Hot runner nozzle tip and hot runner nozzle tip components

A nozzle tip connectable to a hot runner nozzle, the nozzle tip comprising:

• an inner tip component including
• a base with a channel bore that extends therethrough, and
• a torpedo having a first tapered portion, a second tapered portion and an inner extension portion that extends therebetween, the first tapered portion surrounded by an expanding portion of the channel bore so as to define a first annular channel segment therebetween;
• and
• an outer tip component having
• an attachment portion for connecting the nozzle tip to the hot runner nozzle,
• an outer extension portion that projects from the attachment portion, and
• a bore that extends through the attachment portion and the outer extension portion,
• wherein the inner tip component is received in the outer tip component so as to define a second annular channel segment between the inner extension portion and the bore that extends through the outer tip component, and a third annular channel segment between an external conical surface of the second tapered portion and an internal tapered surface of a contracting portion of the bore that extends through the outer tip component.

A hot runner nozzle tip component comprising:

• a base having a radially expanding channel bore;
• a torpedo having an upstream facing conical portion positioned relative to the base so as to be surrounded by the radially expanding channel bore;
• and
• at least one connector that extends between the upstream facing conical portion of the torpedo and the radially expanding channel bore in the base.
