Abstract

In an arrangement for and a method of producing shaped parts of a non-swellable mixture of fibers and heat-hardenable resin, a pressing mass divider is introduced into lower pressing tool during filling of the mixture.

Description

Die Erfindung betrifft eine Vorrichtung zur Herstellung von dünnwandigen Formteilen aus einem nicht steigfähigen Gemisch von Fasern und einem wärmehärtbaren Kunstharz mit einem Preßwerkzeugunterteil, welches das zu verpressende Gemisch aufnehmende Formhohlräume aufweist, und einem komplementär ausgebildeten Preßwerkzeugoberteil, bei der während des Einfüllens des zu verpressenden Gemisches in die Formhohlräume des Preßwerkzeugunterteils hineinragende Preßmasseteiler vorgesehen sind.The invention relates to a device for the production of thin-walled molded parts from a non-rising mixture of fibers and a thermosetting synthetic resin with a pressing tool lower part, which has the mold cavities to be compressed, and a complementary pressing tool upper part, in which during the filling of the mixture to be pressed into the molding cavities of the molding tool lower part projecting molding compound dividers are provided.

Eine derartige Vorrichtung ist aus der DE-A-3 045 702 bekannt.Such a device is known from DE-A-3 045 702.

Die Erfindung bezieht sich auf die Herstellung solcher verhältnismäßig dünnwandiger Formteile, bei denen wenigstens zwei Bestandteile der Formteiles unter einem steilen Winkel zueinander stehen. Für die Herstellung derartiger Formteile sind das Preßwerkzeugunterteil und das Preßwerkzeugoberteil mit entsprechenden Vertiefungen bzw. Erhöhungen versehen. Das zu verpressende Gemisch wird in der erforderlichen Menge und Füllhöhe in das Preßwerkzeugunterteil eingefüllt. Beim nachfolgenden Einfahren des Preßwerkzeugoberteits sollte dieses das Gemisch insbesondere in den Vertiefungen des Preßwerkzeugunterteils zu den steilen Seitenflächen hin verdichten. Das kann jedoch häufig nicht verwirklicht werden weil das eingefüllte Gemisch wegen seiner faserigen Struktur einen Verbund eingegangen ist, der durch das einfahrende Preßwerkzeugoberteil nicht mehr zu trennen ist.The invention relates to the production of such relatively thin-walled molded parts, in which at least two components of the molded part are at a steep angle to one another. For the production of such molded parts, the lower die part and the upper die part are provided with corresponding depressions or elevations. The mixture to be pressed is filled into the lower part of the pressing tool in the required quantity and filling level. When the upper part of the pressing tool is subsequently retracted, it should compress the mixture, in particular in the depressions of the lower part of the pressing tool, towards the steep side faces. However, this can often not be achieved because the filled mixture has a bond due to its fibrous structure, which can no longer be separated by the retracting pressing tool upper part.

Das führt zu einer unerwünschten Ansammlung einer zu großen Menge des zu verpressenden Gemisches am Boden der Vertiefungen des Preßwerkzeugunterteils und zu einer zu großen Verdichtung dieser Gemischmenge. Daraus resultiert wieder eine ungleichmäßige Dichte und daher eine ungteichmäßige Festigkeit des fertigen Formteils.This leads to an undesirable accumulation of too large an amount of the mixture to be pressed at the bottom of the depressions of the lower part of the press tool and to an excessive compression of this amount of mixture. This again results in an uneven density and therefore an uneven density of the finished molded part.

Es ist daher schon eine Vorrichtung bekannt geworden (DE-A-3 045 702) bei welcher in den Formhohlraumen des Preßwerkzeugunterteils ein etwa zentrisch in den Boden des Formhohlraumes schiebbaren Stempel angeordnet ist, welcher von einer Feder betätigt ist.A device has therefore already become known (DE-A-3 045 702) in which a stamp which is pushed approximately centrally into the bottom of the mold cavity and is actuated by a spring is arranged in the mold cavities of the press tool lower part.

