INJECTION APPARATUS

An injection piston drives a screw. An injection hydraulic cylinder drives the injection piston and is partitioned into first and second chambers. A first oil discharge port is disposed in the injection hydraulic cylinder to be blocked by a piston part when the piston part of the injection piston advances to a pressure-holding switching position, and discharges hydraulic oil from the second chamber. A second oil discharge port is disposed in the injection hydraulic cylinder to be capable of discharging hydraulic oil from the second chamber regardless of the position of the injection piston. The injection piston has first and second members. The joint of the first and second members is disposed at a position separated from an end of the piston part on a side of the second chamber by a predetermined distance.

METHOD FOR MANUFACTURING AN OPTICAL LENS
20220126491 · 2022-04-28 ·

A method for manufacturing an optical lens includes pressing a fluid-state optical material by using a solid-state optical material to inject the fluid-state optical material molten from the solid-state optical material into a cavity. The solid-state optical material is molten only at the part adjacent to the cavity to form the fluid-state optical material, which facilitates transport of the optical material and minimizes residual waste. The pressing force applied to the solid-state optical material can be controlled to hence control the moving rate of the solid-state optical material, thereby precisely controlling the injection volume and injection rate of the fluid-state optical material.

PLASTICATING AND INJECTION MOLDING SYSTEM
20230241822 · 2023-08-03 ·

An injection molding apparatus that employs a stationary plasticating screw relative to feed port, non-reciprocal helical plasticating screw housed within an inner barrel that is coupled to a plunger head assembly, drive housing, motor and injection cylinders that is housed within an outer barrel/pressure vessel that conveys, melts, homogenizes and pumps polymeric plastic material precisely and efficiently along One axis. The helical plasticating screw is fixed in relative position within the inner barrel so that the material feed opening of the inner barrel and helical plasticating screw are aligned to accept pellets, powder or liquid of polymetric substance. The inner barrel is fixed to a plunger head assembly on the distal end that is housed within a pressure vessel with close proximity between the outside diameter of the plunger head and the inside diameter of said pressure vessel that upon screw rotation transfers polymetric material through the center passageway of said plunger head opening a normally closed one-way shut-off mechanism into said pressure vessel precisely for future displacement of polymeric mass into a mold or other. The apparatus and process of feeding, melting and injecting Polymeric material all occurs on one axis.
