An injection device of a light metal injection molding machine of the disclosure includes: a melting cylinder that heats and melts a billet pushed along a cylinder hole and stores molten metal; an injection cylinder that injects, by an inserted plunger, the molten metal supplied by free fall due to the own weight from the melting cylinder through a communication path that can be opened and closed; and a molten metal pot in which a molten metal supply/discharge port connected to the melting cylinder is opened at a location in the melting cylinder that does not face an opening of the communication path on the melting cylinder side, and molten metal in an amount in excess of a capacity that can be stored in the melting cylinder is stored.

An injection piston can be driven along an axial direction of a heating barrel. The injection piston is connected to a screw and drives the screw along the axial direction. An injection hydraulic cylinder drives the injection piston in the axial direction by pressure of hydraulic oil. Inside of the injection hydraulic cylinder being partitioned into a first chamber and a second chamber. An oil discharge port is provided in the injection hydraulic cylinder and discharges the hydraulic oil from the second chamber. A first valve is inserted in a path for discharging the hydraulic oil discharged from the second chamber. A second valve opens when the pressure of the provided oil is higher than a first threshold value. The first valve closes when the pressure of the hydraulic oil supplied through the second valve is applied to the first valve.
