Abstract

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To fully apply the pressure due to mold clamping even to sub- compression regions and consequently realize the easy controlling of the sinking at a molding part by a method wherein molds are actuated to close under the state that some part of a molten resin is being pushed out of a cavity so as to heighten the pressure in the sub-compression regions. SOLUTION: After the interior of the cavity 1 of a mold 2 under a slightly- opened state is filled with a molten resin, a movable mold is advanced so as to bring the mold 2 into its mold-clamped state. At this time, by pushing some part of the molten resin within the cavity 1 or excess molten resin hindering mold clamping outside the cavity 1, the mold clamping by the advancement of a male mold 2b is made possible. By backflowing the excess molten resin through a gate 5, the excess molten resin can be pushed outside the cavity 1. Further, the assumption that the male mold 2b is the movable mold may well be changed to the assumption that the female mold 2a is the movable mold.

In the conventional injection compression molding method described above, when the mold is clamped to a predetermined cavity volume, the cavity is overfilled with mold clamping pressure, thereby improving the close contact between the resin and the cavity surface. After this mold clamping, the molten resin in the cavity is made to flow back to the injection nozzle side,
This prevents unnecessary burrs from occurring.

By the way, for example, in injection compression molding of a molded article such as a box or a container having a bottom portion and a side wall portion which is raised from the bottom portion with a slope, usually, The cavity is formed so that the bottom portion is positioned substantially at right angles to the opening / closing direction of the mold. That is, the bottom molding region of the cavity is substantially perpendicular to the opening / closing direction of the mold, and the side wall molding region of the cavity extends from the bottom molding region with a gradient with respect to the opening / closing direction of the mold. The gradient of the side wall forming region may be a draft only or a gradient added in terms of design or function.

When the above-mentioned box or container is molded by the conventional injection compression molding method, the pressure in the side wall molding region does not increase so much even after the mold is clamped, and there is a problem that sink marks are likely to occur in this region. In other words, since the side wall forming region has the above-mentioned slope, but extends substantially in the opening / closing direction of the mold,
Unlike the bottom molding area, which is located almost at right angles to the opening and closing direction of the mold, pressure due to mold clamping is less likely to be applied. Therefore, although the mold is clamped in the overfilled state, the pressure due to this mold mainly acts only on the bottom molding region, and it hardly acts on the side wall molding region, which causes the sink mark. .

In the present specification, a cavity region, which is located substantially at right angles to the opening / closing direction of the mold, such as the bottom molding region, is a main compression region, and a mold region is opened / closed, such as the sidewall molding region. The cavity region extending from the bottom molding region (main compression region) with a gradient with respect to the direction is called a secondary compression region.

First, as shown in FIG. 1, the cavity 1 of the mold 2 in an open state is filled with molten resin. As the resin, a thermoplastic resin used for general injection molding or extrusion molding can be widely used. Further, a thermosetting resin can be used if necessary. Furthermore, fillers such as fillers and reinforcing fibers and various additives can be added to these resins as required.

In order to obtain the state shown in FIG. 1, the mold 2 is opened more than the open state (referred to as "half-open state"), and a sufficient amount of molten resin is injected to fill the cavity 1 in the half-open state. After that, the mold 2 may be closed to the open state so that the cavity 1 in the open state is filled with the molten resin.

However, in the above-described manner, the flow of the molten resin in the cavity 1 due to the injection and the flow of the molten resin in the cavity 1 due to the compression when closing the mold 2 to the open state are intermittent. The so-called hesitation mark is likely to occur due to this interruption. In order to prevent the generation of this hesitation mark, the mold 2 is held in a predetermined open state, and the cavity 1 in this state is kept open.
It is preferable that the molten resin be injected and filled therein. Also, when injecting the molten resin in the half open state,
The closing operation of the mold 2 and the injection of the molten resin are performed in parallel, and when the mold 2 is closed until the mold 2 is opened, the cavity 1 is filled with the molten resin and the injection is completed. It is preferable.

After the cavity 1 of the mold 2 in the open state is filled with the molten resin as described above, the movable mold (the male mold 2b in the illustrated example) is moved forward, and as shown in FIG. , The mold 2 is clamped. At this time, in the present invention,
A part of the molten resin in the cavity 1, that is, an excessive amount of molten resin that hinders the mold clamping is pushed out of the cavity 1 to enable the mold clamping by the forward movement of the male mold 2b. In the illustrated example, excess molten resin is forced to flow out of the cavity 1 by flowing back through the gate 5. Although the male mold 2b is movable in the illustrated example, the female mold 2a may be movable.

