An electro-mechanical drive apparatus uses a single variable speed motor (20),
two one-way clutches (42, 66), and a hydraulic
accumulator (48) to provide both hydraulic power for the linear motion axes
and rotation of the plasticizing screw (14) in an injection
molding machine. When engaged, the first one-way clutch (42) couples the drive
motor (20) to the pump stack (26), while the second
one-way clutch (66) couples the motor (20) to the feed screw (14). During
rotation of the drive motor (20) in a forward direction, (a) the
first one-way clutch (42) engages, rotating the shaft of the hydraulic pump
stack (26) to power the machines hydraulic systems and charge
the accumulator (48); and (b) the second one-way clutch slips. When the drive
motor (20) is rotated in a reverse direction, (a) the second
one-way clutch (66) engages, rotating the feed screw (14), and (b) the first
one-way clutch (42) slips. Preferably, the drive apparatus is
associated with a double shaft motor (20) mounted adjacent separate drive
couplings for the feed screw (14) and hydraulic pump stack (26).
Cette invention concerne un appareil d'entraînement électromécanique qui comprend un seul moteur électrique à vitesse variable (20), deux embrayages unidirectionnels (42, 66), ainsi qu'un accumulateur hydraulique (48) qui va fournir la force hydraulique nécessaire aux axes de déplacement linéaires et à la rotation de la vis de plastification (14) dans une machine de moulage par injection. Lorsqu'ils sont actionnés, le premier embrayage unidirectionnel (42) couple le moteur d'entraînement (20) à la cuve (26) de la pompe, tandis que le second embrayage unidirectionnel (66) couple le moteur (20) à la vis d'alimentation (14). Lorsque le moteur d'entraînement (20) tourne en avant, (a) le premier embrayage unidirectionnel (42) s'enclenche et fait tourner l'arbre de la cuve (26) de la pompe hydraulique afin d'entraîner les systèmes hydrauliques des machines et de charger l'accumulateur (48), tandis que (b) le second embrayage unidirectionnel tourne à vide. Lorsque le moteur d'entraînement (20) tourne en arrière, (a) le second embrayage unidirectionnel (66) s'enclenche et fait tourner la vis d'alimentation (14), tandis que (b) le premier embrayage unidirectionnel (42) tourne à vide. L'appareil d'entraînement est de préférence associé à un moteur (20) à deux arbres qui est monté à proximité de couplages d'entraînement distincts pour la vis d'alimentation (14) et la cuve (26) de la pompe hydraulique.
