Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of injection nozzle technology, specifically a cold flow channel system with valve control for the main injection nozzle. Background Technology
[0002] The injection nozzle (also called a jet nozzle or spray nozzle) of an injection molding machine is a key component connecting the injection molding machine barrel and the mold gate. Its core function is to precisely inject molten plastic into the mold cavity under high pressure. It acts as a sealing interface between the barrel and the mold gate sleeve, ensuring that the molten plastic flows into the mold runner without leakage. The spherical design (or flat structure) at the tip of the nozzle precisely matches the groove of the mold gate sleeve to form a high-pressure seal, preventing plastic from overflowing.
[0003] When injecting liquid silicone into existing injection molding machines, the high fluidity of the silicone causes it to drool, leading to material leakage. Therefore, this does not meet the current requirements. To address this, we propose a cold runner system with valve control for the main nozzle. Utility Model Content
[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide a cold runner system with valve control for the main nozzle, in order to solve the problem mentioned in the background art that when the injection nozzle of the existing injection molding machine injects high-temperature and high-pressure rubber, the high fluidity of the silicone causes drooling, which in turn leads to leakage of the rubber.
[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a cold runner system with valve control for the main nozzle, comprising a main nozzle valve control mechanism and a cold runner mechanism.

Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments.
[0018] The first cylinder 5 (model MDBB40-150Z) and the second cylinder 10 (model CDQMB80-50DZ) mentioned in this utility model can be obtained from the market or through private customization.
[0019] Please see Figure 1 and Figure 2 This utility model provides an embodiment of a cold runner system with a main nozzle valve port control, comprising a main nozzle valve port control mechanism and a cold runner mechanism. The cold runner mechanism is located outside the rear end of the main nozzle valve port control mechanism. The main nozzle valve port control mechanism includes a cylinder seat 1, a main injection runner plate 2 fixedly mounted on the front end face of the cylinder seat 1, a main nozzle insert 3 fixedly mounted on the middle part of the main injection runner plate 2, a first cylinder 5 fixedly mounted on the inner side of the cylinder seat 1, a first valve needle 6 fixedly mounted on the output end of the first cylinder 5, a main injection runner insert 4 fixedly mounted on the inner side of the upper end of the main injection runner plate 2, and a second valve needle 6 mounted behind the cylinder seat 1. The cylinder 10 has a flow channel deflector 12 installed below it. The inner side of the flow channel deflector 12 is slidably connected to the second valve needle 15. The outer side of the bottom end of the second valve needle 15 is slidably connected to the cold nozzle 14. A rubber flow channel 17 is provided between the main flow channel insert 4 and the flow channel deflector 12, so that the first cylinder 5 and the second cylinder 10 respectively drive the first valve needle 6 and the second valve needle 15 to insert into the inner side of the main nozzle insert 3 and the cold nozzle 14, thereby realizing the synchronous active sealing operation of the inner side of the main nozzle insert 3 and the cold nozzle 14, i.e., the two ends of the rubber flow channel 17, and thus the rubber can be intercepted to the inner side of the rubber flow channel 17.
[0020] Please see Figure 1 and Figure 2The cold runner mechanism includes a support base plate 8, a cylinder seat 1 fixedly connected to the support base plate 8, a synchronous guide plate 11 installed above the support base plate 8, the cylinder seat 1, the main injection runner plate 2, and the synchronous guide plate 11 connected through a material flow channel 17, a heat insulation plate 16 fixedly installed between the support base plate 8 and the synchronous guide plate 11, a code template 9 fixedly installed on the upper end face of the synchronous guide plate 11, a second cylinder 10 and a flow channel deflector insert 12 both fixedly connected to the code template 9, and the upper end of the second valve needle 15 sequentially passes through the cold nozzle 14, the synchronous guide plate 11, the flow channel deflector insert 12, and the code template 9, and is connected to the first cylinder 10. The output ends of the two cylinders 10 are fixedly connected, and the front end of the support base plate 8 is fixedly installed with a valve 13. The valve 13 is connected to the first cylinder 5 and the second cylinder 10 through a hose. The synchronous guide plate 11 and the code plate 9 are provided with a cooling water channel 7. The two ends of the glue flow channel 17 are connected to the main nozzle insert 3 and the cold nozzle 14. The front end of the cooling water channel 7 passes through the cylinder seat 1 and the main injection flow channel plate 2 and is arranged in a spiral on the outside of the glue flow channel 17. The cooling water channel 7 can cool the glue during the process of guiding the glue in the glue flow channel 17, so as to prevent the liquid silicone from solidifying in the glue flow channel 17.
[0021] Please see Figure 2 and Figure 3 A pressure sensor 19 is fixedly installed on the inner side of the main nozzle insert 3. A transmission block 18 is installed at the bottom of the pressure sensor 19. The transmission block 18 is slidably connected to the main nozzle insert 3. The transmission block 18 is in contact with the bottom of the pressure sensor 19. The bottom of the transmission block 18 is inserted into the inner side of the glue flow channel 17. The pressure sensor 19 can monitor the glue pressure in the glue flow channel 17 in real time through the transmission block 18, which facilitates the auxiliary monitoring of the opening and closing control of the glue flow channel 17 by the first cylinder 5 and the second cylinder 10.
[0022] In summary, during injection molding, the main nozzle insert 3 is brought into contact with the mold gate, and liquid silicone is injected into the inner side of the material flow channel 17 through the cooling nozzle 14. When the power is turned on, the material flow channel 17 is turned by the flow channel turning insert 12 and the main flow channel insert 4 in sequence, and the material is injected through the main nozzle insert 3. The front end of the cooling water channel 7 passes through the cylinder seat 1 and the main injection flow channel plate 2 and is arranged in a spiral on the outside of the material flow channel 17. This allows the cooling water channel 7 to cool the material during the process of guiding the material in the material flow channel 17, thus preventing the liquid silicone from solidifying inside the material flow channel 17.
[0023] During the gap in the injection of the rubber material, the first cylinder 5 and the second cylinder 10 are activated, so that the first cylinder 5 and the second cylinder 10 drive the first valve needle 6 and the second valve needle 15 to be inserted into the inner side of the main nozzle insert 3 and the cold nozzle 14, so as to realize the synchronous active sealing operation of the inner side of the main nozzle insert 3 and the cold nozzle 14, that is, the two ends of the rubber material flow channel 17, thereby trapping the rubber material to the inner side of the rubber material flow channel 17, so as to avoid the output gap of the rubber material injection during the next injection. The pressure sensor 19 can monitor the rubber material pressure in the rubber material flow channel 17 in real time through the transmission block 18, so as to facilitate the auxiliary monitoring of the opening and closing control of the rubber material flow channel 17 by the first cylinder 5 and the second cylinder 10.