The excess molten resin can be caused to flow back through the gate 5 by closing the die 2 and decreasing the holding pressure on the injection side. This backflow can be easily generated by sucking back the screw (not shown) of the injection nozzle. In the illustrated example, the gate 5 is a valve gate and the runner 7 is a hot runner as described above.
These may be direct gates and cold runners, but when performing backflow through the gate 5, it is necessary to prevent the gate 5 from being clogged with cooled resin and making it difficult to backflow. A combination is preferable.

Extrusion of the surplus molten resin from the cavity 1 is carried out by a sub-cavity (not shown) communicating with the cavity 1 in the mold 2 in addition to the reverse flow from the gate 5.
It is also possible to perform such a process by closing the mold 2 and pushing the excess resin into this sub-cavity so that the mold clamping is completed immediately after the sub-cavity is filled with the molten resin. Further, the communication between the cavity 1 and the sub-cavity can be opened and closed, and this communication is closed at the time of injection in the dimensionally open state, opened after completion of injection in the dimensionally open state, and closed again just before the completion of mold clamping. You can also do it. However, the backflow from the gate 5 by controlling the injection pressure is preferable because the labor for processing the mold 2 is not required and the control is easy.

In the open state shown in FIG. 1, since the cavity 1 is filled with the molten resin, even if the mold 2 is closed while the injection pressure is maintained, the male mold 2b is almost closed. Can't move forward. That is, since the molten resin filling the inside of the cavity 1 hardly changes in volume due to compression, it is mainly used in the main compression region 1
Only when pressure is applied to a, the male die 2b hardly moves forward, and particularly the secondary compression region 1b, which is long in the compression direction, receives almost no pressure. As shown in FIG. 3, when the inclination of the secondary compression region 1b with respect to the opening / closing direction of the mold 2 is θ and the cavity 1 is filled with the molten resin and the mold 2 is closed by the force of P, the secondary compression is performed. The pressure acting on the region 1b is P · sin θ, and it is clear that the pressure is extremely small. In addition, in FIG. 3, the position indicated by the alternate long and short dash line is the position of the male mold 2b in the open state.

As in the present invention, at the time of closing operation of the mold 2 from the open state shown in FIG. 1 to the mold clamping state shown in FIG. 2, a part of the molten resin in the cavity 1 is moved to the outside of the cavity 1. When the male mold 2b is pushed out, the excess molten resin that interferes with the mold clamping is discharged, so that the male mold 2b can be advanced by the compression stroke S 1 of the mold 2 for mold clamping. When the male mold 2b advances by the compression stroke S 1 and is clamped, the secondary compression region 1b is compressed by S 1 · sin θ and the thickness thereof changes. Letting S 1 · sin θ be the effective compression stroke S 2 of the secondary compression region 1 b, the secondary compression region 1 b undergoes compression accompanied by a thickness change corresponding to the effective compression stroke S 2 and the pressure between the secondary compression region 1 b and the main compression region 1 a. Will be balanced and internal pressure will be increased.

In the present invention, basically, by increasing the effective compression stroke S 2 , the thickness change of the secondary compression region 1b, that is, the secondary compression, occurs between the open state of the mold 2 and the clamped state. The amount of compression in the region 1b is increased to increase the pressure in the sub-compression region 1b. Therefore,
The effective compression stroke S 2 is preferably 0.02 mm or more, and particularly preferably 0.05 mm or more. If the effective compression stroke S 2 is too small, it becomes difficult to increase the pressure in the secondary compression region 1b. The upper limit of the effective compression stroke S 2 is theoretically not particularly limited, but even if it is excessively increased, the molding cycle is extended and the actual profit is poor.

