Description

[0001]
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to a rotary molding machine that opens and closes a rotating transfer plate together with a neck mold with respect to an injection cavity mold.
[0002]
[Background]
A hollow product made of a synthetic resin, for example, a plastic container, is generally obtained by placing a bottomed cylindrical preform formed by injection molding in a blow mold having a container-shaped cavity and blow-molding it with high-pressure air. In recent years, PET bottles that have been biaxially stretch blow molded are often used as plastic containers. As a blow molding machine for producing such PET bottles and the like, a rotary molding machine that intermittently conveys injection-molded preforms with a rotating plate and blow-molds them into PET bottles or the like is well known (for example, Patent Documents). 1). In such an injection molding part of the rotary molding machine, the transfer plate and the neck mold are moved downward with respect to the injection cavity mold by the downward movement of the injection core mold, and the mold is clamped.
[0003]
In such a rotary molding machine, the transfer plate and the neck mold are not raised and lowered independently, but are raised and lowered dependently by raising and lowering the upper mold clamping plate to which the injection core mold is attached. Specifically, the transfer plate is always urged upward by an air damper integrated with the tie bar that moves up and down the upper mold clamping plate, and the injection core mold is brought into contact with the neck mold by lowering the upper mold clamping plate. The plate was moved downward. The transfer plate rotates and circulates and conveys the neck mold to each processing unit. In the injection molding unit, the transfer plate must move up and down in a direction perpendicular to the rotation direction. Such a simple air damper is used. Therefore, there is no member that interferes with the rotation direction.
[0004]
A rotary molding machine having this air damper separately from the tie bar has also been proposed (see, for example, Patent Document 2). In this rotary molding machine, a push rod that pushes a transfer plate when releasing an injection core mold from a preform has been proposed.
[0005]
However, in recent years, in a rotary molding machine, improvement in productivity is required by shortening the molding cycle, and the opening / closing operation of the injection mold is accelerated. However, when the opening / closing operation of the injection mold is speeded up, in such a rotary molding machine, the contact between the injection core mold and the neck mold is performed during the high-speed movement of the mold clamping plate. Improvement has been demanded from the viewpoint of durability. Further, in such a rotary molding machine, the transfer plate is held by receiving members separately provided on the rotation center side and the outer side in the rotation radial direction, and the horizontal maintenance during the up-and-down movement of the transfer plate is It has been performed by a pressing member or a push rod attached to the mold clamping plate.

The tip of the lifting piston rod 43 protruding from the lifting cylinder 42 is connected to a substantially intermediate position between the first and second connecting members 48A and 48B, as shown in FIGS. Therefore, by driving the lifting / lowering piston rod 43 back and forth by the lifting / lowering cylinder 42, the first and second connecting members 48A and 48B move up and down relative to the lower mold clamping plate 34, and the first and second connecting members 48A. , 48B and the inner and outer lifting rods 44, 45 connected to the upper ends of the inner and outer lifting rods 44, 45 can be lifted and lowered.
[0029]
(High-speed opening / closing mechanism 31)
The high-speed mold opening / closing mechanism 31 moves the substantially triangular upper mold clamping plate 32 disposed above the transfer plate 12 up and down relative to the machine base 2. On the lower surface of the upper mold clamping plate 32, a plurality of, for example, four injection core molds that are clamped with the neck mold 22 and the injection cavity mold 26 via the injection core mold fixing plate 23 to form a set of injection molds 21. 24 is fixed. The upper mold clamping plate 32 is fixed to the tips of a plurality of, for example, three tie bars 38A, 38B extending upward from the machine base 2. The tie bars 38A and 38B are arranged with one inner tie bar 38B on the rotation center O side and two outer tie bars 38A on the outer side in the radial direction of rotation in accordance with the shape of the fan-shaped transfer plate 12. The plate 32 is fixed in the vicinity of each vertex of the triangle shape.
[0030]
As shown in FIGS. 3 and 6, the inner and outer tie bars 38A and 38B extending through the lower mold clamping plate 34 into the machine base 2 are arranged at the apexes of the lower movable plate 36 having a substantially triangular shape at the lower end. It is fixed in the vicinity. The lower movable plate 36 is fixed to the tip of a high-speed mold opening / closing piston rod 51 that is fixed to the lower surface of the lower mold clamping plate 34 and driven by a high-speed mold opening / closing cylinder 50 that hangs inward of the machine base 2. It is fixed. The high-speed mold opening / closing cylinder 50 is a hydraulic cylinder, and, as shown in FIGS. 2 and 3, drives the high-speed mold opening / closing piston rod 51 protruding from the lower end thereof to advance and retreat. Two high-speed mold opening / closing cylinders 50 are arranged in the rotation direction A. By arranging in this way, the plurality of injection molds are arranged in the longitudinal direction, so that the weight balance with respect to each high-speed mold opening / closing cylinder 50 is good.
