Description

本発明は、樹脂原料を別に設けた可塑化装置で可塑化し、これを射出プランジャへと送り込んだのち、射出プランジャを前進させて射出するプリプラ式射出成形装置を用いて、二層構造の樹脂成形品を成形する射出成形方法及び射出成形装置に関するものである。   The present invention is a two-layered resin molding using a pre-plastic injection molding device that plasticizes with a plasticizing device separately provided with a resin raw material, feeds it to an injection plunger, and then advances and injects the injection plunger. The present invention relates to an injection molding method and an injection molding apparatus for molding a product.

従来より、インラインスクリュー方式の第一射出ユニットと第二射出ユニットを有する射出成形装置を用いて、多層構造の樹脂成形品を成形する方法が知られている(例えば特許文献1)。   2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, a method of molding a resin molded product having a multilayer structure using an injection molding apparatus having an inline screw type first injection unit and a second injection unit is known (for example, Patent Document 1).

また、射出プランジャを有するプリプラ式射出成形装置においても、新たな射出ユニット(プランジャ方式、或いは、インラインスクリュー方式)を追加することで、上記インラインスクリュー方式の射出成形装置と同様に、多層構造の樹脂成形品を成形することができる。   In addition, in a pre-plastic injection molding apparatus having an injection plunger, by adding a new injection unit (plunger type or in-line screw type), a resin having a multilayer structure can be obtained in the same manner as the in-line screw type injection molding apparatus. A molded product can be formed.

しかしながら、上記特許文献1のように、インラインスクリュー方式の第一射出ユニットとインラインスクリュー方式の第二射出ユニットを組み合わせた射出成形装置、或いは、インラインスクリュー方式の射出ユニットとプランジャ方式の射出プランジャを組み合わせた射出成形装置は、射出するタイミングや射出圧の制御などが複雑になってしまうと共に、機械が大型化してしまうという問題があった。また、インラインスクリュー方式の射出成形装置は、スクリュー先端部に取り付けられるチェック弁機能を有した逆流防止装置の構造的な要因により、精密成形には不利になるという問題もある。   However, as in Patent Document 1, an injection molding apparatus that combines an inline screw type first injection unit and an inline screw type second injection unit, or an inline screw type injection unit and a plunger type injection plunger. However, the injection molding apparatus has a problem that the injection timing and the control of the injection pressure become complicated and the machine becomes large. Further, the in-line screw type injection molding apparatus has a problem that it is disadvantageous for precision molding due to the structural factor of the backflow prevention apparatus having a check valve function attached to the tip of the screw.

一方、射出プランジャを有する射出装置に、射出装置を持たない可塑化装置を接続したプリプラ式射出成形装置で、多層構造の樹脂成形品を成形する方法もある(例えば特許文献2)。   On the other hand, there is also a method of molding a resin molded product having a multilayer structure with a pre-plastic injection molding device in which a plasticizing device without an injection device is connected to an injection device having an injection plunger (for example, Patent Document 2).

特開2003−276051号公報JP 2003-276051 A 特開平08−281736号公報Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 08-281736

しかしながら、上記特許文献2のようなプリプラ式射出成形装置は、射出プランジャに射出装置を持たない可塑化装置を接続しているため、ノズルクリーニングができず、次ショットの際に可塑化装置から送り出される溶融樹脂と射出装置の樹脂流路内に残存している溶融樹脂とが混ざってしまうという問題があった。   However, since the pre-plastic injection molding apparatus as in Patent Document 2 is connected to a plasticizing device that does not have an injection device on the injection plunger, nozzle cleaning cannot be performed and the plasticizer is sent out from the plasticizing device at the next shot. There is a problem that the molten resin to be mixed with the molten resin remaining in the resin flow path of the injection apparatus.

本発明は上記の問題に鑑みてなされたもので、その解決しようとする課題は、射出プランジャを有する射出装置に、射出装置を持たない可塑化装置を接続したシンプル且つコンパクトな構造のプリプラ式射出成形装置を用いているにも拘わらず、次ショットの際の樹脂混じりが殆どない射出成形方法及び射出成形装置を提供することにある。   The present invention has been made in view of the above problems, and a problem to be solved is a pre-plastic injection having a simple and compact structure in which a plasticizing device having no injection device is connected to an injection device having an injection plunger. An object of the present invention is to provide an injection molding method and an injection molding apparatus in which there is almost no resin mixing at the time of the next shot despite using the molding apparatus.

上記目的を達成するため、本発明に係る射出成形方法は、樹脂原料を可塑化溶融する可塑化装置と、該装置で可塑化された溶融樹脂を射出シリンダ内に充填し、射出プランジャによって金型内に射出する射出装置とがそれぞれ独立して設けられたプリプラ式射出成形装置において、第一の樹脂原料を可塑化溶融する第一の可塑化装置の第一樹脂流路が射出シリンダの合流樹脂流路に接続されていると共に、第二の樹脂原料を可塑化溶融する第二の可塑化装置の第二樹脂流路が、第一の可塑化装置よりも射出ノズル側に接続されており、第二の可塑化装置で可塑化溶融された規定量の第二の溶融樹脂を射出シリンダの合流樹脂流路に送り出して充填したのち、第一の溶融樹脂を射出シリンダの合流樹脂流路に送り出して充填し、射出シリンダ内の第一の溶融樹脂と第二の溶融樹脂を、射出プランジャによって一度に金型内に射出することを特徴とするものである。   In order to achieve the above object, an injection molding method according to the present invention comprises a plasticizing device for plasticizing and melting a resin raw material, a molten resin plasticized by the device being filled in an injection cylinder, and a mold by an injection plunger. The first plastic flow path of the first plasticizing device for plasticizing and melting the first resin raw material is the joining resin of the injection cylinder The second resin flow path of the second plasticizing device for plasticizing and melting the second resin raw material is connected to the injection nozzle side from the first plasticizing device, and connected to the flow path, After a specified amount of the second molten resin plasticized and melted by the second plasticizer is sent to the merged resin flow path of the injection cylinder, the first molten resin is sent to the merged resin flow path of the injection cylinder. Filled in the injection cylinder A first molten resin and the second molten resin, and is characterized in that injected into the mold at a time by the injection plunger.

