In order to implement the utility model, implement following steps when the blow step of storage tank forming method.
In this stage, the parison be made up of two sheet materials 18 is extruded, and each sheet material 18 is between to be inserted in two mould parts of core rod and mould each.Mould closes on core rod.
Impeller 21 and movable block part 19 are placed in their primary importance.Ditch channel mould 23 is closed on the position of Fig. 2.
Then, between each sheet material 18 and core rod, inject pressurized air, with the shape making each sheet material form mould part, this sheet material is also covered on this mould part thus.This air blowing causes the plastic material of sheet material 18 towards cavity 31 and the flowing at this cavity inside.Therefore, in core side, sheet material 18 forms spill 18A.
When the material of sheet material 18 is towards cavity 31 internal flow, impeller 21 is made to be advanced to its second place shown by dashed lines.The head 21A of impeller enters into cavity 31, and shoulder 21B then leans on sheet material 18.Therefore, as shown by dashed lines, sheet material 18 forms the shape corresponding to core side.Especially, impeller 21 plays the effect of the molded element for sheet material, and forms the plane 30 corresponding to following inner raised edge 14.
In the second time, be arranged in by movable block part 19 in its second place shown by dashed lines, wherein said second time determines according to the operating condition (these operating conditions are especially by the limit temperature of the element of the thickness of parison, the time span of air blowing and pressure, existence) of blowing.
Thus, sheet material 18 forms corresponding shape, namely has above with reference to the ringwise radial plane surface 9 described in Fig. 4 and the inner plane 12 corresponding to following inner raised edge 11.In other words, movable block part 19 plays the effect of the molded element for sheet material 18.
Once impeller 21 and movable block part 19 both arrive their second place, impeller and movable block part all keep motionless, until blow step terminates.According to the molded parameters of storage tank, the utility model can carry out (in this case in whole blow step, the utility model starts with injection pressurized air simultaneously, and terminate when stopping air blowing pressure), or can only carry out during a part of blow step (such as, the utility model can start and/or terminated before stopping air blowing pressure after injection air).
After sheet material 18 is cooled to be enough to allow the storage tank demoulding, two mould parts of mould are separated, and ditch channel mould 23 is opened, and storage tank is by the demoulding.
Then, operated by reprocessing, to the wall of storage tank at its enterprising eleven punch 11 of whole thickness between plane 12 and plane 30, to cut the inner surface 13 of groove and to limit inner raised edge 11 and 14.For this reason, use perforating tool, this instrument is fastened in the depression 17 of groove 5.
In the embodiment of Fig. 6 and Fig. 7, use impeller 21 ', the head 21 ' A of this impeller is less than the head 21A of above-mentioned impeller 21.Therefore, impeller 21 ' reserves sideshake between sheet material 18 and head 21 ' A, and this sideshake can control the flowing of material better when welding ditch Slot shaping.
Consider the distance A between impeller head 21 ' A and mould part measured in the direction of motion of impeller, distance B between the impeller head 21 ' A that the direction of moving transverse to impeller is measured and mould part, and the distance C between the impeller shoulder 21 ' B measured in the impeller direction of motion and mould part, observe ratio A/B and be less than 4, and the numerical value of C is less than 6mm.
Inventor is demonstrating according to the measurement that the storage tank of the utility model manufacture is implemented, and the barrier layer distance surface 9 of multilayer parison is sufficiently far away, can not damage this barrier layer after making this surface 9 with welding of attachment component (such as: ascending pipe).The suitable position of this barrier layer in tank wall comes from when blow step, the effect of impeller 21, and is strengthened by the effect of movable block part 19.
In addition, for the multilayer parison comprising pure material and salvage material (such as coming from the recovery of dead meal), the distribution of the layer of multilayer parison keeps considerably even, if and there is no the effect of impeller 21, just can observe, can be tending towards lacking pure material in welding groove, and occur too much salvage material.
The utility model is not restricted to shown embodiment, and other embodiments are apparent for a person skilled in the art.
