Plasticizing Device, Injection Molding Device, Three Dimensional Shaping Device - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18323622 titled 'Plasticizing Device, Injection Molding Device, Three Dimensional Shaping Device

Simplified Explanation

The abstract describes a plasticizing device that is used to process plastic materials.

  • The device includes two rotating screws, each with a groove forming surface.
  • These screws are housed in a barrel, which has facing surfaces that correspond to the groove forming surfaces of the screws.
  • The barrel also has a communication hole through which the processed material is discharged.
  • The device includes a heating section to heat the material as it is fed into the grooves of the screws.
  • The purpose of the device is to efficiently plasticize and process plastic materials.


Original Abstract Submitted

A plasticizing device includes a first flat screw including a first groove forming surface in which a groove is formed and configured to rotate; a second flat screw including a second groove forming surface in which a groove is formed and configured to rotate; a barrel including a first facing surface facing the first groove forming surface and a second facing surface facing the second groove forming surface and formed with a communication hole through which a plasticized material is fed outside; and a heating section configured to heat the material supplied to the grooves of the first flat screw and of the second flat screw.
