An injection molding system including an injection nozzle that injects resin into a mold and a conveying device that conveys the injection nozzle between a first position where the injection nozzle injects resin into a first mold and a second position where the injection nozzle injects resin into a second mold.

In the present invention, constructed is a highly reliable system that does not allow unforeseen conditions to occur in the remote diagnosis of a clamp device. All combinations of status of a state detection switch mounted on a clamp device are anticipated in advance by a recursive method, and the states are defined with no omissions. A control unit 9 includes: a main body memory 9c that stores the ON/OFF state of a state switch together with the status of an injection molding machine main body, the clamp status and time information; and a main body communication unit 9d which is capable of short-range wireless communication. A message diagnosing a failure is stored in a smartphone 12 for all combinations of the ON/OFF state of the state detection switch for each of the following cases: whether in mold replacement mode or not; and whether a clamp device is in a clamped state or an unclamped state, or in a state other than the forgoing. The history of the ON/OFF state of the state detection switch with respect to the status of the main body and the clamp status is read from the main body memory 9c by wireless communication, and a corresponding message is displayed.

An injection molding tool for producing a molded part and a corresponding method are disclosed. The injection mold tool comprises a first tool mold half and a second tool mold half, which together with a first slider and at least one second slider define a free space for the molded part to be produced. 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.

A rotary core includes an undercut portion molding section for molding an undercut portion in a resin-molded article, and a seal portion abutting on a mold main body. In a side view viewed from a direction orthogonal to the direction in which a shaft member serving as the rotation center of the rotary core extends, a first imaginary line extending along the inner edge of the seal portion, and a second imaginary line extending from the rotation center to the first imaginary line and orthogonal to the first imaginary line are drawn. The seal portion includes a portion that is located on a lower side of the second imaginary line and is bent inward in the width direction as compared with a portion of the seal portion that is located on an upper side of the second imaginary line.

A safety apparatus includes a safety bar that is capable of moving in a mold clamping direction and a mold opening direction, in conjunction with a moving platen provided with a movable mold, and a latch that contacts the safety bar when a door, which is provided in a cover of an injection molding device, is open, wherein the latch includes a notch in a surface thereof on the mold-opening-direction side.

An operation abnormality detection method for detecting an operation abnormality in a molding device having a movable part includes: acquiring a prescribed measured value relating to operation of the movable part and calculating, as statistical information, an average value of prescribed information values based on the prescribed measured values: calculating a first threshold and a second threshold; acquiring a current measured value and comparing a current information value based on the current measured value with the greater of the first threshold and the second threshold; and issuing a warning if the current information value at least exceeds the greater of the first threshold and the second threshold.

A method for moving a movable mold mounting plate of a molding machine, wherein the movable mold mounting plate is movable relative to a stationary mold mounting plate and the mold mounting plates are kinematically connected to each other and wherein a drive mechanism for moving the movable mold mounting plate is provided, wherein molding tool parts arranged on the mold mounting plates are brought into abutment to each other in a closed state and wherein a temporally changeable tilting movement of the mold mounting plates relative to each other occurs by the movement of the movable mold mounting plate, wherein the movable mold mounting plate is moved by the drive mechanism and/or the stationary mold mounting plate is moved by an injection device in such a way that when reaching a predeterminable distance of the mold mounting plates relative to each other a parameter representing the tilting movement of the mold mounting plates relative to each other is less than or equal to a presettable value, preferably equal to zero.