次に、本発明の射出成形装置は、樹脂原料を可塑化溶融する可塑化装置と、該装置で可塑化された溶融樹脂を射出シリンダ内に充填し、射出プランジャによって金型内に射出する射出装置とがそれぞれ独立して設けられたプリプラ式射出成形装置であって、第一の樹脂原料を可塑化溶融する第一の可塑化装置の第一樹脂流路が射出シリンダの合流樹脂流路に接続されていると共に、第二の樹脂原料を可塑化溶融する第二の可塑化装置の第二樹脂流路が、第一の可塑化装置よりも射出ノズル側に接続されていることを特徴とするものである。   Next, an injection molding apparatus according to the present invention includes a plasticizing apparatus for plasticizing and melting a resin raw material, and an injection cylinder filled with a molten resin plasticized by the apparatus and injected into a mold by an injection plunger. The first plastic flow path of the first plasticizing device that plasticizes and melts the first resin raw material is the merged resin flow path of the injection cylinder. The second resin flow path of the second plasticizing device for plasticizing and melting the second resin raw material is connected to the injection nozzle side of the first plasticizing device. To do.

本発明の射出成形装置においては、第二の可塑化装置の第二樹脂流路の接続箇所が、射出ノズルの直近であることが好ましい。   In the injection molding apparatus of the present invention, it is preferable that the connection location of the second resin flow path of the second plasticizing apparatus is close to the injection nozzle.

本発明の射出成形方法は、可塑化装置と射出装置とが独立したシンプル且つコンパクトなプリプラ式射出成形装置を用いるので、装置の設置場所を選ばず、精密な二層構造の樹脂成形品を成形することができる。この射出成形方法に用いるプリプラ式射出成形装置は、第二の樹脂原料を可塑化溶融する第二の可塑化装置の第二樹脂流路が、第一の可塑化装置よりも射出ノズル側に接続されているので、第二の可塑化装置で可塑化溶融された第二の溶融樹脂を射出シリンダの合流樹脂流路に送り出すと、合流樹脂流路内に残っている第一の溶融樹脂が、その送り出された第二の溶融樹脂によって射出プランジャ側に押し戻されることになって、第二の溶融樹脂は射出シリンダ内の先端部(射出ノズル側)に充填されることになると共に、第一の溶融樹脂は射出シリンダ内の射出プランジャ側に充填されることになる。従って、第二の溶融樹脂と第一の溶融樹脂との境界が明確になって、合流樹脂流路内に残存している第一の溶融樹脂と第二の可塑化装置から送り出された第二の溶融樹脂とが混ざることが殆どなくなるので、その後、第一の溶融樹脂を合流樹脂流路に充填して金型内に射出しても、二種類の溶融樹脂の混じりが殆どない二層の樹脂成形品を得ることができる。このようにして樹脂成形品を成形すると、第二の溶融樹脂が樹脂成形品の表面層を形成し、第一の溶融樹脂が樹脂成形品のコア層を形成することになる。   Since the injection molding method of the present invention uses a simple and compact pre-plastic injection molding device in which the plasticizing device and the injection device are independent, a precise two-layered resin molded product is molded regardless of the installation location of the device. can do. The pre-plastic injection molding device used in this injection molding method is such that the second resin flow path of the second plasticizing device for plasticizing and melting the second resin raw material is connected to the injection nozzle side than the first plasticizing device. Therefore, when the second molten resin plasticized and melted by the second plasticizer is sent to the merged resin flow path of the injection cylinder, the first molten resin remaining in the merged resin flow path is The second molten resin is pushed back to the injection plunger side by the fed second molten resin, and the second molten resin is filled in the tip portion (injection nozzle side) in the injection cylinder, and the first The molten resin is filled on the injection plunger side in the injection cylinder. Therefore, the boundary between the second molten resin and the first molten resin becomes clear, and the first molten resin remaining in the merged resin flow path and the second molten resin sent out from the second plasticizing device After that, even if the first molten resin is filled in the merging resin flow path and injected into the mold, the two layers of molten resin are hardly mixed. A resin molded product can be obtained. When the resin molded product is molded in this manner, the second molten resin forms the surface layer of the resin molded product, and the first molten resin forms the core layer of the resin molded product.

次に、本発明の射出成形装置は、第二の可塑化装置の第二樹脂流路を第一の可塑化装置よりも射出ノズル側に接続することで、シンプルでコンパクトな構造のプリプラ式射出成形装置であるにも拘わらず、次ショットの際の樹脂混じりが殆どない二層構造の樹脂成形品を成形することができる。また、射出装置を持たない第一の可塑化装置と第二の可塑化装置を用いているので、射出は一度だけで済み、射出するタイミングや射出圧などの複雑な制御も不要となる。更に、既存のプリプラ式射出成形装置が存在する場合には、その装置の合流樹脂流路に第二の可塑化装置の第二樹脂流路を接続するという簡単な改良で、上記のような樹脂混じりが殆どない二層構造の樹脂成形品を形成できる射出成形装置を得ることができる。   Next, the injection molding apparatus of the present invention connects the second resin flow path of the second plasticizing device to the injection nozzle side of the first plasticizing device, so that the pre-plastic injection of a simple and compact structure Regardless of the molding apparatus, it is possible to mold a resin molded product having a two-layer structure with almost no resin mixing during the next shot. Further, since the first plasticizing device and the second plasticizing device that do not have an injection device are used, injection is only required once, and complicated control such as injection timing and injection pressure becomes unnecessary. Furthermore, when there is an existing pre-plastic injection molding apparatus, the resin as described above can be simply improved by connecting the second resin flow path of the second plasticizing apparatus to the merging resin flow path of the apparatus. It is possible to obtain an injection molding apparatus that can form a resin molded product having a two-layer structure with little mixing.

