Description

本発明は、射出成形品の取出し方法及びその装置、より詳しくは、本体の縁部にアンダーカット部を有する射出成形品の型からの取出し方法及びその装置に関し、樹脂の射出成形の技術分野に属する。   The present invention relates to a method and apparatus for taking out an injection-molded product, and more particularly, to a method and apparatus for taking out an injection-molded product having an undercut portion at the edge of a main body, and relates to the technical field of resin injection molding. Belongs.

一般に、樹脂の射出成形においては、型締めしたキャビティ型とコア型とで形成されるキャビティに溶融状態の樹脂を射出し、樹脂がある程度冷却固化した段階で型開きし、コア型に残った射出成形品を例えば自重による落下であるいはロボットアーム等を用いて型から取り出すのであるが、この最後の成形品の取出しを円滑化するものとして、コア型のキャビティ形成面からピンを突出させて成形品をコア型から離型させるためのエジェクト機構がコア型の内部に備えられる。   In general, in resin injection molding, molten resin is injected into a cavity formed by a cavity mold and a core mold that are clamped, and the mold is opened after the resin has cooled and solidified to some extent, and the injection remaining in the core mold. The molded product is removed from the mold by dropping due to its own weight or using a robot arm or the like. To facilitate the removal of this last molded product, the molded product is made by projecting a pin from the cavity forming surface of the core mold. An eject mechanism for releasing the mold from the core mold is provided inside the core mold.

しかし、その結果、コア型の内部にエジェクト機構を収容するための比較的大きな空間が必要となり、型剛性が低下して、樹脂射出後で型開きまでの保圧期間中に型同士の合わせ面が緩んでバリが発生する不具合が生じる。   However, as a result, a relatively large space for accommodating the ejection mechanism is required inside the core mold, the mold rigidity is reduced, and the mating surfaces of the molds are held during the pressure holding period from resin injection to mold opening. This causes a problem that burrs occur due to loosening.

この問題に対しては、特許文献1や特許文献2に記載されているように、エジェクト機構に代えて、加圧気体を用いて成形品をコア型から離型させる技術を採用することが考えられる。例えば、特許文献1には、コア型の内部を通過してコア型のキャビティ形成面に至って開口する気体通路を設け、型開き後に、前記気体通路に加圧気体を供給して成形品の裏面側に加圧気体を噴出させつつ、さらにエジェクト機構で成形品をコア型から離型させる技術が記載されている。同様に、特許文献2にも、射出成形した成形品の裏面側に加圧気体を噴出させることで、成形品を型から離型させる技術が記載されている。これらの技術によれば、コア型の内部に比較的細い気体通路を設けるだけなので、型剛性低下ないしバリ発生の不具合が抑制される。   In order to solve this problem, as described in Patent Document 1 and Patent Document 2, it is considered to employ a technique for releasing the molded product from the core mold using a pressurized gas instead of the eject mechanism. It is done. For example, Patent Document 1 provides a gas passage that passes through the inside of the core mold and opens to the cavity forming surface of the core mold, and after the mold is opened, pressurized gas is supplied to the gas passage to back the molded product. A technique is described in which a molded product is released from a core mold by an eject mechanism while jetting pressurized gas to the side. Similarly, Patent Document 2 also describes a technique for releasing a molded product from a mold by ejecting a pressurized gas to the back side of the injection molded molded product. According to these techniques, since only a relatively thin gas passage is provided inside the core mold, the mold rigidity is reduced and the occurrence of burrs is suppressed.

特開2003−320563(段落0018)JP2003-320563 (paragraph 0018) 特許第3469647号(段落0023)Japanese Patent No. 3469647 (paragraph 0023)

ところで、従来、車両のバンパーのように、本体の形状が表面側に突出して湾曲する形状であり、この本体の縁部に本体の裏面側に曲折する取付フランジ等のアンダーカット部が設けられた構成の成形品を射出成形する場合は、図14に示すように、成形品の本体rの表面を成形するキャビティ型aと、成形品の本体rの裏面の一部を成形するコア型bと、このコア型bの内部に備えられて、成形品の本体rの裏面の残部、この裏面の残部と連続するアンダーカット部uの内面及びアンダーカット部uの端面を成形するスライドコアcとを用い、これらの型a,b,cを集合させて形成されるキャビティに溶融状態の樹脂を射出した後、キャビティ型aを矢印(i)のように移動させて型開きし、この型開きの後、スライドコアcを矢印(ii)のようにコア型bの内方へ移動させることにより、スライドコアcとアンダーカット部uとの干渉を回避し、その後、成形品を矢印(iii)のように移動させてコア型bから取り出すのが通例であるが、この場合も、コア型bの内部にスライドコアcやその移動機構を収容するための比較的大きな空間が必要となり、型剛性低下ないしバリ発生の不具合が生じる。   By the way, conventionally, like the bumper of a vehicle, the shape of the main body is a shape that protrudes and curves to the front surface side, and an undercut portion such as a mounting flange that bends to the back side of the main body is provided at the edge of the main body. In the case of injection molding of a molded product having a configuration, as shown in FIG. 14, a cavity mold a that molds the surface of the main body r of the molded product, and a core mold b that molds a part of the back surface of the main body r of the molded product. A slide core c provided inside the core mold b and forming the remaining part of the back surface of the main body r of the molded product, the inner surface of the undercut part u continuous with the remaining part of the back surface, and the end surface of the undercut part u. The molten resin is injected into a cavity formed by assembling these molds a, b, and c, and then the cavity mold a is moved as indicated by an arrow (i) to open the mold. After that, slide core c is moved to arrow (ii) Thus, by moving inward of the core mold b, interference between the slide core c and the undercut portion u is avoided, and then the molded product is moved as shown by an arrow (iii) and taken out from the core mold b. However, in this case as well, a relatively large space for accommodating the slide core c and its moving mechanism is required inside the core mold b, resulting in a decrease in mold rigidity and a problem of occurrence of burrs.