[0031]
Accordingly, when the high-speed mold opening / closing piston rod 51 is driven forward / backward by the high-speed mold opening / closing cylinder 50, the lower movable plate 36 moves up and down relative to the lower mold clamping plate 34, and the inner and outer tie bars 38A, 38B and the upper mold clamping plate 32 fixed to the upper ends of the inner and outer tie bars 38A, 38B can be moved up and down. The cylinder diameter of the high-speed mold opening / closing cylinder 50 is selected so that the driving force accompanying the mold opening / closing is generated, and the upper mold clamping plate 32 can be moved up and down, that is, the mold opening / closing operation can be performed at high speed.
[0032]
Further, as shown in FIG. 5, the inner tie bar 38B penetrates the inner receiving member 46B and guides it in the ascending / descending direction, and the outer tie bar 38A penetrates the outer receiving member 46A and guides it in the ascending / descending direction. . Therefore, since the inner and outer receiving members 46A and 46B are guided by the inner and outer tie bars 38A and 38B that guide the injection core mold 24 up and down, the neck mold 22 is also accurately positioned with respect to the injection core mold 24. .
[0033]
(High pressure mold clamping mechanism 33)
As shown in FIG. 4, the high pressure mold clamping mechanism 33 includes a high pressure mold clamping cylinder 52 formed on the lower surface of the lower mold clamping plate 34, and a high pressure mold that can be advanced and retracted with respect to the lower movable plate 36 by the high pressure mold clamping cylinder 52. The hydraulic cylinder includes a clamping piston 53 and a high-pressure clamping piston rod 54 that is integral with the high-pressure clamping piston 53 and protrudes from the high-pressure clamping cylinder 52. Further, as shown in FIG. 6, the high-pressure mold clamping mechanism 33 is placed on the lower movable plate 36 at a pressure receiving position between the high-pressure mold clamping piston rod 54 and the lower movable plate 36 when the injection mold 21 is in the mold closed state. A pressure receiving plate 62 that can be moved back and forth, and a forward / backward drive cylinder 60 that moves the pressure receiving plate 62 back and forth between a pressure receiving position and a retracted position that does not contact the high pressure mold clamping piston 53 are included.
[0034]
As shown in FIG. 6, the lower movable plate 36 has a hole 37 having an inner diameter larger than the outer diameter of the high-pressure mold clamping piston rod 54 at the center of a substantially triangular shape. The pressure receiving plate 62 is composed of two pressure receiving plates 62 so as to cover the hole portion 37, and can slide and move on the upper surface of the lower movable plate 36 by two advance / retreat drive cylinders 60 fixedly arranged on the upper surface of the lower movable plate 36. is there. On both sides of the advancing / retreating path of the pressure receiving plate 62, two guide members 63 that restrict the upward and lateral movement of the pressure receiving plate 62 and guide in the forward / backward direction are fixed to the upper surface of the lower movable plate.
[0035]
The high-pressure mold clamping cylinder 52 has a much larger diameter than the high-speed mold opening / closing cylinder 50 and is formed to have a length necessary for moving the high-pressure mold clamping piston rod 54 by a short stroke, for example, about 20 mm. Therefore, when the injection mold 21 is in the mold closed state, the lower movable plate 36 is pushed down by the mold clamping piston rod 54 via the pressure receiving plate 62, so that the injection is performed between the upper mold clamping plate 32 and the lower mold clamping plate 34. A large mold clamping force can be generated for the mold 21.