Diese bekannte Vorrichtung ist recht aufwendig und vermutlich auch anfällig, weil der Stempel in jedem Formhohlraum derart abgedichtet andeordnet sein muß, daß nichts von dem zu pressenden Werkstoff in den Raum gelanden kann, in den der Stempel beim Pressen abgesenkt wird, aber dennoch stets die Leichtgängigkeit des Stempels sichergestellt sein muß.This known device is quite complex and presumably also susceptible because the stamp must be arranged in a sealed manner in each mold cavity in such a way that nothing of the material to be pressed can end up in the space into which the stamp is lowered during the pressing, but nevertheless the ease of movement of the stamp must be ensured.

Die der Erfindung zugrunde liegende Aufgabe besteht deshalb darin eine Vorrichtung zur Herstellung von Formteilen aus einem nicht steigfähigen gemisch anzugeben, welche einfach aufgebaut und einfach zu handhaben ist und dennoch eine gleichmäßige Verdichtung des zu verpressenden Gemisches beim Pressen gestattet.The object on which the invention is based is therefore to specify a device for producing molded parts from a non-ascending mixture which is simple in construction and easy to handle and yet permits uniform compression of the mixture to be pressed during pressing.

Diese Aufgabe ist erfindungsgemäß dadurch gelöst, daß die in ihrer Gestalt an die Gestalt der Formhohlraume angepaßten Preßmasseteiler an einem Rahmen befestigt sind und mit diesem vor dem Einfüllen des Gemisches derart zwischen Preßwerkzeugoberteil und Preßwerkzeugunterteil einführbar und gegen das Preßwerkzeugunterteil absenkbar sind, daß die Preßmasseteiler in die Formhohlraume hineinragen.This object is achieved in that the shape of the molding compound adapted to the shape of the mold cavities are attached to a frame and can be inserted with this before the filling of the mixture between the pressing tool part and the pressing tool part and lowered against the pressing tool part so that the molding compound parts in the Protrude mold cavities.

Bei der erfindungsgemäßen Vorrichtung wird der Preßmasseteiler vor dem Einfüllen des zu verpressenden Gemisches in das Preßwerkzeugunterteil eingesetzt. Während des Einfüllens oder nach dem Einfüllen des zu verpressenden Gemisches kann der Preßmasseteiler eine Vibration in einer oder mehreren Richtung(en) ausführen welche mit der Preßrichtung einen von Null verschiedenen Winkel einschließt. Nachdem die erforderliche Menge des zu verpressenden Gemisches in das Preßwerkzeugunterteil eingefüllt worden ist, wird der Preßmasseteiler aus dem Preßwerkzeugunterteil entfernt, bevor das Preßwerkzeugoberteil in das Preßwerkzeugunterteil einfährt und das Formteil in der erwünschten Weise ohne Dichteschwankungen preßtIn the device according to the invention, the molding compound divider is used before the mixture to be pressed is poured into the pressing tool lower part. During the filling or after the filling of the mixture to be pressed, the molding compound divider can carry out a vibration in one or more direction (s) which includes an angle other than zero with the pressing direction. After the required amount of the mixture to be pressed has been poured into the lower part of the pressing tool, the molding compound divider is removed from the lower part of the pressing tool before the upper part of the pressing tool moves into the lower part of the pressing tool and presses the molded part in the desired manner without fluctuations in density

Die neue Vorrichtung kann beim Kaltpressen und/oder Heißpressen verwendet werden.The new device can be used in cold pressing and / or hot pressing.

und Fig. 7 die Draufsicht auf die Unterseite eines kegelförmigen Preßmasseteilers.and FIG. 7 shows the top view of the underside of a conical molding compound divider.

Fig 1 zeigt als Ausführungsbeispiel ein mögliches, mit der erfindungsgemäßen Vorrichtung herzustellendes Formteil 1. Bei diesem Formteil 1 handelt es sich um eine Winkelleiste, wie sie beispielsweise bei der Verpackung von quaderförmigen Geräten wie Elektroherden, Waschmaschinen oder dgl., zum Schutz der Kanten benötigt werden. Fig. 1 zeigt nur den Querschnitt der Winkelleiste deren Langserstreckung bei unverändertem Querschnitt in die Zeichenebene hinein verläuft.1 shows an exemplary embodiment of a possible molded part 1 to be produced with the device according to the invention. This molded part 1 is an angular strip, as is required, for example, for the protection of the edges when packaging cuboid devices such as electric cookers, washing machines or the like . Fig. 1 shows only the cross section of the angle bar whose longitudinal extension extends into the plane of the drawing with the cross section unchanged.