本発明は、表面側に突出して湾曲する形状の本体と、この本体の縁部で本体の裏面側に曲折するアンダーカット部とを有する成形品を射出成形する場合における前記のような問題に対処するもので、コア型の内部に比較的大きな空間を設けることなく、確実にコア型とアンダーカット部との干渉を回避し、その結果、型剛性低下ないしバリ発生の不具合を抑制しつつ、円滑に成形品をコア型から取り出すことの可能な射出成形品の取出し方法及びその装置を提供することを課題とする。   The present invention addresses the above-described problems in the case of injection molding a molded product having a main body that is curved to protrude to the front surface side, and an undercut portion that bends to the back side of the main body at the edge of the main body. Therefore, without providing a relatively large space inside the core mold, it is possible to reliably avoid interference between the core mold and the undercut portion, and as a result, smoothness while suppressing deterioration of mold rigidity or occurrence of burrs. It is another object of the present invention to provide a method and an apparatus for taking out an injection-molded product capable of taking out the molded product from the core mold.

An apparatus for taking out an injection molded product having an end face directed inward of the molded product from the mold, the first mold for molding the surface of the main body of the molded product, the back surface of the main body and the back surface of the main body. A second mold that molds the inner surface of the undercut portion; and a third mold that molds the outer surface of the undercut portion and the end surface of the undercut portion that are continuous with the surface of the main body. A gas passage is provided that passes through the interior of the mold and reaches the cavity forming surface of the second mold, and after the molten resin is injected into the cavity formed by collecting these molds, the first mold Move away from the second and third molds After the mold opening means and the first mold are separated, the third mold is moved to the outside of the second mold, so that the undercut portion of the molded product is removed from the second mold through the end face. Displacement means for displacing and a release means for releasing the molded product from the second mold and the third mold by supplying gas to the gas passage.

まず、請求項1、請求項5に記載の発明によれば、表面側に突出して湾曲する形状の本体と、この本体の縁部で本体の裏面側に曲折するアンダーカット部とを有する射出成形品を型から取り出す場合において、成形品の本体の表面を成形する第1の型と、成形品の本体の裏面及びこの裏面と連続するアンダーカット部の内面を成形する第2の型と、成形品の本体の表面と連続するアンダーカット部の外面及びアンダーカット部の端面を成形する第3の型とを用い、第1の型を型開きした後、第3の型を第2の型の外方へ移動させることにより、成形品のアンダーカット部を該アンダーカット部の端面を介して第2の型の外へ変位させ、これにより、第2の型とアンダーカット部との干渉を回避するようにしたから、第2の型の内部に第3の型やその移動機構を収容せずに済み、したがって第2の型の内部に比較的大きな空間を設ける必要がなくなり、型剛性低下ないしバリ発生の不具合が抑制されることとなる。   First, according to invention of Claim 1, Claim 5, it has injection molding which has the main body of the shape which protrudes and curves in the surface side, and the undercut part which bends in the back surface side of a main body at the edge of this main body When removing the product from the mold, a first mold for molding the surface of the main body of the molded product, a second mold for molding the back surface of the main body of the molded product and the inner surface of the undercut portion continuous with the back surface, and molding A third die that molds the outer surface of the undercut portion and the end surface of the undercut portion that are continuous with the surface of the main body of the product, and after opening the first die, the third die is the second die By moving outward, the undercut part of the molded product is displaced outside the second mold via the end face of the undercut part, thereby avoiding interference between the second mold and the undercut part. So that the third mold inside the second mold The moving mechanism requires without accommodation, thus there is no need to provide a relatively large space inside the second mold, so that the defect types reduction in rigidity or burrs can be suppressed.

また、確実に第2の型とアンダーカット部との干渉が回避されるから、円滑に成形品を第2の型及び第3の型から取り出すことが可能となる。   In addition, since the interference between the second mold and the undercut portion is reliably avoided, the molded product can be smoothly taken out from the second mold and the third mold.

さらに、第2の型の内部を通過して第2の型のキャビティ形成面に至る気体通路に気体を供給することにより、成形品を第2の型及び第3の型から離型させるようにしたから、第2の型の内部には比較的細い気体通路を設けるだけで済み、第2の型の内部に比較的大きな空間を設ける必要がなくなり、この点においても、型剛性低下ないしバリ発生の不具合が抑制されることとなる。   Furthermore, the molded product is released from the second mold and the third mold by supplying gas to a gas passage that passes through the inside of the second mold and reaches the cavity forming surface of the second mold. Therefore, it is only necessary to provide a relatively narrow gas passage in the second mold, and it is not necessary to provide a relatively large space in the second mold. Will be suppressed.

