  • Publication number: 20240123663
    Abstract: In an injection device according to an embodiment, each of a plurality of outer peripheral protrusions of a screw is formed with an outer peripheral protrusion inclined surface, and each of a plurality of inner peripheral protrusions of a through-hole of a bush is formed with an inner peripheral protrusion inclined surface. The injection device advances the bush until a linear-motion torque exceeds a linear-motion torque threshold, and, if a rotation torque exceeds a rotation torque threshold before the linear-motion torque exceeds the linear-motion torque threshold, ends control processing when the linear-motion torque exceeds the linear-motion torque threshold.
