Patent number: 9931775Abstract: Wings are provided on mold components and linear ways are provided below these wings. A pad rides on each linear way below each wing. A force generator, such as a spring, is disposed between each wing and underlying pad. In this way the weight of the mold components is borne, at least in part, by the linear ways so that the weight on components that might otherwise sag is lessened.Type: GrantFiled: March 3, 2014Date of Patent: April 3, 2018Assignee: HUSKY INJECTION MOLDING SYSTEMS LTD.Inventors: Rainer Kintzinger, Christophe Halter, Pierre Glaesener

Patent number: 7591975Abstract: Disclosed are a molded article picker for a post-mold device and a related method for the use of the molded article picker for handling a molded article. The molded article picker includes a floating element being configured to be movable between an extended position and a retracted position and biased in the extended position. Furthermore, the molded article picker comprises a pressure structure extending through the floating element. The floating element is cooperable with the molded article to define a substantially enclosed volume including the pressure structure. The pressure structure is configured such that by evacuating the substantially enclosed volume the molded article is sealed to the floating element and the floating element is drawn into the retracted position, thereby transferring the molded article to the molded article picker.Type: GrantFiled: August 29, 2007Date of Patent: September 22, 2009Assignee: Husky Injection Molding Systems Ltd.Inventors: Rainer Kintzinger, Derek Robertson McCready, Luc Rommes, Arnold Mai
