Description

The present invention relates to a method and apparatus for producing a resin molded product, in which two types of synthetic resins having different materials or colors are injected to perform double molding.

  Conventionally, double molding has been performed by injecting synthetic resins of two different materials or colors (see, for example, Patent Documents 1 to 4).

  These prior arts have a configuration in which an injection molding machine is disposed on the fixed mold side, and a painting sheet conveying device is integrally disposed on the movable mold side. When molding a resin molded product, first, a primary resin is injected to obtain a primary resin molded product, and then the movable mold is rotated to a position where the secondary resin is injected. Next, after closing the mold in this state, a resin molded product was obtained by a procedure of injecting a secondary side resin to obtain a secondary resin molded product.

  However, if a heavy object such as a painting sheet conveying device is disposed on the movable mold side that is rotationally driven as described above, a large rotational driving force is required.

  In order to solve this, it is conceivable to use a small painting sheet conveying apparatus as in the patent document, but the painting sheet itself is also small, and there is a possibility that the degree of freedom of the painting sheet is impaired. Further, when the driving force of the driving unit is increased, the driving unit itself is increased, leading to an increase in the size of the apparatus and the efficiency is deteriorated.

  Furthermore, when the movable mold is rotated together with the painting sheet conveying device, the position of the painting sheet and the position of the mold cavity may be shifted with the operation. If the positions of the pattern and the cavity are shifted, it is impossible to accurately paint the resin molded product.

  An object of the present invention is to efficiently obtain a resin molded product having a high design by double molding.

Further, as shown in FIG. 3, there are two resin injection means, a primary resin injection means 31 and a secondary resin injection means 32, integrally with the fixed mold 20. As a result, the resin is injected into the fixed mold 20 from the opposite side of the movable mold 10.

  As shown in FIGS. 1 to 3, the movable mold 10 and the fixed mold 20 are formed with a plurality of cavities and the like. Next, this will be described in detail.

  In the movable mold 10, a movable side cavity 11 for molding a primary resin molded product is formed so as to be symmetric with respect to the rotation axis X. A side gate 12 that is not in direct communication with the movable side cavity 11 is formed on the side of the movable side cavity 11.

  The fixed mold 20 is provided with a fixed primary cavity 21 for molding a primary resin molded product and a fixed secondary cavity 22 for molding a secondary resin molded product. The position of the fixed-side primary cavity 21 is disposed at a position facing the movable side cavity 11 on the primary side. The fixed side secondary cavity 22 is disposed so as to face the secondary side movable side cavity 11 and to communicate the movable side cavity 11 and the side gate 12 at the same time.

  As shown in FIGS. 1 and 3, a primary resin conduction path 23 and a primary resin injection port 25 for introducing a primary resin into the fixed primary cavity 21 are formed on the primary side of the fixed mold 20. Is done.

  On both sides of the fixed mold 20, the painting film transport means 40 is fixedly disposed. The painting film conveying means 40 has a sending roller and a receiving roller, and continuously conveys the painting film 41 on which the pattern 51 is printed in the direction of the arrow in the figure.

(Production method)
A method for manufacturing a resin molded product will be described with reference to FIGS. 3 to 5 are views for explaining the movement of the movable mold 10 and the fixed mold 20 during manufacturing, and FIG. 6 is an enlarged cross-sectional view showing a detailed configuration of the secondary side cavity.

  The primary molding process for molding the primary resin molded product will be described with reference to FIG.

  First, as shown in FIG. 3A, the movable mold 10 is closed with respect to the fixed mold 20.

  Next, as shown in FIG. 3B, the primary resin melted by the primary resin injection means 31 is injected from the primary resin injection port 25. The injected primary resin passes through the outlet 23a of the primary resin conduction path 23 serving as a pin gate, and is directly filled between the movable side cavity 11 and the fixed side primary cavity 21 from the fixed mold 20 side. By such a procedure, the primary resin member 61 in which the primary resin molded product 61a filled in the cavity and the primary sprue 61b filled in the primary resin conduction path 23 are integrated is obtained.

  A rotation process of rotating the primary resin molded product 61a will be described with reference to FIG.

  First, as shown in FIG. 4A, the movable mold 10 is separated from the fixed mold 20 while the cooled primary resin member 61 is held, and the mold is opened. At this time, the fixed mold 20 is also in a state where the mold 20a and the injection mold 20b are separated and the mold is opened.

  Here, the movable mold 10 and the mold 20a are separated from each other, so that the primary resin molded product 61a is separated from the primary sprue 61b at the narrowed outlet 23a portion of the primary resin conduction path 23. Further, since the mold 20a and the injection mold 20b are separated from each other, a space is generated between the primary resin conduction path 23 and the injection mold 20b, and the primary sprue 61b can be taken out of the fixed mold 20. In this way, the primary resin molded product 61a is molded.

  Next, as shown in FIG. 4A, driving means (not shown) is driven. By this drive, the movable mold 10 is rotated 180 ° about the rotation axis X in an axially symmetrical manner as shown in FIG. Then, the primary resin molded product 61a moves to a position facing the fixed-side secondary cavity 22. In this state, the painting film 41 is conveyed together with the pattern 51 (see FIG. 1) and placed on the fixed secondary cavity 22 of the fixed mold 20.

