Abstract
To produce sealing plates consisting of a plurality of sealing rings connected by radial webs by injection molding, wall-type guide elements are arranged obliquely to the direction of flow in the mold channel which is therefore initially largely constricted in the region of weld lines formed by the convergence of the fronts of the divided plastic melt streams, said guide elements being moved out of the mold channel during the further filling of same so that the strength is significantly improved in the region of the weld lines.
Claims19
A mold for production of sealing plates which comprises a plurality of sealing rings connected by radial webs, made of fiber-reinforced plastic by injection molding, wherein wall-type guide elements are arranged obliquely to a mold channel defined by the mold, which is thereby largely constricted in the region of weld lines formed by the convergence of the fronts of the divided plastic melt streams, these guide elements being movable between an initial position, in which 1-10% of the mold channel is cleared on both sides and 0-20% of the mold channel is cleared at the bottom, and a retraction position in which the end face of the guide element facing the bottom of the mold channel forms a seal with the surrounding mold channel wall or is elevated slightly above it.
