Abstract
An injection apparatus having a pressure holding device of a novel constitution, capable of preventing flow-out and decrease of resin when holding pressure, and eliminating instability in pressure holding due to volume changes, by forming the front end of the pressure holding plunger obliquely disposed between front and rear resin paths or penetrating a passage between the resin paths.
Claims2
An injection apparatus, comprising:
- an injection cylinder having a first end and a second end;
- an injection screw disposed at said second end of said injection cylinder;
- a rear resin path having a first end and a second end, said rear resin path disposed within said injection cylinder and said second end of said rear resin path communicating with said injection screw;
- a front resin path having a first end and a second end, said front resin path disposed within said injection cylinder and said second end of said front resin path communicating with a first end of said rear resin path;
- a nozzle at said first end of said injection cylinder and communicating with said first end of said front resin path;
- and
- a pressure holding device disposed between said second end of said front resin path and said first end of said rear resin path,
- wherein said pressure holding device comprises:
- a rotatable pressure holding plunger,
- a piston connected to said pressure holding plunger, and
- a hydraulic cylinder communicating with said plunger,
- wherein said pressure holding plunger is rotatable to a first position, said first position allowing said front resin path to communicate with said rear resin path,
- wherein said pressure holding plunger is rotatable to a second position, said second position isolating said front resin path from said rear resin path, and
- wherein said pressure holding plunger is advanceable to a third position, said third position emptying said front resin path.
