Description

Injection device mounting plate for mold and mold
Technical Field
The present invention relates to a mold injection device mounting plate for mounting a coaxial screw injection device on a mold, and a mold.
Background
Conventionally, as an injection molding apparatus dedicated for a laminate molded product for molding the laminate molded product using a plurality of color resin materials or a plurality of types of resin materials, a multicolor multi-material injection molding apparatus having a plurality of injection units of substantially the same size has been widely used. Such a conventional multicolor multi-material injection molding apparatus can be suitably used when the injection filling amount of the resin materials of a plurality of colors or a plurality of types used for 1 laminate molded article is substantially the same. On the other hand, when there is a clear difference in the injection filling amount between a plurality of colors or a plurality of types of resin materials such as the main material and the sub material and the injection filling amount of the sub material other than the injection filling amount of the main material is small, the sub material is held in a plasticized state longer than the main material in the injection unit that injects and fills the sub material, and therefore there is a possibility that the quality of the sub material is degraded. Further, the mold cavity into which the sub-material is injected and filled is often unevenly present at a plurality of locations as compared with the mold cavity into which the main material is injected and filled, and in this case, the resin flow path (hot runner) to the mold cavity for the sub-material becomes long, so that the following problems occur: the structure of the mold becomes complicated; and the time for maintaining the resin flow path in a plasticized state is increased due to the increase in the length of the resin flow path for the sub-material, which may cause the quality of the sub-material to be degraded.
Therefore, conventionally, when the injection filling amount of the sub-material other than the injection filling amount of the main material is small, an injection molding apparatus in which a small sub-injection unit is additionally mounted to a general-purpose injection molding apparatus including 1 main injection unit has been suitably used (patent document 1).
As shown in fig. 6 and 7, patent document 1 discloses an injection molding apparatus including a main injection unit (1 st injection machine, not shown) for a main material and a sub-injection unit (2 nd injection machine) 110 for a sub-material. In the injection molding apparatus of patent document 1, the sub-injection unit 110 is a screw type injection machine including: a heating drum (heating cylinder) 112 having a screw 111 built therein; a flange portion 113 integrally formed at the rear end of the heating drum 112; an injection cylinder 115 attached to the flange portion 113 via a plurality of connecting rods 114; a slider 116 attached to the connecting rod 114 so as to be movable between the injection cylinder 115 and the flange 113; a metering motor 117 provided to the slider 116; and a material supply pipe (hopper) 118 for supplying a material into the heating drum 112. As shown in fig. 6, a large-diameter hole 102 capable of accommodating a heating cylinder 112 of the sub-injection unit 110 is formed in the mold 100, and a resin supply port 104 is formed in the bottom of the large-diameter hole 102.
The heating roller 112 of the sub-injection unit 110 having the above-described structure is inserted into the large-diameter hole 102 of the mold 100, and is urged by the elastic member 122 such as a spring so that the injection nozzle 119 is brought into close contact with the resin supply port 104 of the mold 100, and in this state, the sub-injection unit 110 is mounted to the mold 100 via the mounting mechanism 120.

Disclosure of Invention
Problems to be solved by the invention
However, the injection molding apparatus of patent document 1 is configured such that the elastic member 122 is interposed between the sub-injection unit 110 and the mold 100, and therefore the sub-injection unit 110 cannot be firmly fixed to the mold 100. In the injection molding apparatus of patent document 1, the elastic member 122 presses the injection nozzle 119 of the sub-injection unit 110, and the sliding portion of the related members requires a gap for sliding the related members, so that the sub-injection unit 110 may move in a direction other than the biasing direction of the elastic member 122. In addition, in view of these factors, in the injection molding apparatus of patent document 1, vibration generated by mold opening and closing operation, mold clamping operation, injection filling operation, and the like causes a static load of the sub-injection unit 110 to act on a fixed portion of the sub-injection unit 110 fixed to the mold 100 and the elastic member 122, and a dynamic load of the sub-injection unit 110 is repeatedly applied thereto, so that there is a problem that the fixed portion and the elastic member 122 may be damaged. In the injection molding apparatus of patent document 1, the injection nozzle 119, which is pressed against the resin supply port 104 of the mold 100, slides in an unintended direction with respect to the resin supply port 104 due to the vibration, and therefore, there is a problem that abrasion and damage of the injection nozzle 119 and the resin supply port 104 of the mold 100 may occur.
Further, in the injection molding apparatus of patent document 1, since it is necessary to form a very large hole (large diameter hole 102) having a length and a diameter capable of accommodating the heating drum 112 of the sub-injection unit 100 in the mold 100, there is a problem that the mold 100 becomes large and the arrangement of the cavity is restricted.
The present invention has been made in view of the above circumstances, and an object thereof is to provide an injection device mounting plate for a mold and a mold that can firmly attach a coaxial screw type injection device to a mold and that have less restrictions on the mold in connection with attachment of the injection device.

