Abstract

The sealant injector for molding a display frame is provided for extruding the sealant out of the cavity, the large impurity particles could be insulated from the filtrating holes for preventing the mixing particles or the air bubble forcing out from the spray nozzle. The extrusion sealant could be more uniform. The sealant could be coated on the base board with the filtering and forcing. Accordingly, it would increase the continuation, the stability, the strength and the tenacity of the sealant and then improve the rate of good products. On the process of filtering and extruding together, it could reduce the molding time and improve the manufacture efficiency. The present invention also provides a method for injection molding a display frame using the sealant injector.

First claim

What is claimed is:

1. A sealant injector for molding a display frame, comprising a cavity, an opening being opened on the top of the cavity for connecting with high pressure nitrogen, and a spray nozzle located at the bottom of the cavity, a sealant filling in the cavity being extruded from the spray nozzle, a filtrating equipment is located in the cavity for filtering a plurality of larger impurity particles mixing with the sealant, the cavity is separated into an upper cavity and an under cavity by the filtrating equipment, and a step is forming between the upper cavity and the under cavity for holding the filtrating equipment, the filtering equipment having a plurality of the filtrating holes as openings, and two gas-guide tubes are separately inserted into the upper cavity and the under cavity for connecting the high pressure nitrogen.

2. The sealant injector for molding a display frame of claim 1 , wherein the pressure of the upper cavity is greater than the pressure in the under cavity before molding, and the pressure of the upper cavity is equal to or less than the pressure in the under cavity while molding.

3. The sealant injector for molding a display frame of claim 2 , wherein the gas-guide tubes comprise an inner gas-guide tube and an outer gas-guide tube enwrapping together, the inner gas-guide tube is inserted into the filtrating equipment which the one end of the inner gas-guide tube is connecting with the high pressure nitrogen and the other end is lead into the under cavity, the outer gas-guide tube is around the inner gas-guide tube for leading the high pressure nitrogen into the under cavity.

4. The sealant injector for molding a display frame of claim 3 , wherein the pressure difference between the upper cavity and the under cavity is 0˜0.7 MPa.

5. The sealant injector for molding a display frame of claim 1 , wherein the inner diameter of the upper cavity is larger than that of the under cavity.

6. The sealant injector for molding a display frame of claim 1 , wherein the gap between the filtrating holes is equal to each other and the shape thereof could be selected from the circular, the square or the oblong shape.

7. The sealant injector for molding a display frame of claim 4 , wherein the diameter of the holes are 10˜50 μm, the inner diameter of the outlet of the spray nozzle is 150˜500 μm.

8. The sealant injector for molding a display frame of claim 1 , wherein the filtrating equipment is assembled at the inner wall of the sealant injector with screws.

9. A method for injection molding a display frame using a sealant injector, comprising the following steps:
1) inserting a filtrating equipment into a cavity to separate the cavity into an upper cavity and an under cavity;
2) connecting one end of an inner gas-guide tube to high pressure nitrogen and inserting the other end into the filtrating equipment;
3) filling sealant in the cavity to package it;
4) leading the high pressure nitrogen separately into the under cavity via the inner gas-guide tube and into the upper cavity via the outer gas-guide tube to force the sealant into the under cavity, and then to be force out from the spray nozzle with a plurality of larger impurity particles filtered by the filtrating equipment; and
5) molding the extrusive sealant in the mould to form the display frame.

10. The method for injection molding a display frame using the sealant injector of claim 9 , wherein before molding, the pressure of the upper cavity is greater than the pressure in the under cavity, and while molding, the pressure of the upper cavity is equal to or than the pressure in the under cavity.

11. The method for injection molding a display frame using the sealant injector of claim 10 , wherein the pressure difference between the upper cavity and the under cavity is 0˜0.7 MPa.

12. The method for injection molding a display frame using the sealant injector of claim 10 , wherein the inner diameter of the upper cavity is larger than that of the under cavity.

13. The method for injection molding a display frame using the sealant injector of claim 9 , wherein the gap between the filtrating holes is equal to each other.

14. The method for injection molding a display frame using the sealant injector of claim 13 , wherein the diameter of the holes are 10˜50 μm.

15. The method for injection molding a display frame using the sealant injector of claim 9 , wherein, the inner diameter of the outlet of the spray nozzle is 150˜500 μm.
