  • Assignees: MHT Mold & Hotrunner Technology AG (Hochheim, DE)
  • Claim: 1-15. (canceled)
  • Claim: 16. A system for the post-treatment of preforms (9) produced by means of injection moulding, comprising i) a removal element (4) having: a) at least one receiving element (5) for receiving a preform (9), and b) a device for moving the removal element (4) between two tool halves of an opened injection moulding mould and for moving the removal element (4) out of the opened injection moulding mould, ii) a post-treatment element (6) having a) at least one post-treatment pin (7) a1) having a pin-shaped passage element (7), a11) of which one end can be connected to the environment or a vacuum or reduced-pressure source and a12) of which the other end has an outlet (18) for a coolant, and iii) a motion device with which the removal element (4) can be reciprocated relative to the post-treatment element (6) between a first position in which the post-treatment pin (7) is positioned within the receiving element (5) and a second position in which the post-treatment pin (7) is not positioned within the receiving element (5),wherein the removal element (4) and the post-treatment element (6) are so designed that in the first position coolant can be introduced by way of the coolant inlet into a preform (9) held in the receiving element (5) in such a way that it can flow between the inside wall of the preform (9) and the outside wall of the pin-shaped passage element (7) to the coolant outlet (18) and can be discharged by way of the passage element (7).
  • Claim: 17. A system according to claim 16 wherein the post-treatment element (6) has a coolant inlet arranged outside the pin-shaped passage element (7), wherein the coolant inlet is preferably in the form of a sleeve (11) surrounding the pin-shaped passage element (7) so that the coolant can be fed by way of a preferably annular gap formed between the pin-shaped passage element (7) and the sleeve (11).
  • Claim: 18. A system according to claim 17 wherein there is provided a flow machine which provides at the coolant inlet a cooling fluid pressure of between 1 and 3 bars, preferably between 1 and 1.5 bars and at best between 1 and 1.2 bars.
  • Claim: 19. A system according to claim 16 wherein there is provided a flow machine which provides at the coolant outlet (18) a cooling fluid pressure of less than 1 bar, preferably between 0.8 and 1 bar and particularly preferably between 0.9 and 0.99 bar.
  • Claim: 20. A system according to claim 16 wherein the post-treatment element (6) has at least one transfer element (8) with which a preform (9) can be transferred from the removal element (4) to the post-treatment element (6).
  • Claim: 21. A system according to claim 20 wherein the transfer element (8) has a transfer sleeve (11), wherein the transfer sleeve (11) has a through passage (21) of which the first end can be connected to a vacuum source and the second end ends in the first position within a preform (9) received in the receiving element (5), the second end preferably being arranged at the peripheral surface of the sleeve (11).
  • Claim: 22. A system according to claim 20 wherein the transfer element (8) has a compressed air connection, by way of which compressed air can be introduced into the preform (9) received in the receiving element (5) to eject the preform (9) from the transfer element (8).
  • Claim: 23. A system according to claim 16 wherein air is used as the coolant.
  • Claim: 24. A system according to claim 16 wherein the post-treatment element (6) has a coolant distributor plate including a plurality of post-treatment pins (7).
  • Claim: 25. A system according to claim 24 wherein the coolant distributor plate can be rotated about an axis of rotation to eject preforms (9) which were transferred from the removal element (4) on to the coolant distributor plate, wherein preferably the coolant distributor plate can be rotated through about 90°.
  • Claim: 26. A system according to claim 24 wherein the flow machine is fixed to the coolant distributor plate and has an intake and an outlet, wherein the intake is connected to the coolant inlet or the coolant outlet of the at least one post-treatment pin (7) while the outlet is connected to a coolant distributor plate opening relative to the environment, or the outlet is connected to the coolant inlet or the coolant outlet of the at least one post-treatment pin (7) while the intake is connected to the coolant distributor plate opening relative to the environment, wherein the coolant distributor plate opening is preferably arranged at the side of the coolant distributor plate, that is opposite to the post-treatment pins (7).
  • Claim: 27. A system according to claim 16 wherein the sleeve in the form of the coolant inlet has an outer periphery which approximately corresponds to a portion of the inside contour of the preform to be cooled so that in the first position the outside of the coolant inlet sleeve is in contact with the inside of the preform.
  • Claim: 28. A system according to claim 25 wherein the coolant distributor plate has cooling passages for the feed of a coolant for cooling the coolant distributor plate.
  • Claim: 29. A system according to claim 16 wherein there is provided a closure cap which can be fitted on to the passage element and/or the coolant inlet and/or the transfer element to close same.
  • Claim: 30. A system according to claim 17 wherein the sleeve (11) is of such a configuration that coolant can be supplied by way of the sleeve in such a way that a part of the coolant is discharged by way of the coolant outlet (18) and another part is discharged by way of the opening of the preform (9).
