Patent ID: 10543632

Abstract:
An injection molding machine includes, on a machine base, a mold having a stationary platen, an injection unit having a nozzle for injecting a molten material into the mold, a nozzle touch mechanism for pressing the nozzle against the mold, and a connecting member for connecting the nozzle touch mechanism and the stationary platen. The connecting member has a support base and an arm part, and also has a first connecting part to be connected to the nozzle touch mechanism on the support base, and a second connecting part to be connected to the stationary platen on an upper part of the arm part. The injection molding machine is configured so that a nozzle touch force is transmitted to the nozzle touch mechanism via the stationary platen and the connecting member. The second connecting part of the connecting member is disposed to be rotatable in a direction along a moving direction of the injection unit.
