Patent number: 9718227Abstract: The invention relates to a device and a method for producing plastic moldings from at least two different sub-elements (15; 16) that includes first and second mold halves (3) and a rotatable center block (6) with center and third mold halves (8; 17) interposed therebetween. The center and third mold halves define first and second parting planes with the first and second mold halves. First cavities are defined in the first parting plane, into which a first plastic component is introduced to produce preforms (12). When the first parting plane is opened, the performs (12) remain on the center mold halves (8) and are brought into the second parting plane when the center block (6) is rotated, in which second parting plane second cavities are at least partially defined by the preforms (12), into which a second plastic component is introduced and first sub-elements (15) are produced. Second sub-elements (16) are produced in the additional cavities.Type: GrantFiled: June 15, 2012Date of Patent: August 1, 2017Assignee: FOBOHA GmbHInventor: Rainer Armbruster

Patent number: 6638455Abstract: In a method for the internal cooling of a rotating object (4), liquid gas from at least one inlet channel (61) in a fixed object (5) is pressed into a ring-shaped groove (62) located between the fixed object (5) and the rotating object (4). From the ring-shaped groove (62) the liquid gas is pressed into at least one channel (63, 64.1, 64.2) in the rotating object (4) and brought to a part to be cooled (15). The liquid gas, upon contact with the part, evaporates and expands while absorbing heat, thereby cooling the part. The area surrounding the part to be cooled (15) may be designed as an expansion chamber (65). The method can be used to cool molded parts in injection molding machines with rotating molds (1), thereby achieving shorter cycle times.Type: GrantFiled: August 18, 2000Date of Patent: October 28, 2003Assignee: Foboha GmbHInventors: Werner Bodmer, Rainer Armbruster, Udo Bodmer

Patent number: 6558149Abstract: A holding device (1) for injection molding mold halves (61.2) or their holders contains two displacement units (2.1, 2.2), on each of which a rotation unit (4.1, 4.2) is attached. On each rotation unit (4.1, 4.2) there are holders (5.1, 5.2). Into the space (d) between the two holders (5.1, 5.2) a die holder designed as a prism-shaped rotating block can be inserted. The die holder in the holding device (1) can be displaced in one direction (z) and can be rotated around a displaceable axis (42.1, 42.2), which is vertical to the one direction (z). The displacement units (2.1, 2.2) can be displaced relative to one another to permit rapid and easy changing of injection molding molds (62.1).Type: GrantFiled: July 24, 2000Date of Patent: May 6, 2003Assignee: Foboha GmbHInventors: Werner Bodmer, Rainer Armbruster