[0036]
(Operation of injection molding unit 4)
(Opened state)
As shown in FIG. 2, the injection molding unit 4 is configured such that the injection mold 21 is opened while the preform 20 that has been injection molded is held by a neck mold 22. In the mold open state of the injection mold 21, the injection core mold 24 is in a state where it is raised above the transfer plate 12 together with the upper mold clamping plate 32. The pressure receiving plate 62 is disposed at a retracted position (see FIG. 6) retracted along the guide member 63 by the advance / retreat driving cylinder 60. Therefore, the hole 37 formed in the lower movable plate 36 is opened and accommodates the high-pressure mold clamping piston rod 54. Then, the neck mold 22 holding the preform 20 and the transfer plate 12 are rotated and moved to the temperature adjusting section 5 by an electric motor (not shown) while the mold is open, and the empty neck from which the hollow product is discharged at the take-out section 7 The mold 22 is rotated and conveyed together with the transfer plate 12 to the injection molding unit 4 and stops at a predetermined position.
[0037]
(Mold closing process)
By supplying hydraulic oil to the high-speed mold opening / closing cylinder 50 of the high-speed mold opening / closing mechanism 31, the high-speed mold opening / closing piston rod 51 is driven downward to lower the lower movable plate 36, and the upper and lower tie bars 38A, 38B are used to clamp the upper mold. The plate 32 is pulled to move the injection core mold 24 downward relative to the injection cavity mold 25 disposed on the lower mold clamping plate 34. Simultaneously with the lowering drive of the injection core mold 24 or with a slight delay, hydraulic oil is supplied to the lifting cylinder 42 to drive the lifting piston rod 43 downward to lower the first and second connecting members 48A and 48B. The inner and outer receiving members 46A and 46B are pulled by the inner and outer lifting rods 44 and 45, and the transfer plate 12 and the neck mold 22 are moved downward. The high-speed mold opening / closing cylinder 50 and the raising / lowering cylinder 42 are slow-down controlled immediately before the injection core mold 24 and the neck mold 22 are closed with respect to the injection cavity mold 26 to close the mold at a low speed. Therefore, since the raising / lowering means of the neck mold 22 and the injection core mold 24 have separate raising / lowering means, impact at the time of closing the high-speed mold can be reduced. In particular, the first and second connecting members 48A and 48B can accurately maintain the horizontal state when the transfer plate 12 and the neck mold 22 are moved downward.
[0038]
(Clamping process)
When the injection mold 21 is closed, there is a slight gap of about 25 mm, for example, in the height direction between the high pressure mold clamping piston rod 54 and the lower movable plate 36. The pressure receiving plate 62 is slid by the advance / retreat drive cylinder 60 at this slight interval. By this sliding movement, the pressure receiving plate 62 closes the opening of the hole 37 formed in the lower movable plate 36. Then, hydraulic oil is supplied to the high pressure mold clamping cylinder 52 to drive the high pressure mold clamping piston 53 downward toward the lower movable plate 36 side. As shown in FIG. 4, the lower end of the high-pressure mold clamping piston rod 54 abuts against the pressure receiving plate 62 stopped at the pressure receiving position, and the mold is placed between the lower mold clamping plate 34 and the upper mold clamping plate 32 with respect to the injection mold 21. Generate tightening force. After the injection mold 21 is clamped at a predetermined high pressure, the molten resin is injected from the injection device 3 into the injection mold 21 through the hot runner mold 28.
[0039]
(Mold opening process)
After a predetermined time has elapsed after the injection of the molten resin, the high pressure mold clamping piston 53 is retracted to release the contact between the high pressure mold clamping piston rod 54 and the lower movable plate 36. When the pressure receiving plate 62 is moved backward by the advance / retreat driving cylinder 60, the pressure receiving plate 62 returns to the retracted position (see FIG. 6) by sliding the guide member 63. Since the hole 37 is opened by the retreat of the pressure receiving plate 62, the high-speed mold opening / closing piston rod 51 is driven backward by the high-speed mold opening / closing cylinder 50 to raise the upper mold clamping plate 32, and at the same time the lifting cylinder 42 is moved up / down by the lifting piston rod. 43 is driven up to raise the transfer plate 12. As the upper mold clamping plate 32 and the transfer plate 12 are raised, the injection core mold 24 and the neck mold 22 are opened with the injection cavity mold 26 to be in the state shown in FIG. At this time, a plurality of, for example, four pressing members 25 arranged to hang down from the upper mold clamping plate 32 toward the transfer plate 12 are driven downward by a drive mechanism (not shown), so that the preform held by the neck mold 22 is obtained. The injection core mold 24 can be driven to release from the mold 20. The inner and outer receiving members 46A and 46B guide the rotational movement of the transfer plate 12 and guide members 47 formed in an inverted L shape for restricting the upward movement of the transfer plate 12 (see FIG. 5). A plurality of, for example, four are fixed.
