摘要:
A three level stack mold machine comprising a machine frame, a fixed platen mounted on the frame, guide rails mounted on the frame, a movable platen mounted on the guide rails and two carriages mounted on the guide rails between the fixed platen and the movable platen. A hot runner plate is mounted on the fixed platen and water manifolds are mounted on each carriage assembly. Each manifold has water connectors extending upwardly therefrom. A hot runner plate is mounted on each manifold and connected to a first group of the water connectors. A core plate is mounted on the movable platen and connected to water connectors extending upwardly from a water manifold attached to the movable platen. Core plates are mounted on the hot runner plates on the carriage assemblies. The core plates have water connectors on a bottom surface thereof connected to a second group of the water connectors. Cavity plates are mounted on the hot runner plates and connected to hot runner nozzles extending out of the hot runner plates. The cavity plates are orientated in a uniform direction. Air connectors are provided at a top surface of the core plates and electrical connectors at a top surface of the hot runners.

A platen (50) for a molding machine includes an intermediate support structure (20) between two planar walls (16, 18) having ribs (40) arranged at a non-normal angle b to a first wall (18). The ribs (40) couple forces from the first wall (18) to the second wall (16) in such a way that bending of the second wall (16) is resisted. This adds to the rigidity of the second wall (16) and hence the platen (50), adding to flatness of the arrangement. Gussets (42) may be provided extending between the ribs (40) and the intermediate support structure (20). This has the effect of surrounding and supporting an injection bore (14) and further adding to the coupling of forces to the edge portions of the second wall (16) to resist forces acting to bend the wall.

There is provided a molding machine comprising a suspended component having a first wing and an opposed second wing projecting from opposite sides of the suspended component. A first linear way is provided by the first wing, and a second linear way is provided below the second wing. A first pad is slidably received on the first linear way below the first wing, and a second pad is slidably received on the second linear way below the second wing. A force generator is disposed between the first wing and the first pad, and a force generator is disposed between the second wing and the second pad.

An injection molding machine includes a movable platen specifically adapted to uniformly distribute a clamp force to the mold half surfaces thereby reducing localized deflections and unwanted flash on the molded article. The mold movable platen (10) is adapted to be slidably carried on at least one rail (40) of an injection molding machine (11), the platen (10) comprising: a substantially rectangular front face (12) specially adapted to carry a mold half (26a); a back face (14) parallel to and spaced from the front face (12) specifically adapted to interface with a clamp (20), said clamp being attached substantially in the center of the back face and applying a force substantially perpendicular to the front face (12); a wall (46,48) having a predetermined thickness and height protruding rearward from the periphery of the front face; a plurality of spaced apart ribs (18) extending in a predetermined pattern between and interconnecting each of the back face (14), the wall (46,48) and the front face (12), wherein the force from the clamp (20) is substantially uniformly transmitted from the back face to the front face thereby creating a uniform sealing pressure distribution during clamp-up.

An injection unit (10) of an injection system, comprising a shooting pot (12) having a shooting pot head (13) at one end, defining a melt chamber (14) therein; a melt inlet channel (16) for laterally bringing melt into the melt chamber (14); a plunger (26) arranged in the melt chamber (14), the plunger (26) being linearly moveable from a retracted position into an extended position, so as to force melt accumulated in the melt chamber (14) through a melt outlet channel (20) arranged in said shooting pot head (13) into an injection mold; an annular melt passage (28) provided between the melt chamber (14) and the plunger (26), for allowing the melt to flow from the melt inlet channel (16) to an outlet end (18) of the melt chamber (14); and a melt distribution channel (30) for distributing the melt from the melt inlet channel (16) to the annular melt passage (28). An important aspect of the invention is that the melt distribution channel (30) tapers towards an apex (32) of the melt distribution channel (30) distal from the melt inlet channel (16) so as to ensure even distribution of the melt to the annular melt passage (28).
摘要:
A mechanism (10) for applying a clamping force to a columnar member (20), such as a tiebar, is described. The clamping mechanism includes a compressible member (22) surrounding the columnar member (20) for gripping the columnar member and transmitting a clamping force thereto, which compressible member is slidable along the columnar member. The mechanism further includes a clamping piston (40) for applying a clamping force, which clamping piston (40) has a bore (44) with an engaging surface (46) for receiving and frictionally engaging the compressible member (22). The frictional engagement between the compressible member (22) and the engaging surface (46) prevents any relative sliding movement between the compressible member and the clamping piston. The mechanism still further includes a sliding piston (50) for applying a clamping force and for causing the compressible member (22) to slide along the columnar member from an initial position to a preload position where the compressible member (22) is compressed by contact with the engaging surface (46) as the compressible member moves between the positions. Compression of the compressible member causes it to grip the columnar member and apply an initial clamping force. The main clamping force is applied to the compressible member and hence to the tiebar by moving the clamping piston (40) to a clamping position. A method for applying a clamping force to a mold using the clamp mechanism of the present invention is also described.
