A lever which is pretensioned with an elastic element is assigned to an end switch such that a movable and free end of the lever cooperates with the end switch due to a movement of the first slider.

An injection molding apparatus comprising: an injection molding machine, a heated manifold, a nozzle, the downstream end of the nozzle comprising an inner tubular member having a central flow channel and an outer circumferential surface and an outer tubular member having an inner tubular surface, the outer tubular member forming a seal surrounding the gate, the inner and outer tubular members being adapted to form a sealed circumferential gap, the inner tubular member including one or apertures extending radially through the inner tubular member to route flow radially from the fluid flow channel into the circumferential gap.

An injection mold for a high-aspect-ratio double-layer cylindrical plastic part and a molding method using the same. The injection mold includes a support base plate. A movable mold fixing frame and a movable mold base plate are arranged at the middle of a lower surface of the support base plate through positioning screws. A lower core mold is matchingly provided at a center of an upper surface of the support base plate, and is provided with a lower semicircular cavity for accommodating an outer die barrel. One side of the lower semicircular cavity is open, and the other side is provided with a first end wall which is provided with a lower semicircular notch for an inner die rod to pass through. An upper surface of the lower core mold is provided with a positioning protrusion, a lower feeding groove, and a remaining groove.

A microneedle including a projection having a through hole formed in the projection in a direction that the projection extends, and a tubular member having an end surface configured to support the projection when the end surface is pressed against a skin and a fluid is supplied through the through hole of the projection to the skin. The projection has a length H along the direction that the projection extends and the supporting surface has an area S such that a ratio of S/H is in a range of from 2.1 to 10.5.

The invention relates to a method for producing a hollow injection-moulded part, in particular a primary packaging means for medical applications by an injection moulding method, comprising the following method steps: a) Providing a first female die tool having a first mould cavity and a mould core formed as a male die tool; b) Introducing a mould core into the first mould cavity so that a first cavity is formed and the mould core extends beyond the mould cavity in the axial direction (X), thereby bringing the mould core into operative contact with the first female die tool and/or with a receiving member; c) Injecting a first plastic material into the first cavity so that a first portion of the injection-moulded part is formed; d) Transferring the first portion of the injection-moulded part to a second cavity; e) Injecting a second plastic material into the second cavity so that a second portion is formed directly on the first portion of the injection-moulded part.

A cavity plate assembly (400) for a preform mold (100), which includes a cavity plate (410) having an array of seats (412) and a corresponding array of cavity inserts (440) mounted to a front face (CVF) of the cavity plate (410) and in communication with a respective seat (412). Each cavity insert (440) includes a body (441) with a mounting face (441a) and a spigot (443) projecting from the mounting face (441a) and received in a respective seat (412) of the cavity plate (410) such that the mounting (441a) face abuts the front face (CVF) of the cavity plate (410). Each cavity insert (440) also includes a molding surface (448) along its length, at least two thirds of which extends beyond the cavity plate (410).

A single core pin assembly (10) having a first core pin (12) and at least one second core pin (14), the first core pin (12) having a first end (16), a second end (18) and a first core pin body (20). The first core pin body (20) connects the first end (16) and the second end (18). The second core pin (14) has a first end (24), a second end (26), and a second core pin body (28) connecting the second core pin first end (24) and the second core pin second end (26). The second core pin first end (24) is configured to join with the first core pin first end (16) to form a common downstream channel (30). The core pin (10) may be placed in a mold and surrounded by a flowable material (e.g. plastic) to form a work piece.

A preform mold (100) including a core plate (210), a cavity plate (410) and a plurality of mold stacks (MS) mounted between the core and cavity plates (210, 410). Each mold stack (MS) includes a core insert (250) mounted to the core plate (210), a cavity insert (440) mounted to the cavity plate (410) and split mold inserts (350) mounted between the core and cavity inserts (250, 440). The core inserts (250) are mounted to the core plate (210) by fasteners accessible from a rear side of the core plate (210). When the mold (100) is assembled, the core inserts (250) can be secured by the fasteners in a fixed condition in which they are immovable relative to the core plate (210). Also disclosed is a method of aligning the core inserts (250) by securing the core inserts (250) from a floating condition, in which they are able to slide relative to the core plate (210) along a sliding interface therebetween, to the fixed condition.

Disclosed is an injection molding method for a degradable intravascular stent with a flexible mold core structure. The injection molding method includes the following steps: Step 1, winding a metal rod with a flexible metal film, and applying an inward bending stress to the flexible metal film; Step 2, fixing the flexible metal film to the metal rod, and processing a complementary structure of the degradable intravascular stent on the surface of the flexible metal film; Step 3, performing injection molding processing: Step 4, ending the injection molding, removing the mating body of the flexible metal film and the metal rod and the degradable intravascular stent formed on the surface of the flexible metal film by injection molding, performing cooling, separating the metal rod from the flexible metal film, withdrawing the metal rod, and then removing the flexible metal film to obtain a formed degradable intravascular stent.
