Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of plastic molding technology, and in particular to a nozzle for hot runners. Background Technology

[0002] Hot runner technology is widely used in plastic injection molding to improve production efficiency and product quality. It has applications across multiple industries. In the automotive industry, it's used to produce automotive parts such as headlight covers and dashboards. Hot runner systems optimize the injection molding process, reduce part weight without compromising performance. In the home appliance industry, it's used to produce appliance casings and internal structural components, improving production efficiency and product quality. In the medical industry, it's used to produce high-precision medical devices such as syringes and tubing, ensuring product hygiene and safety while maintaining production efficiency. In the daily chemical packaging industry, it's used to produce plastic bottles, cans, and hoses, improving production efficiency and reducing material waste. Due to its advantages such as improved injection molding efficiency, reduced material waste, and shorter molding cycles, hot runner technology is gradually becoming a popular development direction in the injection molding industry.

[0003] Traditional nozzles often have poor sealing, which can cause molten plastic to leak from the interface between the nozzle and the runner plate / mold, leading to material waste, equipment damage, and even affecting the safety of the production environment. Poor sealing can also cause pressure fluctuations inside the nozzle, affecting the flow and filling effect of the plastic, resulting in defects in the molded product, such as short shots, bubbles, and shrinkage. Poor sealing can also lead to heat loss, causing unstable internal temperature of the nozzle, affecting the fluidity of the plastic, prolonging the molding cycle, and causing temperature differences in different areas inside the nozzle, which can lead to uneven plastic flow, affecting the quality of the molded product. Localized excessively high temperatures may cause plastic degradation, while localized excessively low temperatures may cause plastic solidification. Therefore, a hot runner nozzle is needed to improve the above problems. Summary of the Invention

Detailed Implementation

[0024] The technical solution of this utility model will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.

[0025] like Figures 1 to 4 As shown, a hot runner nozzle includes a body 1, a nozzle assembly 2 is disposed on the top of the body 1, and a sealing assembly 3 is disposed on the top of the nozzle assembly 2.

[0026] like Figure 1 , Figure 3 and Figure 4As shown, the nozzle assembly 2 includes a connecting plate 201, to which a nozzle chamber 202 is fixedly connected. A temperature sensor 203 is mounted on the side of the nozzle chamber 202, and an electric heater is installed inside the nozzle chamber 202. The sealing assembly 3 includes a connecting pipe 301, to which an elastic sealing ring 302 is provided on the side. The elastic sealing ring 302 is provided with a sealing gasket 303. By using the combined sealing structure of the elastic sealing ring 302 and the sealing gasket 303 between the nozzle chamber 202 and the connecting pipe 301, material leakage can be ensured. This double sealing structure can effectively prevent molten plastic from leaking from the interface between the nozzle and the runner plate and the mold. The elastic sealing ring 302 can automatically adjust the pressure of the sealing contact surface when the internal pressure of the nozzle changes, ensuring a good sealing effect under different working conditions. The sealing gasket 303 usually has high mechanical strength and stability, and can maintain its shape and performance under high temperature and high pressure environments, further enhancing the reliability of the seal.

[0027] The nozzle chamber 202 has a color-changing channel inside. A quick connector 204 is fixedly connected to the top of the nozzle chamber 202, which communicates with the color-changing channel. A nozzle core is installed inside the nozzle chamber 202, and the color-changing channel is connected to the flow channel of the nozzle core. An electric heater is connected to an external power source, and a temperature sensor 203 monitors the internal temperature of the nozzle chamber 202 in real time. The elastic sealing ring 302 and the sealing gasket 303 are both made of rubber. A retaining ring 304 is fixedly connected to the top of the connecting pipe 301, and a nozzle head 305 is fixedly connected to the top of the retaining ring 304. The temperature sensor 203 can monitor the temperature changes inside the nozzle chamber 202 in real time. This high-precision monitoring ensures the accuracy of temperature control. By adjusting the power of the electric heater through an external power source, it can quickly respond to temperature changes and adjust the heating power in time to ensure that the internal temperature of the nozzle chamber 202 is always kept within the set range. Precise temperature control can effectively reduce the temperature fluctuation inside the nozzle chamber 202, ensuring that the plastic maintains good fluidity during injection, thereby improving the quality and consistency of the molded product.

[0028] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the main body 1 includes a nozzle seat 101, which has an internal thread 102. The internal thread 102 is connected to a threaded rod 104. The top of the threaded rod 104 is fixedly connected to a connecting seat 103.

[0029] The working process of this utility model is as follows: When a hot runner nozzle designed using this solution is in operation, the nozzle body can be threadedly connected and fixed to the nozzle seat 101 using the built-in thread 102 and threaded rod 104. An elastic sealing ring 302 and a sealing gasket 303 are installed. An external color-changing device is connected through a quick connector 204. The electric heater is started to raise the internal temperature of the nozzle to the material's flow temperature. Then, the old color material is discharged through the color-changing channel, and a new color material is injected. During the color-changing process, the elastic sealing ring 302 and the sealing gasket 303 ensure that the material does not leak. The temperature sensor 203 monitors the temperature in real time. The power of the electric heater is adjusted by an external power supply to achieve precise control of the internal temperature of the nozzle chamber 202.
