relates to an apparatus for manufacturing magnetic plastic rotor disks. and more particularly to such an apparatus suitable for production of flattened columnar magnetic plastic rotor disks to be used as meter rotors. for example.
Such a magnetic plastic rotor disk is conventionally used for a vehicle meter such as a vehicle speed meter and an engine speed meter for indicating rotating speeds corresponding to a vehicle speed and rotational frequency of the engine thereof. Fig.4 shows a magnetic plastic rotor disk b having a central rotary shaft a and magnetized in one direction perpendicular to the rotary shaft a to have an N-pole and an S-pole at diametrically opposite positions. The magnetic plastic rotor disk b is required to have a charact-eristic as shown in Fig.5 wherein distribution of a magnetic flux density on outer circumferential surface of the magnetic plasti rotor disk b varies sinusoidally with respect rotary angle of the magnetic Fig.6 shows a convention manufacturing such a magneti Referring to Fig.6, a magnet t o a plastic rotor disk b. al apparatus for c plastic rotor disk. ic plastic material A and a magnetic powder is injected from an injection device B through a sprue and runner D formed in a two-plate side gate type mold C 1 ' -, i nt o a d c s i g plurality of cavities E. A reference numeral F ates a yoke around which a coil (not shown) is wound. The yoke F is so located as to surround a parting surfact C' of the mold C. so that a magnetic field is applied to the magnetic plastic material A injected into the cavities in one direction as shown in Fig.7 to thereby magnetize the magnetic powder contained in the material A so that the particles of the magnetic powder are magnetized in the same magnetic orientation.
However, since this conventional magnetic plastic rotor disk manufacturing apparatus is of a side gate type having two plates. a gate blush remarkably appears on the externa disk after moldi distribution of magnetic plastic surfaces of the magnetic plastic rotor ng, causing turbulence of the the surface magnetic flux density of the rotor disk. characteristic of the magnetic be obtained. Accordingly, it 1 deflashing process after a gat As a result. a desired plastic rotor disk cannot 5 necessary to conduct a e cutting process. Further. if the magnetic plastic rotor disk is in a magnetized condition in the deflashing process, small flash particles generated in the deflashing process will be magnetically attached to the rotor disk. Therefore, it is necessary to demagnetize the rotor disk before the deflashing process and then magnetize the same again after the deflashing process. Thus, many troublesome processes are necessary after molding in the prior art device, causing an increase in production cost.
It is an object of the present invention to provide a magnetic plastic rotor disk manufacturing apparatus which may eliminate the necessity of the aforementioned troublesome processes after molding of the magnetic plastic material.
According to the present invention, there is provided an apparatus for manufacturing magnetic plastic rotor disks, comprising an injection device for injecting a magnetic plastic material containing a synthetic resin matrix and a magnetic powder; a mold for molding the magnetic plastic material injected thereinto from the injection device, the mold comprising a threeplate type mold constructed of two retainer plates and a single runner stripper plate, one of the retainer plates g formed with a plurality of cavities, while the other retainer plate being formed with a plurality of pin gates corresponding to the cavities so as to supply the magnetic plastic material through the pin gates into the cavities; and means for generating a magnetic field and magnetizing the magnetic powder in a direction along a diameter of the magnetic plastic rotor disk.
b e 1 n In the above-mentioned manufacturing apparatus, one (if opposite end surfaces of each magnetic rotor disk having a columnar shape is molded by each cavity formed tin one of the two retainer plates, and the pin gates are formed in the other retainer plate in such a manner as to be connected with the cavities. With this rangement. when the mold is opened to split the two retainer plates form each other, the pin gates are automaticully cut with greatly small gate blush remaining. Acc(irdingly, it is unnecessary to conduct the gate cutting process and the gate blush removing process after molding of the magnetic plastic material. Since the gate blush removing process is unnecessary, it necessary to remove the magnetism of the moldings e, magnetic rotor disks may also be greatly i s no and magnetize the moldings again. Therefo characteristic of the magnetic plastic be improved, and a reduced.
Furthermore, th constructed of a production cost may e injection device is preferably screw injection device having a screw head provided with a check valve for preventing backflow of the magnetic plastic material. Accordingly, although an injection force is enlarged by the use of pin gates, the backflow of the material upon injection may prevented. As a result, a cushion quantity may ensured to greatly improve shot scattering of the be be 1 1 material into the cavities, thereby improving the quality and magnetic characteristic of the moldings.
