    摘要: Split molds are mounted upon a plurality of platens having parallel faces reciprocating within the reciprocating linear movement of clamping means in an injection molding machine. Each mold cavity is filled through one or more nozzles extending from a fixed manifold portion of the machine, each nozzle having a tip at least intermittently fitting against a nozzle seat. Length adjustment means are provided for each nozzle, whereby the molding machine is operable at a plurality of temperatures, while still having a reciprocatingly retractable leakproof fit between certain nozzle tips and their nozzle seats.

    摘要: GAS IS INJECTED INTO A FLOWING STREAM OF MOLTEN PLASTIC TO PROVIDE A MIXTURE CONTAINING AN AMOUNT OF GAS WHICH AT AMBIENT CONDITIONS WOULD CONSTITUTE ABOUT 10% TO ABOUT 98% OF THE VOLUME OF THE MIXTURE. A RELATIVELY THIN, LARGE DIAMETER ANNULAR STREAM OF MOLTEN PLASTIC ADVANCES THROUGH THE MIXING ZONE, THE GAS BEING INJECTED INTO THE MIXTURE THROUGH AT LEAST ONE OF THE GENERALLY CYLINDRICAL WALLS OF THE MIXING ZONE. OF PARTICULAR IMPORTANCE, THE GAS IS INJECTED THROUGH A POROUS WALL HAVING MORE THAN A THOUSAND OPENINGS PPER SQUARE CENTIMETER, SUCH AS AN ULTRA-FINE SINTERED GLASS FIBRE TYPE OF GAS DIFFUSION MEMBER. EACH OF THE WALLS OF THE MIXING ZONE IS DESIRABLY TAPERED, SO THAT THE THICKNESS OF THE MOLTEN CELLULAR PLASTIC EFFUENT IS GREATER THAN THE THICKNESS OF THE ENTERING STREAM. THE MIXTURE ADVANCES THROUGH A LENGTH OF MIXING ZONE WHICH IS FROM ABOUT TEN TO ABOT ONE HUNDRED TIME THE MARGINAL INCREASE IN THICKNESS OF THE STREAM. THE EFFUENT FROM THE MIXING ZONE FLOWS THROUGH A HEATED STABILIZATION ZONE WHICH IS SEVERAL TIMES LONGER THAN THE MIXING ZONE. THE STABILIZED MIXTURE CAN THEN BE RESHAPED FOR FLOWING INTO STREAMS UTILIZING THE MIXTURE OF MOLTEN PLASTIC AND GAS.

    摘要: PROGRAMMING, AND/OR DIFFERENTIAL PRESSURE PROGRAMMING FOR DIFFERENT ZONES OF THE ARTICLE. VARIOUS SUPPLEMENTAL AND/OR OPTIONAL FEATURES ARE DISCLOSED.

    GIANT SIZED PLASTIC ARTICLES ARE MASS PRODUCED WITH AUTOMATION BY LOW PRESSURE INJECTION MOLDING. AN ARTICLE IS DESIGNED TO ACHIEVE THE ULTIMATE ENGINEERING PERFORMANCE OF THE INTERNAL STRUCTURE IN RELATION TO ITS EXTERNAL SHAPE, THUS PROVIDING ZONES IN WHICH THE INTERNAL STRUCTURE IS DIFFERENT FROM OTHER ZONES, ANDSUCH DIFFERENCES ARE IMPARTED BY THE CONTROL OF THE MOLDING PROCESS. THE PROPORTIONS OF GAS AND MOLTEN PLASTIC ARE CAREFULLY CONTROLLED PRIOR TO THE ACCUMULATION OF THE FEED IN A BATCHING DEVICE. A SHOT OF FEED FLOWS THROUGH A DISTRIBUTION SYSTEM INTO A STRUCTURIZER MOLD HAVING CONTOURED WALLS OF LOW SPECIFIC HEAT AND HAVING HEAT TRANSFER MEANS PERMITTING DIFFERENTIAL PROGRAMMING OF THE TEMPERATURE OF DIFFERENT ZONES. BEFORE THE ARTICLE HAS SOLIDIFIED IN THE STRUCTURIZER MOLD, THE DESIRED DIFFERENCES IN INTERNAL STRUCTURE ARE IMPARTED BY REASON OF THE DIFFERENTIAL TEMPERATURE