次に、請求項2に記載の発明によれば、成形品を離型させるための気体通路への気体の供給を、成形品のアンダーカット部を第2の型の外へ変位させるよりも前から行うようにしたので、前記気体の供給を前記変位の後に開始する場合に比べて、成形品を早い時期に型から取り出すことができ、成形サイクルが短縮されて、生産性の向上が図られることとなる。   Next, according to the invention described in claim 2, the gas supply to the gas passage for releasing the molded product is performed before the undercut portion of the molded product is displaced out of the second mold. As compared with the case where the gas supply is started after the displacement, the molded product can be taken out from the mold at an earlier time, the molding cycle is shortened, and the productivity is improved. It will be.

つまり、この請求項2に記載の発明は、成形品の離型のために気体等の流体を用いる場合は、エジェクト機構を用いる場合に比べて、応答性が低下し、気体通路への気体の供給を開始してから成形品が離型するまでに所定の時間がかかることに着目したもので、成形品の離型のための気体通路への気体の供給を、成形品のアンダーカット部を第2の型の外へ変位させるよりも前から行うことにより、成形品の離型をアンダーカット部の変位と同時あるいはアンダーカット部の変位の直後とすることが可能となる。   That is, in the invention according to claim 2, when a fluid such as a gas is used for releasing a molded product, the responsiveness is lowered as compared with the case where an eject mechanism is used. Focusing on the fact that it takes a certain amount of time from the start of supply until the molded product is released. Supply the gas to the gas passage for releasing the molded product, By performing from before the second die is displaced, it is possible to release the molded product simultaneously with the displacement of the undercut portion or immediately after the displacement of the undercut portion.

次に、請求項3に記載の発明によれば、離型した成形品を例えばロボットアーム等を用いて取り出す場合に、成形品の離型のための気体供給を続けながら成形品を取り出すようにしたので、成形品を型から引き離すときに、成形品の裏面と型のキャビティ形成面との間に発生する負圧を低減することができ、成形品に無理な力を作用させることなく円滑に短時間で成形品を型から取り出すことが可能となる。   Next, according to the third aspect of the present invention, when the molded product that has been released is taken out using, for example, a robot arm, the molded product is taken out while gas supply for releasing the molded product is continued. As a result, when the molded product is pulled away from the mold, the negative pressure generated between the back surface of the molded product and the cavity forming surface of the mold can be reduced, and it can be smoothly performed without applying excessive force to the molded product. The molded product can be removed from the mold in a short time.

特に、成形品の本体の形状が表面側に突出して湾曲する形状である場合は、例えば成形品の本体の形状が平坦な形状である場合に比べて、一般に、成形品の裏面と型のキャビティ形成面との間に発生する負圧が自然に解消されるには長い時間がかかるものである。この請求項3に記載の発明によれば、そのような場合でも、無理なく円滑に短時間で成形品を型から取り出すことが可能となるのである。   In particular, when the shape of the main body of the molded product is a shape that protrudes and curves to the front side, for example, compared with the case where the shape of the main body of the molded product is a flat shape, in general, the back surface of the molded product and the cavity of the mold It takes a long time for the negative pressure generated between the forming surface and the surface to be naturally eliminated. According to the third aspect of the invention, even in such a case, the molded product can be taken out of the mold smoothly and smoothly in a short time.

そして、請求項4に記載の発明によれば、車両のバンパーが、型剛性低下ないしバリ発生の不具合が抑制されながら、成形サイクルが短縮されながら、円滑に短時間で型から取り出されて、生産されることとなる。以下、発明の最良の実施の形態を通して本発明をさらに詳しく説述する。   According to the invention of claim 4, the bumper of the vehicle is smoothly removed from the mold in a short time while the molding cycle is shortened while the mold rigidity is reduced or the burr generation is suppressed. Will be. Hereinafter, the present invention will be described in more detail through the best mode of the invention.

キャビティ型駆動装置30は、例えば油圧装置等で構成され、キャビティ14に射出された樹脂Rがある程度冷却固化した段階でキャビティ型11をコア型12及び外捲りコア13から離反させて型開きするためのものである(型開き手段)。   The cavity type driving device 30 is constituted by, for example, a hydraulic device or the like, and opens the mold by separating the cavity die 11 from the core die 12 and the outer facing core 13 when the resin R injected into the cavity 14 is cooled and solidified to some extent. (Mold opening means).

外捲りコア駆動シリンダ40は、型開き後に、外捲りコア13をコア型12の外方へ移動させることにより、成形品1のアンダーカット部1Bをアンダーカット部1Bの端面1e及び外捲りコア13のキャビティ形成面13aの窪みを介してコア型12の外へ変位させるためのものである(変位手段)。   The outer turning core drive cylinder 40 moves the outer turning core 13 to the outside of the core mold 12 after the mold is opened, thereby changing the undercut portion 1B of the molded product 1 to the end face 1e of the undercut portion 1B and the outer turning core 13. It is for displacing out of the core type | mold 12 through the hollow of the cavity formation surface 13a (displacement means).

加圧エア供給装置50は、前記気体通路51に加圧エアを供給することにより、成形品1の裏面1b側に開口56(図6参照)から加圧エアを噴出させて、成形品1の裏面1bとコア型12のキャビティ形成面12aとの間に加圧エアを供給して、成形品1をコア型12及び外捲りコア13から離型させるためのものである(離型手段)。   The pressurized air supply device 50 supplies pressurized air to the gas passage 51, thereby ejecting pressurized air from the opening 56 (see FIG. 6) toward the back surface 1 b of the molded product 1. Pressurized air is supplied between the back surface 1b and the cavity forming surface 12a of the core mold 12 to release the molded product 1 from the core mold 12 and the outer core 13 (mold release means).

取出しロボットアーム60は、離型した成形品1をコア型12及び外捲りコア13から引き離して、当該取出し装置10外へ取り出すためのものである(取出し手段)。   The take-out robot arm 60 is for pulling the released molded product 1 away from the core mold 12 and the outer facing core 13 and taking it out of the take-out device 10 (take-out means).

そして、これらの機器20〜60に制御信号を出力して、当該取出し装置10の全体の動作を統括管理する制御ユニット70が備えられている。   And the control unit 70 which outputs a control signal to these apparatuses 20-60, and manages the whole operation | movement of the said taking-out apparatus 10 is provided.

ここで、コア型12のキャビティ形成面12aに形成された開口56の周辺構造を説明する。   Here, the peripheral structure of the opening 56 formed in the cavity forming surface 12a of the core mold 12 will be described.

図5、図6に示すように、コア型12のキャビティ形成面12aには、漏斗状に開口56が形成されており、この開口56に嵌合密着して開口56を閉じる蓋部材52が備えられている。蓋部材52は上下に延びる支持部材53の上端部に連結されており、支持部材53及び蓋部材52はバネ54により下方、つまり開口56を閉じる方向へ常に付勢されている。   As shown in FIGS. 5 and 6, the cavity forming surface 12 a of the core mold 12 has a funnel-shaped opening 56, and a lid member 52 that fits and closes the opening 56 and closes the opening 56 is provided. It has been. The lid member 52 is connected to an upper end portion of a support member 53 extending vertically, and the support member 53 and the lid member 52 are always urged downward by a spring 54, that is, in a direction to close the opening 56.

支持部材53の下端部はエア室55に露出しており、このエア室55に前記気体通路51が接続している。   The lower end portion of the support member 53 is exposed to the air chamber 55, and the gas passage 51 is connected to the air chamber 55.

コア型12のキャビティ形成面12aが湾曲しているため、キャビティ形成面12aと、開口56を閉じた状態の蓋部材52の上面とが面一の関係を維持するように、支持部材53の回り止めピン57が設けられている。   Since the cavity forming surface 12a of the core mold 12 is curved, the cavity forming surface 12a and the upper surface of the lid member 52 with the opening 56 closed maintain a flush relationship around the support member 53. A stop pin 57 is provided.

気体通路51に加圧エアが供給されていないときは、図5に示したように、蓋部材52は、バネ54の付勢力によって下降し、開口56を閉じている。そして、型締め時にはこの状態とされ、キャビティ型11のキャビティ形成面11aと、コア型12のキャビティ形成面12aと、外捲りコア13の窪んだキャビティ形成面13a(図11参照)とで画成されるキャビティ14に溶融状態の樹脂Rが射出される。   When pressurized air is not supplied to the gas passage 51, the lid member 52 is lowered by the urging force of the spring 54 and closes the opening 56, as shown in FIG. 5. This state is set when the mold is clamped, and is defined by the cavity forming surface 11a of the cavity mold 11, the cavity forming surface 12a of the core mold 12, and the cavity forming surface 13a (see FIG. 11) where the outer core 13 is recessed. The molten resin R is injected into the cavity 14 to be formed.

一方、成形品1を離型させる際には、気体通路51への加圧エアの供給が開始される。すると、エア室55内の圧力が次第に上昇し、ついには、図6に示したように、蓋部材52が上方へ押し上げられて、成形品1の裏面1bをコア型12のキャビティ形成面12aから持ち上げる。ただし、蓋部材52が成形品1を持ち上げる範囲は、蓋部材52が成形品1に当接する部分の周辺に限られる。   On the other hand, when releasing the molded product 1, supply of pressurized air to the gas passage 51 is started. Then, the pressure in the air chamber 55 gradually increases, and finally, as shown in FIG. 6, the lid member 52 is pushed upward, and the back surface 1b of the molded product 1 is moved from the cavity forming surface 12a of the core mold 12. lift. However, the range in which the lid member 52 lifts the molded product 1 is limited to the periphery of the portion where the lid member 52 contacts the molded product 1.

いったん蓋部材52が上方へ押し上げられると、蓋部材52と開口56との間に隙間が生じ、ここから加圧エアが噴出する。噴出した加圧エアは成形品1の裏面1bに衝突し、成形品1の裏面1bとコア型12のキャビティ形成面12aとの間に流入していき、成形品1をコア型12から剥がして浮かしていく。つまり、成形品1がコア型12及び外捲りコア13から離型することとなる。   Once the lid member 52 is pushed upward, a gap is formed between the lid member 52 and the opening 56, and pressurized air is ejected therefrom. The jetted pressurized air collides with the back surface 1b of the molded product 1 and flows between the back surface 1b of the molded product 1 and the cavity forming surface 12a of the core mold 12 to peel the molded product 1 from the core mold 12. It floats. That is, the molded product 1 is released from the core mold 12 and the outer core 13.

次に、図7のタイムチャートを参照しながら、この取出し装置10による成形品1の取出し動作を説明する(第1の実施形態)。   Next, with reference to the time chart of FIG. 7, the operation of taking out the molded product 1 by the take-out device 10 will be described (first embodiment).

まず、成形型11〜13は型締めされている。つまり、図3に示したように、キャビティ型11は下降してコア型12に近接し、外捲りコア13はコア型12の最も内方に移動して、これらの集合した成形型11〜13でキャビティ14が形成されている。   First, the molds 11 to 13 are clamped. That is, as shown in FIG. 3, the cavity mold 11 descends and approaches the core mold 12, and the outer core 13 moves inwardly of the core mold 12, and these assembled molds 11 to 13 are assembled. Thus, the cavity 14 is formed.

また、気体通路51への加圧エアの供給は停止しており、取出しロボットアーム60は当該取出し装置10外の上方にあって待機している。   The supply of pressurized air to the gas passage 51 is stopped, and the take-out robot arm 60 is on the upper side outside the take-out device 10 and is on standby.

この状態で、時刻アに、射出機20が溶融状態の樹脂Rをキャビティ14に射出し始め、樹脂Rの充填を開始する(充填工程)。この樹脂Rの充填は保圧のため所定時間続き、時刻イに終了する。   In this state, at time A, the injector 20 starts to inject the molten resin R into the cavity 14 and starts filling the resin R (filling step). This filling of the resin R continues for a predetermined time for holding pressure, and ends at time a.

次いで、時刻イの直後の時刻カに、図8に示したように、キャビティ型駆動装置30がキャビティ型11を矢印(i)のように上昇させることにより、キャビティ型11をコア型12及び外捲りコア13から離反させ、型開きする(型開き工程)。この型開き状態は比較的長い所定時間続き、時刻キに終了する。   Next, as shown in FIG. 8, the cavity mold driving device 30 raises the cavity mold 11 as indicated by an arrow (i) at a time immediately after the time a, so that the cavity mold 11 is removed from the core mold 12 and the outer mold 12. The mold is opened away from the twisted core 13 (mold opening process). This mold opening state lasts for a relatively long predetermined time and ends at the time key.

次いで、時刻カの直後の時刻サに、図9に示したように、外捲りコア駆動シリンダ40が外捲りコア13を矢印(ii)のようにコア型12の外方へ移動させることにより、成形品1のアンダーカット部1Bをコア型12の外へ変位(外捲り)させる(変位工程)。これにより、コア型12とアンダーカット部1Bとの干渉が回避される。この外捲りコア13がコア型12の外方へ移動した移動は所定時間続き、時刻キの直前の時刻シに終了する。   Next, as shown in FIG. 9, the outer core driving cylinder 40 moves the outer core 13 toward the outer side of the core mold 12 as indicated by an arrow (ii) at a time immediately after the time F. The undercut portion 1B of the molded product 1 is displaced (outer) from the core mold 12 (displacement process). Thereby, interference with the core type | mold 12 and the undercut part 1B is avoided. The movement of the outer core 13 moving outward from the core mold 12 continues for a predetermined time, and ends at the time just before the time key.

このとき、外捲りコア13の窪んだキャビティ形成面13aが、成形品1の内方を指向しているアンダーカット部1Bの端面1eに引っ掛かって当接しているから、外捲りコア13がコア型12の外方へ移動することに伴い、成形品1のアンダーカット部1Bがコア型12の外へ確実に引き摺り出されて変位することとなる。   At this time, since the cavity forming surface 13a in which the outer core 13 is recessed is caught by and contacted with the end surface 1e of the undercut portion 1B directed inward of the molded product 1, the outer core 13 is a core type. The undercut portion 1 </ b> B of the molded product 1 is reliably dragged out of the core mold 12 and displaced as it moves outward of 12.

次いで、時刻サの直後の時刻タに、加圧エア供給装置50が加圧エアを気体通路51に供給し始める。そして、これにより、図5、図6を参照して説明したように、所定時間後の時刻チに、成形品1がコア型12及び外捲りコア13から離型することとなる(離型工程)。この加圧エアの供給は所定時間続き、時刻シの直前の時刻ツに終了する。   Next, the pressurized air supply device 50 starts to supply pressurized air to the gas passage 51 at a time immediately after the time. As a result, as described with reference to FIGS. 5 and 6, the molded product 1 is released from the core mold 12 and the outer core 13 at a time h after a predetermined time (mold release step). ). This supply of pressurized air continues for a predetermined time and ends at a time just before the time.

次いで、時刻チの直後の時刻ナに、図10に示したように、取出しロボットアーム60が下降して、吸着盤61…61により、離型した成形品1を保持し、次いで、時刻ニに、図11に示したように、取出しロボットアーム60が矢印(iii)のように上昇して、保持した成形品1をコア型12及び外捲りコア13から引き離して、当該取出し装置10外へ取り出すこととなる(取出し工程)。   Next, at time n immediately after time h, as shown in FIG. 10, the take-out robot arm 60 is lowered and the released molded product 1 is held by the suction plates 61... 61, and then at time d. As shown in FIG. 11, the take-out robot arm 60 moves up as indicated by an arrow (iii), and the held molded product 1 is pulled away from the core mold 12 and the outer core 13 and taken out of the take-out device 10. (Take out process).