Solche Winkelleisten 1 werden jedoch in der Regel nicht als einzelne Formteile hergestellt sondern das gepreßte Formteil besteht aus einer Mehrfachanordnung wie sie aus Fig. 2 erkennbar ist und aus welcher durch Abtrennen an den Linien 2 die einzelnen Winkelleisten 1 gewonnen werden.However, such angle strips 1 are generally not produced as individual molded parts, but the pressed molded part consists of a multiple arrangement as can be seen in FIG. 2 and from which the individual angle strips 1 are obtained by separating the lines 2.

Fig. 3 zeigt eine Presse mit den erfindungsgemäßen Preßmasseteilern, welche zur Hersteltung eines Formteils, wie es in Fig. 2 gezeigt ist, vorgesehen sind. Die Presse besitzt ein Preßwerkzeugunterteil 3, das entsprechend der Form des zu pressenden Formteiles gestaltet ist. Fig. 3 verdeutlicht, daß die Form des Preßwerkzeugunterteils 3 sehr steile Flächen aufweist welche unmittelbar oder unter Zwischenschaltung einer ebenen Fläche ineinander übergehen können. Die Presse in Fig. 3 ist während des Füllvorganges gezeigt d.h. das Preßwerkzeugoberteil 4 das gleichfalls entsprechend des zu pressenden Formteils gestaltet ist, befindet sich in seiner oberen Endlage.FIG. 3 shows a press with the molding compound dividers according to the invention, which are provided for producing a molded part, as shown in FIG. 2. The press has a press tool lower part 3, which is designed according to the shape of the molded part to be pressed. Fig. 3 illustrates that the shape of the pressing tool lower part 3 has very steep surfaces which can merge directly or with the interposition of a flat surface. The press in Fig. 3 is shown during the filling process i.e. the pressing tool upper part 4, which is also designed according to the molded part to be pressed, is in its upper end position.

Während des Fullvorganges befinden sich die Preßmasseteiler 6 zwischen dem Preßwerkzeugoberteil 4 und dem Preßwerkzeugunterteil 3. Bei dem aus Fig. 3 ersichtlichen Ausführungsbeispiel weisen die Preßmasseteiler die Gestalt von messerartigen Stegen auf welche parallel zueinander an einem Rahmen (durch die Linie 7 angedeutet) befestigt sind. Die messerartigen Stege können erforderlichenfalls sogar bis auf den Boden der Vertiefungen im Preßwerkzeugunterteil 3 ragen. Wenn die Preßmasseteiler 6 ihre Lage in der Presse eingenommen haben dann wird das Gemisch beispielsweise bis zur Linie 8 in das Preßwerkzeugunterteil eingefüllt, wobei während des Füllens oder nach dem Füllen die Preßmasseteiler auch eine Vibration ausführen können.During the filling process, the molding compound dividers 6 are located between the pressing tool upper part 4 and the pressing tool lower part 3. In the exemplary embodiment shown in FIG. 3, the molding compound dividers have the shape of knife-like webs which are fastened parallel to one another on a frame (indicated by line 7). If necessary, the knife-like webs can even protrude to the bottom of the depressions in the lower press part 3. When the molding compound dividers 6 have taken up their position in the press, the mixture is filled, for example, up to line 8 into the pressing tool lower part, the molding compound dividers also being able to vibrate during filling or after filling.

Das Gemisch zur Herstellung des Formteils besteht aus Fasern wie lignozellulosehaltigen Fasern zerkleinerten und getrockneten Holzspänen, Bagassefasern u.ä. und einem wärmehartenden Kunstharz, wie einem Melamin-Harnstofformaldehyd- oder Phenolformaldehydharz. Anstelle der vorstehend genannten Fasern können aber auch Fasern anderer Werkstoffe, wie Glasfasern und andere allein oder mehrere derselben miteinander gemischt, verwendet werden, denen entsprechende, vorzugsweise organische, Bindemittel zugesetzt sind.The mixture for producing the molded part consists of fibers such as lignocellulose-containing fibers, crushed and dried wood chips, bagasse fibers and the like. and a thermosetting resin such as a melamine-urea formaldehyde or phenol formaldehyde resin. Instead of the fibers mentioned above, it is also possible to use fibers of other materials, such as glass fibers and others alone or a plurality of these mixed with one another, to which appropriate, preferably organic, binders have been added.