特に、第二の可塑化装置の第二樹脂流路の接続箇所が、射出ノズルの直近である射出成形装置は、第二の溶融樹脂を送り出した際に、合流樹脂流路内に残存している第一の溶融樹脂の略全部が、第二の溶融樹脂によって射出プランジャ側に押し戻されるので、二種類の溶融樹脂が混ざることが殆どなくなる。これにより、第二の溶融樹脂によって形成される二層構造の樹脂成形品の表面層に第一の溶融樹脂が混ざることが殆どなくなり、高品質な二層構造の樹脂成形品を得ることができる。   In particular, the injection molding apparatus in which the connection point of the second resin flow path of the second plasticizing apparatus is in the immediate vicinity of the injection nozzle remains in the merged resin flow path when the second molten resin is sent out. Since almost all of the first molten resin is pushed back to the injection plunger side by the second molten resin, the two types of molten resin are hardly mixed. Thereby, the first molten resin is hardly mixed with the surface layer of the two-layered resin molded product formed of the second molten resin, and a high-quality two-layered resin molded product can be obtained. .

This injection molding apparatus IMD includes a plasticizing device 3 that plasticizes and melts the first resin raw material 30b into the first molten resin 3b, and a second molten resin that plasticizes and melts the second resin raw material 40b. 4b, and an injection unit IU (Injection Unit) for filling the injection cylinder 1 with the molten resin 3b, 4b plasticized by the devices 3 and 4 and injecting it into the mold 6 by the injection plunger 2 And the first plastic flow path 3a of the first plasticizing apparatus 3 is connected to the merged resin flow path 1a of the injection cylinder 1. At the same time, the second resin flow path 4 a of the second plasticizing device 4 is connected to the merged resin flow path 1 a closer to the injection nozzle 5 than the first plasticizing device 3.

In addition, the “first molten resin 3b” and the “second molten resin 4b” mean that the “first resin raw material 30b” and the “second resin raw material 40b” have a glass transition temperature or higher or a melting point or higher. It refers to a fluidized state by holding.
Further, the “resin molded product” refers to an article molded into a predetermined shape by cooling and solidifying the “first molten resin 3b” and “second molten resin 4b” in the mold 6. Say.

上記射出装置IUは、可塑化された溶融樹脂3b,4bを射出する装置であって、図1に示すように、射出シリンダ1、射出プランジャ2、シリンダピストン7を具備している。   The injection device IU is a device for injecting plasticized molten resins 3b and 4b, and includes an injection cylinder 1, an injection plunger 2, and a cylinder piston 7, as shown in FIG.

射出シリンダ1は略円筒形状の部材であり、図1に示すように、その内部には、可塑化装置3,4で可塑化された溶融樹脂3b,4bが送り込まれる合流樹脂流路1aが形成されている。また、その先端部には、射出シリンダ1に送り込まれた溶融樹脂3b,4bを射出するための射出口である射出ノズル5が形成されている。   The injection cylinder 1 is a substantially cylindrical member, and as shown in FIG. 1, a merged resin flow path 1a into which the molten resins 3b and 4b plasticized by the plasticizing devices 3 and 4 are fed is formed. Has been. Further, an injection nozzle 5 that is an injection port for injecting the molten resins 3b and 4b fed into the injection cylinder 1 is formed at the tip thereof.

射出プランジャ2は、図1に示すように、射出シリンダ1の基端部から射出シリンダ1の内部空間1bに挿入される略円柱形状の部材であって、射出シリンダ1の合流樹脂流路1a及び内部空間1bに送り込まれた可塑化された溶融樹脂3b,4bを押し出して射出ノズル5から射出するためのものである。   As shown in FIG. 1, the injection plunger 2 is a substantially columnar member that is inserted into the internal space 1 b of the injection cylinder 1 from the base end portion of the injection cylinder 1. This is for extruding the plasticized molten resins 3b, 4b fed into the internal space 1b and injecting them from the injection nozzle 5.

シリンダピストン7は、射出装置IUの動力源であって、このシリンダピストン7が前後方向に動くことによって射出プランジャ2を射出シリンダ1に沿って前後方向に摺動させて、溶融樹脂3b,4bを金型6内に射出するようになっている。   The cylinder piston 7 is a power source of the injection device IU, and when the cylinder piston 7 moves in the front-rear direction, the injection plunger 2 is slid in the front-rear direction along the injection cylinder 1 so that the molten resins 3b, 4b are discharged. It is injected into the mold 6.