そして、以降は、取出しロボットアーム60の上昇の後、時刻ツに、加圧エアの供給が停止し、時刻シに、外捲りコア13がコア型12の最も内方に移動し、時刻キに、キャビティ型11が下降して再び型締め状態となり、最初の状態に戻る。そして、次の成形サイクルが開始することとなる。   Thereafter, after the take-out robot arm 60 is raised, the supply of pressurized air is stopped at the time, and at the time of time, the outer core 13 is moved to the innermost side of the core mold 12 to reach the time key. Then, the cavity mold 11 is lowered and the mold is clamped again to return to the initial state. Then, the next molding cycle starts.

このように、本実施形態によれば、表面1a側に突出して湾曲する形状の本体1Aと、この本体1Aの縁部で本体1Aの裏面1b側に曲折するアンダーカット部1Bとを有する射出成形品1を型から取り出す場合において、成形品1の本体1Aの表面1aを成形すキャビティ型11と、成形品1の本体1Aの裏面1b及びこの裏面1bと連続するアンダーカット部1Bの内面1dを成形するコア型12と、成形品1の本体1Aの表面1aと連続するアンダーカット部1Bの外面1c及びアンダーカット部1Bの端面1eを成形する外捲りコア13とを用い、キャビティ型11を型開きした後、外捲りコア13をコア型12の外方へ移動させることにより、成形品1のアンダーカット部1Bを該アンダーカット部1Bの端面1eを介してコア型12の外へ変位させ、これにより、コア型12とアンダーカット部1Bとの干渉を回避するようにしたから、コア型12の内部に外捲りコア13や駆動シリンダ40を収容せずに済み、したがってコア型12の内部に比較的大きな空間を設ける必要がなくなり、型剛性低下ないしバリ発生の不具合が抑制されることとなる。   Thus, according to the present embodiment, the injection molding includes the main body 1A that is curved to protrude toward the front surface 1a, and the undercut portion 1B that bends to the back surface 1b side of the main body 1A at the edge of the main body 1A. When the product 1 is taken out of the mold, the cavity mold 11 that molds the surface 1a of the main body 1A of the molded product 1, the back surface 1b of the main body 1A of the molded product 1, and the inner surface 1d of the undercut portion 1B that is continuous with the back surface 1b. Using the core mold 12 to be molded, the outer surface 1c of the undercut portion 1B continuous with the surface 1a of the main body 1A of the molded product 1 and the outer core 13 for molding the end surface 1e of the undercut portion 1B, the cavity mold 11 is molded. After the opening, the outer core 13 is moved to the outside of the core mold 12 so that the undercut portion 1B of the molded product 1 passes through the end face 1e of the undercut portion 1B. 2 so that the interference between the core mold 12 and the undercut portion 1B is avoided, so that it is not necessary to house the outer core 13 and the drive cylinder 40 inside the core mold 12. Therefore, it is not necessary to provide a relatively large space inside the core mold 12, and the mold rigidity is reduced or the occurrence of burrs is suppressed.

また、確実にコア型12とアンダーカット部1Bとの干渉が回避されるから、円滑に成形品1をコア型12及び外捲りコア13から取り出すことが可能となる。   Further, since the interference between the core mold 12 and the undercut portion 1B is reliably avoided, the molded product 1 can be smoothly taken out from the core mold 12 and the outer core 13.

また、コア型12の内部を通過してコア型12のキャビティ形成面12aに至る気体通路51に加圧エアを供給することにより、成形品1をコア型12及び外捲りコア13から離型させるようにしたから、コア型12の内部には比較的細い気体通路51を設けるだけで済み、コア型12の内部に比較的大きな空間を設ける必要がなくなり、この点においても、型剛性低下ないしバリ発生の不具合が抑制されることとなる。   Further, by supplying pressurized air to the gas passage 51 that passes through the core mold 12 and reaches the cavity forming surface 12 a of the core mold 12, the molded product 1 is released from the core mold 12 and the outer core 13. As a result, it is only necessary to provide a relatively thin gas passage 51 inside the core mold 12, and it is not necessary to provide a relatively large space inside the core mold 12. The malfunction of generation | occurrence | production will be suppressed.

また、離型した成形品1をロボットアーム60を用いて取り出す場合に、ロボットアーム60が上昇し終わった時刻ニの後の時刻ツに、加圧エアの供給を停止し、これにより、成形品1の離型のための加圧エアの供給を続けながらロボットアーム60で成形品1を取り出すようにしたので、図11に示したように成形品1をコア型12及び外捲りコア13から引き離すときに、成形品1の裏面1bとコア型12のキャビティ形成面12aとの間に発生する負圧を低減することができ、成形品1に無理な力を作用させることなく円滑に短時間で成形品1をコア型12及び外捲りコア13から取り出すことが可能となる。   Further, when the molded product 1 that has been released is taken out using the robot arm 60, the supply of pressurized air is stopped at a time after the time d when the robot arm 60 has finished being raised, and thereby the molded product Since the molded article 1 is taken out by the robot arm 60 while the supply of pressurized air for releasing the mold 1 is continued, the molded article 1 is pulled away from the core mold 12 and the outer core 13 as shown in FIG. Sometimes, the negative pressure generated between the back surface 1b of the molded product 1 and the cavity forming surface 12a of the core mold 12 can be reduced, and the molded product 1 can be smoothly and quickly applied without applying an excessive force. The molded product 1 can be taken out from the core mold 12 and the outer core 13.

