Abstract:
A shape forming system according to one embodiment includes a mold assemblies; a heating unit; a pressing unit; a cooling unit; an isolation chamber configured to accommodate therein the heating unit, the pressing unit, and the cooling unit arranged in parallel with each other; and a conveyance unit configured to move the plurality of mold assemblies each of which is arranged on a plate provided in each of the heating unit, the pressing unit, and the cooling unit to thereby convey the mold assemblies in sequence.

Claim (Index 1):
A shape forming system comprising:\n mold assemblies each configured to retain a to-be-formed material; a heating unit configured to heat the mold assemblies to thereby subject the to-be-formed material to a heating treatment; a pressing unit configured to apply pressure to the mold assemblies to thereby subject the to-be-formed material to a shape forming treatment; a cooling unit configured to cool the mold assemblies after the shape forming treatment to thereby subject a shaped product obtained by subjecting the to-be-formed material to the shape forming treatment to a cooling treatment; an isolation chamber configured to accommodate therein the heating unit, the pressing unit, and the cooling unit arranged in series with each other; and a conveyance unit configured to move the mold assemblies each of which is arranged on a plate provided in each of the heating unit, the pressing unit, and the cooling unit to thereby convey the mold assemblies in sequence, wherein each of the mold assemblies includes sat least one coupling pin extending along a conveyance path so as to form a coupling section, the conveyance unit includes a shoving mechanism configured to shove the coupling section along the conveyance path, a plurality of mold assemblies are arranged in such a manner that end parts of adjoining coupling sections abut on each other to be continuous with each other, and are conveyed in a collective manner, and the shoving mechanism conveys a dummy mold assembly formed into a shape identical to the mold assembly in place of the mold assembly according to an instruction of a control device at a time of starting or stopping an operation, at a time of maintenance, after completion of shape forming of a required number of shaped products, or at a time of exchange of the mold.
