An ejector plate movement detector is provided that can be mounted, without complicatedly machining a mold tool and occupying an installation place, and can detect movement of an ejector plate, with damages of parts suppressed to a necessary minimum. The detector 21A comprises a rod-like pin 22; a pressure detector 23 integrally attached on one end of the pin 22 and mounted on the ejector plate 12, for detecting the pressure applied via the pin 22 when the ejector plate 12 is moved forward and backward; a biasing member 24 for always biasing the ejector plate 12 to its original position with respect to the pin 22; and a holder 25 having one end fixedly mounted to the receiving plate 6, for housing said biasing means 24 and movably holding the pin against the biasing means 24. Whether or not the ejector plate 12 is normally moved is checked by monitoring waveforms of output values from the pressure sensor 27 before and after the movement of the ejector plate 12 at the ejection of a molded piece.
An ejector plate movement detector that detects whether or not an ejector plate has been normally moved, said ejector plate movement detector being built in a molding metal tool, said molding metal tool including a first mold plate having a cavity and a second mold plate which has a core and is relatively movable to said first mold plate, said first mold plate and said first mold plate being combined together, said molding metal tool forming a molded piece by filling a space between said cavity and said core with a resin material, said ejector plate having an ejector pin pushing said molded piece out of said first and second mold plates using the point thereof when said first mold plate and said second mold plate are relatively separated from each other, said ejector plate movement detector comprising:
