Abstract: Injection molding apparatus for discontinuous fabrication of molded bodies consisting of a plurality of layers with a foaming core and an outer skin of non-foaming thermoplastic material, the apparatus consisting of an injection head connected to two extruders and equipped with a centrally-located jet surrounded by a ring jet.
Abstract: The invention is concerned with an injection molding apparatus in which thermoplastic material mixed with an expanding agent is kept in a plastic state below the reaction temperature of the agent and is passed generally continuously through an inter-connecting passage to a transfer cylinder; by flowing through the passage, the mass is heated above the reaction temperature and the built-up pressure prevents foaming of the thermoplastic until it is injected into a mold.