上記射出シリンダ1の合流樹脂流路1aに接続される第一の可塑化装置3は、図1に示すように、粉状又は粒状の第一の樹脂原料30bを可塑化して溶融樹脂3bとし、射出シリンダ1の合流樹脂流路1aに送り出すための装置であって、スクリュー3c、ホッパー3dを具備している。その内部には、第一の可塑化装置3で可塑化された第一の溶融樹脂3bを合流樹脂流路1aに供給するための第一樹脂流路3aが形成されており、この第一樹脂流路3aは、射出シリンダ1の合流樹脂流路1aの基端部(射出プランジャ2の直近)に接続されている。   As shown in FIG. 1, the first plasticizing device 3 connected to the merged resin flow path 1a of the injection cylinder 1 plasticizes the powdery or granular first resin raw material 30b into a molten resin 3b. This is a device for sending out to the merging resin flow path 1a of the injection cylinder 1, and comprises a screw 3c and a hopper 3d. A first resin flow path 3a for supplying the first molten resin 3b plasticized by the first plasticizing device 3 to the merged resin flow path 1a is formed inside the first resin resin. The flow path 3 a is connected to the proximal end portion (near the injection plunger 2) of the merged resin flow path 1 a of the injection cylinder 1.

スクリュー3cは、図1に示すように、第一の可塑化装置3の基端部からその内部空間に挿入される部材であって、その外周面には、第一の可塑化装置3の内部空間の内周面に略当接する螺旋状の羽根が形成されている。   As shown in FIG. 1, the screw 3 c is a member that is inserted into the inner space from the base end portion of the first plasticizing device 3, and the outer peripheral surface has an inner portion of the first plasticizing device 3. Spiral blades that are substantially in contact with the inner peripheral surface of the space are formed.

また、ホッパー3dは、図1に示すように、第一の可塑化装置3の内部空間に粉状又は粒状の第一の樹脂原料30bを供給するための漏斗状の部材であって、その上面には開口部が形成されていると共に、ホッパー3dの下端部は、第一の可塑化装置3の内部空間に連通接続されている。このホッパー3d上面の開口部から粉状又は粒状の第一の樹脂原料30bを投入すると、第一の樹脂原料30bは第一の可塑化装置3の内部空間へと移動する。第一の可塑化装置3の内部空間は、第一の樹脂原料30bが可塑化溶融する温度に設定されており、更にスクリュー3cを回転させることで、第一の可塑化装置3の内部空間に移動した第一の樹脂原料30bに熱エネルギーと機械的なエネルギー(摩擦力、剪断力)が付与されて、第一の樹脂原料30bの温度が上昇して溶融(可塑化)すると共に、均一な材料となるように練られながら第一の溶融樹脂3bとなる。   Moreover, as shown in FIG. 1, the hopper 3d is a funnel-shaped member for supplying the powdery or granular first resin raw material 30b to the internal space of the first plasticizing device 3, and its upper surface. Is formed with an opening, and the lower end of the hopper 3 d is connected to the internal space of the first plasticizing device 3. When the powdery or granular first resin raw material 30b is introduced from the opening on the upper surface of the hopper 3d, the first resin raw material 30b moves to the internal space of the first plasticizing device 3. The internal space of the first plasticizing device 3 is set to a temperature at which the first resin raw material 30b is plasticized and melted, and is further rotated into the internal space of the first plasticizing device 3 by rotating the screw 3c. Thermal energy and mechanical energy (friction force, shearing force) are applied to the moved first resin raw material 30b, and the temperature of the first resin raw material 30b is increased and melted (plasticized). The first molten resin 3b is obtained while being kneaded to become a material.

第二の可塑化装置4も、図1に示すように、粉状又は粒状の第二の樹脂原料40bを可塑化して溶融樹脂4bとし、射出シリンダ1の合流樹脂流路1aに送り出すための装置であって、上記第一の可塑化装置3と同様の、スクリュー4c、ホッパー4dを具備している。そして、その内部には、第二の可塑化装置4で可塑化された第二の溶融樹脂4bを射出シリンダ1の合流樹脂流路1aに供給するための第二樹脂流路4aが形成されており、この第二樹脂流路4aは、合流樹脂流路1aの先端部(射出ノズル5の直近)に接続されている。   As shown in FIG. 1, the second plasticizing device 4 is also a device for plasticizing the powdery or granular second resin raw material 40 b into a molten resin 4 b and sending it to the joining resin flow path 1 a of the injection cylinder 1. However, it has the same screw 4c and hopper 4d as the first plasticizing device 3 described above. And the 2nd resin flow path 4a for supplying the 2nd molten resin 4b plasticized with the 2nd plasticizing apparatus 4 to the confluence | merging resin flow path 1a of the injection cylinder 1 is formed in the inside. The second resin flow path 4a is connected to the front end of the merging resin flow path 1a (near the injection nozzle 5).

本発明の射出成形方法は、上記構成の射出成形装置IMDを用いて二層構造の樹脂成形品を成形するものである。即ち、まず、第二の可塑化装置4に連通接続されているホッパー4dに第二の樹脂原料40bを投入すると共に、第一の可塑化装置3に連通接続されているホッパー3dにも第一樹脂原料30bを投入し、スクリュー3c,4cを回転させることで、樹脂原料30b,40bを可塑化して溶融樹脂3b,4bとする。
尚、ここでは図示していないが、射出シリンダ1の先端部に形成された射出ノズル5には、金型6が嵌合されている。
The injection molding method of the present invention is to mold a two-layered resin molded product using the injection molding apparatus IMD having the above-described configuration. That is, first, the second resin raw material 40b is introduced into the hopper 4d connected to the second plasticizing device 4 and the first hopper 3d connected to the first plasticizing device 3 is also connected to the first plasticizing device 3. By introducing the resin raw material 30b and rotating the screws 3c and 4c, the resin raw materials 30b and 40b are plasticized to form molten resins 3b and 4b.
Although not shown here, a mold 6 is fitted to the injection nozzle 5 formed at the tip of the injection cylinder 1.