特に、本実施形態では、成形品1が車両のバンパーであって、成形品1の本体1Aの形状が表面1a側に突出して湾曲する形状であるので、例えば成形品の本体の形状が平坦な形状である場合に比べて、成形品の裏面と型のキャビティ形成面との間に発生する負圧が自然に解消されるには長い時間がかかるものである(図11参照)。本実施形態では、そのような場合でも、無理なく円滑に短時間で成形品1を型から取り出すことが可能となるのである。   In particular, in this embodiment, the molded product 1 is a bumper of a vehicle, and the shape of the main body 1A of the molded product 1 is a shape that protrudes and curves toward the surface 1a. Compared to the case of the shape, it takes a long time for the negative pressure generated between the back surface of the molded product and the cavity forming surface of the mold to be resolved naturally (see FIG. 11). In this embodiment, even in such a case, the molded product 1 can be taken out of the mold smoothly and without difficulty.

そして、本実施形態では、車両のバンパーが、型剛性低下ないしバリ発生の不具合が抑制されながら、成形サイクルが短縮されながら、円滑に短時間でコア型12及び外捲りコア13から取り出されて、生産されることとなる。   And in this embodiment, the bumper of the vehicle is taken out from the core mold 12 and the outer turning core 13 smoothly in a short time while the molding cycle is shortened while the mold rigidity reduction or the occurrence of burr is suppressed. Will be produced.

次に、図12のタイムチャートを参照しながら、この取出し装置10による成形品1の別の取出し動作を説明する(第2の実施形態)。ただし、この第2の実施形態の特徴部分のみ説明し、先の実施形態と構成や作用が同じ部分は説明を省略する。   Next, another take-out operation of the molded product 1 by the take-out device 10 will be described with reference to the time chart of FIG. 12 (second embodiment). However, only the characteristic part of this 2nd Embodiment is demonstrated and description is abbreviate | omitted about the part with the same structure and effect | action as previous embodiment.

この第2の実施形態では、成形品1をコア型12及び外捲りコア13から離型させるための、気体通路51への加圧エアの供給を、外捲りコア駆動シリンダ40が外捲りコア13をコア型12の外方へ移動させるより前(換言すれば、成形品1のアンダーカット部1Bをコア型12の外へ変位させるより前)に開始する点が特徴である。   In the second embodiment, the outer core driving cylinder 40 is used to supply pressurized air to the gas passage 51 for releasing the molded product 1 from the core mold 12 and the outer core 13. Is characterized in that it starts before moving the core mold 12 outward (in other words, before the undercut portion 1B of the molded product 1 is displaced out of the core mold 12).

すなわち、第1の実施形態では、図7において、加圧エア供給装置50が加圧エアを気体通路51に供給し始める時刻タは、外捲りコア駆動シリンダ40が外捲りコア13をコア型12の外方へ移動させる時刻サよりも後であったのに対し、この第2の実施形態では、図12において、前記時刻タは前記時刻サよりも前にある。   That is, in the first embodiment, in FIG. 7, at the time when the pressurized air supply device 50 starts to supply the pressurized air to the gas passage 51, the outer core driving cylinder 40 sets the outer core 13 to the core type 12. In the second embodiment, in FIG. 12, the time data is before the time time.

この結果、成形品1がコア型12及び外捲りコア13から離型する時刻チが早まり、以降の動作時刻ナ、ニ、ツ、シ、キがすべて早まって、第1の実施形態に比べて、成形品1を早い時期にコア型12及び外捲りコア13から取り出すことができ、成形サイクルが短縮されて、生産性の向上が図られることとなる。   As a result, the time h when the molded product 1 is released from the core mold 12 and the outer turning core 13 is advanced, and the subsequent operation times N, D, Tsu, Shi, and K are all advanced, compared with the first embodiment. The molded product 1 can be taken out from the core mold 12 and the outer core 13 at an early stage, the molding cycle is shortened, and the productivity is improved.

つまり、この第2の実施形態は、成形品1の離型のためにエア等の流体を用いる場合は、例えばエジェクト機構を用いる場合等に比べて、応答性が低下するので、その応答性低下を補うようにしたものである。   That is, in the second embodiment, when a fluid such as air is used for releasing the molded article 1, the responsiveness is reduced compared to, for example, the case where an eject mechanism is used. Is intended to compensate.

次に、図13のタイムチャートを参照しながら、この取出し装置10による成形品1のさらに別の取出し動作を説明する(第3の実施形態)。ただし、この第3の実施形態の特徴部分のみ説明し、先の実施形態と構成や作用が同じ部分は説明を省略する。   Next, still another take-out operation of the molded product 1 by the take-out device 10 will be described with reference to the time chart of FIG. 13 (third embodiment). However, only the characteristic part of this 3rd Embodiment is demonstrated and description is abbreviate | omitted about the part with the same structure and effect | action as previous embodiment.

