Abstract
An injection molding machine includes a sub injection device configured to inject molten resin into a mold of a clamping device along a direction perpendicular to an opening/closing direction of the mold, a sub machine base configured to support the sub injection device, and a coupling unit provided on a main machine base configured to support a main injection device and the clamping device and couple the main machine base and the sub machine base together. The coupling unit includes a base provided on the main machine base, two fixed blocks fixed to the base, a guide bar bridged in parallel to the opening/closing direction of the mold by the two fixed blocks, and a movable block slidably fitted onto the guide bar. The movable block is connected to the sub machine base.
Claims15
An injection molding machine comprising:
- a clamping device including a mold and configured to produce a clamping force by opening and closing the mold;
- an injection device configured to inject molten resin into the mold along an opening/closing direction of the mold;
- and
- a machine base configured to support the clamping device and the injection device, wherein:
- the injection molding machine further comprises:
- a sub injection device configured to inject molten resin into the mold along a direction perpendicular to the opening/closing direction of the mold;
- a sub machine base configured to support the sub injection device;
- and
- a coupling unit provided on the machine base and configured to couple the machine base and the sub machine base together;
- wherein the coupling unit includes:
- a base provided on the machine base;
- two fixed blocks fixed to the base;
- a guide bar supported by and bridged between the two fixed blocks in parallel to the opening/closing direction of the mold;
- and
- a movable block slidably fitted onto the guide bar,
- the movable block is connected to the sub machine base, and
- the sub injection device is supported on the sub machine base with a linear guide bearing portion interposed therebetween, the linear guide bearing portion being configured to enable movement of the sub injection device with respect to the sub machine base in the direction perpendicular to the opening/closing direction of the mold.
