Abstract:
An injection moulding machine comprising:a mould unit and an injection unit having an injection nozzle for injecting a plasticated resin into the mould unit through the injection nozzle, the mould unit comprising a mould opening-closing means, a first mould drivable for opening or closing by the mould opening-closing means, a second mould operable together with the first mould to define a cavity therebetween and to be brought into contact with the injection nozzle, a first guide means for guiding the second mould so that the second mould can be moved in the mould opening-closing direction, a stroke-regulating means for regulating the length of stroke in the mould opening-closing direction of the second mould, and a first energizing means for energizing the second mould in the direction of the first mould, and the injection unit comprising a second guide means for guiding the injection nozzle so that the injection nozzle can be moved in the mould opening-closing direction, a stopper means for defining a limit position of movement of the injection nozzle in the direction of the second mould and a second energizing means for energizing the injection nozzle in the direction of the second mould, wherein the length of a stroke S1 of the second mould caused by the stroke regulating means is set to be equal to or larger than a gap S2 between the second mould and the injection nozzle defined when the moulds are open.
