AI Technical Summary
In existing injection nozzle structures, the flow rates inside the two injection channels are prone to differ, leading to insufficient mixing of the two colors of plastic and uneven color mixing.
A needle valve nozzle for precision color mixing injection molding was designed, including an outer nozzle and an inner nozzle. The inner nozzle has a vertical first color flow channel and an annular groove. The second color flow channel is split by the annular groove and the strip groove and then mixed with the first color flow channel. The mixed melt is injected into the mold through the injection port. The inner nozzle is equipped with a needle valve to control the flow and block the melt. The top of the outer nozzle is equipped with a placement groove and an annular edge to fix the inner nozzle. The gap between the inner and outer nozzles gradually narrows to improve the flow rate and mixing effect.
This allows for thorough mixing of two colors of molten plastic inside the nozzle, ensuring uniform color mixing and improving the color consistency of injection molded products.

The molten liquid in the first color flow channel can directly flow to the glue inlet at the bottom. The molten liquid in the second color flow channel fills the annular groove first, and then flows vertically into each strip-shaped groove after being divided by the annular groove. The second color molten liquid collects at the bottom of the strip-shaped groove and mixes with the first color molten liquid. The mixed molten liquid is sprayed from the glue inlet and injected into the molding cavity arranged in the mold. After the molding cavity is filled, the mold is rapidly cooled.

The junction is the mixing position of the first color molten liquid and the second color molten liquid. After the gap is filled, the second color molten liquid can flow into the junction in a ring shape and mix with the first color molten liquid, so that the mixing of the molten liquids of two colors is more sufficient.
[0011] In the above-mentioned precision color mixing injection needle valve nozzle, the top of the second color flow channel is provided with a connected flow regulating hole. An adjusting mechanism is arranged inside the flow regulating hole. The adjusting mechanism can block the second color flow channel. The adjusting mechanism can reciprocate longitudinally in the flow regulating hole to block the second color flow channel, thereby controlling the flow rate of the molten liquid inside the second color flow channel.
