The present invention relates to an injection device, and more particularly to an injection device used in a die-casting machine, using a servo motor as a power source to allow molten metal to be poured in a mold.
Conventional die casting is pouring molten metal of better fusibility, such as aluminum, zinc, magnesium or copper alloy into a high heat-resistant metal mold in a fast high-pressure mechanical way, and then, solidifying it into shape rapidly by means of the lower temperature of the mold.
General high chamber die casting machines are mainly configured with a base, on which a mold is mounted, where an injection port is configured on one side of the mold, and a fusion furnace located beside the base. In addition, an oil cylinder is configured above the fusion furnace, and one end of the oil cylinder is in match connection with the injection port of the mold through a discharge head, thereby pouring molten metal into a high heat resistant metal mold fast, mechanically with high pressure. However, since either a gas cylinder or oil cylinder is used as a power source in conventional die casting machines, the movement stroke and speed can not be precisely controlled, and must be adjusted by experienced personnel. In addition, the oil cylinder will cause the working environment to be greasy.
In view of the shortcomings mentioned above, the main object of the present invention is to provide a full-servo multi-axis injection device for a die-casting machine, replacing a pneumatic cylinder or hydraulic cylinder with a servo motor, allowing an operation stroke to be more precise, capable of in response to various manufacturing methods because the servo motor can be set with a stroke, and without noise caused from the pneumatic cylinder and grease from the hydraulic cylinder.
To achieve the object mentioned above, the present invention proposes a full-servo multi-axis injection device for a die-casting machine, including a main body, including a hollow frame, servo motor, screw rod, transmission unit, and injection unit, the servo motor being configured on a top of the frame, one end of the servo motor having a deceleration mechanism in connection with one end of the screw rod, another end of the screw rod being in connection with the transmission unit, another end of the transmission unit the injection unit, and the injection unit having at least one input and at least one output.
The frame is further configured with a partition having a through hole for the insertion of the screw rod therein, and the screw rod a third fixing element in connection with the partition and having a bearing in connection with the screw rod; one side of the frame is opened with a position limiting hole, and one side of the transmission unit is configured with an engagement portion passed through the position limiting hole.
Whereby, the servo motor drives the screw rod to rotate upon running, and the transmission unit converts the rotation of the screw rod to a vertical reciprocating movement.

A partition having a through hole (not shown in the figures) is further configured in the frame 11, and the screw rod 13 is passed through the through hole. Furthermore, the screw rod 13 is provided with a third fixing element 132 in connection with the partition 111, and a bearing 1321 in connection with the screw rod 13 is further configured on the third fixing element 132. Furthermore, a position limiting hole 112 is configured on one side of the frame 11, and an engagement portion 141 is projected from one side of the transmission unit 14, where the engagement portion 141 is passed through the position limiting hole 112.
Furthermore, the injection unit 15 is provided with a through hole (not shown in the figures) for the insertion of the screw rod 13 therein, and the input 151 and output 152 are respectively positioned on the bottom face and one side of the injection unit 15, with the two sides of the injection unit 15 being respectively configured slidably on a guide rail 153 and further respectively projected with a combination portion 154.
Thereupon, the servo motor 12 drives the screw rod 13 to rotate upon running, and the transmission unit 14 converts the rotation of the screw rod 13 to a vertical reciprocating movement through the structures mentioned above.
