Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of composite material molding technology, specifically a composite material molding injection epoxy resin system. Background Technology

[0002] Epoxy resins are a general term for organic compounds containing two or more epoxy groups in their molecules. With a few exceptions, their relative molecular mass is relatively low. The molecular structure of epoxy resins is characterized by the presence of reactive epoxy groups in the molecular chain. These epoxy groups can be located at the ends, in the middle, or in a cyclic structure. Furthermore, their excellent physical, mechanical, and electrical insulation properties, adhesion to various materials, and flexibility in processing are unmatched by other thermosetting plastics. Therefore, they can be used to make coatings, composite materials, castings, adhesives, molding materials, and injection molding materials, finding wide application in various sectors of the national economy.

[0003] During the epoxy resin casting process, air bubbles are easily generated for two reasons: firstly, the flowing liquid resin can carry away external air; secondly, air already present in the gap between the core and the outer shell can be introduced into the liquid resin. This mixed air eventually forms bubbles in the liquid resin before curing. After the epoxy resin cures, these bubbles can create cavities or holes inside or at the edges, affecting the quality of the molded product.

[0004] Existing epoxy resin defoaming treatment devices involve pouring epoxy resin and defoamer into a reaction vessel, then rotating a stirring rod to agitate the epoxy resin and defoamer, thus defoaming the epoxy resin. However, because the stirring rod cannot move up and down, the agitation range is limited when agitating the epoxy resin and defoamer, which may prevent the water-based resin and defoamer from being fully mixed. Furthermore, the stirring efficiency of the stirring rod is low, affecting the defoaming treatment efficiency of the water-based resin. Utility Model Content

[0005] This invention provides an epoxy resin injection system for composite material molding, aiming to solve the problems mentioned in the background art, such as the inability of the stirring rod to move up and down, the limited stirring range when stirring epoxy resin and defoamer, the inability to fully mix water-based resin and defoamer, and the low stirring efficiency of the stirring rod affecting the defoaming efficiency of water-based resin.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a composite material molding epoxy resin injection system, comprising a reaction vessel, an intermittent adjustment mechanism fixedly installed on the top of the reaction vessel, and a bubble-absorbing assembly movably installed inside the reaction vessel; the intermittent adjustment mechanism includes a bracket fixedly installed on the top of the reaction vessel, a first motor fixedly installed on one side of the bracket, a disc fixedly installed on the output shaft of the first motor, a convex shaft fixedly connected to the surface of the disc, a movable plate movably sleeved on the outside of the convex shaft, and a component formed in the movable plate. The reactor includes an arc-shaped groove on its surface that is adapted to the convex shaft, and a stirring device fixedly connected to the bottom of the movable plate; the bubble-absorbing assembly includes a plurality of movable grooves evenly opened circumferentially on the upper inner side of the reactor, a floating ring slidably connected to the inner wall of the movable groove, a light spring fixedly connected between the bottom inner side of the movable groove and the floating ring, a bubble-absorbing plate slidably connected to the floating ring and having a cavity inside, a bubble-absorbing port fixedly installed at the bottom of the bubble-absorbing plate, a gas guide pipe fixedly connected to one side of the top of the bubble-absorbing plate, and a bubble-absorbing machine fixedly installed on the upper side of the stirring device and whose output end is connected to the gas guide pipe.

[0007] In operation, the first motor drives the disc to rotate, and the rotational motion is converted into the horizontal reciprocating motion of the moving plate through the cooperation of the convex shaft and the arc-shaped groove. The stirring device moves periodically with the moving plate to achieve intermittent stirring of the resin, avoiding local overheating or premature curing caused by continuous stirring. Epoxy resin curing depends on the cross-linking reaction; intermittent stirring can extend the pot life and ensure resin fluidity. The bubble-absorbing plate is suspended on the resin surface by a floating ring and a light spring, and the bubble-absorbing port adaptively adjusts its position according to the liquid level. The bubble-absorbing machine extracts bubbles through the air guide tube, and the linkage between the convex strip of the stirring shaft and the sliding sleeve enhances the bubble detachment efficiency. The guide rod and slider ensure the smooth movement of the moving plate; the T-shaped slider and T-shaped groove cooperate to make the bubble-absorbing plate rotate synchronously during stirring, increasing the bubble capture range.

[0008] Preferably, the stirring device includes a second motor fixedly installed at the bottom of the movable plate, a stirring shaft fixedly installed at the output shaft of the second motor, and a stirring paddle fixedly installed at the lower end of the stirring shaft.

[0009] Preferably, guide rods are fixedly installed on both sides of the top of the reactor, and support rods are fixedly connected to both sides of the movable plate. A slider that is slidably connected to the guide rod is fixedly installed at the end of the support rod.

[0010] Preferably, two symmetrically distributed protrusions are fixedly provided on the upper surface of the stirring shaft, and a sliding sleeve that is slidably connected to the protrusions is fixedly connected to the center of the bubble-absorbing plate.

[0011] Preferably, a T-shaped slider is fixedly installed on the top edge of the bubble-absorbing plate, and a T-shaped groove adapted to the T-shaped slider is opened at the bottom of the floating ring.

[0012] Preferably, the bottom of the reactor is provided with a discharge port, and a discharge valve is fixedly provided on one side of the discharge port.

[0013] This epoxy resin injection system for composite material molding features a simple structure and ease of use. Intermittent stirring prevents localized overheating, maintaining the resin at a low viscosity to facilitate filling fiber gaps. A dual-motor design (first and second motors) decouples motion and stirring, allowing for precise control of reaction conditions. An adaptive bubble suction port, closely attached to the liquid surface and combined with negative pressure suction, significantly reduces microbubble residue, improving the composite material's density and anti-aging properties. A floating ring and lightweight spring buffer mechanical vibrations, preventing disturbance to the cured resin layer and ensuring the integrity of the three-dimensional cross-linked structure. This system, through a combination of mechanical dynamic control and chemical curing characteristics, solves problems such as uneven mixing and bubble residue in traditional epoxy resin injection, significantly improving composite material molding efficiency and product performance.
