Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of injection molding machine manufacturing, and in particular to an injection assembly adapted for BMC injection. Background Technology

[0002] The injection structure of a conventional injection molding machine includes a front plate of the injection unit, a barrel installed at the front end of the front plate of the injection unit, and a hopper installed at the upper end of the front plate of the injection unit. The front plate of the injection unit is mounted on a linear guide support, and the linear guide support slides along the linear guide. The front plate of the injection unit has material passages corresponding to the inlet of the barrel and the outlet of the pressing device, respectively.

[0003] Existing injection molding structures cannot automatically feed BMC material, requiring a switch to a compression device. Furthermore, since BMC material does not require a long plasticizing time, prolonged residence time in the barrel can lead to material solidification and deformation. This necessitates shortening the screw's length-to-diameter ratio (length-to-diameter ratio = distance from inlet to nozzle / screw outer diameter) to achieve rapid BMC discharge. Existing modification methods refer to... Figure 1 As shown, the barrel needs to be replaced with a size that matches the screw's length-to-diameter ratio, i.e., the barrel length is shortened. The front plate of the injection unit extends the shortened distance of the barrel towards the injection mold plate. The original material passage surface is milled and sealed. A new material passage is opened on the newly extended part. The pressure device is installed above the subsequently modified material passage. This method requires a major modification to the front plate of the injection unit and has problems such as insufficient installation space for the pressure device, high modification cost, and inability to switch to the conventional mode. Utility Model Content

[0004] This invention addresses the shortcomings of existing injection components adapted for BMC material injection molding, such as insufficient installation space for the material pressing device, high modification costs, and inability to switch to conventional mode. It provides an injection component that can be used for both conventional injection molding and BMC material injection molding without shortening the installation space or modifying the injection station front plate.

[0005] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, the present invention provides a solution through the following technical method:

[0006] An injection assembly adapted for BMC injection includes a front plate of an injection stage, a first barrel, and a pressing device. The first barrel is detachably inserted into the front end of the front plate of the injection stage and has a first inlet that connects with a first discharge channel of the front plate of the injection stage. The pressing device is detachably installed on the upper end of the front plate of the injection stage and has an outlet that connects with the first discharge channel. The assembly also includes a second barrel that is detachably inserted into the front end of the front plate of the injection stage when the first barrel is disassembled and is used for BMC injection. The upper end of the middle part of the second barrel has a second inlet. A mounting base is detachably installed on the second barrel. The upper end of the mounting base can be detachably installed with the pressing device that has been removed from the front plate of the injection stage, and the mounting base has a second discharge channel that connects with the outlet and the second inlet.

[0007] Using the above scheme, the injection assembly is equipped with a first barrel and a second barrel. When the first barrel is installed, it is inserted into the front end of the injection station front plate, and the pressure device is installed on the upper end of the injection station front plate. This installation mode is the conventional injection mode. When the second barrel is installed, it is inserted into the front end of the injection station front plate, and the pressure device is installed on the mounting base. This installation mode is the BMC material injection mode. This injection assembly can achieve the switching between the two injection modes without modifying the injection station front plate, improving the adaptability of the equipment while keeping costs under control.

[0008] Preferably, the front plate of the firing table is fixed on the guide rail seat, and a support plate for bearing the weight of the assembly seat is provided between the guide rail seat and the assembly seat.

[0009] By adopting the above scheme, the setting of the support plate relieves the pressure of the pressing device on the second barrel, reducing the probability of the second barrel being deformed by external forces.

[0010] Preferably, the support plate is detachably fixed to the upper end of the guide rail seat by the second bolt, and its upper end face fits against the bottom of the mounting seat.

[0011] With the above solution, the spacing between the mounting base and the guide rail base varies for different models of injection molding machines. After the support plate and the mounting base are detachably connected, multiple machine models can be adapted by replacing the support plate, further improving compatibility.

[0012] Preferably, the upper end of the second material discharge channel is fitted with a sealing ring to achieve a sealed connection with the discharge port of the pressing device.

[0013] By adopting the above solution and adding a sealing ring, leakage can be effectively prevented.

[0014] Preferably, the second barrel is fixed to the mounting base by a second bolt.

[0015] Preferably, a positioning structure is provided between the second barrel and the mounting base to preposition the two. The positioning structure includes a positioning pin, which passes through the mounting base and engages with a positioning groove on the second barrel.

[0016] Using the above scheme, the locating pin first restricts the axial movement of the mounting base on the second barrel, and then the second bolt is used to lock the two together.

[0017] Preferably, when the pressing device is installed on the mounting base, a support frame is detachably connected between the side wall of the pressing device and the upper end face of the second material discharge channel.

[0018] Using the above solution, the support frame is used to assist in supporting the pressing device and prevent it from tipping over. During installation, it can be directly connected to the assembly hole of the pressing device that was originally installed on the front plate of the firing table, without the need to modify the front plate of the firing table.

[0019] This utility model, by adopting the above technical solutions, has significant technical effects: the injection assembly is equipped with a first barrel and a second barrel. When the first barrel is installed, it is inserted and installed at the front end of the injection table front plate, and the pressing device is installed at the upper end of the injection table front plate. This installation mode is the conventional injection mode. When the second barrel is installed, it is inserted and installed at the front end of the injection table front plate, and the pressing device is installed on the mounting base. This installation mode is the BMC material injection mode. This injection assembly can achieve the switching between the two injection modes without modifying the injection table front plate, improving the adaptability of the equipment while keeping costs under control.
