Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to an extrusion blow molding machine, and more particularly to an electric radial wall thickness control device in an extrusion blow molding machine. Background Technology
[0002] Most existing plastic products are manufactured using extrusion blow molding. The core component is the die head, which contains a flow divider. A flow divider channel exists between the flow divider and the die head. A die core is mounted on the flow divider, and an outlet channel connecting the die core and the die head is located between the die core and the die head. The extrusion process is as follows: molten plastic enters the die head through the inlet, is evenly distributed within the flow divider channel by the flow divider, and is extruded into the mold through the outlet channel between the die core and the die head under continuous pressure, ultimately forming the final product. To meet different wall thickness requirements, conventional solutions use hydraulic or pneumatic drive systems to adjust the gap between the die core and the die head to control wall thickness. However, this adjustment method is prone to gap control deviations due to system response lag and insufficient position feedback accuracy, resulting in decreased wall thickness uniformity and making it difficult to meet the process requirements of high-precision products.

[0020] The technical solution of this utility model will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and preferred embodiments.
[0021] like Figures 1-6As shown, the electric radial wall thickness control device in the extrusion blow molding machine of this utility model includes: a machine body 1, a die head 2 disposed on the machine body 1, a flow divider 21 disposed in the die head 2, a flow divider channel between the flow divider 21 and the die head 2, a die sleeve 3 slidably sleeved on the die head 2, a first shoulder 22 disposed on the die head 2, a liner 4 slidably sleeved on the die head 2, the liner 4 abutting and fixed against the first shoulder 22, a sliding sleeve 5 slidably sleeved on the die head 2, a retaining ring 6 clamped and fixed on the sliding sleeve 5, and the die sleeve 3 abutting against... On the sliding sleeve 5, a second shoulder 31 is provided on the mold sleeve 3, and a pressure ring 51 is fixedly provided on the bushing 6. The pressure ring 51 abuts against the second shoulder 31 of the mold sleeve 3. The mold sleeve 3 extends out of the pressure ring 51. A first heating ring 23 is fitted on the mold head 2. A second heating ring 52 is fitted on the bushing 6 and the pressure ring 51. A third heating ring 32 is fitted on the mold sleeve 3 that extends out of the pressure ring 51. The heating effect of the first heating ring 23, the second heating ring 52 and the third heating ring 32 can prevent the molten plastic from condensing during discharge. A mold core 24 is connected to the flow divider 21. The mold core 24 is located in the mold sleeve 3. A discharge channel connected to the flow divider is left between the mold core 24 and the mold sleeve 3. A tapered end 241 is provided on the mold core 24. A tapered hole 33 is provided on the mold sleeve 3. The tapered end 241 is located in the tapered hole 33. A variable channel connected to the discharge channel is left between the tapered end 241 and the tapered hole 33.
[0022] A Y-shaped bracket 7 is hinged to the liner plate 4. Two connecting plates 41 are symmetrically arranged at the left and right ends of the liner plate 4. A first pin 411 is fixed in the connecting plate 41. Two first bearing holes are symmetrically arranged on the left and right side walls of the Y-shaped bracket 7. A first bearing 71 is installed in the first bearing hole. The first pin 411 on the connecting plate 41 passes through the first bearing 71 on the same side. Two second bearing holes are symmetrically arranged on the left and right side walls of the Y-shaped bracket 7. A second bearing 72 is installed in the second bearing hole. Two guide rods 61 are symmetrically arranged on the left and right sides of the bushing ring 6. The guide rods 61 slide through the liner plate 4 and the connecting plate 41. A second pin 611 is fixed in the guide rod 61. The second pin 611 passes through the second bearing 72 on the same side. Four guide posts 42 are arranged around the liner plate 4. Four guide posts 42 are slidably inserted in the bushing 6. Limiting bolts 412 are threaded onto the connecting plate 41. When the Y-shaped bracket 7 rotates upward, it pulls the bushing 6 upward through the guide rod 61. When the bushing 6 moves upward, it drives the mold sleeve 3 and the sliding sleeve 5 to slide upward along the mold head 2, thereby reducing the gap of the variable channel between the tapered end 241 on the mold core 24 and the tapered hole 33 on the mold sleeve 3. When the Y-shaped bracket 7 rotates downward, it drives the mold head 3 to slide downward along the mold head 2, thereby increasing the gap of the variable channel. When the Y-shaped bracket 7 is not connected to the adjusting rod 9, the Y-shaped bracket 7 will rotate downward under its own weight and abut against the limiting bolts 412. The limiting bolts 412 limit the Y-shaped bracket 7 and prevent the sliding sleeve 5 from separating from the mold head 2 after the Y-shaped bracket 7 rotates downward excessively.
