摘要:
An injection molding apparatus includes a manifold having a heated inlet body and an unheated distribution branch. A melt channel of the inlet body receives a melt stream of moldable material and delivers the melt stream to a melt channel of the distribution branch. The distribution branch has a first end, which is coupled to the inlet body, and a second end, which is coupled to a nozzle. The nozzle includes a nozzle channel for receiving the melt stream from the distribution melt channel. The distribution branch is formed of a tube surrounded by a conductive sleeve. A mold cavity communicates with the nozzle channel and receives the melt stream from the nozzle channel through a mold gate.

A nozzle end is provided for removable mounting to a nozzle body for use in multiple-tipped molding applications such as edge-gated systems. The nozzle end is made of a highly thermally conductive material and is preferably inserted at least partially inside the forward end of the heated nozzle body. Removable nozzle tips are insertable in the front end of the nozzle end.

An injection molding hot runner nozzle includes a nozzle body comprising a nozzle core, a nozzle tip, and a melt passage extending through the nozzle body for conveying melt from a manifold through the nozzle tip and to a gate of a mold cavity. A cylindrical sleeve is disposed around the nozzle body, the sleeve being slidably removable from the nozzle body. A wire heating element for heating melt in the melt passage is is spirally wound about the sleeve. A temperature sensor comprising a wire is spirally wound about the sleeve.

The present invention is an injection molding apparatus having a cast manifold. The manifold is made from a cast block and includes at least one pipe and a junction component fixed therein. The junction component has an axial bore having a first end and a second end, and at least one radial bore fluidly connected to the axial bore and having an opening to an outer surface of the junction component. A melt is introduced into the manifold and travels through the radial and axial bores of the junction component and through at least one pipe connected thereto to an injection molding nozzle for injection into a mold cavity. A manifold of the present invention may have a plurality of pipes and junction components to form a branched multi-level cast manifold.

An injection molding apparatus that includes a nozzle having a nozzle channel, a mold cavity in communication with the nozzle channel of the nozzle for receiving a melt stream of moldable material from the nozzle channel through a mold gate; and a valve pin that is axially movable through the nozzle channel of the nozzle between a first retracted position in which the valve pin closes the mold gate to block melt flow between the nozzle channel and the mold cavity, an extended position in which an end portion of the valve pin extends through the mold gate and into the mold cavity, and a third retracted position in which the end portion of the nozzle pin is withdrawn from the mold cavity into the nozzle and spaced apart from the mold gate thereby opening the mold gate. The end portion of the valve pin defines a melt flow path on an outer surface thereof that extends through the mold gate when the valve pin is in the extended position for transmitting the melt stream from the nozzle channel to the mold cavity when the valve pin is in the extended position.

A neuromuscular monitoring system comprises at least one neurostimulator to apply muscle-activating stimulation signals to a patient's body via at least one electrode, and at least one pressure waveform sensor to detect pressure waveform signals produced by a patient's muscle in response to the applied stimulation signals. The detected pressure waveform signals are processed and data related to these detected pressure waveform signals are displayed. A method for neuromuscular monitoring using pressure waveform sensors is also described.

An improved melt distribution system and method is provided for a multi-level stack mold having three or more moving platens. The injection machine communicates with a bifurcated sprue bar for providing pressurized melt through the first moving platen to a central distribution manifold in the second moving platen. From the central distribution manifold, the flow of pressurized melt is distributed to the first and third platens for transfer to a plurality of mold cavities.

A nozzle for an injection molding apparatus is provided. The nozzle includes a nozzle body, a heater and a first gap seal surface. The nozzle body defines a nozzle body melt passage, that is adapted to be downstream from and in fluid communication with a melt source, and upstream from and in fluid communication with a gate into a mold cavity in a mold component. The heater is thermally connected to the nozzle body for heating melt in the nozzle body melt passage. The first gap seal surface is positioned on a structure that is connected at least indirectly to the nozzle body. The first gap seal surface is adapted to be separated by a gap with respect to a second gap seal surface on the mold component. The gap is sized to inhibit the flow of melt between the first gap seal surface and the second gap seal surface.
