An insert molding apparatus includes: a lower mold including a seating part on which an insert member including a through-hole is seated; an upper mold mounted on the lower mold to receive the insert member seated on the seating part; and a first fixing part including a first head provided in the lower mold and inserted into the through-hole of the insert member when the insert member is seated, and a first drive unit that moves the first head. The first drive unit is moved to adjust a length by which the first head is inserted into the through-hole.

A two-color molding die includes: a fixed primary die; a fixed secondary die; and a movable die. The fixed primary die includes a first concave portion. The movable die includes a second concave portion facing the first concave portion, and a core pin that protrudes from a base end surface of the second concave portion toward a base end surface of the first concave portion to form a tubular primary molding cavity between the core pin and the first concave portion and the second concave portion. The fixed secondary die includes a third concave portion configured to form a concave secondary molding cavity.

An assembling apparatus that has a mold in which a second unit opposes a first unit and that is configured to assemble an assembled product from a plurality of parts. The first unit includes first, second, and third movable portions, which comprise, respectively, a plurality of first forming portions, a plurality of second forming portions, and a plurality of third forming. The second unit comprises a fourth movable portion, a fourth forming portion, a fifth forming portion, a sixth forming portion, and a plurality of assembling portions. The fourth movable portion is configured to move so as to switch at least one assembling portion opposed to at least one first forming portion, at least one other assembling portion opposed to the at least one second forming portion, and at least one remaining assembling portion opposed to at least one third forming portion.

An injection mold for producing a double walled drinking vessel includes first and second mold portions. The first mold portion forms a first and second cavities corresponding to the outer shape of the outer container and the outer shape of the inner container, respectively. The first and second cavities are located concentrically with respect to a central axis. An index plate is rotatable and axially movable along the central axis relative to the first mold portion. The index plate includes a first core and a second core. The first cavity has a first cavity injection gate for injecting mold material into the first cavity for forming the outer container. The second cavity has a second cavity injection gate for injecting mold material into the second cavity for forming the inner container. The first cavity has a further injection gate for injecting joint material for joining the outer and inner containers.

An index plate molding device configured to produce a multi-component part including an injection mold having an injection parting surface, and an ejection mold having an ejection parting surface in selective contact with the injection parting surface to form an ejection parting line therebetween. The index plate molding device also includes an index plate movable relative to the injection mold and the ejection mold, where the index plate includes an index parting surface in selective contact with the injection parting surface to form an index parting line therebetween, and where the index plate is shaped such that the outer surface of the first component of the multi-component part is available for overmolding on both sides of the index parting line when the first component is coupled to the index plate.

An injection molding apparatus includes: a first fixed mold attachment and detachment unit configured to attach and detach a first fixed mold; a second fixed mold attachment and detachment unit configured to attach and detach a second fixed mold; a first movable mold attachment and detachment unit configured to attach and detach a first movable mold; a first injection unit configured to inject a first molding material through a first gate opening of the first fixed mold; a second injection unit configured to inject a second molding material through a second gate opening of the second fixed mold; and a position changing unit configured to change a position of the first movable mold attachment and detachment unit such that the first movable mold is located at a position facing the first fixed mold or the second fixed mold.
