Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of injection molding machine technology, specifically a mobile feeding platform and its injection molding machine. Background Technology
[0002] In existing injection molding machine designs, the material outlet typically uses a fixed structure, protruding from the top of the injection unit. While this design meets basic material handling requirements, it has significant limitations in actual production:
[0003] 1. A fixed protruding discharge port will occupy the top space, which will limit the effective use of the area above the injection molding machine, especially in a compact workshop, and may affect the layout of other equipment or the stacking of materials.
[0004] 2. Because the discharge port protrudes from the top of the machine body, it can easily become an obstacle when hoisting molds, repairing equipment, or moving other large items, increasing the difficulty of operation and even potentially causing collision risks, thus affecting production efficiency and safety.
[0005] 3. Fixed discharge ports cannot be adjusted in position or stored according to actual production needs, making it difficult to adapt to different working conditions or special process requirements, thus limiting the versatility and adaptability of injection molding machines to different scenarios.
[0006] Therefore, there is an urgent need for an improved injection molding machine discharge port structure to solve the problems of large space occupation, interference with hoisting operations, and poor flexibility in the existing technology, thereby improving the space utilization and ease of operation of the equipment.

[0030] The present invention will now be described in further detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. These drawings are simplified schematic diagrams, illustrating only the basic structure of the present invention, and therefore only show the components relevant to the present invention.
[0031] Example 1:
[0032] like Figure 1-4 As shown, this utility model discloses a movable feeding platform, including a movable frame 1, which is installed on the top of the injection unit 2 on the injection molding machine, and includes the movable frame 1 and the transition frame 7.
[0033] The movable frame 1 is installed on top of the injection unit 2. Its specific installation structure is as follows: two parallel, symmetrically arranged first linear guide rails 3 are provided on the top of the injection unit 2; the movable frame 1 includes a vertically arranged support 101 and a horizontally arranged mounting frame 102 located on top of the support 101, forming a T-shaped structure. The lower end of the support 101 is fixedly connected to a slider on the first linear guide rail 3. A feeding assembly 4 is provided on the mounting frame 102. The outlet of the feeding assembly 4 is connected to the feeding port of the injection unit 2 via a corrugated pipe for injecting plastic granules into the injection unit 2; moreover, in vertical projection, the feeding assembly 4 and the support 101 are staggered. This ensures that feeding is not obstructed by the support 101, and by adjusting the position of the feeding assembly 4, this invention can be applied to various types of injection molding machines. In this embodiment, two feeding assemblies 4 are arranged symmetrically, making its applicability wider.
[0034] Since the structure of the movable frame 1 that forms a T-shape is unstable, the support 101 extends support rods 103 to both sides; the support rods 103 extend downwards at an angle to form an inverted V structure; the lower end of the support rods 103 is connected to the top of the injection unit 2 through the second linear guide rail 5.
[0035] The top of the transition frame 7 is equipped with a platform, and its lower end is connected to the base 6 of the injection molding machine via a third linear guide rail 10. The exit of the platform is connected to the entrance of the mounting frame 102 via a first ladder 8, and the entrance of the platform is connected to the edge of the injection molding machine base 6 via a second ladder 9. This facilitates workers' access to the mounting frame 102 for material feeding.
[0036] The mounting frame 102 and the platform are equipped with upward-extending guardrails to protect the operators.
[0037] like Figure 5 As shown, the lower ends of the transition frame 7, the movable frame 1, and the support rod 103 are all connected to horizontally arranged mounting plates 11; the tops of the sliders of the first linear guide rail 3, the second linear guide rail 5, and the third linear guide rail 10 are all connected to fixing plates 12; the upper end of the fixing plate 12 is provided with a vertically arranged screw 13; two nuts 14 are threaded onto the screw 13; the mounting plate 11 is sleeved on the screw 13 and located between the two nuts 14. This allows the height of the movable frame 1 and the transition frame 7 to be adjusted, enabling accurate installation with the ladder.
[0038] A horizontally arranged passageway 15 is provided at the edge of the base 6; one end of the passageway 15 connects to the entrance of the second ladder 9, and the other end is located in the non-operational position of the base 6. A walking frame 16 is also provided on the outside of the base 6; both ends of the walking frame 16 extend to the ground; the exit of the walking frame 16 is connected to the other end of the passageway 15 via the third ladder 17. With this arrangement, the operator passes through the walking frame 16, the third ladder 17, the passageway 15, the second ladder 9, the transition frame 7, and the first ladder 8 in sequence to enter the mounting frame 102.
[0039] Protective panels 18 are installed on both sides of the passageway 15 to protect the operators.
[0040] Compared with the prior art, the advantages of this embodiment are: the sliding function of the moving frame 1 along the first linear guide rail 3 allows the feeding component 4 to be moved out of the top working area of the injection molding machine at any time. When hoisting molds or repairing equipment, there is no need to disassemble the feeding structure, completely avoiding the risk of collision, greatly improving the safety and efficiency of operation, and reducing the cost of manual intervention.
