A undercut processing mechanism includes: a sliding piece having a molding core for molding an undercut portion; a holder having a guide for guiding the sliding piece so that a molding core is detached from the undercut portion; and a retaining piece slidably accommodated in the holder and slidably engaged with the sliding piece. One of the holders and the retaining piece can advance/retract relative to the other thereof. The retaining piece has a first engagement element and a second engagement element to be engaged with the sliding piece. The sliding piece is guided via the first engagement element and the second engagement element so that the molding core is detached from the undercut portion and moves away from the molded product.

A window molding apparatus includes an upper mold, a lower mold under the upper mold, and a side mold under the upper mold and adjacent to at least one side of the lower mold. The upper mold includes a first surface, the lower mold includes a second surface having a portion facing the first surface, and the side mold includes a third surface. The first surface includes a first flat surface and a first bent surface extending from the first flat surface, the second surface includes a second flat surface facing the first flat surface and a second bent surface extending from the second flat surface, and the third surface includes a third bent surface contacting one end of the first bent surface and facing the second bent surface.

Provided is an injection mold and a method of injection molding having a molding core system. The molding core system including a plurality of co-operable components manipulable between a first molding position at which the core system is fully deployed and a second position in which the core system is configured to axially retract and radially contract into a second drawing position, the outer shape of said core system being substantially complementary to the inner shape of the molded article.