A through hole penetrating from the back surface to the front surface (mold mounting surface) is formed in the stationary platen 4, and a resin supply port 6a for a main injection unit is formed in the fixed mold 6 at a position corresponding to the through hole of the stationary platen 4. The nozzle portion of the main injection unit 3 is connected to the resin supply port 6a of the fixed mold 6 via a through hole of the fixed disk 4, and is configured to be able to inject molten resin as a main material into the main cavity portions 6b (cavities) of the fixed mold 6 and the movable mold 7. In the injection molding apparatus of the present embodiment, various known structures can be optionally employed for the main injection unit 3, the fixed platen 4, the end plate 8, the movable platen 5, the movable platen 7, the tie bar 9, and the mold clamping mechanism 10, and therefore detailed descriptions thereof will be omitted.

As shown in fig. 2, main injection resin flow passages 24a, 20a, 26a for flowing the molten resin injected and filled from the main injection unit 3 toward the cavity are formed in the manifold block 24, the mold injection device attachment plate 20, and the cavity block 26, respectively, and a main gate 26b (gate) of the main injection resin flow passage 26a is formed in the cavity block 26. The main injection resin flow paths 24a, 20a, and 26a are so-called hot runners whose heating temperatures are controlled, and are configured to be able to hold molten resin injected and filled from the main injection unit 3 in a molten state. In the injection molding apparatus of the present embodiment, various known hot runners can be used as the main injection resin flow paths 24a, 20a, and 26a, and therefore, detailed description thereof will be omitted.
The mold injection device attachment plate 20 is provided with, in addition to the main injection resin flow path 20 a: a plasticizing screw shaft housing portion 20b for housing a plasticizing screw shaft 35a, described later, of the sub-injection unit 30; and a sub-injection resin flow path (injection resin flow path) 20c that causes the molten resin plasticized in the plasticizing screw shaft housing portion 20b to flow toward an expanded cavity portion 6c (cavity) described later, and a sub-gate 26c (gate) is formed in the cavity block 26 at a position corresponding to the expanded cavity portion 6 c.
The plasticizing screw shaft housing portion 20b and the sub-injection resin flow path 20c are both so-called hot runners whose heating temperatures are controlled. In the present embodiment, the plasticizing screw shaft housing portion 20b and the sub-injection resin flow path 20c are formed of separate cylindrical members embedded in holes formed in the mold injection device attachment plate 20, and are configured to be replaceable with another hot runner having a different inner circumferential diameter or the like in accordance with the type of resin material, the outer diameter, pitch, or the like of the plasticizing screw shaft 35a of the sub-injection unit 30, and the like. In the present embodiment, by constituting the hot runner by the replaceable separate member as described above, it is possible to achieve the correspondence with various resin materials by replacing the plasticizing screw shaft 35a of the sub-injection unit 30, and also to achieve the correspondence with various resin materials by replacing the hot runner. In the injection molding apparatus of the present embodiment, various known heating means included in a hot runner can be arbitrarily used as the heating means for the plasticizing screw shaft housing portion 20b and the sub-injection resin flow path 20c, and therefore, a detailed description thereof will be omitted.

