Let's explain with a diagram. The injection molding machines 11 and 12 face a mold storage shelf 13 having stations for storing 22 molds, for example 101 to 122, and are mounted on rails installed on one side of the mold storage shelf 13. 14 carries a cart 15 having two stations 15A and 15B on which molds are placed. A bridge 16 for transferring molds is provided between one side of the mold mounting portions of the injection molding machines 11 and 12 and the mold storage shelf 13.
この金型交換装置による従来の動作を述べる。 The conventional operation of this mold changing device will be described.

ことにより。When the production of the injection molding machine 12 is completed, preparations for replacing the mold are completed by loosening the mold attachment to the injection molding machine and disconnecting the wiring and piping. Next, the trolley 15 is designated with stage N/, where the mold to be used next is stored, and moved to the corresponding station.
5AK and stop it in front of the injection molding machine 12. Next, the used mold in the injection molding machine 12 is transferred to the station 15B of the trolley 15 via the bridge 16.
Next, the mold to be used is moved from station 15A to injection molding machine 12. - The mold 21 has a connector 22 on one side as shown in FIG.
is attached to the injection molding machine 12, and a connector 22 is also attached to the injection molding machine 12.
A connector 23 on the other side opposite to is attached to the tip of the drive mechanism 24. Therefore, the connector 23 is moved to the moving mechanism 24.
by advancing and connecting both connectors 22 and 23.

とが行われていた。It was possible to identify whether or not it was a designated mold by reading the code number that was created by making the connector terminal conductive. In addition, although not shown, a magnetic, optical, or mechanical mold code is attached to the mold, and a detection section for reading this code is attached to the injection molding machine to identify the mold.

た。However, in these conventional methods, accurate positioning is required to connect a single connector or to position the detection part for code reading to face the mold code part, and it is difficult to identify the mold while it is attached to the injection molding machine. Therefore, it was necessary to make it stand still. In addition, with these methods of identifying codes on injection molding machines, when a code difference in the mold is discovered, the mold must be replaced again, which takes time and effort, reducing productivity. Furthermore, when attempting to read the mold code before installing the mold in an injection molding machine, a positioning mechanism is required to accurately align the code recording section and the reading section, making the entire system expensive.

By reading the mold code when the trolley picks up the mold, the target mold can be accurately transferred to the injection molding machine, and there is no need for a temporary stop to read the code. An object of the present invention is to provide a mold code identification device for a molding machine with low cost and high productivity.

The code of the mold to be used during production of the - side injection molding machine 12 and the station number of the mold storage shelf 13 in which the same mold is stored are instructed to the trolley 15. The trolley 15 moves according to this instruction, and when the station 15A reaches in front of the designated station, it is stopped by the dog and limit switch.

線および配管を接続すれば金型交換は終了する。When a match is found, the mold 21A is received by the station 15A of the trolley 15, and then the station 5B is moved to the front of the bridge 16 on the injection molding machine 12 side. When production of the injection molding machine 12 is completed, the fixtures of the mold are loosened, wiring and piping connections are disconnected, and the used mold 2 is removed.
1B via bridge 16 to station 15B. FIG. 1 shows this state. Next, move the dolly 15 to the right until the station 15A matches the bridge 16, move the entire mold 21A to be used for the second time from the bridge 16 to the injection molding machine 12, tighten the fixtures, and connect the wiring and piping. The type exchange ends.

下同じことを一致するまで繰り返兄す。The aforementioned detector 35 reads the information on the truck 33 and if it does not match the target mold, an alarm will be issued and the worker will issue a command to the truck 15 to move forward.As a result, the alarm will stop and the truck 15 will move forward. Detector 34
When the code 35 reaches the code recording section 31, the detector 35 reads the code on the track 33 according to the code recorded on the trunk 32 and identifies whether it matches the target mold or not. If they match, pick up the mold in the same way as before, and if they don't match, move it again and repeat the same process until they match.

る。In the above explanation, the stage number of the mold storage shelf 13 was instructed to the trolley 15, but the mold can be replaced by the following method even without this instruction. That is, when moving the trolley 15, only the mold code is instructed. 1 trolley for this instruction
5 moves, and when the detector 34 of the trolley 15 reaches in front of the code recording unit 31 of the mold placed at the first station, the detector 35 reads the code of the track 32 according to the code of the track 32 read by the detector 34. is read and the movement is continued until it matches the target mold, but the details are the same as those described above and will therefore be omitted. In addition, in this method, the mold storage shelf 13
The dog and the limit switch on the trolley 15 are not required.

交換時間は短くなり生産性は高くなった。As explained above, the mold code identification device t of the present invention has the following features:
In addition to eliminating the hassle of connecting both connectors as in the conventional example, the present invention identifies the mold at the time of receiving and picking up the mold. Next, it is checked whether the mold to be used matches the target mold, and if it is not, the mold will not be moved to the injection molding machine again, and the mold will not be moved while the trolley for transporting the mold is moving. It is now possible to read type codes. As a result, replacement time is shortened and productivity is increased.
