Further, as shown in FIG. 3 and FIG. 4, when the weight detection unit 3 is provided for the hopper 4 to measure the raw material consumption, the resin raw material 8 in the hopper 4 is drawn from the broken line 5 to the solid line along with the raw material consumption. Even if the level was lowered to 6, the weight change detected was only in the shaded portion except the portion 7 immediately above the outlet 10. That is, since the weight of the resin 7 in the portion above the outlet 10 of the hopper 4 does not act on the hopper 4, the weight change is not detected by the weight detection unit 3, and therefore,
The amount of change in the raw material in the hopper 4 could not be detected accurately.

Further, the configuration according to the method for controlling the extrusion amount of the present invention which achieves the above object is to calculate the consumption amount of the resin raw material per unit time from the time change of the weight detected by the weight detection unit, and to advance the screw. It is characterized in that the set amount set for the amount pushed out by the and the consumption amount are compared, and the rotation speed of the screw is increased or decreased based on the difference between them so that the consumed amount is converged to the set amount. .

1 and 2 show an embodiment of the present invention. As shown in both figures, in the hopper 4, a raw material receiving member 9 is arranged above the outlet 10 so as to cover the outlet 10, and the connecting rod 1
It is fixed to the hopper 4 via 2. As shown in FIG. 2, the raw material receiving member 9 has a shape larger than the cross-sectional shape of the outlet 10, and the upper surface thereof is an inclined surface so that the resin raw material 8 can be continuously dropped. Therefore, even the weight of the portion of the resin raw material 8 placed in the hopper 4 located above the outlet 10 acts on the hopper 4 via the raw material receiving member 9. Therefore, the weight detection unit 3 provided for the hopper 4 detects the accurate weight of the resin raw material 8 charged into the hopper 4. And
When the resin raw material 8 is supplied to the screw 2 and consumed,
If the amount of the resin raw material 8 in the hopper 4 is reduced and the amount of change is detected by the weight detection unit 3, the amount of raw material consumed per unit time can be continuously calculated by a computer (not shown). In this way, the raw material consumption A continuously obtained,
Compare with a set value B set as the amount to be extruded by the screw 2 in advance, if A> B, decrease the rotation speed of the screw 2, and conversely, if A <B, increase the rotation speed of the screw 2. Then, the consumption amount A can be converged to the set value B. It is effective to control the increase and decrease of the rotation speed of the screw 2 based on the difference between the consumption amount A and the set value B. The set value B may be constant with time, or may be continuously or stepwise changed in time. Further, even if the screen provided on the die of the extrusion device is clogged and the extrusion efficiency is reduced, according to the present invention, a constant extrusion amount can be obtained by increasing the rotation speed of the screw 2. .

<Effects of the Invention> As specifically described above based on the embodiments, the present invention can continuously and accurately detect the consumption amount of the resin raw material that is consumed as soon as it is charged into the hopper. Therefore, by controlling the number of rotations of the screw based on the consumption amount of the resin raw material, it is possible to avoid the variation in the product size caused by the variation in the extrusion amount.
