Point-type sensor of the present invention both can play the effect of plate capacitance sensor by the form of array, also can rational deployment in the mould of non-planar surfaces structure, applicability is wider.Capacitance sensor plate designs of the present invention is single point shape (being generally 3 ~ 6mm circular), can by the key point place of difference layout at injection moulding process such as glue-feeder, last filling position, last cool position.
Point electrode capacitor sensor of the present invention comprises point electrode capacitor and capacitance measurement unit.
(1) point electrode capacitor
As shown in Figure 7, capacitor is formed between point electrode and grounding electrode plate.When tested plastic melt is placed between above-mentioned two electrodes, melt replaces air dielectric as medium and causes capacitance to raise, and the factor such as materials behavior, thickness, mold temperature of melt also can affect the change of capacitance in injection moulding process in addition.Therefore, the application of this configuration just can be monitored real-time procedural information by Real-Time Monitoring capacitance in a mold.Two metal electrodes of point electrode capacitor are contained in the two halves of mould respectively, and (half is quiet mould, and half is dynamic model, as shown in Figure 7.In the process that mould is closed, quiet mould is motionless, and dynamic model closes to quiet mould direction, and this two metallic plate is mutually isolated simultaneously), thus form two electrodes of capacitor.
In addition, because plate electrode and mould are all metal material, in order to reduce the complexity of design, the present invention only devises point electrode, and another electrode of point electrode capacitor is then replaced by the dynamic model of access capacitance measurement unit.As shown in Figure 7, one piece of corrosion resistant plate is arranged in dynamic model, forms a pole of point electrode capacitor, comprises the quiet mould part of point electrode without any need for amendment simultaneously, forms an other pole of point electrode capacitor.
The position relationship of the feature little for point electrode size and thimble and mould is considered, point electrode sensor of the present invention also can be designed to the shape identical with thimble and replace thimble, is arranged on the quiet mould of mould on the thimble being arranged on mould dynamic model and by metal electrode by point electrode.Such design can be formed by existing equipment quick transformation, does not need to change existing mould structure, only thimble need be carried out improving just can realize, avoid other processing mounting holes on mould, convenient and be generally suitable for.
(2) capacitance measurement unit
Capacitance measurement unit of the present invention is then primarily of three part compositions, as shown in Figure 6, wherein, the capacitance of capacitance-voltage modular converter to point electrode capacitor measure and capacitance is converted into analog voltage export, and output voltage and capacitance linear; The analog voltage of output is converted into digital quantity by the analog-to-digital conversion module of capacitance measurement unit; The acquisition module of capacitance measurement unit gathers the digital quantity that capacitance measurement unit exports and feeds back to state recognition system.
(2) state recognition system
State recognition system gathers and record at the digital quantity do not exported in the same time capacitance measurement unit, obtains output voltage-time graph, then analyzes this curve, can identify the state in mould residing for melt.
Embodiment two
With reference to Fig. 5, the second embodiment of the present invention:
For the consideration of reliability, point electrode capacitance sensor of the present invention divides three parts, is respectively point electrode, nested and helical bolt.The design of point electrode needs to consider its working environment.In a mold, point electrode should bear the pressure from plastics in die cavity, must ensure that again its pole plate does not enter die cavity, to avoid the impact on product quality.Therefore, point electrode plate needs to realize location in the two directions.As shown in Figure 5, the location of the present invention to point electrode is realized by the shaft shoulder, and shaft shoulder top coordinates with the locating hole of mould the location realizing upward direction; The bottom of the shaft shoulder then with nested arrangements, then to be coordinated with quiet mould mould by screw thread by helical bolt, realize location in downward direction.
Point electrode, nested, screwed plug three are designed to the structure cooperatively interacted by the present invention, realize point electrode capacitor sensor location in a mold and assembling.Point electrode relies on nested realization to locate with coordinating of bolt, to be fixed in quiet mould, and by the plastic state information in its surface induction mould.
Point electrode capacitor sensor needs when being installed on mould to process (as boring etc.) mould, and in order to make its better adaptability and cost-saving, also the part that mould changes can be made quiet mould module, remainder all makes identical structure.Like this for different products, when it needs to carry out different sensing station layouts, only need to process different quiet mould module, then by quiet mould module assembly in the groove of mould, significantly reduce producing cost and improve the applicability of mould.
In order to form capacitor, the two poles of the earth of capacitor must isolation mutually.The present invention uses electrical insulator to come other positions of isolating points electrode and mould, point electrode with nested between be provided with insulating barrier.
In addition, the position relationship of the feature little for point electrode size and thimble and mould is considered, point electrode sensor of the present invention also can be designed to the shape identical with thimble, replaces thimble.Such design can be formed by existing equipment quick transformation, does not need to change existing mould structure, only thimble need be carried out improving just can realize, avoid other processing mounting holes on mould, convenient and be generally suitable for.
Embodiment three
At the injection stage of injection moulding process, melt injects die cavity under the promotion of screw rod, and its flow regime in die cavity has vital effect to the quality of final products, particularly mechanical property.If melt has non-homogeneous constant melt flow rate in die cavity, then the coefficient of expansion of product each several part can be caused different, cause distortion and the distortion of product; And the flowing velocity of melt in die cavity is even, then can ensure that melt has uniform molecule and fiber orientation distribution, thus ensure the stable mechanical property of product.Based on above consideration, sensory perceptual system of the present invention is also by the multiple point electrode monitoring position of melt front end in die cavity, and then the flowing velocity of instant computing melt in die cavity, be closed-loop control injection process, the flowing realizing melt homogeneous constant provides Fundamentals of Measurement.
