure 3 As shown, in some embodiments of this utility model, the frame includes a bottom support plate 120, and the main housing 110 is disposed above the bottom support plate 120. When the control box assembly 300 is hung on the main housing 110 by the hanging mechanism, there is a gap between the bottom of the control box assembly 300 and the bottom support plate 120, that is, the bottom of the control box assembly 300 is suspended, so that the weight of the control box assembly 300 mainly acts on the front plate 111 of the main housing 110 when it is hung, which improves the stability during hanging. After the subsequent fastening mechanism is tightened, the connection between the control box assembly 300 and the main housing 110 is also relatively stable and reliable. At the same time, the suspended control box assembly 300 is also conducive to heat dissipation or heat insulation, so as to reduce the heat accumulation of the control box assembly 300.

[0051] In some embodiments of this utility model, a column structure is provided at the front plate 111 of the main housing 110 to improve the stability of the control box assembly 300 installation.

[0052] like Figure 2 , Figure 3 As shown, in some embodiments of this utility model, mounting positions corresponding to the control box assembly 300 are formed at the front of the main housing 110 and above the bottom support plate 120 to improve the compactness of the mechanism.

[0053] like, Figure 1 Figure 2 , Figure 3 As shown, in some embodiments of this utility model, the control box assembly 300 further includes a panel 320 and two side panels 330. When the control box assembly 300 is mounted to the main box 110 by the mounting mechanism, the lower edges of the panel 320 and the two side panels 330 extend to the side of the bottom support plate 120 to cover the gap between the bottom of the control box assembly 300 and the bottom support plate 120, so as to prevent foreign objects from entering the gap.

[0054] In some embodiments of this utility model, there is a gap between the lower edge of the panel 320 and the two side plates 330 and the side of the bottom support plate 120, so that the gap between the bottom of the control box assembly 300 and the bottom support plate 120 can communicate with the outside, and has a certain heat dissipation effect.

[0055] like Figure 2 , Figure 3As shown, in some embodiments of this utility model, the control box assembly 300 includes a back plate 310, the back plate 310 is provided with a mounting hole 303, the main box 110 includes a front plate 111, the front plate 111 is provided with a connecting hole 304 corresponding to the mounting hole 303, and the fastening mechanism is a bolt mechanism (not shown in the figure) passing through the mounting hole 303 and the connecting hole 304, thereby realizing the fastening connection between the control box assembly 300 and the main box 110.

[0056] It is understood that in some embodiments of this utility model, the fastening mechanism may also be a cam clamping mechanism, a lever clamping mechanism, a pneumatic clamping mechanism, a hydraulic clamping mechanism, a magnetic clamping mechanism, a spring clamping mechanism, etc., which will not be described in detail here.

[0057] like Figure 3 As shown, in some embodiments of this utility model, the connecting hole 304 is an elongated hole extending in the vertical direction to eliminate the influence of processing or assembly errors and facilitate the installation of the bolt mechanism.

[0058] like Figure 4 As shown, in some embodiments of this utility model, the control box assembly 300 includes a back plate 310, the front end of which is used to install electronic devices. The two sides of the back plate 310 are bent backward to form support feet 311, so that the cross-section of the back plate 310 has an inverted U-shaped structure. The main box 110 includes a front plate 111, and the support feet 311 abut against the front plate 111. The support feet 311 form a hollow structure between the middle part of the back plate 310 and the front plate 111, thereby reducing the occurrence of heat transfer from the main box 110 to the control box assembly 300.

[0059] like Figure 4 As shown, in some embodiments of this utility model, the width of the back plate 310 is smaller than the width of the front plate 111, so that the support foot 311 is recessed relative to the side of the main housing 110, so that a concave isolation groove 305 can be formed at the junction of the control box assembly 300 and the main housing 110, thereby preventing the support foot 311 from being formed on the outer surface of the mold temperature controller and improving safety.

[0060] Specifically, electronic components are installed on the back plate 310, and the operating voltage is relatively high. The isolation groove 305 ensures that the support foot 311 is a certain distance from the outer surface of the mold temperature controller, thereby increasing the creepage distance and improving safety.

[0061] In some embodiments of this utility model, an insulating element is provided between the side plate 330 and the back plate 310 of the control box assembly 300 to reduce the occurrence of leakage current in the outer casing of the control box assembly 300.

[0062] like Figure 4As shown, in some embodiments of this utility model, the two sides of the main housing 110 extend forward to form shielding portions 112 that can shield the isolation groove 305, so as to prevent the support feet 311 from being directly exposed and improve safety.

[0063] In some embodiments of this utility model, the side panel of the main housing 110 is an insulating board, the shielding part 112 is part of the side panel of the main housing 110, and the front panel 111 of the main housing 110 is located between the two side panels to form an electrical isolation structure.

[0064] like Figures 5 to 8 As shown, in some embodiments of this utility model, the circulating heat exchange assembly includes a heater 210. The heater 210 is installed to the inner side of the main housing 110 via a mounting bracket 220, and a gap is formed between the heater 210 and the inner wall of the main housing 110 to isolate the heater 210 from the outer shell of the main housing 110, reduce the temperature of the outer shell of the main housing 110, and reduce the occurrence of burns.

[0065] like Figure 5 As shown, in some embodiments of this utility model, the circulating heat exchange assembly includes a heater 210, a condenser 230, and a circulating pump 240. The medium enters the condenser 230 through the input interface, is cooled, and then enters the heater 210 to be heated to the set temperature before being sent out. The circulating pump 240 is used to drive the flow of the medium.

[0066] like Figure 6 , Figure 7 , Figure 8 As shown, in some embodiments of this utility model, a crossbeam 113 is provided on the inner side of the main housing 110, the outer shell of the main housing 110 is provided on the outer side of the crossbeam 113, and the mounting bracket 220 is installed on the inner side of the crossbeam 113, thereby isolating the heater 210 from the outer shell of the main housing 110.

[0067] like Figure 6 , Figure 7 , Figure 8 As shown, in some embodiments of this utility model, the mounting bracket 220 has an L-shaped structure, including a lower extension 221 that extends in the vertical direction and is connected to the inner side of the crossbeam 113, and a mounting part 222 that is disposed at the lower end of the lower extension 221 and extends to the inner side of the main housing 110. The heater 210 is installed to the mounting part 222, so that a gap is formed between the heater 210 and the outer shell of the main housing 110, forming a heat insulation area.

[0068] like Figure 9 As shown, in some embodiments of this utility model, multiple sets of spaced reinforcing ribs 223 are provided between the lower extension 221 and the mounting part 222 to enhance the structural strength of the mounting frame 220.

[0069] like Figure 9As shown, in some embodiments of this utility model, the reinforcing ribs 223 are plate-shaped structures and are spaced apart, which increases the surface area of ​​the mounting bracket 220, giving it a certain heat dissipation effect and reducing heat accumulation.

[0070] like Figure 10 As shown, in some embodiments of this utility model, the lower extension 221 is provided with a concave-convex structure extending in the vertical direction, which can improve the structural strength of the mounting bracket 220 and increase the heat dissipation area.

[0071] It is understood that in some embodiments of this utility model, the mounting bracket 220 may also be a vertical plate to which the heater 210 is mounted laterally.

[0072] Of course, this invention is not limited to the above-described embodiments.