    摘要: Molds are produced by providing a master of relatively inexpensive material, preferably wood. The wood is coated with a material which will have the texture and dimensions of the end product to be produced. The coating material must be inert to a plating solution and must be conductive to permit deposition of the plating solution thereon. The master thus produced is electroformed to provide a metallic envelope of copper, nickel, or mixtures thereof thereabout. A box, open at one end, including a rear plate and peripheral frame members is provided for each contoured wall. Wax rods are mounted on the electroformed envelope. The wax rods communicate with the ends of metal tubing. A layer of silicone rubber or similar material is applied over the wax rods and the ends of the tubing. The wax rods are melted thus forming heat transfer conduits. An insulating foundation of polymethane is foamed in place between the rear face of the boxes and the rear face of the contoured walls. Thereafter, the electroformed envelope is severed about its periphery and the mold halves are removed for use with low pressure injection molding apparatus. Floating connectors associate the contoured walls of the mold with the frame members of the box so that relative thermal expansion of the box independently of the contoured walls is possible.

    摘要: Giant articles of cellular plastic are molded in injection molding apparatus. Each of a plurality of injection nozzles comprises a bore in which an injection plunger reciprocates between a withdrawn position at which the tip of the injection plunger rests during the brief mold-filling step and an advanced position at which the tip rests during much of the prolonged step of cooling the molded article. As the plunger advances from its withdrawn position, it first acts as a valve to discontinue flow of the plastic into the nozzle bore and then during a principal portion of its advancing stroke, the injection plunger purges the residual cellular plastic between an inlet orifice and the nozzle tip and forces it into the mold. Only in the final stages of the withdrawing stroke does the tip of the injection plunger expose the inlet orifice to open the valve to renew the flow of cellular plastic to the mold. Power means such as a hydraulic cylinder for each injection plunger actuates the reciprocation. The improvement concerns means provided to each injection plunger as soon as it had completed a selected major amount of its withdrawing stroke so that it is temporarily braked at a position near the brink of valve-opening position. Sensors detect and provide signals while an injection plunger is thus braked at a brink of opening position. A simultaneity control system detects the signals and responds as soon as the signals establish that every injection plunger is at such brink of opening position, and then simultaneously releases the brake for each and all of the injection plungers, which then move to the fully withdrawn positions, thereby simultaneously opening all of the valves. More reproducible articles are molded when the plurality of nozzles are reliably opened with improved simultaneity than when the injection plungers withdrawn by the plurality of hydraulic cylinders by a single stage movement.

    摘要: Each of the two sections of a separable mold for a giant plastic article includes a box having a contoured wall as one end face. The giant article is molded in the cavity defined by the pair of contoured walls. Each contoured wall is thin, heat conductive, and of low specific heat. A plurality of conduits on the rear face of each contoured wall direct the flow of heat transfer fluid to regulate the temperature of a zone of the contoured wall. A relatively high density cellular polyurethane serves as an insulating foundation between the rear face of a contoured wall and the plate of the box and also provides support for the contoured wall. A relatively thin layer of silicone rubber or like material is provided between the cellular polyurethane and each contoured wall. The contoured wall can undergo thermal expansion or contraction throughout or in selected zones without losing its bond to such cellular foundation. Floating connectors associate the contoured walls with frame members of the box, whereby relative thermal expansion of the box independently of the contoured wall is possible.

    摘要: Gas is injected into a flowing stream of molten plastic to provide a mixture containing an amount of gas which at ambient conditions would constitute about 10 percent to about 98 percent of the volume of the mixture. A relatively thin, large diameter annular stream of molten plastic advances through the mixing zone, the gas being injected into the mixture through at least one of the generally cylindrical walls of the mixing zone. Of particular importance, the gas is injected through a porous wall having more than a thousand openings per square centimeter, such as an ultra-fine sintered glass filter type of gas diffusion member. Each of the walls of the mixing zone is desirably tapered, so that the thickness of the molten cellular plastic effluent is greater than the thickness of the entering stream. The mixture advances through a length of mixing zone which is from about 10 to about 100 times the marginal increase in thickness of the stream. The effluent from the mixing zone flows through a heated stabilization zone which is several times longer than the mixing zone. The stabilized mixture can then be reshaped for flowing into streams utilizing the mixture of molten plastic and gas.
