摘要:
An injection molding machine nozzle capable of letting heat escape from a nozzle end portion and preventing the occurrence of cobwebbing with a simple structure. A heat conducting member is mounted on the nozzle end portion. When the end of the nozzle is contacted against a mold the heat conducting member also contacts the mold. The heat conducting member is composed of the material having heat conductivity equal to or greater than that of the nozzle. The heat of the nozzle end portion is conducted to the heat conducting member and released at the mold, thus preferentially cooling only melted resin of the nozzle end portion. Cobwebbing does not occur even when the mold is opened and the molded article is removed because the melted resin of the muzzle end portion has been cooled.

Screw rotation speeds and screw rotating torques are measured at predetermined time intervals during metering and substituted into a previously-assumed function to determine a maximum screw rotating torque at each screw rotation speed. An allowable upper limit of screw rotating torque is set for each screw rotation speed on the basis of the determined maximum screw rotating torque. If a screw rotating torque exceeding the allowable upper limit is detected during metering after the allowable upper limit is set, the screw rotation is stopped or changed.

A notched region in which the outer periphery of a screw flight is cut out is provided in a molding material feed screw. A wedge-shaped portion is formed by both a front wall surface of the screw flight and a wall surface of the boundary where the outer periphery of the screw flight is cut out. As a result of rotation of the molding material feed screw, since the wedge-shaped portion advances while pushing aside resin pellets located in the front thereof in two lateral directions of the front wall surface of the screw flight and the wall surface of the boundary where the outer diameter of the screw flight is cut out, entrapment of the resin pellets between the edge of a material supply port of a molding material supply device and the outer periphery of the screw flight is avoided as much as possible.

An injection molding machine estimates a check valve wear amount, making it possible to predict a check valve use limit. At start of injection, the check valve is at a position advanced a stroke S0 with respect to a screw position (a position of a check seat that contacts the check valve and closes a resin flow channel). As the screw advances, the check valve retreats and closes when the screw moves a distance X0. When the check valve is worn ΔS (S1=S0+ΔS), it closes when the screw moves X1. Since the check valve stroke and the distance the screw moves until the check valve closes are proportional, S0/X0=S1/X1=a. Therefore, ΔS=aX1−S0, and the wear amount ΔS can be obtained by detecting the check valve closing position X1 and using this position X1 and the known stroke S0. The closing position is detected from the peak value of rotational force acting on the screw. Once the wear amount is obtained, the check valve use limit can be predicted from an allowable value of wear.
