A controller for an injection molding system is in communication with a melt flow control unit, a gas assist control unit, and a gas counter pressure control unit. The controller can effect real-time adjustments to gas assist pressure and/or gas counter pressure as a function of melt pressure or flow front position.

An improved injection mold for forming an injection molded component. The injection mold includes a main cavity block and a main core block that are moveable with respect to one another. The main cavity block has a cavity block mating face that includes a first mold surface and the main core block has a core block mating face that includes a second mold surface. A plurality of induction heating coils extend within the main cavity block and a plurality of gas inlet channels extend through the main core block. The second mold surface includes a plurality ridges that cooperatively form a continuous gas flow path that is disposed in fluid communication with the plurality of as inlet channels. The continuous gas flow path follows a serpentine shape to provide even and uninterrupted gas flow across the second mold surface.

[Problems] The objective of present invention is to provide the mold, injection molding system and method capable of limiting the outflow of pressurized fluid injected into a mold cavity.

[Solution] A mold device and a molding device comprising: a shaft body 27 provided at least on one mold among a first mold 205 and a second mold 206 that form a molding space 200, the shaft body being used for pushing out a molded article formed from a resin injected into the molding space 200; a ring-shaped elastic member for supporting the shaft body 27 in which an opening formed along the circumferential direction is oriented toward the said molding space; and an injection portion provided on at least one mold among the first mold 205 and the second mold 206, the injection portion being used for injecting a pressurized fluid into the molding space 200.

The invention relates to a component (1) comprising a planar decorative element (4) with a front side (5) and a rear side (6). A cover layer (9, 10) is arranged on each of at least two regions of the front side (5) of the planar decorative element (4), these at least two cover layers (9, 10) being spaced completely apart from one another, and said at least two cover layers (9, 10) and at least one region (12, 14) of the front side (5) of the planar decorative element (4) together forming a visible side (2) of the component (1).

A resin molding method for forming a resin molding (24) on a surface of a panel (1) includes: a molding die installation step of installing a molding die (3) formed of an elastic body on the panel (1) in such a manner as to form a cavity (7) by a molding face (10) thereof; a resistance increasing step of increasing resistance to pressure applied from the cavity (7) side with respect to the molding face (10); a resin injection step of injecting resin into the cavity (7); and a resin curing step of curing the injected resin.

A method of manufacturing a resin sealing module, which includes an injection step of injecting an uncured curable liquid resin into a module case and a positioning step of positioning the mold member, is provided. In the injection step, a substrate with electronic components is immersed into the curable liquid resin. In the positioning step, the mold member is positioned so that inside space of the first partition wall faces a second region. In the positioning step, at least a protruding end portion of the first partition wall is immersed into the curable liquid resin while a gas layer is held in the inside space. Thereby, a partial region of an upper surface of the curable liquid resin is depressed by the gas layer, so that this region is positioned lower in level than other regions.

A compressed air is ejected from air ejector ports (14) to between a mold surface defining cavity (12) of mold (7) and a surface of a hot melt resin layer after starting to fill or inject the hot melt resin material into cavity (12) and before a temperature of the hot melt resin material becomes equal to or lower than a softening point thereof. Recesses (Q) are formed by positively generating a sink mark on a surface of edge protector (6) by ejection of the compressed air, and at the same time, gap (G) is formed between the surface of edge protector (6) and the mold surface. As a result, when bead-shaped edge protector (6) is integrally formed in long-side heat-fused portions (5c) of laminated-film exterior package case (5) by using a thermoplastic hot melt resin material, mold releasability of the molded edge protector from the mold can be enhanced.

A non-pneumatic wheel having a thermoplastic wheel hub includes a center hub for attachment to a wheel bearing of a vehicle. The center hub has a central shaft aperture extending axially therethough and a plurality of lug apertures spaced radially from and circumferentially about the central shaft aperture. The thermoplastic wheel hub also includes a plurality of ribs extending radially outwardly from the center hub. The thermoplastic wheel hub further includes a cylindrical tire mount connected to the ribs and extending axially in substantially a cylinder for mounting a non-pneumatic tire thereon.

A method of manufacturing a molded product with controlled density may include preparing an upper layer outer sheath and a lower layer outer sheath of the molded product, manufacturing and preparing a filling material which forms a filling layer between the upper layer outer sheath and the lower layer outer sheath, positioning the lower layer outer sheath material in an internal space of a lower mold, disposing a temporary template on an upper portion of the lower mold to seal the internal space, and then injecting the filling material between the lower layer outer sheath material and the temporary template, removing the temporary template, and then positioning the upper layer outer sheath material on the injected filling material of the lower mold, and integrating the upper layer outer sheath material, the filling material, and the lower layer outer sheath material by heating and compression.

[Problem] The present invention relates to a manufacturing method for obtaining a molded article having an expanded layer in the molded article, wherein an expanding agent and device used to manufacture a resin having expansion properties, and a means for increasing expansion ratio are provided.

[Solution] In the present invention, an expanding agent placed in a heating cylinder of a molding machine is configured as a liquid, the volume of the expanding agent is controlled, and the expanding agent is injected into a molten resin in the heating cylinder of the molding machine. The volume of the injected expanding agent can thereby be accurately measured each time. When a low-boiling liquid such as water, an alcohol, or an ether is used as the injected expanding agent, all of the liquid is vaporized by the temperature of the heating cylinder of the molding machine, and no residue thereof is therefore left in the molded article. When sodium bicarbonate water is used as the injected expanding agent, solvent water vaporizes and water vapor also becomes expandable gas, which is less expensive than using sodium bicarbonate as the expanding agent for a master batch using the resin that is to be molded.
