Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of hot runner manifold technology, specifically to a hot runner manifold structure with uniform flow velocity. Background Technology

[0002] A hot runner manifold, also known as a manifold or hot runner distributor, has the main function of transferring the plastic melt configured by the injection molding machine through the main runner to the manifold. Then, through multiple flow branches within the manifold, it is evenly distributed to each injection nozzle and finally injected into the mold cavity. In this process, the manifold ensures that the temperature of the melt is constant and the flow length is consistent, so that the inside of the mold can be evenly filled by the melt.

[0003] The hot runner manifold structure includes a plate body with hot runner channels inside for conveying molten plastic. Heating wires are embedded around the plate body structure on the upper side to keep the plate body at a high temperature, preventing the molten plastic from solidifying and facilitating injection molding. However, the heating wires of existing hot runner manifolds are generally only embedded on one side of the plate body. This structure is prone to uneven heat distribution and low heating efficiency. Utility Model Content

[0004] The technical problem this invention aims to solve is that the heating wires of existing hot runner manifolds are generally only embedded on one side of the plate, which easily leads to uneven heat distribution and low heating efficiency.

[0005] To solve the above problems, the technical solution adopted by this utility model is a hot runner manifold structure with uniform flow velocity, including a plate body, a groove is formed on the side of the plate body, a heating wire is wound in the groove, a hot runner channel is formed inside the plate body, an inlet is formed on the upper side of the plate body at the middle of the hot runner channel, an outlet is formed on the lower side of the plate body at the end of the hot runner channel, a steam heating channel is formed inside the plate body, and an interface is fixed at both ends of the steam heating channel on one side of the plate body.

[0006] As a further embodiment of this utility model, grooves are formed on the upper and lower sides and four end faces of the plate to facilitate uniform heating of the plate.

[0007] As a further embodiment of this utility model: a steam supply pipe is connected to the interface, and a sealing sleeve is provided for the steam supply pipe and the outer side of the interface to be threaded and rotatably connected, so as to seal and connect the steam heating channel with the external steam generator.

[0008] As a further embodiment of this invention, the steam heating channel is located outside the hot flow channel to facilitate auxiliary heating of the hot flow channel and improve the heating efficiency of the plate.

[0009] As a further embodiment of this invention: the heating wire is electrically connected to an external power source, and the steam supply pipe is connected to an external steam generator.

[0010] Compared with the prior art, the advantages of this utility model are as follows: This application adds grooves wrapped around the upper and lower sides and four end faces of the plate to make the heating wire wrap around the plate structure, so that the plate is heated evenly, and adds steam heating channels to further improve the heating efficiency of the plate through high-temperature steam.
