Description
本発明は、軸受に潤滑剤を供給する給脂構造に関する。
The present invention relates to a greasing structure that supplies lubricant to a bearing.
下記特許文献1には、ボールネジとボールナットとの組み合わせによってボールネジの回転運動を直線運動に変換してプッシャープレートを押圧することで、射出スクリューを移動させることができる射出成形機が開示されている。この射出成形機は、以下の構成を有している。
Patent Document 1 listed below discloses an injection molding machine that can move an injection screw by converting the rotational motion of the ball screw into linear motion using a combination of a ball screw and a ball nut and pressing a pusher plate. . This injection molding machine has the following configuration.
射出スクリューが設けられたスクリュースリーブは、ベアリングを介して、プッシャープレートの貫通孔に設けられている。従って、スクリュースリーブは、プッシャープレートに対して回転可能である。ボールネジは、ベアリングを介して、スクリュースリーブの内周部に設けられている。従って、ボールネジは、スクリュースリーブに対して回転可能である。このような構成の射出成形機は、計量混錬時に射出スクリューが回転し、射出時にボールネジが回転する。従って、成形中において、ボールネジとスクリュースリーブとの間のベアリングにおける内輪及び外輪は、回転する。
The screw sleeve provided with the injection screw is provided in the through hole of the pusher plate via the bearing. The screw sleeve is therefore rotatable relative to the pusher plate. The ball screw is provided on the inner circumference of the screw sleeve via a bearing. The ball screw is therefore rotatable relative to the screw sleeve. In an injection molding machine having such a configuration, the injection screw rotates during metering and kneading, and the ball screw rotates during injection. Therefore, during molding, the inner and outer rings of the bearing between the ball screw and the screw sleeve rotate.
近年、ボールネジとスクリュースリーブとの間のベアリングは、厳しい条件下で使用されることが多い。従って、ボールネジとスクリュースリーブとの間のベアリングには、耐久性を高めるために、定期的に給脂する(潤滑剤を供給する)必要がある。
In recent years, bearings between ball screws and screw sleeves are often used under harsh conditions. Therefore, the bearing between the ball screw and the screw sleeve needs to be periodically lubricated (supplied with lubricant) to increase durability.
上述したような内輪及び外輪が回転する構成を有する場合、ボールネジとスクリュースリーブとの間のベアリングに、自動給脂装置からチューブを介して給脂しようとすると、チューブが回ってしまうため、チューブを用いた自動給脂を行うことができない。そこで、射出成形機を停止した状態で、グリスガンを用いて手動で給脂を行うことが考えられる。
If the inner ring and outer ring have a rotating configuration as described above, if you try to grease the bearing between the ball screw and the screw sleeve through the tube from an automatic lubrication device, the tube will rotate, so it is necessary to remove the tube. automatic lubrication cannot be performed using Therefore, it is conceivable to manually replenish the injection molding machine with a grease gun while the injection molding machine is stopped.
しかしながら、この場合、射出成形機を停止する必要があるので、射出成形機の稼働率の低下を招く。また、手動で給脂を行うので、給脂のし忘れ、及び給脂作業のし難さ等の問題が生じる。そのため、簡易な構成で、内輪及び外輪が回転する軸受に容易に給脂できる給脂構造が望まれている。
However, in this case, it is necessary to stop the injection molding machine, resulting in a decrease in the operating rate of the injection molding machine. Furthermore, since greasing is performed manually, problems such as forgetting to replenish the oil and difficulty in performing the greasing operation occur. Therefore, a lubrication structure is desired that has a simple configuration and can easily lubricate a bearing in which an inner ring and an outer ring rotate.
本開示の一態様は、中空状のハウジングと、前記ハウジングの内周面に外輪が保持される外側軸受と、中空状で、前記外側軸受の内輪に固定される第1回転体と、前記第1回転体の内周面に外輪が保持される内側軸受と、前記内側軸受の内輪に固定される第2回転体と、を備え、前記ハウジングは、前記内側軸受に供給される潤滑剤が通される第1給脂路を有し、前記第1給脂路の下流側は、前記ハウジングと前記第1回転体との間の封止された第1封止空間に連通され、前記第1回転体は、上流側が前記第1封止空間に連通される第2給脂路を有し、前記第2給脂路の下流側は、前記第1回転体と前記第2回転体との間の封止された第2封止空間に連通され、前記第2封止空間内に前記内側軸受が配置される、軸受の給脂構造である。

One axial end of the second rotating body 5 passes through an annular load cell 46 provided on the rear plate 8. The load cell 46 is fixed to the rear plate 8 with bolts or the like.
次に、射出成形機6の動作について説明する。射出成形機6は、計量混錬時に射出スクリュー10のみが回転し、射出時に第2回転体5のみが回転する。そのため、射出成形機6は、射出スクリュー10が固定された第1回転体3を回転させるモーター47と、第2回転体5を回転させるモーター48とを有している。モーター47は、ハウジング1に設けられる。モーター47の駆動軸には、駆動プーリ49が固定される。モーター47に設けられた駆動プーリ49と第1回転体3の軸方向他端部に設けられた従動プーリ50とには、ベルト51が掛け回されている。モーター48は、モーター47とモーター48との間に第1回転体3が位置するように、ハウジング1に設けられる。モーター48の駆動軸には、駆動プーリ52が固定される。モーター48に設けられた駆動プーリ52と第2回転体5に設けられた従動プーリ53とには、ベルト54が掛け回されている。
Next, the operation of the injection molding machine 6 will be explained. In the injection molding machine 6, only the injection screw 10 rotates during metering and kneading, and only the second rotating body 5 rotates during injection. Therefore, the injection molding machine 6 includes a motor 47 that rotates the first rotating body 3 to which the injection screw 10 is fixed, and a motor 48 that rotates the second rotating body 5. The motor 47 is provided in the housing 1. A drive pulley 49 is fixed to the drive shaft of the motor 47. A belt 51 is wound around a drive pulley 49 provided on the motor 47 and a driven pulley 50 provided at the other axial end of the first rotating body 3 . The motor 48 is provided in the housing 1 such that the first rotating body 3 is located between the motors 47 and 48. A drive pulley 52 is fixed to the drive shaft of the motor 48. A belt 54 is wound around a driving pulley 52 provided on the motor 48 and a driven pulley 53 provided on the second rotating body 5.
このような構成であるので、計量混錬時には、モーター48を停止した状態でモーター47を駆動することで、射出スクリュー10を回転させることができる。射出スクリュー10を回転させることで、計量混錬り作業が行われ、射出シリンダー12の先端に溶解樹脂が送り込まれる。射出時には、モーター47を停止した状態でモーター48を駆動することで、第2回転体5を回転させることができる。第2回転体5を回転させることで、ハウジング1を射出シリンダー12側に移動させ、射出スクリュー10を射出シリンダー12内で移動させて射出することができる。
With such a configuration, during metering and kneading, the injection screw 10 can be rotated by driving the motor 47 while the motor 48 is stopped.
