Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of welding technology, specifically to a welding device for plastic parts. Background Technology
[0002] Hot plate welding is a welding process that uses heating elements to heat plastic parts to a molten state, and then joins the molten plastic parts together under pressure. Its main steps include: heating, welding, and cooling. With the widespread application of plastic products in automobiles, home appliances, medical devices, and other fields, higher demands are placed on the welding quality and efficiency of plastic parts. Hot plate welding, as a reliable welding process, can meet these requirements. Advances in heating technology, temperature control technology, and automation control technology have continuously improved the performance of hot plate welding machines, enabling more precise temperature control and a more efficient welding process.
[0003] Hot plate welding is a widely used process for joining plastic parts, but it also has some drawbacks and limitations. Hot plate welding requires heating the plastic parts to a molten state and then cooling them to solidify, a process that is time-consuming. Small plastic parts typically require 15 to 30 seconds, while large plastic parts may require several minutes. Because of the time needed to wait for the plastic parts to melt and cool, the welding cycle is relatively long, resulting in relatively low welding efficiency. Plastic residue easily adheres to the hot plate, and the hot plate is prone to wear and requires regular replacement. Utility Model Content
[0004] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, a welding apparatus for plastic parts is provided to address the issues raised in the background art.
[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the technical solution adopted by this utility model is as follows: a welding device for plastic parts, comprising a platform and an upper top plate, with a left welding station and a right welding station respectively arranged below the upper top plate, a plurality of guide columns fixedly installed between the upper top plate and the platform, cylinder one fixedly installed on both sides of the top of the upper top plate, a piston rod one arranged inside the cylinder one, the lower end of the piston rod one penetrating the upper top plate and fixedly connected to a connecting block one, the lower end of the connecting block one fixedly connected to an upper template, a plurality of cooling fans fixedly installed on the side of the upper template, a lower mold arranged below the heating mechanism, a lower template fixedly connected to the bottom of the lower mold, a cylinder two fixedly installed at the bottom of the platform, a piston rod two arranged inside the cylinder two, the upper end of the piston rod two penetrating the platform and fixedly connected to a connecting block two, the upper end of the piston rod two fixedly connected to the lower template through the connecting block two, and a control terminal arranged on one side of the platform.

The heating plate is fixedly mounted on the top of the support plate, and the first motor drives the first lead screw to move the heating plate along the first guide rail.
[0007] Preferably, a plurality of pre-clamping fixtures are installed on opposite sides of the upper and lower templates, and a positioning block is installed on one side of each pre-clamping fixture, with the pre-clamping fixtures and positioning blocks spaced apart.

[0017] The following description is intended to disclose the present invention so that those skilled in the art can implement it. The preferred embodiments described below are merely examples, and other obvious variations will occur to those skilled in the art.
[0018] Reference Figure 1-3As shown, this utility model provides a technical solution: a welding device for plastic parts, including a platform 1 and an upper top plate 2. A left welding station 3 and a right welding station 4 are respectively arranged below the upper top plate 2. Several guide columns 5 are fixedly installed between the upper top plate 2 and the platform 1. Cylinders 6 are fixedly installed on both sides of the top of the upper top plate 2. A piston rod 601 is installed inside the cylinder 6. The lower end of the piston rod 601 passes through the upper top plate 2 and is fixedly connected to a connecting block 7. The lower end of the connecting block 7 is fixedly connected to an upper template 8. The connecting block 7 connects the components together to form a stable frame. The structure ensures equipment operation. An upper mold 9 is fixedly installed below the upper template 8. A cylinder 6 drives the upper template 8, connected to the upper mold 9, to move up and down along the guide column 5. A heating mechanism 10 is installed below the upper mold 9. The heating mechanism 10 includes a heating plate 17, a support plate 18, a first lead screw 19, a mounting block 20, a first guide rail 21, and a first motor 22. A pulley 23 is fixedly connected to the output end of the first motor 22. The pulley 23 is connected to the first lead screw 19 above it via belt drive. The first lead screw 19 is threadedly connected to the mounting block 20 on its surface. When heating begins, the first motor... Machine 22 drives the first lead screw 19 to rotate synchronously via pulley 23. The first lead screw 19 drives the mounting block 20, connected to the support plate 18, to slide along the first guide rail 21 between the left welding station 3 and the right welding station 4. The top of the mounting block 20 is fixedly connected to the support plate 18, and the lower end of the mounting block 20 is slidably connected to the first guide rail 21. A heating plate 17 is fixedly mounted on the top of the support plate 18. The support plate 18 and the heating plate 17 mounted on it can approach or move away from the upper mold 9 and the lower mold 12. The heating plate 17 is