TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present utility model relates to plants for producing plastic corrugated pipes, in particular to a double water channel cooling circuit system for a molding tool of a plastic corrugated pipe with an ultra-strong flared end. STATE OF THE ART
[0002] In recent years, with the development of double-wall corrugated pipes, the problem of leaks at the female and male ends has become increasingly apparent. Some countries and regions have begun to reduce the use of this connection method, which involves connecting a flared end and a male end with a sealing rubber ring. Alternatives such as injection-molded flared ends or welded flared ends are gradually being used, but the implementation costs of these alternatives are significantly higher than those of the female-to-male connection. The main causes of leaks at the female and male ends are the aging of the rubber rings and the deformation of the flared ends, with deformation of the flared ends being the dominant factor.The plan was to increase the rigidity of the flared ends through an optimized flared end structure, effectively improving the deformation problem of the flared ends and providing customers with suitable flared ends that fully meet standard requirements and are more reliable. For this purpose, the concept of "ultra-strong flared end" was proposed. An ultra-strong flared end means that the wall thickness of the flared end portion of a pipe must reach a certain value. Generally, the thickness of a flared end should be at least twice the wall thickness of a straight pipe. This significantly increases the rigidity of the flared pipe and effectively solves the deformation problem of the flared end.
[0003] To produce corrugated plastic pipes with ultra-strong flared ends, extremely stringent requirements are placed on a forming machine's cooling system. Currently, most forming machines utilize a single-channel circulating cooling system for the molding tools. All modules utilize cooling water from the same channel, and the pipes are cooled by the circulating cooling water within the modules. However, this design has low cooling efficiency because the water temperature and flow rate can only be adjusted to one forming module and one expanding module. This significantly limits the potential for increasing pipe production speeds.
[0004] Furthermore, Chinese utility model patent ZL 2021 2 3042397.5 discloses a water cooling circuit system for plastic corrugated pipe molds. The externally supplied water is divided into two separate, independently circulating cooling water channels via a rotary connector assembly: an expansion cooling water channel for cooling an expansion module and a main pipe cooling water channel for cooling a main pipe module. By separately controlling the temperatures of the main pipe cooling water channel and the expansion cooling water channel, the temperatures of the corresponding main pipe module and expansion module can be controlled. However, the expansion cooling water channel and the main pipe cooling water channel must still share a four-way connector.This results in the water temperatures of the two channels at the four-way connector interfering with each other, making it difficult to regulate water temperature and flow rates. Furthermore, the integrated four-way connector is less flexible due to its large size, has higher operating resistance, and is not suitable for high-speed operation.
[0005] In summary, the existing cooling concept can no longer meet the cooling requirements of molds for ultra-strong flared ends. Continued use would significantly reduce production speed, increase cooling times, and reduce production efficiency. CONTENT OF THE PRESENT UTILITY MODEL

It serves to regulate the water flow in the expansion module's total water inlet pipe 311, thereby controlling the flow rate and temperature of the expansion cooling water channel. The expansion cooling water channel for cooling the expansion modules is designed as an independent circulating water channel. In conjunction with the use of a water cooling machine, the flowmeter 3110 mounted on the expansion module's total water inlet pipe 311 ensures a precisely metered cooling water supply with precisely controlled temperature and flow rate.