The implementation procedure that the present invention is based on the melt flow of melt state sensory perceptual system in mould is:
(1), two of point electrode capacitor electrodes are arranged on the both sides of die cavity, and point electrode capacitor is connected with state recognition system by capacitance measurement unit;
(2), state recognition system sets the sampling period and gathers the output voltage of point electrode capacitance sensor according to this sampling period timing;
(3), melt front end is calculated in the position of each sampling instant t according to the output voltage gathered x t with corresponding point electrode capacitance;
Wherein, for specific injection moulding process, the relative dielectric constant k of macromolecular material fixes, so the position x of melt front end can be expressed as only with the function that capacitance C is variable, again because the capacitance C of output voltage V and capacitor is linear, therefore the function that it is variable that x also can be expressed as with output voltage V.Therefore, can realize determining the determination of melt front position and corresponding point electrode capacitance to the collection of capacitance measurement unit output voltage V.
(4), acquisition is positioned at respectively x t with x t-1 there is the sampling instant of change in the point electrode capacitance at place t t with t t-1 ;
(5), according to the melt front position obtained x t , x t-1 the sampling instant of change is there is with point electrode capacitance t t , t t-1 carry out calculus of differences, thus obtain the melt flow in current time injection mold v t , v t computing formula be:
Embodiment four
With reference to Fig. 1, Fig. 3 and Fig. 8, the fourth embodiment of the present invention:
The cooling stage of injection moulding process occupies the whole injection moulding process the longest time, cool time, deficiency can cause the distortion of product after the inconsistent and die sinking of shaping product, long cool time then can cause lower injection moulding efficiency, increases the cost of injection moulding process.Industrially at present accurately cannot learn best cool time, institute thinks guarantee product quality, generally needs field worker to use any cool time long by rule of thumb as far as possible.
According to of the present invention some capacitance sensor, then at cooling stage, the melt in die cavity enters process of setting because himself heat is run off by die cavity wall, and its high molecular dielectric constant can change (small change) along with the change of himself temperature.Dielectric constant has changed, and corresponds ground, and in mould, the voltage of melt sensor-based system exports and also changes along with the carrying out of process of setting.Based on above thinking, the present invention also can detect freezing rate according to the testing result of cooling stage system output voltage, determines to solidify the time terminated, and then obtains best cool time, improves injection moulding efficiency.
The implementation procedure that the present invention is based on the freezing rate of melt state sensory perceptual system in mould is:
(1), two of point electrode capacitor electrodes are arranged on the both sides of die cavity, and point electrode capacitor is connected with state recognition system by capacitance measurement unit;
(2), state recognition system sets the sampling period and gathers the output voltage of point electrode capacitance sensor according to this sampling period timing;
(3), state recognition system record gather output voltage and gather the moment, obtain corresponding output voltage-time graph;
(4), output voltage to find out the terminal of cooling stage and corresponding start/stop time in time curve;
As shown in Figure 8, in the matched moulds stage, dynamic model is drawn close to quiet mould, and mould inner capacitor two-plate spacing shortens.This change causes the capacitance of point electrode capacitor to increase gradually; Because output voltage linearly changes with electric capacity, so the magnitude of voltage also corresponding increase that capacitance measurement unit exports, till the relative distance between dynamic model and quiet mould no longer changes.At injection stage, because polymer dielectric constant is larger than air, along with macromolecule melt injects die cavity gradually, the capacitance of mould inner capacitor also increases gradually, and the output voltage values of capacitance measurement unit also increases thereupon; At packing stage; a small amount of melt is squeezed into the product contraction that die cavity causes to compensate melt cooling; now the output voltage of capacitance measurement unit also increases mutually, but relative to injection stage, and output voltage becomes slowly in the increasing degree in this stage and speed.After pressurize terminates, injection moulding process enters cooling stage, and significant change does not occur the capacitance of point electrode capacitor; When product solidifies fully, mould is opened, and the distance of electric capacity two interpolar becomes suddenly large, causes capacitance and output voltage to decline rapidly.Therefore by output voltage-time graph, state recognition system clearly can identify and solidify starting point (i.e. the starting point of cooling stage) voltage U 1, solidifies terminating point (i.e. the terminating point of cooling stage) voltage U 2 and initial time accordingly t1, end time t2.
(4), according to the freezing rate in the terminal voltage of cooling stage and the injection mold of start/stop time calculating accordingly.
At cooling stage, output voltage and the electric capacity of point electrode capacitor are linear, and electric capacity and dielectric constant are also linear, dielectric constant and temperature linear, temperature and concreting thickness linear, therefore the output voltage of concreting thickness and point electrode capacitor is linear.Therefore, according to solidifying starting point voltage U 1, solidifying terminating point voltage U 2 and corresponding initial time t1, end time tthe electric capacity C1 of 2 voltage U 1 and starting point point electrode of solidifying starting point is directly proportional, solidify terminating point (i.e. the terminating point of cooling stage) voltage U 2 can calculate average freezing rate.
More than that better enforcement of the present invention is illustrated, but the invention is not limited to described embodiment, those of ordinary skill in the art also can make all equivalent variations or replacement under the prerequisite without prejudice to spirit of the present invention, and these equivalent distortion or replacement are all included in the application's claim limited range.
