Abstract

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To perform accurate weighing or compression without being restricted by the shape of a product in the so-called high pressure injection molding and to also enable the molding of multiple products. SOLUTION: In high pressure injection molding, a movable mold 2 is opened by resin pressure when a mold is filled with a resin R and, thereafter, mold clamping force is increased to close a gate 9 while closing the movable mold 2. By this constitution, pressure control and weighing are performed and the pressure and amt. of the resin in a cavity 3 become constant. The material passage 7 formed in a fixed mold 1 is allowed to directly communicate with the cavity 3 in order to shorten the material passage 7 so as to be capable of performing accurate weighing or compression. Therefore, the gate 9 is closed by fitting the protruding gate closing part 22 provided to the movable mold 2 in the leading end part 7a of the material passage 7. In order to enable accurate weighing or compression regardless of the shape of a product, the gate 9 is set to the position corresponding to the outside surface along a mold opening and closing direction of the product.

2. Description of the Related Art In the so-called high-pressure injection molding which has recently been adopted, as a cavity is filled with resin, the movable die is retracted in the opening direction by the resin pressure, and then the mold clamping force is increased. When the mold is finally closed, the mold structure is such that the gate closes midway.Until the gate is closed, the excess resin in the cavity is returned to the molding material supply device such as the heating cylinder and the gate is closed. After closing, the resin in the cavity is compressed. In this way, the amount and pressure of the resin in the cavity at the time when the gate is closed are made constant by the process of opening the movable mold by the resin pressure and the process of returning the resin in the cavity to the molding material supply device side (measurement and To regulate).

In the conventional high-pressure injection molding, for example, a movable plate is movably assembled to a fixed base in the mold opening / closing direction, and a spring is provided between the base and the movable plate so that the mold clamping force is weak. A material passage is formed between the moving plate and the movable die (die dividing surface) to strengthen the mold clamping force, and at the time of final die closing, the gate closing part provided in the fixed die causes the material passage to move to the cavity. The side gate of is closed.

However, as described above, if the material passage is formed between the moving plate and the movable die, the material passage becomes longer by that much, and therefore the molding material reaching the cavity is formed. The hardening also becomes large. Therefore, during weighing and compression, the resin in the cavity cannot be smoothly returned to the molding material supply device side, accurate measurement cannot be performed, and the mold clamping force may be insufficient to compress the product to a predetermined size.

In the case of an in-line screw type, for example, the resin R is supplied from the heating cylinder device until the screw reaches a predetermined position such as the forward limit. Along with this, the resin pressure in the cavity 3 pushes down the movable mold 2 against the mold clamping force as shown by the solid line and the chain line in FIG. 3, and the fixed mold 1 and the movable mold 2 open. This opening amount is determined by the balance between the resin pressure in the cavity 3 and the force of the spring 32 and the mold clamping force, and becomes larger as more resin R is filled in the cavity 3. In other words, even if there is an error in the amount of the resin R supplied from the heating cylinder device, the error is absorbed by the change in the opening amount, and the pressure of the resin in the cavity 3 is adjusted and becomes constant (pressure adjustment).

After the resin R in the cavity 3 is sufficiently cooled and solidified, the mold is opened as shown in FIG. For a short while after this mold opening is started, the fluid pressure drive device 12
The valve pin 11 is lowered together with the movable mold 2 by driving the. When the valve pin 11 reaches the lower limit of the fixed mold 1, the side opening 13b of the escape path 13 of the valve pin 11 is opened.
Is closed by the side surface of the tip end portion 7a of the material passage 7. Until then, the state where the reverse taper surface 14 of the valve pin 11 and the taper surface 24 of the gate blocking portion 22 abut against each other is maintained. In this way, when the fixed die 1 and the movable die 2 are open, the side opening 13b of the escape passage 13 is closed and the escape passage 13 is cut off from the material passage 7 in the valve casing 8. The resin R which is in a molten state in the material passage 7 does not leak from the tip end opening 13a of the escape passage 13. Although the resin R remains in the escape passage 13 and the resin R is also kept in a substantially molten state, the volume of the escape passage 13 is very small, and the escape is blocked from the material passage 7. Since no great pressure is applied to the path 13,
The resin R inside does not leak out from the tip end opening 13a. Even if it leaks out, it is a small amount and does not cause malfunction of the mold device or molding failure.

Further, in this mold apparatus, since the tip end portion 7a of the material passage 7 in the fixed die 1 directly communicates with the cavity 3, the material passage in the fixed die is further passed through the material passage formed on the mold dividing surface. Material passage 7 rather than reaching the cavity
Can be shortened as a whole. Therefore, the resin R in the cavity 3 can smoothly return to the material passage 7 during the measuring step due to less hardening of the resin R due to cooling until reaching the cavity 3. The resin R can smoothly return to the heating cylinder device 12. At the same time, the resin R in the cavity 3 is smoothly compressed after the measuring step, and the mold clamping force of the mold clamping device may be relatively low. Therefore, the metering and compression can be accurately performed without impairing the pressure regulation result in the pressure regulation process, and the features of the high pressure injection molding can be maximized.
Further, since the resistance is small, the time required for the measuring step and the compression step is shortened, which is also advantageous in increasing the speed of the molding cycle.

Moreover, since the resin R in the material passage 7 in the mold apparatus is always kept in a molten state by the heating of the heater 10, the resin R in the cavity 3 becomes even smoother during the measuring step. The resin R in the material passage 7 can return to the heating cylinder device 12 more smoothly. Therefore, the above-mentioned effects such as accurate measurement and compression can be further utilized.

Further, the tip of the material passage 7 in the fixed mold 1
In order to directly communicate 7a with the cavity 3, the gate 9 is closed by fitting the convex gate closing portion 22 of the movable mold 2 to the tip end portion 7a of the material passage 7 with the final mold closure. However, since the gate 9 is formed by arranging the tip end portion 7a of the material passage 7 at a position corresponding to the outer surface of the product P along the mold opening / closing direction, the shape of the product P is not limited. The tip 7a of the material passage 7 in the fixed mold 1 can be directly communicated with the cavity 3. For example, even if the product P has no opening, the material passage 7 in the fixed mold 1

At the same time, forming the gate 9 by arranging the tip end portion 7a of the material passage 7 at a position corresponding to the outer side surface of the product P along the mold opening / closing direction means forming the gate 9 even if a plurality of pieces are taken. It is possible to directly communicate the tip portion 7a of the single material passage 7 in each cavity 3 with each other. Then, the gate 9 to each cavity 3 can be simultaneously opened and closed by one common gate closing portion 22 and valve pin 11.
As a result, the mold apparatus can be downsized and the structure of the mold apparatus can be simplified.

Further, as described above, the gate closing portion 22 is fitted to the tip end portion 7a of the material passage 7 during the metering process to the compression process, while the gate 9 is closed by the valve pin 11 when the mold is opened. On the other hand, when the valve pin 11 is fitted into the gate 9, the escape passage 13 formed in the valve pin 11 returns the resin R between the tip end surfaces of the valve pin 11 and the gate closing portion 22 into the material passage 7. It is possible to prevent the resin R from remaining between the tip surfaces of the valve pin 11 and the gate closing portion 22 and leaking out when the mold is opened. Moreover, since the side surface opening 13b of the escape passage 13 is closed by the side surface of the tip end portion 7a of the material passage 7 when the mold is opened, the gate 9 can be reliably closed. In this way, the reliability of the mechanism for opening and closing the gate 9 can be maintained.
