DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION The present invention relates to injection plunger speed control of an injection molding machine for a plastic molding machine, and in particular, to improve the quality of molded products by uniformly stabilizing the speed pattern for each shot regarding the plunger speed. The present invention relates to an injection plunger speed control device as described above.

In order to improve the quality of plastic molded products produced by injection molding machines, technical ideas have recently been proposed to control the injection plunger speed during the injection process. A concrete example of this idea is, for example, a limit switch LS that is installed at an appropriate position in the stroke direction of the injection plunger and a dog that is attached so as to be moved together with the injection plunger.
When turned on, the injection plunger speed is controlled in stages by changing the oil flow rate to the cylinder for driving the injection plunger to the oil flow rate corresponding to that position.

Furthermore, in the above case, the dog/limit switch system is changed to a rack pinion system, a potentiometer is connected to the same pinion gear, and an analog voltage corresponding to the stroke position of the plunger is generated.
Some oil pumps compare the same analog voltage with preset voltages corresponding to each stroke position and use the matching signal as the oil flow rate change signal.

However, such speed control is a process in which molten resin is sent out by an injection plunger, and the actual speed at the set position of the injection plunger varies from the set speed, and the speed pattern for each shot is the set speed. It was not the same as the pattern and was unstable.

However, recent demands on molded products have become more stringent. For example, a high-precision analog voltage generator is required to set the speed switching position, and a large number of switching positions (7 to 8 or more) are required in one stroke, and the switching positions themselves are required. For example, it may be necessary to be able to remotely modify each molding cycle.

In the end, in response to the increasing demands for uniformity of quality for plastic molded products and reduction of shape and size errors for the same molded product, considering the cost of the entire speed control system, the entire speed control system has to be replaced by a conventional analog system. There are various difficulties involved in configuring the system.

In order to fundamentally solve these problems, the present invention uses a linear scale that generates pulses, which is commonly used in machine tools, etc., to generate a pulse every minute movement of the injection plunger during injection. It is an object of the present invention to provide a control device that at least detects the plunger position, converts the actual speed into an analog value, and performs speed closed-loop control so that the same pulse is obtained for the set speed.

以下図面により上述の制御装置を説明する。 The above control device will be explained below with reference to the drawings.

In FIG. 1, a shaft 14 of an injection plunger protrudes from an injection cylinder 13 via a thrust bearing 12 at the right end of a screw 11 of an injection molding machine.
A position detection head 15 is coupled to the coaxial head 14 and is mounted so as to be moved integrally with the coaxial 14 in the X direction (the stroke direction of the injection plunger).
is disposed facing the linear scale 16, and a pulse PT is generated from the detection head 15 as the shaft 14 of the injection plunger moves. Incidentally, the screw 11 is rotated by the motor M via the spline joint 17 and the reduction gear train 18 independently of the movement of the injection plunger described above. Reference numeral 21 denotes an electromagnetic proportional flow control valve, which receives electric signals RMV and LMV corresponding to the right stroke and left stroke of the injection plunger shaft 14, and controls the flow rate to the injection cylinder 13 according to a control signal from the speed control device 31. It is possible to arbitrarily change the speed of the screw 11 by adjustment.

As explained above, the position in the injection process is generated by the injection plunger moving speed control device in digitized quantities, and correspondingly, each speed switching position is once set in registers R 1 and R 2 using a thumbwheel switch, daisy switch, etc. After setting ......, as shown by the dotted line in Figure 3, the corrected command value signal is sent at a location that can be centrally controlled, separate from the injection device of the molding machine.
It is possible to automatically increase or decrease the value using SG 1 , SG 2, etc., and the injection molding conditions such as resin temperature, viscosity, and pressure in the injection molding machine are measured for each shot, and the injection speed is changed based on that. It has become possible to automatically correct the position sequentially. In the conventional analog system, this requires rotating parts for a large number of potentiometers, which is impractical in terms of cost, accuracy, and service life.

The same thing is also done for the speed signal setting section 31-2A. That is, the speed value set by the setting section 31-2A is stored in a register, and it is easily possible to automatically increase or decrease this stored value one by one based on the above-mentioned molding conditions.

In addition, in the present invention, a speed feedback closed loop (velocity closed loop control) is formed and the pulse train PT from the detection head is compared with the control section 31-3.
Since the injection plunger follows the changed speed setting value well, the injection speed pattern is stabilized at the set speed pattern, so the molded product is molded at the set speed and the quality is stably improved. .