次いで、射出シリンダ1の合流樹脂流路1aと第二の可塑化装置4の第二樹脂流路4aの接続箇所に設けられた開閉弁4eを開放し、図2に示すように、規定量の第二の溶融樹脂4bを射出シリンダ1の合流樹脂流路1aに送り出す。この際、射出プランジャ2で背圧(射出ノズル5側へ向かって所定の圧力を負荷する)をかけながら送り出すことで、射出シリンダ1に充填される溶融樹脂4bの密度が均一なものとなり、それによって品質の安定した樹脂成形品が得られる。このように、規定量の第二の溶融樹脂4bの充填作業が完了したら、開閉弁4eを閉じて、第二樹脂流路4aと合流樹脂流路1aとの連絡流路を遮断する。   Next, the opening / closing valve 4e provided at the connection point between the joining resin flow path 1a of the injection cylinder 1 and the second resin flow path 4a of the second plasticizing device 4 is opened, and as shown in FIG. The second molten resin 4b is sent to the merging resin flow path 1a of the injection cylinder 1. At this time, the injection plunger 2 is fed while applying back pressure (loading a predetermined pressure toward the injection nozzle 5), so that the density of the molten resin 4b filled in the injection cylinder 1 becomes uniform. Thus, a resin molded product with stable quality can be obtained. Thus, when the filling operation of the prescribed amount of the second molten resin 4b is completed, the on-off valve 4e is closed, and the communication flow path between the second resin flow path 4a and the merged resin flow path 1a is shut off.

上記のように、規定量の第二の溶融樹脂4bを充填すると、射出シリンダ1の合流樹脂流路1aと第一の可塑化装置3の第一樹脂流路3aの接続箇所に設けた開閉弁3eを開放して、図3に示すように、第一の溶融樹脂3bを射出シリンダ1の合流樹脂流路1aに送り出す。この際も、上記と同様に、射出プランジャ2で背圧(射出ノズル5側へ向かって所定の圧力を負荷する)をかけながら溶融樹脂3bを送り出すようにする。合流樹脂流路1aには、既に規定量の第二の溶融樹脂4bが充填されているので、第一の溶融樹脂3bが第二の溶融樹脂4bの端部よりも射出ノズル5側に充填されることなく、第二の溶融樹脂4bの端部を境目に第一の溶融樹脂3bの流れが射出シリンダ1の基端部側へと変わり、射出シリンダ1の内部空間1bに充填されていく。   As described above, when the prescribed amount of the second molten resin 4b is filled, the on-off valve provided at the connection point between the joining resin flow path 1a of the injection cylinder 1 and the first resin flow path 3a of the first plasticizing device 3 3e is opened, and the first molten resin 3b is sent out to the merging resin flow path 1a of the injection cylinder 1 as shown in FIG. At this time, similarly to the above, the molten resin 3b is sent out while applying a back pressure (loading a predetermined pressure toward the injection nozzle 5) with the injection plunger 2. Since the merged resin flow path 1a is already filled with the prescribed amount of the second molten resin 4b, the first molten resin 3b is filled closer to the injection nozzle 5 than the end of the second molten resin 4b. Instead, the flow of the first molten resin 3b changes to the base end side of the injection cylinder 1 with the end of the second molten resin 4b as a boundary, and fills the internal space 1b of the injection cylinder 1.

上記のように、射出シリンダ1の合流樹脂流路1a内及び内部空間1bに、第一の溶融樹脂3b及び第二の溶融樹脂4bを充填すると、射出ノズル5に設けられた開閉弁5eを開放すると共に、射出プランジャ2を射出シリンダ1の先端部に向かって押し込むことにより可塑化された溶融樹脂3b,4bを金型6内に射出し、金型6内の内部空間に充填する。このとき、図8の(a)に示すように、まず、射出シリンダ1の先端側に充填された第二の溶融樹脂3bが金型6内に充填されていく。次いで、図8の(b)に示すように、射出シリンダ1の基端部(射出プランジャ2側)に充填された第一の溶融樹脂3bが金型6内に射出されて、先に金型6内に充填されている第二の溶融樹脂4bを金型6の内周面に向って押し広げながら金型6の中心に充填される。このようにして射出が完了すると、開閉弁5eを閉じて金型6を射出シリンダ1から取り外す。そして、溶融樹脂3b,4bが凝固すれば、第二の溶融樹脂4bが表面層を形成すると共に第一の溶融樹脂3bがコア層を形成した、樹脂混じりが殆どない二層構造の樹脂成形品が成形される。   As described above, when the first molten resin 3b and the second molten resin 4b are filled in the merged resin flow path 1a and the internal space 1b of the injection cylinder 1, the on-off valve 5e provided in the injection nozzle 5 is opened. At the same time, the molten resin 3b, 4b plasticized by pushing the injection plunger 2 toward the tip of the injection cylinder 1 is injected into the mold 6 and filled into the internal space of the mold 6. At this time, as shown in FIG. 8A, first, the mold 6 is filled with the second molten resin 3 b filled on the tip side of the injection cylinder 1. Next, as shown in FIG. 8 (b), the first molten resin 3b filled in the base end portion (injection plunger 2 side) of the injection cylinder 1 is injected into the mold 6, and the mold is first moved. The center of the mold 6 is filled while the second molten resin 4b filled in the mold 6 is expanded toward the inner peripheral surface of the mold 6. When injection is completed in this way, the on-off valve 5e is closed and the mold 6 is removed from the injection cylinder 1. When the molten resins 3b and 4b are solidified, the second molten resin 4b forms a surface layer and the first molten resin 3b forms a core layer. Is formed.