[0023] A servo cylinder 8 is mounted on the machine body 1, and a U-shaped connector 81 is mounted on the servo cylinder 8. A third pin 811 is fixed in the U-shaped connector 81. A U-shaped groove 73 is mounted on the Y-shaped bracket 7, and a fourth pin 731 is fixed in the U-shaped groove 73. An adjusting rod 9 is hinged between the third pin 811 and the fourth pin 731. The adjusting rod 9 includes a pull rod shaft 91 and a joint bearing 92. Screws 911 are mounted at both the upper and lower ends of the pull rod shaft 91. Two first planes 912 are symmetrically milled on the side wall of the pull rod shaft 91. The rod is held in place by a wrench. The two first planes 912 facilitate the screwing of the pull rod shaft 91. A screw hole is provided in the spherical bearing 92. Two second planes 921 are symmetrically milled on the side wall of the spherical bearing 92. The second planes 921 are clamped with a wrench to facilitate the screwing of the spherical bearing 92. The spherical bearing 92 is threaded onto both screws 911. A locking nut 93 is threaded onto the screw 911. The locking nut 93 is screwed and abuts against the spherical bearing 92. The two spherical bearings 92 on the pull rod shaft 91 are respectively fitted onto the third pin 811 and the fourth pin 731. After the two spherical bearings 92 are respectively fitted onto the third pin 811 and the fourth pin 731, the two first planes 912 on the pull rod shaft 91 are clamped with a wrench, and then the pull rod shaft 91 is screwed on. Through the threaded transmission, the spherical bearings 92 at both ends can be simultaneously contracted or lengthened, thereby adjusting the length of the adjusting rod 9. When adjusting the length of the adjusting rod 9, first contract the two spherical bearings 92 on the adjusting rod 9 to make the adjusting rod 9 in its shortest state. Then drive the servo cylinder 8 to the U-shaped connector 81 to the lowest position. Then, fit one of the spherical bearings 92 onto the third pin 811 in the U-shaped connector 81. The Y-shaped bracket 7 rotates under its own weight and abuts against the limit bolt 412. Then rotate the pull rod shaft 91 in the adjusting rod 9 to move the two spherical bearings 92 together. As the length of the adjustment rod increases, when the other joint bearing 92 on the adjustment rod 9 reaches the Y-shaped bracket 7, the joint bearing 92 is fitted onto the fourth pin 731 of the Y-shaped bracket 7. Then, the pull rod shaft 91 in the adjustment rod 9 is rotated in the opposite direction to retract the two joint bearings 92 synchronously. During synchronous retraction, since the U-shaped joint 81 is stationary, the adjustment rod 9 will pull the Y-shaped bracket 7 to rotate upward. When the Y-shaped bracket 7 rotates upward, it will drive the sliding sleeve 5 and the mold sleeve 3 to move upward along the mold head 2. When the mold sleeve 3 moves upward until the bottom wall of the mold sleeve 3 is flush with the bottom wall of the mold core 24, it means that the mold sleeve 3 has moved upward to the correct position. The length of the adjustment rod 9 is no longer adjusted. The locking nut 93 is screwed against the joint bearing 92 to lock the joint bearing 92, thereby fixing the length of the adjustment rod 9.
[0024] In use, the servo electric cylinder 8 controls the up-and-down rotation of the Y-shaped bracket 7 via the adjusting rod 9. The Y-shaped bracket 7 can then drive the mold sleeve 3 and the sliding sleeve 5 to slide up and down along the mold head 2 via the bushing 6, thereby changing the gap of the variable channel between the tapered end 241 on the mold core 24 and the tapered hole 33 on the mold sleeve 3. By changing the gap of the variable channel, different wall thickness requirements can be met. The servo electric cylinder 8 has a fast response speed and high operating accuracy, and can accurately control the gap of the variable channel between the mold sleeve 3 and the mold core 24, thereby changing the flow path of the molten plastic and the thickness distribution of the extruded preform, thus avoiding wall thickness differences caused by gravity sagging or uneven material flow.
[0025] In this embodiment, the first pin 411, the second pin 611, the third pin 811, and the fourth pin 731 all have the same structure. The first pin 411 includes a positioning plate 4111 and a shaft body 4112. Two countersunk holes 4113 are symmetrically arranged on the positioning plate 4111. The shaft body 4112 is vertically arranged on the positioning plate 4111 and has a chamfer 4113. After the shaft body 4112 on the first pin 411 passes through the connecting plate 41, the positioning plate 4111 on the first pin 411 abuts against the connecting plate 41. Then, it is connected to the connecting plate 41 by a countersunk bolt passing through the countersunk hole 4113. This facilitates the disassembly and assembly of the first pin 411 and ensures the connection stability between the first pin 411 and the connecting plate 41.
