Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of insert manufacturing technology, and in particular to an automatic insert removal device for injection molding. Background Technology
[0002] Insert injection molding is a process in which inserts are pre-fixed in appropriate positions in an injection mold, and then plastic is injected to form the mold. After the mold is opened, the inserts are tightly encased and embedded in the cooled and solidified plastic to obtain products with inserts such as threads and electrodes.
[0003] Traditional production methods involve first opening the mold with an injection molding machine, and then manually placing and removing the metal inserts. Because the placement of the inserts varies and their small size makes them difficult for workers to handle each time, production efficiency is low, requiring a significant amount of time to complete each batch. Therefore, we have proposed an automated insert removal device for injection molding. Utility Model Content

[0029] Please see Figure 1-4 This utility model provides a technical solution:
[0030] An automatic insert pick-up device for injection molding includes an injection molding machine body 1. A positioning post 2 is fixedly connected to the upper middle part of the injection molding machine body 1. Several through slots 11 are opened through the upper middle part of the injection molding machine body 1. Two first connecting holes 12 are opened through the upper left part of the injection molding machine body 1. The two first connecting holes 12 are used to fix a pick-up component 6. Two support rods 3 are fixedly connected to the upper left part of the injection molding machine body 1. The upper ends of the two support rods 3 are used to fix a mounting frame 4. A sliding groove 41 is opened at the upper end of the mounting frame 4. An insert feeding component 5 is slidably installed in the sliding groove 41. An insert 7 is placed at the upper end of the injection molding machine body 1. The length of the mounting frame 4 is less than half the length of the injection molding machine body 1. The several through slots 11 are distributed in a ring with equal angular dimensions.
[0031] In this embodiment, the insert feeding assembly 5 includes a motor 51. The output end of the motor 51 is fixedly connected to a threaded rod 52. A slider 53 is threadedly connected to the outer surface of the threaded rod 52. A 54 is fixedly connected to the lower end of the slider 53. A first electric telescopic rod 55 is fixedly connected to the lower end of the 54. A vacuum suction cup 56 is fixedly connected to the lower end of the first electric telescopic rod 55. The inner diameter of the slider 53 is equal to the diameter of the threaded rod 52. The diameter of the vacuum suction cup 56 is greater than the diameter of the first electric telescopic rod 55. The size of the 54 is adapted to the size of the groove 41. The diameter of the vacuum suction cup 56 is smaller than the diameter of the insert 7.
[0032] The above scheme works as follows: when insert 7 needs to be loaded, slider 53 is locked in groove 41, and 54 extends out from the lower end of groove 41 to complete the limit. Motor 51 is started, and the output end of motor 51 drives threaded rod 52 to rotate. Threaded rod 52 drives slider 53, which is connected to the thread on its outer surface, to slide in groove 41. Then, 54 drives vacuum suction cup 56 to move to the upper end of insert 7. The first electric telescopic rod 55 is started to drive vacuum suction cup 56 to contact and suck up insert 7, and move it to the position of positioning post 2 for quick loading, reducing the labor burden of workers.
[0033] In this embodiment, the part-retrieving component 6 includes a connecting plate 61. Two second connecting holes 62 are formed through the upper end of the connecting plate 61. A second electric telescopic rod 63 is fixedly connected to the upper end of the connecting plate 61. A fixing plate 64 is fixedly connected to the upper end of the second electric telescopic rod 63. A plurality of top rods 65 are fixedly connected to the upper end of the fixing plate 64. The positions and dimensions of the two second connecting holes 62 and the two first connecting holes 12 are adapted to each other. The positions and dimensions of the plurality of top rods 65 are adapted to each other.
[0034] With the above solution: when the injection molding is completed and the part needs to be removed, the positions of the two second connecting holes 62 are aligned with the positions of the two first connecting holes 12, so that they are fixedly installed at the lower end of the injection molding machine body 1. The second electric telescopic rod 63 is activated, and the output end of the second electric telescopic rod 63 drives the fixed plate 64 to rise, thereby causing several push rods 65 to pass through the through groove 11 at the same time, lifting the insert 7, and quickly removing the part, thus improving work efficiency.
[0035] It should be noted that this utility model is an automatic insert removal device for injection molding. During use, the injection molding machine body 1 is first placed in a suitable position, and the insert 7 is placed on the upper end of the injection molding machine body 1. When the insert 7 needs to be loaded, the slider 53 is engaged in the groove 41, and 54 extends from the lower end of the groove 41 to complete the limiting. The motor 51 is started, and the output end of the motor 51 drives the threaded rod 52 to rotate. The threaded rod 52 drives the slider 53, whose outer surface is correspondingly threaded, to slide within the groove 41. Then, 54 drives the vacuum suction cup 56 to move to the upper end of the insert 7, activating the first electric telescopic rod. 55 drives the vacuum suction cup 56 to contact and hold the insert 7, moving it to the position of the positioning post 2 for quick part loading, reducing the workload of workers. After the insert is completed, the mold is placed and the injection molding machine body 1 is started for injection molding. When the injection molding is completed and the part needs to be removed, the positions of the two second connecting holes 62 are aligned with the positions of the two first connecting holes 12, so that they are fixedly installed at the lower end of the injection molding machine body 1. The second electric telescopic rod 63 is started. The output end of the second electric telescopic rod 63 drives the fixed plate 64 to rise, thereby causing several push rods 65 to pass through the through groove 11 at the same time, lifting the insert 7 for quick part removal and improving work efficiency.
