Abstract
A resin casting mold used for manufacturing a casting product including a cured resin produced by curing a fluid resin filling a cavity includes: a block providing the bottom surface of the cavity; and a driver mechanism for applying a force to the block to move the block in a direction that lies along the bottom surface. The driver mechanism moves the block when the cured resin has been formed to separate the cured resin from the bottom surface. This arrangement allows a thinner casting product with a larger major surface to be properly separated from the cavity surface without damaging the casting product and with high driving efficiencies and without equipment including a resin casting mold with a complicated structure or a large size.
Claims4
A resin casting mold for manufacturing a casting product including a cured resin produced by curing a fluid resin filling a cavity, the mold comprising:
- a block providing a bottom surface of said cavity;
- and
- a driver mechanism for applying a force to said block to move said block in a direction that lies along said bottom surface,
- wherein said driver mechanism moves said block when said cured resin has been formed to separate said cured resin from said bottom surface.
A method of casting a resin, comprising the steps of:
- filling a cavity with a fluid resin;
- curing said fluid resin;
- and,
- by moving a block providing a bottom surface of said cavity in a direction that lies along said bottom surface, separating said cured resin from said bottom surface.