  The secondary molding process for molding the secondary resin molded product will be described with reference to FIGS. 5 and 6.

  First, with the painting film 41 placed on the fixed secondary cavity 22 on the fixed mold 20 (see FIG. 4B), the movable mold 10 is moved relative to the fixed mold 20, The mold is closed (see FIG. 5A).

  Next, as shown in FIGS. 5A and 6, the secondary resin is injected from the secondary resin injection port 26 by the secondary resin injection means 32. The injected secondary resin passes through the inside of the secondary resin conduction path 24 and enters between the primary resin molded product 61a and the painting film 41 by passing through the side gate 12, and enters the fixed-side secondary cavity 22. Filled.

  Here, the pattern 51 (see FIG. 1) printed on the painting film 41 is transferred (painted) to the secondary resin by the heat and pressure of the melted and filled secondary resin. By such a procedure, the secondary resin portion 62a filled in the cavity and the secondary sprue 62b filled in the secondary resin conduction path 24 are obtained. In addition, as shown to Fig.5 (a), the primary resin member 61 is obtained through the process similar to the above on the primary side. Thereby, continuous molding becomes possible.

  After the secondary molding step, as shown in FIG. 5 (b), the movable mold 10 is fixed with the cooled secondary resin member 62 (a general term for the secondary resin portion 62a and the secondary sprue 62b) being held. Separate from the mold 20 and open the mold. At this time, also in the fixed mold 20, the mold 20a and the injection mold 20b are separated from each other.

  Here, when the movable mold 10 and the mold 20a are separated from each other, the secondary resin portion 62a and the secondary sprue 62b are separated at the narrowed outlet 24a portion of the secondary resin conduction path 24. By separating the mold by such a procedure, the secondary sprue 62b is removed from the secondary resin molded product 60 in which the primary resin molded product 61a and the secondary resin portion 62a are integrated.

  Further, since the mold 20a and the injection mold 20b are separated from each other, a space is created between the secondary resin conduction path 24 and the injection mold 20b, and the secondary sprue 62b can be taken out of the fixed mold 20. .

  Then, the pushing means 80 as shown in FIG. 5B pushes the projecting member 70 disposed adjacent to the movable cavity 11 and the side gate 12. Thereby, the secondary resin molded product 60 is removed from the movable side cavity 11 and the like. Thereafter, the sprue and runner included in the secondary resin molded product 60 are removed. As a result, a resin molded product is completed.

  As described above, according to the present embodiment, more various resin molded products can be obtained by overlapping the two resin members 61a and 62a. In particular, for example, if one or both of the primary resin member 61a and the secondary resin portion 62a are formed of a transparent or translucent member, more various patterns can be formed.

  In the present embodiment, resin is injected through the side gate 12 into the secondary cavity. Thereby, a resin molded product can be molded using the painting film 41. As a result, the pattern of the resin molded product is diversified, and the design can be further improved.

  In the present embodiment, the heavy resin injection means 31 and 32 and the painting film transport means 40 are disposed on the fixed mold 20 side. Since each heavy means is not arranged on the movable mold 10 side, the weight of the movable mold 10 is reduced, and the driving force of the driving means for rotating and moving the movable mold 10 can be reduced. For this reason, the movable mold 10 can be effectively moved with a small driving force, and a resin molded product can be obtained efficiently.

  In the present embodiment, the painting film transport means 40 is disposed on the fixed mold 20 side. Therefore, when the painting film 41 is conveyed by the painting film conveying means 40 and positioned at a predetermined position, the position of the painting film 41 is securely fixed until the resin is injected. Then, the accuracy of the transfer position of the pattern is higher than when the painting film transport means rotates together with the movable mold. As a result, the position of the pattern transferred and printed on the resin is improved, and the high designability of the resin molded product can be maintained.

[Other Embodiments]
In the embodiment described above, the shape of the gate to the secondary cavity is the side gate 12, but this is not a limitation. For example, as shown in FIG. 7, a submarine gate 112 formed by narrowing a part of the side gate 12 described above may be used. In this case, when the movable mold 10 and the fixed mold 20 are separated from each other, the secondary resin is separated at the narrowed portion. Thereby, since the process of removing the runner after obtaining the secondary resin molded product 60 is omitted, the processing process can be made more efficient.

  In the embodiment described above, the two cavities 21 and 22 and the two conduction paths 23 and 24 are integrally formed in one fixed mold 20, but the present invention is not limited to this. For example, as shown in FIG. 8, the fixed mold 120 fixed to the pedestal 102 may be composed of a plurality of mold plates. In the present embodiment, the fixed side primary template 120a and the fixed side secondary template 120b are constituted by two template plates.

  In the embodiment described above, the two cavities 11 and the two gates 12 are integrally formed in one movable mold 10, but the present invention is not limited to this. For example, as shown in FIG. 8, the movable mold 110 may also be made independent as two mold plates 110a and fixedly arranged so that the mold plates 110a are symmetrical with each other.

  Thus, by making a template into a some independent metal mold | die, temperature management can be separately performed for every template. Thus, for example, if the temperature management of the primary side and secondary side template is performed separately, the temperature control of each template can be performed in accordance with each process. As a result, a more precise and more stable resin molded product can be obtained.

  The present invention can be used when a resin molded product is molded by injection molding.