この第3の実施形態も、第2の実施形態と同様、成形品1をコア型12及び外捲りコア13から離型させるための、気体通路51への加圧エアの供給を、外捲りコア駆動シリンダ40が外捲りコア13をコア型12の外方へ移動させるより前(換言すれば、成形品1のアンダーカット部1Bをコア型12の外へ変位させるより前)に開始する点が特徴であるが、第2の実施形態に比べて、加圧エアの供給開始時刻タをさらに早めている。   In the third embodiment, as in the second embodiment, the supply of pressurized air to the gas passage 51 for releasing the molded product 1 from the core mold 12 and the outer core 13 is performed by using the outer core. The starting point is before the drive cylinder 40 moves the outer turning core 13 outward of the core mold 12 (in other words, before the undercut portion 1B of the molded product 1 is displaced out of the core mold 12). As a feature, the pressurized air supply start time t is further advanced as compared with the second embodiment.

図13を参照すれば、加圧エアの供給開始時刻タは、型開き時刻カよりも前にあり、この結果、成形品1がコア型12及び外捲りコア13から離型する時刻チが、外捲りコア13がコア型12の外方へ移動する時刻サに一致している。つまり、第2の実施形態では、成形品1の離型がアンダーカット部1Bの変位の直後に行われるのに対し、この第3の実施形態では、成形品1の離型がアンダーカット部1Bの変位と同時に行われることとなる。   Referring to FIG. 13, the pressurized air supply start time t is before the mold opening time, and as a result, the time h when the molded product 1 is released from the core mold 12 and the outer core 13 is This coincides with the time when the outer core 13 moves outward of the core mold 12. That is, in the second embodiment, the release of the molded product 1 is performed immediately after the displacement of the undercut portion 1B, whereas in the third embodiment, the release of the molded product 1 is performed under the undercut portion 1B. It will be performed simultaneously with the displacement of.

この結果、成形品1がコア型12及び外捲りコア13から離型する時刻チがさらに早まり、以降の動作時刻ナ、ニ、ツ、シ、キもさらに早まって、第1、第2の実施形態に比べて、成形品1をより早い時期にコア型12及び外捲りコア13から取り出すことができ、成形サイクルがさらに短縮されて、より一層の生産性の向上が図られることとなる。   As a result, the time when the molded product 1 is released from the core mold 12 and the outer turning core 13 is further advanced, and the subsequent operation times N, D, Tsu, Shi, and Ki are further advanced, and the first and second implementations. Compared with the form, the molded product 1 can be taken out from the core mold 12 and the outer core 13 at an earlier time, the molding cycle is further shortened, and the productivity can be further improved.

なお、成形品1の離型がアンダーカット部1Bの変位より前に行われると、アンダーカット部1Bに無理な力がかかって成形品1が塑性変形する原因ともなるので、加圧エアの供給開始時刻タをこの第3の実施形態よりも早めることは好ましくない。   If release of the molded product 1 is performed before the displacement of the undercut portion 1B, an excessive force is applied to the undercut portion 1B to cause the molded product 1 to be plastically deformed. It is not preferable that the start time t be set earlier than that in the third embodiment.

また、ロボットアーム60の下降時刻ナは、状況に応じてより早めることが可能である。   Further, the lowering time n of the robot arm 60 can be advanced according to the situation.

さらに、取出し装置10全体を横に倒した状態にし、キャビティ型11を水平方向に移動させて型開きした後、アンダーカット部1Bを外捲りし、成形品1をコア型12及び外捲りコア13から離型させれば、成形品1を自重による落下で取り出すこともできる。この場合は、ロボットアーム60のような取出し手段を備える必要がなくなる。   Further, the entire take-out device 10 is laid down sideways, the cavity mold 11 is moved in the horizontal direction and the mold is opened, and then the undercut portion 1B is turned outward, and the molded product 1 is turned into the core mold 12 and the outer turned core 13. If the mold 1 is released from the mold, the molded product 1 can be taken out by dropping due to its own weight. In this case, it is not necessary to provide an extraction means such as the robot arm 60.

さらに、加圧エア供給装置50の開口56の周辺構造として、前述したような開口56を開閉可能な蓋部材52に代えて、加圧エアがキャビティ側に向けて通過可能で溶融状態の樹脂がキャビティ側から通過不能な微細通路を形成したブロック部材を開口56に固定嵌合するようにしてもよい。   Further, as a peripheral structure of the opening 56 of the pressurized air supply device 50, instead of the lid member 52 capable of opening and closing the opening 56 as described above, pressurized air can pass toward the cavity side and a molten resin can be passed. A block member in which a fine passage that cannot pass from the cavity side may be fixedly fitted to the opening 56.

以上、具体例を挙げて詳しく説明したように、本発明は、表面側に突出して湾曲する形状の本体と、この本体の縁部で本体の裏面側に曲折するアンダーカット部とを有する成形品を射出成形する場合に、コア型の内部に比較的大きな空間を設けることなく、確実にコア型とアンダーカット部との干渉を回避し、その結果、型剛性低下ないしバリ発生の不具合を抑制しつつ、円滑に成形品をコア型から取り出すことが可能な技術であるから、樹脂の射出成形の技術分野において広範な産業上の利用可能性が期待される。   As described above in detail with reference to specific examples, the present invention is a molded product having a main body having a shape that protrudes and curves toward the front surface side, and an undercut portion that bends to the back side of the main body at the edge of the main body. When injection molding is performed, interference between the core mold and the undercut portion is surely avoided without providing a relatively large space inside the core mold. On the other hand, since the molded product can be smoothly taken out from the core mold, a wide range of industrial applicability is expected in the technical field of resin injection molding.
