The second material is a foaming material. And the counter pressure unit is adapted to provide gas into the second cavity to increase the pressure in the second cavity.

An injection molding apparatus includes a mold, an injection device, a porous structure, and a gas-driven unit. The mold has a mold cavity. The injection device is adapted to inject a material into the mold cavity so that the material is formed into a forming article. The porous structure is disposed on an inner surface of the mold cavity and corresponds to a non-appearance surface of the forming article. The gas-driven unit is connected to the mold and is adapted to drive a gas to flow into or flow out of the mold cavity through the porous structure. In addition, an injection molding method is also provided.

To further improve hollow resin molded article manufacturing technology, a hollow resin molded article manufacturing method includes: injecting a melted resin material into a cavity of a mold; injecting gas and liquid into the cavity in which the resin material has been injected, via an injector connected to the cavity, to form a hollow portion in the resin material in the cavity; and discharging the liquid in the cavity to outside of the cavity. The hollow portion forming step includes injecting the gas in a compressed state into the injector and then injecting the liquid pressurized at higher pressure than the gas. The injector is connected to a vertically lowermost end of the cavity. In the discharging step, the liquid is discharged via the injector.

A molding apparatus includes a mold comprising a stationary outer mold with a substantially tubular mold cavity, a moveable end mold with an end mold cavity alignable with the tubular mold cavity, and a stationary elongated mold core with a fluid channel therethrough, the mold core extending through the tubular cavity into the end mold cavity. A method of using the apparatus includes injecting a molding material at a material flow rate into the mold, moving the end mold at a speed in a linear direction from a first position to a second position, supplying a fluid at a fluid flow rate to the fluid channel, and varying at least one of the material flow rate, the end mold speed and the fluid flow rate as the end mold moves from the first position to the second position.

An additive injection system for use in injection molding machines to inject additive materials, such as fluids or powders, downstream of a nozzle of the injection molding machine. The additive injection unit has an additive tank to store or contain additive material and additive injectors that inject an additive material into an injection molding machine. A pump pumps the additive material from the tank through a common manifold connected to the additive injectors to be injected into the injection molding machine. A controller controls operation of the additive injection device and one or more sensors coupled to the additive injection device can provide feedback to the controller.

A method for producing a three-dimensionally shaped trim part of a motor vehicle, which has a visible side and a mounting side. A flowable material is injuected with pressure into a chamber of an injection molding tool, which has at least two mold shells, which, when assembled, form the chamber with a negative mold of the trim part, wherein at least one first of the mold shells forms the visible side and at least one second of the mold shells forms the mounting side of the trim part. The material is hardened in the chamber. A gas pressure is generated that acts in a planar manner between the second mold shell and the material during the hardening. The hardened material is removed as a trim part from the chamber of the injection molding tool.

The present invention provides a method for producing a durable semispherical shoe which can be prevented from being subjected to seizure even in a dry lubrication state in which there is no lubricating oil at a start time of an operation of a swash plate compressor, can be restrained from deteriorating in its lubricating property due to generated frictional heat, and can be restrained from deteriorating in its strength at a production time and an injection molding die. A semispherical shoe (4), for a swash plate compressor, to be produced by the production method has a base material (5), consisting of a hard material, which has a hollow part along a central axis thereof and a resin layer, consisting of a resin composition, which is formed on a surface of a planar part, disposed on a periphery of the base member, which is to be subjected to sliding contact with the swash plate and on a surface of a spherical part, disposed on the periphery thereof, which is to be subjected to sliding contact with a piston. A resin-filled portion (8) where the resin composition is filled and an empty portion where the resin composition is not filled are formed in the hollow part of the base material. The resin-filled portion (8) and the resin layer are formed by injecting and filling the resin composition into a portion to be formed as the resin-filled portion (8) with the base material (5) being disposed inside a cavity (22) of the injection molding die.

Multi-step method for producing a soundproof composite cover for internal combustion engines and product thus obtained, producing a cover made of thermoplastic material and insulating foam. The method uses a multiple mold with first and second cells, having male and female elements, the cells taking a first closed configuration and a second open configuration; the method including: closing the multiple mold and injecting the thermoplastic material through a channel from a hot chamber to the first cell; the thermoplastic material solidifies and the multiple mold is opened to move the solidified thermoplastic material from the first cell to the second cell; closing the multiple mold and, while a new injection occurs in the first cell, an insulating foam is injected into the second cell; and opening the double mold and, while the finished product is extracted from the second cell, a new transfer occurs from the first cell.
