Abstract

The invention relates to an injection molding device, in particular for plastics, with at least two controls, which are connected to data display units via data display lines. In this case, the individual data display lines (51-53) have controllable switches (21-23), and also a control device (31) for controlling the switches (21-23), the switches (21-23) being connected in the closed state to a main data line (55), which lead to a common data display unit (11).

Claims

1. An injection molding device, in particular for plastics, with at least two controls, which are connected to data display units via data display lines, characterized in that the individual data display lines (51-53) have controllable switches (21-23), in that a control device (31) is provided for controlling the switches (21-23), and in that the switches (21-23) are connected in the closed state to a main data line (55), which lead to a common data display unit (11).

2. The injection molding device as claimed in claim 1, characterized in that the data display unit (11) is a screen, which has a touch-screen functional unit (12) with which the switches (21-23) can be controlled.

3. The injection molding device as claimed in claim 1, characterized in that the control device (31) is constructed in such a way that a later extension by adding at least one additional switch (24) is possible.

4. The injection molding device as claimed in one of the preceding claims, characterized in that the control device (31) has elements (32) which ensures via control line (61-64) connected to the switches (21-24) a defined assignment of the controls to the data display unit (11).

5. The injection molding device as claimed in claim 1, characterized in that a printer (41) which has a memory unit (42) for the defined recording of data can be connected to the data display unit (11).

6. A method for the input and monitoring of setting data of an injection molding device corresponding to claim 1, characterized in that the display data are selected according to a defined selection criterion and activated and displayed on a single data display unit.

7. The method as claimed in claim 6, characterized in that the up-to-dateness of the operating data is used as a selection criterion for the displaying of the display data.

8. The method as claimed in claim 6, characterized in that the gradient of change of the operating data is used as a selection criterion for the displaying of the display data.