上記のように、1回目の射出(ファーストショット)が完了すると、図4に示すように、射出シリンダ1の合流樹脂流路1a及び射出シリンダ1の内部空間1bには第一の溶融樹脂3bが残存している。ここで、本発明の射出成形方法に用いる射出成形装置IMDは、第二の可塑化装置4の第二樹脂流路4aが、第一の可塑化装置3よりも射出ノズル5側の合流樹脂流路1aに接続されているので、図4に示す合流樹脂流路1a内及び射出シリンダ1の内部空間1bに第一の溶融樹脂3bが残存している状態からでも、第二の溶融樹脂4bを送り出すと、図5に示すように、合流樹脂流路1a内及び射出シリンダ1の内部空間1bに残っている第一の溶融樹脂3bを第二の溶融樹脂4bが射出プランジャ2側(射出シリンダ1の内部空間1b側)に押し戻しながら充填されていく(射出プランジャ2は送り出された第二の溶融樹脂4bの容積分だけ後退する)。しかしながら、本発明の射出成形方法に用いる射出成形装置IMDは、シンプル且つコンパクトなプリプラ式射出成形装置であるので、第一の溶融樹脂3bと第二の溶融樹脂4bをそれぞれ独立して射出することができない。このため、ノズルクリーニングができず、合流樹脂流路1a内に第一の溶融樹脂3bが残存している状態から第二の溶融樹脂4bを送り出したとしても、合流樹脂流路1aと第二樹脂流路4aとの接続箇所から射出ノズル5までの間の合流樹脂流路1a内には第一の溶融樹脂3bが残されてしまう。このように、合流樹脂流路1a内に第一の溶融樹脂3bが残されてしまうと、次ショットの際に、金型6内で表面層を形成する第二の溶融樹脂4bと混ざってしまい、第一と第二の溶融樹脂3b,4bが混ざった表面層を有する二層構造の樹脂成形品が得られてしまうことになる。この二種類の樹脂3b,4b混じりを最小限に抑えるため、本発明の射出成形装置IMDは、図1等に示すように、合流樹脂流路1aと第二樹脂流路4aとの接続箇所を、射出ノズル5の直近としている。   As described above, when the first injection (first shot) is completed, as shown in FIG. 4, the first molten resin 3 b is formed in the merged resin flow path 1 a of the injection cylinder 1 and the internal space 1 b of the injection cylinder 1. Remains. Here, in the injection molding apparatus IMD used for the injection molding method of the present invention, the second resin flow path 4a of the second plasticizing apparatus 4 has a combined resin flow on the injection nozzle 5 side with respect to the first plasticizing apparatus 3. Since the first molten resin 3b remains in the merged resin flow path 1a and the internal space 1b of the injection cylinder 1 shown in FIG. When fed out, as shown in FIG. 5, the first molten resin 3b remaining in the merged resin flow path 1a and the internal space 1b of the injection cylinder 1 is replaced with the second molten resin 4b on the injection plunger 2 side (injection cylinder 1). (Inside the internal space 1b side), it is filled while being pushed back (the injection plunger 2 moves backward by the volume of the second molten resin 4b fed out). However, since the injection molding apparatus IMD used for the injection molding method of the present invention is a simple and compact pre-plastic injection molding apparatus, the first molten resin 3b and the second molten resin 4b are independently injected. I can't. For this reason, even if nozzle cleaning cannot be performed and the second molten resin 4b is sent out from the state in which the first molten resin 3b remains in the merged resin flow path 1a, the merged resin flow path 1a and the second resin The first molten resin 3b remains in the merged resin flow path 1a between the connection portion with the flow path 4a and the injection nozzle 5. Thus, if the 1st molten resin 3b is left in the confluence | merging resin flow path 1a, it will mix with the 2nd molten resin 4b which forms a surface layer in the metal mold 6 in the next shot. Thus, a two-layered resin molded product having a surface layer in which the first and second molten resins 3b and 4b are mixed will be obtained. In order to minimize the mixing of the two types of resins 3b and 4b, the injection molding apparatus IMD of the present invention has a connecting portion between the merged resin flow path 1a and the second resin flow path 4a as shown in FIG. In the vicinity of the injection nozzle 5.

