In an injection apparatus, a movable unit includes a ball screw including a moving block and a screw shaft. The moving block moves in a predetermined direction and is joined to an injection plunger. The screw shaft rotates to move the moving block. The screw shaft and the injection plunger are disposed side by side in a direction orthogonal to the predetermined direction. A fixing unit includes a first portion for holding a rear end part of the screw shaft, a second portion for holding a front end part of the screw shaft, and a third portion for holding the injection cylinder. The moving block is provided between the first portion and the second portion. The third portion is provided to be pressed by the injection cylinder when the injection plunger presses the resin.

A machine for injecting thermoplastic material into mould includes a frame, a bracket, a melt chamber supported by the bracket, a piston designed to plunge into the melt chamber per an injection axis through an upper opening and push a molten material contained in the chamber to the mould. The machine includes a head along which the piston slides, the head also having a hopper which contains the non-melted thermoplastic material, the head being mobile perpendicularly to the injection axis between an injection position, in which the piston is aligned with the melt chamber, and the hopper is blocked off by the bracket, and a feed position, in which the hopper is aligned with the melt chamber to feed it with thermoplastic material, and the movement of the piston is limited by the bracket.

A shaping machine includes a stationary first mold mounting plate, a second mold mounting plate movable with respect to the first mold mounting plate, a tubular snorkel fixedly secured to the second mold mounting plate, and an injection unit for plasticizing and injecting a molding material. An abutment is designed so that, in the opened condition of the closing unit, the injection unit can be braced against the abutment, and so that, in a closed condition of the closing unit, the injection unit is freed from the abutment by the force action of the snorkel on the injection unit.

Provided is a blow molding machine including an injection molding unit and a blow molding unit, wherein the injection molding unit includes a preform mold and an injection device configured to supply resin to the preform mold, wherein the injection device is fixed to a support plate, and wherein the support plate includes a position adjustment mechanism capable of adjusting a position of the injection device in an upper and lower direction with respect to the preform mold.

A plasticizing unit is provided for an injection unit of an injection moulding machine with a support element arranged beneath the cylinder and connected therewith. To simplify adjusting of the nozzle centre, a fixing element surrounds the end of the support element facing away from the cylinder such that a distance is present between the fixing element and the support element. Several adjusting elements are provided, to produce a force-fitting and/or form-fitting connection between the fixing element and the support element to adjust the position of the support element relative to the fixing element in a plane orthogonally to the cylinder axis. The plasticizing unit can be clamped in and out with its fixing element in a clamping- and positioning system connected with the machine bed. On changeover of the plasticizing unit, an adjusting of the nozzle centre, which has been carried out once, is retained.

A nasal impression assembly for use in prosthodontics and otolaryngology, wherein the assembly includes detachable components specifically designed for recording precise nasal impressions. The detachable components may include plurality of nasal cones, a pair of injection syringes, and an extra nasal mesh splint, assembled on a horizontal bar. Further a method is provided for measuring/imprinting the impression, by using the assembly, wherein an impression material is brought in contact with extra-nasal and/or intra-nasal structure to imprint its size and/or shape.

In an injection molding machine including a base, a pivot pin provided on the base, and an injection unit supported by the pivot pin so as to be pivotable relative to the base in a pivoting direction, the injection molding machine is equipped with a rod-shaped member configured to cause the injection unit to pivot in the pivoting direction by pushing the injection unit, and a first support member provided on the base and configured to be screw-engaged with the rod-shaped member.

An injection molding system comprising: a first selected valve, one or more downstream valves, delivering a fluid to a mold cavity, at least one fluid property sensor, each valve associated with a position sensor that detects opening of a gate at an actual open gate time to the controller, the controller automatically adjusting time of instruction to open the gates on a subsequent injection cycle by an adjustment time equal to any delay in time between a predetermined open gate target time and an actual open gate time, wherein the system forms a first one or more parts or objects, the user inspecting or measuring the first one or more parts or objects and manually adjusts the predetermined open gate target time.

In an injection molding machine, which includes an injection unit, a base that supports the injection unit, and a swivel shaft provided on the injection unit, the injection molding machine includes a driven rotating member provided on the swivel shaft and which rotates integrally with the swivel shaft, and an input unit for inputting a rotational force to the driven rotating member.

Provided are a mold for manufacturing a percutaneous absorption sheet that can be detected from an image, and an apparatus and a method for manufacturing a percutaneous absorption sheet having a needle-like protrusion using the mold. The mold is a mold for manufacturing a percutaneous absorption sheet in which a plurality of needle-like recessed portions are disposed, and the problem is solved by a mold for manufacturing a percutaneous absorption sheet in which the mold has a gray color in which a brightness value in a case where a brightness in an HSL (Hue Saturation Lightness) color space is represented in 256 levels is in a range of 30 or more and 200 or less.
