Abstract
Heating device for locally heating of an injection mold cavity wall, comprising: a base plate, an actuator located on the base plate, to perform a linear movement; a heated stamp connected to the actuator and driven by the actuator, to perform a linear movement in direction to and from the injection mold cavity wall; wherein the heated stamp is located below the base plate and the actuator is located on top of the base plate, and wherein the base plate comprises an opening through which a pin extends for transferring the linear movement from the actuator to the heated stamp.
Claims16
A hot runner system comprising holding means to physically hold a heating device for locally heating an outer surface of a wall of an injection mold having a plurality of gates, wherein the heating device comprises an actuator to perform a linear movement;
- a heated stamp connected to the actuator and driven by the actuator, to perform a linear movement of the heated stamp toward and into physical contact with the outer surface of the mold to conduct heat through the wall of the mold remote from the gates and to perform a linear movement of the heated stamp away from and out of contact with the outer surface of the mold to allow coupling of the mold wall.