The cavity 1 in the vicinity of the outlet from which a part of the molten resin is extruded during the closing operation of the mold 2 from the open state to the closed state, for example, the vicinity of the gate 5 in the illustrated example.
Although the internal pressure of the cavity 1 drops to some extent, the pressure drop range in the cavity 1 stays within a very limited range near the outflow port because the resin has viscosity and the interval between the cavities 1 is narrow. To restore the pressure in this pressure drop region, the extrusion of the excess molten resin from the cavity 1 is terminated immediately before the completion of the mold clamping, and the remaining mold 2 until the completion of the mold clamping is completed.
It can be performed by compression by the closing operation of. However, in order to maintain the entire pressure in the sub compression region 1b as high as possible, the outlet, for example, the gate 5 in the case of reverse flow through the gate 5 and the communication portion with the cavity 1 in the case of providing the sub cavity. Is preferably provided in the main compression region 1a and is separated from the sub compression region 1b as much as possible.
In particular, when a part of the molten resin is made to flow back through the gate 5, the secondary injection is performed after completion of the mold clamping, and a part or all of the molten resin that has flowed back is pressed into the cavity 1 again.
This is preferable because it is possible to surely recover the pressure in the pressure drop region.

The molded product molded according to the present invention is a mold 2
Is formed by a cavity 1 having a main compression region 1a that is substantially perpendicular to the opening and closing direction of and a sub compression region 1b extending from the main compression region 1a with a gradient with respect to the opening and closing direction of the mold 2. For example, a box or a container. An example is a box or container as shown in FIG. The gradient of the secondary compression region 1b may be provided as a so-called draft gradient or may be provided according to the design of the molded product. In addition, for example, in the case of a box or container as shown in FIG. 5, this gradient appears on the side wall portion 8, but as shown in FIG. 6A, the entire side wall portion has a gradient θ. In either case, as shown in FIG. 6 (b), only the inner surface side of the side wall portion has the slope θ. That is, the gradient θ of the secondary compression region 1b is determined by the female die 2a and the male die 2b in the secondary compression region 1b.
When both cavity surfaces are formed almost equally,
It does not matter if it is formed only on the cavity surface of the male mold 2b in the secondary compression region 1b.

From this viewpoint, the gradient θ is 0.3. It is preferable that the angle is about 45 °. If the gradient θ is less than 0.3 °, a sufficient effective compression stroke S 2 cannot be obtained unless the compression stroke S 1 is extremely large, and the molding efficiency tends to decrease.

The part (the left end side in the figure) is pushed in the mold clamping direction. At this time, since the resin in contact with the cavity surface is already being cooled, there is a possibility that a defect may occur in the pushed-in portion. In order to prevent this, as shown in FIG. 7, it is preferable to use a mold 2 having a slide core 3 on the side of the female mold 2a that defines the tip surface of the secondary compression region 1b. The slide core 3 is divided into two or more parts in accordance with the shape of the cavity 1 (the shape of the molded product) so that the cavity 1 can be opened by sliding in a direction perpendicular to the opening / closing direction of the mold 2. It is what For example, when the molded product has a plane circular shape as shown in FIG. 5, it is usually divided into two parts, and when it is a square shaped product, it is usually divided into four parts.

The injection compression molding method of the present invention can be carried out as long as the injection molding apparatus is capable of holding and holding the mold 2 in the open state and injecting the mold 2 from that state. However, an injection molding apparatus capable of holding the mold 2 in the open state against the injection pressure is usually an expensive apparatus equipped with a computer controller. Therefore, in order to carry out the injection compression molding method of the present invention with a simple device, it is preferable to use the mold 2 having the stopper means 4 as shown in FIGS. 8 to 10.

In the above description, the molten resin is injected in the closed state of the mold 2 without applying the mold clamping force. However, after the mold 2 is opened or semi-opened as shown in FIG. Needless to say, the molten resin may be injected. However, in the mold 2 described with reference to FIGS. 8 to 10, it is difficult to set the inflated state or the half-opened state as shown in FIG. 8 before the injection of the molten resin. Therefore, as shown in FIG. 11, if the spring 14 is interposed between the female die 2a and the male die 2b, this inflated state or half-opened state can be reliably obtained.

On the other hand, according to the present invention, it is possible to reduce the filling pressure of the molten resin into the cavity 1 by injecting the resin in the slightly open state or the half open state, and further, in the cavity 1 during the mold clamping operation. By making the molten resin of (1) flow backward to the injection cylinder side, it is possible to reduce the thickness of the molded product.
In other words, even a thin-walled molded product or a large molded product can be reliably molded without using an extremely high injection pressure.
