OBJETO DE LA INVENCIÓNOBJECT OF THE INVENTION
Los sectores de Ia técnica a los que se refiere Ia presente invención son el metal y el químico, y dentro de los mismos, y de forma conjunta, su aplicación principal se circunscribe a Ia inyección de moldes con coladas submarinas de piezas de material termoplástico.The sectors of the technique to which the present invention refers are metal and chemical, and within them, and together, its main application is limited to the injection of molds with underwater castings of thermoplastic material parts .
El objeto principal de Ia presente invención es simplificar, facilitar y asegurar Ia extracción de coladas submarinas localizadas en Ia parte fija de los moldes de inyección para termoplásticos.The main object of the present invention is to simplify, facilitate and ensure the extraction of underwater castings located in the fixed part of the injection molds for thermoplastics.
ANTECEDENTES DE LA INVENCIÓNBACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
Los procesos de inyección de plástico consisten en calentar los pellets de un material termoplástico para transformarlos en un tipo masa a través de un cilindro de plastificación, dándole Ia forma final al molde.The plastic injection processes consist of heating the pellets of a thermoplastic material to transform them into a mass type through a plasticizing cylinder, giving the mold the final shape.
Cuando el plástico está en el molde, se enfría por medio de circuitos donde fluye agua y finalmente, se abre el molde para obtener una pieza sólida.When the plastic is in the mold, it is cooled by means of circuits where water flows and finally, the mold is opened to obtain a solid piece.
Las máquinas de inyección tienen sistemas hidráulicos, los cuales controlan el movimiento de los sistemas de inyección y cierre; y sistemas eléctricos, que controlan temperaturas, flujo de agua, aceite, etc. La colada fría es un componente de Ia pieza Inyectada y necesita ciclos de inyección más largos. Este sistema es aplicado para piezas pequeñas. Los canales fríos llevan el plástico a las cavidades del molde y no cuentan con sistemas de control de temperatura como los sistemas de colada y canal calientes.Injection machines have hydraulic systems, which control the movement of injection and closure systems; and electrical systems, which control temperatures, water flow, oil, etc. Cold casting is a component of the Injected part and needs longer injection cycles. This system is applied for small parts. The cold channels take the plastic to the mold cavities and do not have temperature control systems such as hot and cast channel systems.
Las principales características de los moldes de inyección de plástico de colada y canal fríos son: tiempos de ciclo altos, mecanismo de desmoldeo complicado, gran cantidad de desperdicio de material, difícil repetitividad del producto, distancias (carreras) de apertura del molde muy grandes y proyección / distribución de las cavidades compleja.The main features of cold cast and channel plastic injection molds are: high cycle times, complicated demoulding mechanism, large amount of material waste, difficult product repeatability, very large mold opening distances (runs) and projection / distribution of complex cavities.
Además, en aquellas piezas en las que es necesaria una manipulación para separarlas de Ia colada, hay que afrontar el consiguiente encarecimiento de coste en tiempo y dinero.In addition, in those parts where manipulation is necessary to separate them from the laundry, the consequent increase in cost in time and money must be faced.
El camino del material hasta Ia cavidad debe ser Io más corto posible para, entre otras cosas, minimizar las pérdidas de presión y calor. Las piezas inyectadas se contraen sobre los machos del molde, para su desmoldeo se aplican diferentes tipos de expulsores: de varilla, tubular, de placa extractora, plano, combinado, neumático, con leva, etc.The path of the material to the cavity should be as short as possible to, among other things, minimize pressure and heat losses. The injected parts contract on the mold males, for their demolding different types of ejectors are applied: rod, tubular, extractor plate, flat, combined, pneumatic, with cam, etc.
El tipo de extractor o expulsor está en función de Ia forma de Ia pieza a inyectar. La presión superficial sobre Ia pieza a expulsar debe ser Ia mínima posible para evitar deformaciones.The type of extractor or ejector is a function of the shape of the piece to be injected. The surface pressure on the piece to be ejected must be the minimum possible to avoid deformations.
Los expulsores sirven no sólo para el desmoldeo, sino también para Ia evacuación de los gases de Ia cavidad. Una salida defectuosa de Ia cavidad puede tener como consecuencias un llenado parcial de Ia cavidad, unión defectuosa de frentes de material o el denominado efecto DieselThe ejectors serve not only for demolding, but also for the evacuation of gases from the cavity. A defective exit of the cavity can have as a consequence a partial filling of the cavity, defective union of material fronts or the so-called Diesel effect
(daños térmicos de Ia pieza). DESCRIPCIÓN DE LA INVENCIÓN(thermal damage of the piece). DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
El expulsor objeto de esta invención presenta unas ventajas de aplicación que se derivan de Ia posibilidad de realizar los procesos de inyección normalizados y automatizados sobre aquellas piezas en las que es obligada una manipulación para separarlas de Ia colada. Además y de forma comparativa con los actuales sistemas de expulsión disponibles comercialmente, se disminuye el alto riesgo de daño sobre el molde, evitando el desgaste funcional por rozamiento.The ejector object of this invention has some advantages of application that derive from the possibility of performing standardized and automated injection processes on those parts in which manipulation is required to separate them from the casting. In addition and in a comparative way with the current commercially available ejection systems, the high risk of damage to the mold is reduced, avoiding functional wear due to friction.
El expulsor comprende una varilla metálica que presenta como característica principal su extremo superior, cabezal, que muestra una configuración fungiforme, estableciendo sus dimensiones en función del tamaño de Ia colada y de Ia pieza termoplástica a extraer.The ejector comprises a metal rod that has as its main feature its upper end, head, which shows a fungiform configuration, establishing its dimensions depending on the size of the casting and the thermoplastic part to be extracted.
El expulsor simplifica, facilita (mediante su anclaje en Ia parte fija, entre las placas expulsadoras, de un molde de inyección para termoplásticos) y asegura Ia extracción de coladas submarinas localizadas en Ia parte fija (hembra) de los moldes de inyección para termoplásticos, sujetándolas en el momento de apertura del molde y evitando por tanto el agarre no deseado de las mismas, Io que obligaría a interrumpir el proceso de inyección y proceder a Ia extracción manual de Ia colada.The ejector simplifies, facilitates (by anchoring in the fixed part, between the ejector plates, an injection mold for thermoplastics) and ensures the extraction of underwater castings located in the fixed (female) part of the injection molds for thermoplastics, holding them at the time of opening the mold and thus avoiding unwanted grip of the same, which would force to interrupt the injection process and proceed to the manual extraction of the laundry.
