Abstract: A pair of primary semi-hollow bodies formed by primary injection molding are united together by the molten resin injected for secondary injection molding to fill a joining space defined about the butt ends of the primary semi-hollow bodies having their open ends butted against each other. The molten resin for secondary molding fills the space between the butt ends, or the notch portion, too. Alternatively, the molten resin is compressed after filling the joining space and the space between the butt ends.

Abstract: A method for manufacturing a synthetic resin hollow member wherein using a die slide injection molding machine comprising a stationary die having a series of molding portions formed lengthwise in male-female-female-male sequence, and a movable die having a series of molding portions formed lengthwise in female-male-female sequence, the manufacturing method comprising the following steps: a die clamping step; an injection step for molding two half bodies for the present cycle in a male/female combination of molding portions and joining two half bodies from preceding cycle in a combination of female molding portions; a removal step for opening the dies and removing the finished hollow member; a die sliding step for sliding the dies lengthwise a specific distance relative to each other in a reverse direction of that in the previous cycle; these steps are then repeated to manufacture one hollow member with each die sliding step.

Abstract: A plurality of semi-molded products (H, J, K) are formed in a slide mold (20) and slide cores (30, 30′) simultaneously in the step of primary molding. Then, the slide cores (30, 30′) are opened in the condition that the semi-molded products (H, J, K) remain in the slide mold (20) and the slide cores (30, 30′) respectively. Then, the slide mold (20) and the slide cores (30, 30′) are slid so that the semi-molded products (H, J, K) are collected into a predetermined position. Then, a molten resin is injected into joint portions of the semi-molded products (H, J, K) collected and clamped, so that the plurality of semi-molded products (H, J, K) are integrated with one another in the slide mold (20) and the slide cores (30, 30′) in the step of secondary molding to thereby obtain a molded product (S).

Abstract: Method and apparatus for manufacturing a synthetic resin-made hollow member incorporating an intermediate element are provided which enable operations of molding half bodies, abutting and joining the half bodies together, and molding an intermediate element in a series of steps, and which eliminate the necessity of such a manual work as may otherwise be required in incorporating the intermediate element into the half bodies. A pair of rotary injection molding dies are used which can be opened and closed relative to each other and are rotatable relative to each other over an angle of 60° for each turn, each die having a half body molding section including one male molding portion and two female molding portions in the direction of rotation for each rotational run over an angle of 120°, each die also having an intermediate element molding portion provided between specified half body molding portions in the direction of each rotational run over an angle of 120°.

Abstract: The present invention provides a channel housing comprising curving channels whereby complex and varied channels can be compactly contained.Plural curving channels that must be connected to plural valves, for example, are formed by partitioning walls forming curving channels inside a pair of symmetrical housing halves, which are then bonded together to form the complex channel system.The housing halves may be joined by welding or adhesive bonding. To improve the bonding strength, a pair of opposing channel members is provided along the length of the contacting members that are welded or bonded. The cavity formed by the opposing channel members D, D is then filled with an adhesive resin M to integrate the two halves.

Abstract: An injection mold device comprises a first matrix attached to a movable platen and a second matrix attached to a fixed platen. A multiplicity of first cavity units are attached to the first matrix. A multiplicity of second cavity units are provided for selective removable attachment to the first matrix during a mold-clamping state and to the second matrix during a mold-opening state. A self-holding device is associated with the first matrix for maintaining a clamping force between the first cavity units and the second cavity units during the mold-clamping state. A mold-opening device is associated with the second matrix for removably attaching the second cavity units to the first matrix in the mold-clamping state and for removing the second cavity units from the first matrix in the mold-opening state.

Abstract: A system for assembling molded products wherein two or more products molded by an injection machine are assembled with each other with a reduced space required for taking them out from the injection molding machine and then assembling them together while a cycle time for each injection molding operation is shortened. After completion of the upper and lower shell halves, the shell halves molded in the die are dropped and assembled along two or more grooves by an ejection operation of molding machine. After that, the assembled products are conveyed to the outside by driving a conveying unit arranged in a bed.

Abstract: An injection molding machine for molding hollow plastic products which includes a pair of molds wherein one of the molds is supported rotatably about the center axis thereof a frame of the machine and each of the molds has at least one set having one male die and two female dies arranged on each product plane at an equal distance from an equal angular pitch about the center axis thereof. The rotatable mold is rotated reciprocally between first and second angular positions at each of which a primary molding of a pair of half products and a secondary molding of a complete product are performed simultaneously.
