A PISTON FOR COLD-CHAMBER INJECTION MACHINES comprising a support (2) and an external body (3) with a sealing ring (5), joined by a bayonet lock ring (6) independent of the external body (3) and divided into two parts (6a) fitted onto a groove (21) in the support (2) and connected by long screws (7) inserted into threaded holes (61). The piston preferably includes a spring bush (4) as a part that adjusts to the container, independent of the external body (3) and of the bayonet lock ring (6), under which a conical spring ring (8) is included which exerts pressure on the two parts that form the bush (4), tending to expand the same. The piston also includes alternating transverse grooves (81) along the edges thereof for receiving conical metal tips (9) inserted through holes (63) in the bayonet lock ring (6).

A cylindrical drum is driven for rotation about its axis by a drive mechanism. A braking mechanism selectively applies braking forces to the drum to impede or brake its rotational movement. A first movement sensor senses movement of the drive mechanism while a second movement sensor senses movement of the drum. An electronic comparator circuit compares these sensed movements and generates a control signal when the drive mechanism movement and drum movement are not in synchronism. In response to such loss of synchronism, a control mechanism causes the braking mechanism to apply braking forces.

Disclosed are embodiments of a temperature regulated vessel and a fluid delivery device, and methods of use thereof. The vessel can be used in an injection molding apparatus and include one or more temperature regulating lines configured to flow a fluid or liquid within the body (e.g., to heat a cold device). The fluid delivery device is mounted in the apparatus and has a collar with an opening extending therethrough to sealingly mate with the vessel. A delivery channel is provided within the collar for directing an input flow of fluid into the vessel. An exit channel can also be provided within the collar for directing an output flow of the fluid from the vessel.

A die casting machine includes a stationary die half, an ejector holder block, and die core pieces that extend through the ejector holder block, defining a die cavity when closed. An ejector box backstops the closed ejector holder block and die core pieces. Melt is injected into the die cavity. After a first dwell time, the ejector box is retracted away from the ejector holder block while a closing force is simultaneously applied to maintain the ejector holder block closed on the stationary die half, and the die core pieces are retracted out of the die cavity. After a second dwell time, the melt completely freezes and the ejector block is separated from the stationary die half, opening the die cavity from which the resulting die cast block can be retrieved.
