An injection molding apparatus includes: a mold that includes a fixed mold and a movable mold facing the fixed mold, and that is formed with a cavity partitioned by the fixed mold and the movable mold and a runner communicating with the cavity; a mold clamping unit configured to move the movable mold with respect to the fixed mold; an injection unit configured to inject a molding material into the cavity through the runner; a cutting mechanism that is provided at the mold and that includes a cutter projecting to the runner; a drive unit that is provided on the mold and that is configured to drive the cutting mechanism; and a control unit configured to control the injection unit, the mold clamping unit, and the drive unit. The control unit controls the injection unit to inject the molding material into the cavity, and then controls the drive unit to cause the cutter to project to the runner, thereby cutting the molding material hardened in the runner.

An injection mold capable of planing and cutting gates in an inside thereof and a planing and cutting method are provided. The injection mold includes a blade fixed block arranged between a moving mold and a fixed mold. Blades arranged on the blade fixed block and configured for cutting off gate condensed-material. The mold includes ejectors for ejecting out the gate condensed material and the blade fixed block. Runners formed between the blade fixed block and the fixed mold. Cut holes for communicating runners and gates are formed in blades. Ejector holes for penetrating the ejectors are formed in portions of the blade fixed block which correspond to bottoms of runners. The blade fixed block moves relative to the moving mold in a mold opening direction. The moving mold is provided with a limiting mechanism for limiting the blade fixed block after injection molding parts are separated from a cavity.

An injection molding apparatus includes: a mold including a fixed mold and a movable mold facing the fixed mold, and that has a cavity defined by the fixed and movable molds and a runner communicating with the cavity; a mold clamping unit moves the movable mold with respect to the fixed mold; an injection unit injects a molding material into the cavity through the runner; a cutting mechanism at the mold includes a cutter projecting to the runner; a drive unit provided on the mold that drives the cutting mechanism; and a control unit controlling the injection unit, the mold clamping unit, and the drive unit. The control unit controls the injection unit to inject the molding material into the cavity, and then controls the drive unit to cause the cutter to project to the runner, thereby cutting the molding material hardened in the runner.

Provided is a method for manufacturing a fiber reinforced resin molded article capable of effectively increasing the strength of a fiber reinforced resin molded article, such as a high-pressure tank, and such a manufacturing device thereof. With use of a cutting core that is heated to a higher temperature than a mold, the curing of a portion of resin (thermosetting resin) to be cut in a runner is facilitated, and the portion of the resin to be cut in the runner is cut by the cutting core. The heating temperature of the cutting core is higher than the temperature of the mold and lower than the heating temperature in an aftercure step performed after removing the high-pressure tank from the mold.

A separating system for separating or separating items formed in a cavity of an injection molding system to separate them from material in the mold's runner, has a clamp plate for anchoring the separator system. The clamp plate secures a separating plate that supports a first separating pin, either directly or via an actuator. The first separating pin includes a base, a body having a cross-sectional portion, a neck having a cross-sectional portion, and a wedge-shaped tip. The system includes a support plate that supports a cavity plate, where the cavity plate has a first cavity and a first gate that fluidly couples the first cavity to a first runner channel. The separating first separating pin can be articulated to separate a molded material at a boundary between the first gate and the first cavity.

A metal mold forming method for an indoor illuminating lamp lens for a motor vehicle using a metal mold having a cavity having a form of the indoor illuminating lamp lens to be provided with an entire surface as a designed part, the indoor illuminating lamp lens having a prescribed thickness and a rib in a back surface thereof, comprises providing a gate to the rib and the thickness, injecting a molten resin into the cavity of the metal mold from the gate, separating the rib from the gate by inserting a cut pin having a same width as a width of the gate into the rib and the gate at a root of the gate after the step of injecting is completed, and taking out the lens from the metal mold by moving the cut pin backward after the step of separating is completed.

The mould comprises a cavity (7) into which material is injected through a casting (2); a separator (3) for opening or closing the communication between the cavity (7) and the casting (2), separating a part (1) from the casting (2) in its closed position; and a compartment (4) which is closed when the separator (3) opens the communication between the cavity (7) and the casting (2) and which is open when the separator (3) closes the cavity (7) and the casting (2), the movements of the separator (3) and the opening and closing of the compartment (4) being synchronized.

The method comprises closing the communication between the cavity (7) and the casting (2), separating the part (1) from the casting (2) and opening a compartment (4) for the material at the same time as the communication between the cavity (7) and the casting (2) is closed.
