An actuating device for adjusting at least one valve needle of an injection molding apparatus with a hot runner manifold that has disposed thereon at least one hot runner nozzle with at least one valve needle extending there-through which may control the melt flow through the hot runner nozzle. The actuating device has a support plate that is connected to the at least one valve needle and movable in a first direction relative to the hot runner manifold. The actuating device further includes a reciprocating device for moving the support plate in the first direction relative to the hot runner manifold, wherein the reciprocating device includes a slider mechanism and an actuation drive that is connected to a trigger device for generating a linear motion, wherein the slider mechanism has at least one thrust rod that is disposed in a second direction at an angle relative to the first direction.

A mold conveyance guide apparatus includes: a linear guide that is attached along a conveyance direction of a mold to a mold attachment surface of at least one of a fixed platen or a movable platen to which the mold is fixed; a slider that is movably attached to the linear guide; and a coupling arm that is swingably attached to the slider in a direction coming closer to or separating from the mold attachment surface and is coupled to the mold in an engageable and disengageable manner.

A method including a first step of performing clamping of a mold, injection and dwelling in an injection molding machine, a second step of performing a conveyance and a cooling of the mold outside of the machine, and a third step of performing a conveyance of the mold into the machine, an opening of the mold and an ejection of a molded part in the machine. The second step is performed for a first mold, the third step and the next first step are performed for a second mold. The first mold is conveyed by a first conveyance apparatus which is arranged on one lateral side of the machine. The second mold is conveyed by a second conveyance apparatus which is arranged on the other lateral side and is independently driven from the first conveyance apparatus.

Provided are a device and method for molding an FPC and a plastic part, which belongs to the field of FPC processing technology. The method for molding an FPC and a plastic part includes preprocessing a preform and connecting an FPC to the outer cylindrical surface of the preform; and forming a coating on the outer cylindrical surface of the preform by using the device for molding an FPC and a plastic part.

A mold assembly includes a services block and a cavity plate defining at least a portion of a molding cavity. A quick connection mechanism can connect and disconnect the plate and the services block. The cavity plate may include a base block and a mold cavity block. A mold assembly may include two opposed combinations of such a service block and a cavity plate each mounted to an opposed platen. The base block may include a quick connection device operable connect with and disconnect from a quick connection device on the services block. A services channel in the cavity plate may connect with and disconnect from a service channel in the services block with a quick connection mechanism. A molding system may include a plurality of such cavity plates, each operable to connect with and disconnect from the same services block.

In a mold device, a side portion of a second mold forming a second cavity portion is deformed outward in a second direction by injection pressure during injection molding, and an insert is displaced along with the deformation of the side portion. A drive portion moves the insert in a drive direction intersecting the first direction and the second direction so as to be able to advance and retract between a molding position at which the molded article can be molded and a retracted position at which the molded article can be released. The insert is swingably attached to the drive portion.

A molded fluid coupler defines a continuous external surface and an internal bore extending from a proximal end to a distal end. The molded fluid coupler has an external conduit barb positioned adjacent the proximal end, and a piston positioned adjacent the distal end. The molded fluid coupler also has a proximal rib positioned distally of the conduit barb and a distal rib distally spaced from the proximal rib to define an annular gap positioned between the proximal rib and the distal rib. The piston extends distally of the distal rib and defines an external sealing surface lacking a parting line. In some embodiments, an external surface extending between the proximal end and the barb lacks a parting line.

A mold for manufacturing a faucet body is disclosed, including: a lower mold base; and an upper mold base forming a mold cavity. A first and second core-pulling mechanisms are slidably arranged at two ends of the lower mold base respectively, the first core-pulling mechanism is provided with a first mold core set including a valve seat mounting groove mold core, a water outlet channel mold core and a water inlet channel mold core. The valve seat mounting groove mold core and the water outlet channel mold core are fixedly arranged on one side of the first core-pulling mechanism facing the mold cavity, the water inlet channel mold core is connected with a rotating block, the other end of the rotating block is rotatably arranged on the first core-pulling mechanism. The second core-pulling mechanism is provided with a second mold core set.

An instrument panel unit (2) includes an instrument panel (3) and a decorative sheet (4). The instrument panel (3) includes a sticking portion (3a) and an exposed portion (3b). A plurality of insertion grooves 3c and insertion holes 3d are formed alternately at an end on a rear side of the sticking portion (3a), into which bent pieces (4a) formed at a rear end of the decorative sheet (4) are inserted. A groove front-surface (3g) forming the insertion groove (3c) of the instrument panel (3) is formed in a tapered shape such that a width between the groove front-surface and an opposing groove rear-surface (3h) gradually increases upwardly. The bent piece (4a) is formed to be thinner than the groove width at the upper part serving as the entrance part of the insertion groove (3c) and to be thicker than the groove width of a groove bottom-surface (3i).