made of aluminum alloy or ceramic, and its interior is evenly distributed. The upper mold 9 is equipped with heating wires and heating plates 17, which heat the plastic parts inside the upper mold 9 until they are molten. One heating plate 17 slides along the first guide rail 21 between two welding stations. After heating one plastic part, it can slide to another workpiece for heating, reducing the number of heating plates. The first motor 22 drives the first lead screw 19 to move the heating plate 17 along the first guide rail 21, allowing for more efficient use of the heat from the heating plates and reducing their idle time. Multiple cooling fans 11 are fixedly installed on one side of the upper mold 8; there are four cooling fans 11. The cooling fans 11 are activated after welding is completed.After the plastic parts are welded, the heat from the weld is removed by the cooling fan 11, shortening the cooling time of the plastic parts, rapidly reducing the temperature of the weld area, and allowing the plastic material to cool and solidify quickly, thus improving welding efficiency. Below the heating mechanism 10 is a lower mold 12, with a lower template 13 fixedly connected to the bottom of the lower mold 12. A guide post 5 passes through the upper template 8 and the lower template 13, and its surface is slidably connected to the upper template 8 and the lower template 13. The upper template 8 and the lower template 13 move up and down along the guide post 5. Several pre-clamping fixtures 24 are installed on opposite sides of the upper template 8 and the lower template 13. A positioning block 25 is installed on one side of each pre-clamping fixture 24, spaced apart. At the left welding station 3, the plastic parts are clamped between the upper mold 9 and the lower mold 12. The position of the plastic parts is restricted by the pre-clamping fixtures 24 and the positioning blocks 25. The main function of the pre-clamping fixtures 24 is to pre-fix the plastic parts during processing or molding, preventing them from shifting during processing. The plastic part moves or deforms, and its edge or specific part fits tightly against the positioning block 25, restricting its horizontal movement. A cylinder 2 14 is fixedly installed at the bottom of platform 1. Cylinder 2 14 drives the lower template 13 to move up and down along the guide column 5. A piston rod 2 1401 is installed inside cylinder 2 14. The upper end of piston rod 2 1401 passes through platform 1 and is fixedly connected to connecting block 2 15. Piston rod 2 1401 is fixedly connected to the lower template 13 through connecting block 2 15. A control terminal 16 is installed on one side of platform 1. The control terminal 16 controls the support plate 18 to move alternately between the two welding workpieces. The control terminal 16 uses a PLC to control its digital output module to output PWM signals to control the first motor 22. For cylinders 1 6 and 2 14, the extension and retraction of the cylinders are controlled by energizing and de-energizing the solenoid valve coils. The control terminal 16 also has an alternating welding logic program for the left welding station 3 and the right welding station 4, and a single-station locking welding logic program.
[0019] The usage process of this utility model is as follows: The support plate 18, together with the heating plate 17 installed on it, can approach or move away from the upper mold 9 and the lower mold 12. When heating begins, the first motor 22 drives the first lead screw 19 to rotate synchronously through the pulley 23. The first lead screw 19 drives the mounting block 20, connected to the support plate 18, to slide along the first guide rail 21 between the left welding station 3 and the right welding station 4. The control terminal 16 controls the support plate 18 to move alternately between the two welding workpieces. First, at the left welding station 3, the plastic part is clamped into the upper mold 9 and the lower mold 12. The position of the plastic part is restricted by the pre-clamping fixture 24 and the positioning block 25. Then, the cylinder 6 drives the upper template 8, connected to the upper mold 9, to move downward along the guide post 5. The control terminal 16 is used to synchronously control the two solenoid valves. The control terminal 16 simultaneously... Output two identical control signals to ensure that the on / off actions of the two solenoid valves are synchronized, the signals are synchronized, the timing of the control signals is consistent, and the cylinder 16 and cylinder 214 extend and retract synchronously. The heating plate 17 heats the plastic parts in the upper mold 9 to make them melt. Then, cylinder 16 drives the upper template 8 to move upward. The control terminal 16 drives the support plate 18 and the heating plate 17 to move to the right welding station 4. Cylinder 16 on the left welding station 3 drives the upper template 8 to move downward. Cylinder 214 drives the lower template 13 to move upward along the guide column 5, so that the two plastic parts are welded together. Perform the same operation on the right welding station 4. After the welding is completed, start the cooling fan 11 to accelerate the cooling of the welding part. Then, remove the welding workpiece and place the plastic part on the left welding station 3 in advance. After the right welding station 4 completes the welding, repeat the operation.
[0020] In summary, the advantages of this utility model are as follows: using one hot plate to act on two welding stations can make more efficient use of the heat of the hot plate, reduce the idle time of the hot plate, allow for more precise temperature control of a single hot plate, ensure that the welding temperature of the two welding devices is consistent, and use a cooling fan to reduce the temperature of the welding area, so that the plastic material can be cooled and shaped quickly, thereby improving welding efficiency.