そして、図6に示すように、規定量の第二の溶融樹脂4bを合流樹脂流路1aに送り出すと、射出プランジャ2はその送り出された第二の溶融樹脂4bの容積分だけ更に後退し、その後、射出シリンダ1の合流樹脂流路1aと第二の可塑化装置4の第二樹脂流路4aの接続箇所に設けた開閉弁4eを閉じると共に、射出シリンダ1の合流樹脂流路1aと第一の可塑化装置3の第一樹脂流路3aの接続箇所に設けられた開閉弁3eを開放し、第一の溶融樹脂3bを射出シリンダ1に送り出す。このように、第一の溶融樹脂3bを合流樹脂流路1aに送り出すと、第一の溶融樹脂3bが、既に充填されている第二の溶融樹脂4bを射出ノズル5側に押し出そうとする力が働くが、合流樹脂流路1aと第二樹脂流路4aの接続箇所の開閉弁4e及び射出ノズル5側の開閉弁5eは閉じられているので、第二の溶融樹脂4bが逆流することはなく、第二の溶融樹脂4bが壁のような役割を果たして、第一の溶融樹脂3bがそれより先に充填されるのが防止され、図7に示すように、第一の溶融樹脂3bは射出シリンダ1の合流樹脂流路1aの先端側に充填されることなく、射出シリンダ1の内部空間1bに充填されることになる(射出プランジャ2は、その送り出された第一の溶融樹脂3bの容積分だけ射出プランジャ2は更に後退する)。このように、合流樹脂流路1a内に残存している第一の溶融樹脂3bを、第二の溶融樹脂4bを送り出すことで射出プランジャ2側に押し戻したのち第一の溶融樹脂3bを充填することで、第二の溶融樹脂4bと第一の溶融樹脂3bの境界が明確となると共に、溶融樹脂3b,4bが合流樹脂流路1a内及び射出シリンダ1の内部空間1bに常に充填されている状態となるので、その後、前述したように射出シリンダ1内の第一の溶融樹脂3bと第二の溶融樹脂4bを一度に金型6内に射出しても、射出プランジャ2によって背圧をかけながら溶融樹脂3b,4bが送り出されるので、溶融樹脂3b,4bの樹脂密度が一定に保たれて、樹脂混じりが殆どない安定した品質の二層構造の樹脂成形品を成形することができる。   Then, as shown in FIG. 6, when the prescribed amount of the second molten resin 4b is sent to the merged resin flow path 1a, the injection plunger 2 is further retracted by the volume of the sent second molten resin 4b, Thereafter, the on-off valve 4e provided at the connection point between the joined resin flow path 1a of the injection cylinder 1 and the second resin flow path 4a of the second plasticizing device 4 is closed, and the joined resin flow path 1a of the injection cylinder 1 and the second The on-off valve 3e provided at the connection point of the first resin flow path 3a of one plasticizing device 3 is opened, and the first molten resin 3b is sent to the injection cylinder 1. In this way, when the first molten resin 3b is sent to the merged resin flow path 1a, the first molten resin 3b tries to push the already filled second molten resin 4b toward the injection nozzle 5 side. Although the force works, the on-off valve 4e at the connection point between the merging resin flow path 1a and the second resin flow path 4a and the on-off valve 5e on the injection nozzle 5 side are closed, so that the second molten resin 4b flows backward. Rather, the second molten resin 4b plays a role like a wall, and the first molten resin 3b is prevented from being filled before that, as shown in FIG. Is filled in the inner space 1b of the injection cylinder 1 without being filled in the front end side of the merged resin flow path 1a of the injection cylinder 1 (the injection plunger 2 is supplied with the first molten resin 3b sent out). The injection plunger 2 is further retracted by the volume ofIn this way, after the first molten resin 3b remaining in the merged resin flow path 1a is pushed back to the injection plunger 2 side by sending out the second molten resin 4b, the first molten resin 3b is filled. As a result, the boundary between the second molten resin 4b and the first molten resin 3b becomes clear, and the molten resins 3b and 4b are always filled in the merged resin flow path 1a and the internal space 1b of the injection cylinder 1. After that, even if the first molten resin 3b and the second molten resin 4b in the injection cylinder 1 are injected into the mold 6 at a time as described above, back pressure is applied by the injection plunger 2. However, since the molten resins 3b and 4b are sent out, the resin density of the molten resins 3b and 4b can be kept constant, and a two-layered resin molded product having a stable quality with almost no resin mixing can be formed.

尚、本実施形態では、射出シリンダ1内に溶融樹脂3b,4bが一切充填されていないまっさらな状態で、第二の溶融樹脂4bから先に充填して、一回目の射出(ファーストショット)を行う態様を詳述したが、射出シリンダ1内に第一の溶融樹脂3bを充填させてからスタートする態様もある。即ち、射出ノズル5に金型6を取り付けない状態で、第一の溶融樹脂3bを合流樹脂流路1aに送り出して充填し、その状態で射出プランジャ2を前進させて射出する(フリーショット)。フリーショットが完了すると、前述した図4に示す状態、即ち、合流樹脂流路1a内に第一の溶融樹脂3bが残存している状態となり、その後は、前述したように、第二の溶融樹脂4bを送り出して合流樹脂流路1a内に残存している第一の溶融樹脂3bを射出シリンダ1側に押し戻して(図5)、次いで第一の溶融樹脂3bを送り出して射出シリンダ1内に充填し(図6、図7)、最後に射出プランジャ2を前進させて射出することで、前述した実施形態と同様に、樹脂混じりが殆どない二層構造の樹脂成形品を成形することができる。特に、この実施形態は、フリーショットで第一の溶融樹脂3bを合流樹脂流路1a内に充填してからスタートするものであり、常に溶融樹脂3b,4bが合流樹脂流路1aや射出シリンダ1の内部空間1bに充填された状態で、射出プランジャ2によって背圧をかけながら溶融樹脂3b,4bを送り出すことができるので、合流樹脂流路1a内が空っぽの状態からスタートするよりも、溶融樹脂3b,4bの密度を一定に保つことができ、最初から安定して品質の良い樹脂成形品を得ることができる好ましい形態といえる。   In the present embodiment, the first injection (first shot) is performed by filling the injection cylinder 1 first with the second molten resin 4b in a clean state in which the molten resin 3b, 4b is not filled at all. Although the aspect which performs is described in full detail, there also exists an aspect which starts, after filling the injection cylinder 1 with the 1st molten resin 3b. That is, in a state where the mold 6 is not attached to the injection nozzle 5, the first molten resin 3b is sent and filled into the merged resin flow path 1a, and in this state, the injection plunger 2 is advanced and injected (free shot). When the free shot is completed, the state shown in FIG. 4 described above, that is, the state in which the first molten resin 3b remains in the merged resin flow path 1a, and thereafter, as described above, the second molten resin is obtained. 4b is sent out to push the first molten resin 3b remaining in the merged resin flow path 1a back to the injection cylinder 1 side (FIG. 5), and then the first molten resin 3b is sent out to fill the injection cylinder 1 (FIGS. 6 and 7), and finally, the injection plunger 2 is advanced and injected, so that a resin molded product having a two-layer structure with almost no resin mixing can be formed as in the above-described embodiment. In particular, this embodiment starts after the first molten resin 3b is filled into the merged resin flow path 1a by free shot, and the molten resins 3b and 4b are always added to the merged resin flow path 1a and the injection cylinder 1. Since the molten resin 3b, 4b can be sent out while applying back pressure by the injection plunger 2 in a state in which the internal space 1b is filled, the molten resin can be used rather than starting from an empty state in the merged resin flow path 1a. It can be said that the density of 3b and 4b can be kept constant, and it can be said that it is a preferable form which can obtain a resin molded product with good quality stably from the beginning.

