  • Patent number: 5433912
    Abstract: A process for injection molding arcuately-shaped hollow articles is disclosed. The process includes the steps of positioning a stack mold into an injection molding machine. The stack mold has first, second and third mold blocks with the first mold block positioned between the second and third mold blocks. Each of the mold blocks has a plurality of cavities formed therein. The cavities formed in the first mold block are designed to mate with the cavities formed in the second and third mold blocks when the stack mold is closed to form a plurality of arcuately-shaped cavities. The stack mold further contains a pair of slide carriers movably connected to each of the second and third mold blocks and a plurality of inner cores secured to each of the slide carriers. The stack mold is closed by first moving both of the pairs of slide carriers such that each of the inner cores is positioned within one of the arcuately-shaped cavities to form a hollow interior in each of the molded articles.