Nach dem Einfüllen des Gemisches in das Preßwerkzeugunterteil und ggf. der Vibration der Preßmasseteiler werden die Preßmasseteiler aus dem Raum zwischen Preßwerkzeugoberteil und Preßwerkzeugunterteil entfernt. Danach wird das Preßwerkzeugoberteil auf das Preßwerkzeugunterteil abgesenkt und dabei das Formteil - wenn es sich um ein einstufiges Preßverfahren handelt - fertig gepreßt.After the mixture has been introduced into the lower part of the pressing tool and, if appropriate, the vibration of the molding compound, the molding compound is removed from the space between the upper pressing section and the lower pressing section. Then the upper part of the pressing tool is lowered onto the lower part of the pressing tool and the molded part - if it is a one-step pressing process - is finished pressed.

Die Presse während des Pressens des Formteils ist aus Fig 4 ersichtlich. Danach wird das Preßwerkzeugoberteil 4 wieder nach oben verfahren und das Formteil aus der Presse entnommen.The press during the pressing of the molded part can be seen in FIG. 4. Then the pressing tool upper part 4 is moved up again and the molded part is removed from the press.

Die Presse in den Figuren 3 und 4 ist derart ausgebildet daß das Preßwerkzeugunterteil 3 feststehend und das Preßwerkzeugoberteil 4 vertikal von oben nach unten beweglich angeordnet ist. Es ist aber im Prinzip gleichgültig welches der Preßwerkzeuge von oben her gegen das entsprechende Gegenwerkzeug auf die Preßmasse einwirkt. Es ist ebenso möglich daß das untere Werkzeug nach oben eingefahren wird oder daß beide Werkzeuge gegeneinander bewegt werden.The press in FIGS. 3 and 4 is designed such that the pressing tool lower part 3 is stationary and the pressing tool upper part 4 is arranged to be movable vertically from top to bottom. In principle, however, it does not matter which of the pressing tools acts against the corresponding counter-tool on the molding compound from above. It is also possible that the lower tool is retracted upwards or that both tools are moved against each other.

Ebenso ist es möglich daß mit der Presse anders gestaltete Formteile hergestellt werden. So ist es denkbar, daß das Formteil aus der Aneinanderreihung einer Mehrzahl von topfartigen Vertiefungen mit steilen Wanden besteht, welche von zwischen ihnen angeordneten, mehr oder weniger ebenen Flächen auf Abstand gehalten werden. Solche Formteile besitzen beispielsweise die Gestalt von Eiersteigen.It is also possible that differently shaped parts are produced with the press. It is conceivable that the molded part consists of a series of pot-like depressions with steep walls, which are kept at a distance from more or less flat surfaces arranged between them. Such molded parts have, for example, the shape of egg crates.

Die Vorrichtung für die Herstellung solcher Formteile ist im Prinzip genau so aufgebaut wie der aus Fig 3 ersichtliche Vorrichtung. Lediglich die in die Vertiefung des Preßwerkzeuges hineinragenden Preßmasseteiler müssen eine entsprechende Gestalt aufweisen, beispielsweise eine pyramidenförmige Gestalt (Fig 5), die Gestalt einer kreuzformigen Messeranordnung (Fig 6) oder die Gestalt eines Kegels (Fig 7). Die Figuren 5 bis 7 zeigen die Draufsicht von unten her auf einen solchen Preßmasseteiler. Es sind aber auch beliebige andere Formen des Preßmasseteilers denkbar, jedoch weisen alle Formen eine mehr oder minder große Ähnlichkeit mit der Form des zu pressenden Formteils auf.In principle, the device for producing such molded parts is constructed in exactly the same way as the device shown in FIG. 3. Only the molding compound dividers projecting into the depression of the pressing tool must have a corresponding shape, for example a pyramid-shaped shape (FIG. 5), the shape of a cross-shaped knife arrangement (FIG. 6) or the shape of a cone (FIG. 7). Figures 5 to 7 show the top view from below of such a molding compound divider. However, any other shapes of the molding compound divider are also conceivable, but all the shapes are more or less similar to the shape of the molding to be pressed.
