Injection mold capable of shearing film gate within mold

摘要

An injection mold of the type in which a film gate of a resin is formed and in which shearing of the film gate is conducted by a movement of a gate cutter (1) alone. The gate cutter (1) has a stepped cylindrical form with a main cylindrical portion of a greater diameter (D) and a coaxial end cylindrical portion of a smaller diameter (d). When the mold is closed, the end cylindrical portion being received in the bore of a confronting die (4) leaving therebetween an annular gap (t) of a radial size which determines a gate thickness. The outer peripheral surface of the portion of the gate cutter received in the bore of the die presenting a gate land.