以上の説明から明らかなように、本発明の射出成形方法及び射出成形装置IMDは、可塑化装置3,4と射出装置IUとが独立したシンプル且つコンパクトなプリプラ式の射出成形装置IMDを用いるので、設置場所の確保が容易で、精密な二層構造の樹脂成形品を成形することができる。また、射出装置IUを持たない第一の可塑化装置3と第二の可塑化装置4を用いることで、射出は一度だけで済み、射出するタイミングや射出圧などの複雑な制御も不要となる。しかも、この際に用いる射出成形装置IMDは、第二の可塑化装置4の第二樹脂流路4aが、第一の可塑化装置3よりも射出ノズル5側(射出ノズル5の直近)に接続されているので、第二の溶融樹脂4bを射出シリンダ1の合流樹脂流路1aに送り出すと、合流樹脂流路1a内に残っている第一の溶融樹脂3bが、その送り出された第二の溶融樹脂4bによって射出プランジャ2側に押し戻されて、合流樹脂流路1a内に残存している第一の溶融樹脂3bと第二の溶融樹脂4bとが混ざることが殆どなくなるので、二種類の溶融樹脂3b,4bの混じりが殆どない二層の樹脂成形品を得ることができる。このような優れた作用効果を奏する射出成形装置IMDは、可塑化装置を1つ有する既存のプリプラ式射出成形装置に、別の可塑化装置を、既存の可塑化装置よりも射出ノズル側に接続するという簡単な改良で得ることができる。   As is clear from the above description, the injection molding method and injection molding apparatus IMD of the present invention uses a simple and compact pre-plastic injection molding apparatus IMD in which the plasticizing apparatuses 3 and 4 and the injection apparatus IU are independent. It is easy to secure the installation location, and it is possible to mold a resin molded product with a precise two-layer structure. Further, by using the first plasticizing device 3 and the second plasticizing device 4 that do not have the injection device IU, injection is only required once, and complicated control such as injection timing and injection pressure becomes unnecessary. . In addition, in the injection molding apparatus IMD used at this time, the second resin flow path 4a of the second plasticizing apparatus 4 is connected to the injection nozzle 5 side (closest to the injection nozzle 5) than the first plasticizing apparatus 3. Therefore, when the second molten resin 4b is sent out to the merged resin flow path 1a of the injection cylinder 1, the first molten resin 3b remaining in the merged resin flow path 1a is transferred to the second molten resin flowed out. Since the first molten resin 3b and the second molten resin 4b which are pushed back to the injection plunger 2 side by the molten resin 4b and remain in the merged resin flow path 1a are hardly mixed, two types of melting are performed. It is possible to obtain a two-layered resin molded product in which the resins 3b and 4b are hardly mixed. The injection molding apparatus IMD having such an excellent effect is connected to an existing pre-plastic injection molding apparatus having one plasticizing apparatus and another plasticizing apparatus closer to the injection nozzle than the existing plasticizing apparatus. It can be obtained with a simple improvement.

更に、本発明の射出成形装置IMDは、上記実施形態のように、第二の可塑化装置4の第二樹脂流路4aが第一の可塑化装置3よりも射出ノズル5側に接続されていれば図1に示すような形状に限定されるものではなく、例えば、第二樹脂流路4aを合流樹脂流路1aの中心に挿入して、第二樹脂流路4aの先端開口を射出ノズル5直近(開閉弁5e直近)まで延設した射出成形装置IMDでもよい。この場合、第二樹脂流路4aの先端開口から送り出される第二の溶融樹脂4bは、第二樹脂流路4aの中心軸を中心として放射状に逆流するため、第二樹脂流路4aの先端開口形状を先窄まりの台形状にすると、スムーズに第一の溶融樹脂3bを射出シリンダ1内に押し戻すことができる。また、射出ノズル5直近の開閉弁5eをニードル弁とすることもでき、その場合は、ニードル弁の周囲に第二樹脂流路4aを円環状に形成し、その先端開口を射出ノズル5直近まで延設することで対応することができる。   Furthermore, in the injection molding apparatus IMD of the present invention, the second resin flow path 4a of the second plasticizing apparatus 4 is connected to the injection nozzle 5 side of the first plasticizing apparatus 3 as in the above embodiment. 1 is not limited to the shape shown in FIG. 1, for example, the second resin flow path 4a is inserted into the center of the merged resin flow path 1a, and the tip opening of the second resin flow path 4a is injected into the injection nozzle. It may be an injection molding apparatus IMD extended up to 5 (closest to the on-off valve 5e). In this case, the second molten resin 4b sent out from the front end opening of the second resin flow path 4a flows backward radially around the central axis of the second resin flow path 4a, and therefore the front end opening of the second resin flow path 4a. If the trapezoidal shape is tapered, the first molten resin 3b can be smoothly pushed back into the injection cylinder 1. Alternatively, the on-off valve 5e immediately adjacent to the injection nozzle 5 can be a needle valve. In this case, the second resin flow path 4a is formed in an annular shape around the needle valve, and the tip opening thereof extends to the vicinity of the injection nozzle 5. It can cope by extending.