The cylinder assembly 35 is configured to: the movable frame 33 and the plasticizing screw shaft 35a are retreated by the movable frame driving mechanism 34 while the plasticizing screw shaft 35a is rotated by the plasticizing screw driving mechanism 36 to perform metering, and after the metering is completed, the movable frame 33 and the plasticizing screw shaft 35a are advanced from the metering completion position (retreated position) by the movable frame driving mechanism 34 to inject and fill the plasticized molten resin from the plasticizing screw shaft housing portion 20b into the sub-injection resin flow path 20 c.
As shown in fig. 4, the injection device mounting plate 20 for a mold including the above structure is manufactured by the following method: the plasticizing screw shaft 35a of the sub-injection unit 30, which does not include the region where the spiral piece 35b of the heating cylinder is exposed, is inserted into the plasticizing screw shaft housing portion 20b, and the sub-injection unit 30 is integrally formed (fitted) with the injection device attachment plate 20 for mold. The fixed mold 6 is manufactured by the following method: the mold injection device mounting plate 20 integrated with the sub-injection unit 30 is inserted into a normal mold including the mold mounting plate 22, the manifold block 24 having a hot runner (main injection resin flow path 24a), and the cavity block 26 having a gate (main gate 26b) communicating with the hot runner so as to be positioned between the manifold block 24 and the cavity block 26, and a sub-gate 26c is formed in the cavity block 26.
As described above, the mold injection device attachment plate 20 of the present embodiment includes: a side surface of a fixing frame 32 to which a sub-injection unit 30 (coaxial screw type injection device) can be fixed; and a hot runner (plasticizing screw shaft housing portion 20b) that is open on the side surface and that is capable of housing the plasticizing screw shaft 35a, and that is configured to be capable of plasticizing and metering the resin material in cooperation with the plasticizing screw shaft 35a and to be capable of flowing the plasticized resin material toward the cavity.
In this way, since the fixing frame 32 of the sub-injection unit 30 is fixed to the side surface (upper surface, lower surface, left side surface, and/or right side surface) of the mold-use injection device attachment plate 20 of the present embodiment, it is not necessary to interpose the elastic member 122 such as a spring between the sub-injection unit 110 and the mold 100 as in the injection molding device of patent document 1. Therefore, according to the mold injection device attachment plate 20 of the present embodiment, since the sub-injection unit 30 (coaxial screw injection device) can be firmly attached to the fixed mold 6 (mold), there is an advantage that damage and abrasion of the components due to vibration caused by the mold opening and closing operation, the mold clamping operation, the injection filling operation, and the like are less likely to occur, as compared with the injection molding device of patent document 1.
Further, the mold injection apparatus mounting plate 20 of the present embodiment has an advantage that the plasticizing screw shaft housing portion 20b (hot runner) has a function of a heating drum (heating cylinder) of a general coaxial screw injection unit, and thus the length and diameter of the plasticizing screw shaft housing portion 20b can be minimized, and the fixed mold 6 (mold) can be made smaller and restrictions on the arrangement of the cavity are less than those of the injection molding apparatus of patent document 1.
Although the preferred embodiments of the present invention have been described above, the technical scope of the present invention is not limited to the scope described in the above embodiments. Various changes and modifications can be made to the above embodiments.
For example, in the above-described embodiment, the structure in which the mold injection device attachment plate 20 is assembled to the stationary mold 6 has been described, but the structure is not limited to this, and may be configured to be assembled to the movable mold 7', for example, as shown in fig. 5. In this case, it is not necessary to arrange the main injection resin flow path in the mold injection device attachment plate 20 ' as in the above-described embodiment, but the movable mold 7 ' may be configured such that the cavity block, the mold injection device attachment plate 20 ' and the mold attachment plate are combined without arranging a manifold block. Further, the mold injection device attachment plate 20 may be assembled to both the fixed mold and the movable mold.
In the above-described embodiment, the configuration in which 1 plasticizing screw shaft housing portion 20b and 1 sub-injection resin flow path 20c are formed in the mold injection device attachment plate 20 and 1 sub-injection unit 30 is attached has been described as an example, but the present invention is not limited to this, and a configuration may be adopted in which 2 or more plasticizing screw shaft housing portions 20b and 2 or more sub-injection resin flow paths 20c are formed and 2 or more sub-injection units 30, 30 are attached to the mold injection device attachment plate 20' as shown in fig. 5. In fig. 5, the gate valve is not shown.
In the above-described embodiment, the gate valve 21 is disposed in the sub-injection resin flow path 20c, but the present invention is not limited to this, and the gate valve 21 may not be disposed. In this case, the following configuration may be adopted: a structure in which the plasticizing screw shaft housing portion 20b directly communicates with the sub gate 26c of the cavity block 26, excluding the sub injection resin flow path 20c, or a structure in which the plasticizing screw shaft housing portion 20b communicates with the sub gate 26c of the cavity block 26 via an extremely short sub injection resin flow path.
In the above-described embodiment, the fixed mold 6 includes the manifold block 24, the cavity block 26, and the mold injection device attachment plate 20, but the present invention is not limited thereto. For example, the mold may be formed only by the cavity block 26 and the mold injection device mounting plate 20 by incorporating the function of the manifold block 24 into the mold injection device mounting plate 20. Further, the mold may be formed only by the mold injection device mounting plate 20 by incorporating the functions of the manifold block 24 and the cavity block 26 into the mold injection device mounting plate 20.
The mold injection device attachment plate 20 is not limited to the structure incorporated in the injection molding device main body 2 of the horizontal injection molding device type shown in fig. 1, and may be, for example, a structure incorporated in an upper mold and/or a lower mold of an injection molding device having a vertical mold clamping mechanism and an upper mold and/or a lower mold of a press device having the same vertical mold clamping mechanism. The vertical injection molding apparatus and the press apparatus may be of any known configuration, and therefore, a detailed description thereof will be omitted.
In the above-described embodiment, the case where the mold is a two-piece mold including the fixed molds 6 and 6 'and the movable molds 7 and 7' has been described, but the present invention is not limited to this, and a three-piece or more mold in which 1 or more intermediate molds are added to the fixed molds 6 and 6 'and the movable molds 7 and 7' may be used. In this case, the mold injection device attachment plate 20 may be attached to the intermediate mold.
