SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION Here, JP-A-5-3
In Japanese Patent No. 01251, a molten resin of about 280 ° C. is injected into a mold cavity by using a molding method similar to ordinary injection molding, and a mold temperature of 130 ° C. is used. Is illustrated using IMC.
Although the curing temperature of the paint varies depending on the material, if the mold must be set at a temperature equal to or higher than the curing temperature of the paint, the heating and heat retaining means of the mold becomes large-scale, and equipment costs and running costs become high. There is a disadvantage that. Further, when the mold is used at a high temperature, there is a concern that the deterioration is accelerated.

Further, when the temperature of the mold is high, the thermoplastic resin as a molded product becomes soft, so it is necessary to cool the molded article to a temperature at which the shape is maintained and then take it out of the mold. Thus, when cooling and heating must be repeated during molding, the production time required for one molding cycle becomes longer, and there is a problem that productivity is reduced. Therefore, in consideration of these various problems, the productivity by the IMC disclosed in JP-A-5-301251 is not necessarily considered to be high, and it is presumed that the cost increases in terms of equipment and production steps.

However, in the case of a coating film formed under conditions that do not satisfy the predetermined curing conditions, required physical properties may not be obtained in some cases, and usable paints are limited. As described above, considering the handling surface of the paint and the physical properties of the formed coating film, it is desirable that the curing temperature of the paint used for the IMC is high. That is, in the conventional thermoplastic resin IMC, if the emphasis is placed on productivity, the physical properties of the coating film must be sacrificed, while, in order to impart sufficient physical properties to the coating film, the productivity must be sacrificed. It was in a state that I could not do.

The schematic operation of the IMC device 100 is as described above. In the IMC of the present invention, the injection of the paint in one molding cycle is performed in a state where the surface temperature of the resin molded product is higher than the curing temperature of the paint. This is performed when the mold temperature on the cavity side is lower than the curing temperature of the paint. The temperature difference between the mold temperature on the cavity side and the curing temperature of the paint is preferably 20 ° C. or less,
It is more preferable that the temperature be in the range of 5 ° C to 10 ° C.

By the way, in the above-described IMC of the present invention, when the surface of the injected paint is cured to some extent, the mold is opened at a predetermined interval to form a gap in the mold cavity 53, and the coating film is formed. It is also preferable to isolate from one mold. Since the void functions as a heat insulating layer, heat diffusion from the surface of the integrally molded product in which the coating film is in close contact with the surface of the resin molded product to one of the molds on the cavity side is suppressed.

In this manner, the temperature of the coating film can be raised to a temperature equal to or higher than the curing temperature of the paint by the internal heat of the resin molded article, and the curing of the paint can be performed without raising the mold temperature to the curing temperature of the paint. Thus, it is possible to obtain a desired curing temperature, and to shorten the curing time of the coating film.

The "point of time when the surface of the paint has hardened to some extent" means that even if the mold is opened, the shape of the integrally molded article does not collapse, and the paint and the mold can be separated well. Specifically, "opening the molds at a predetermined interval" means opening the molds 51 and 52 by about 0.5 mm to 2 mm.

Now, in the IMC of the present invention, when the surface of the resin molded product is solidified, the dies 51 and 52 are opened at a predetermined interval, and heat diffusion from the surface of the resin molded product to one of the dies is performed. Alternatively, the paint may be injected after the surface temperature of the resin molded article is raised to a temperature equal to or higher than the curing temperature of the paint by the internal heat of the resin molded article. After the paint is injected, the mold clamping cylinder 13 may be driven to control the thickness of the coating film so that a predetermined mold clamping force is applied to the molds 51 and 52.

In this way, when the molds 51 and 52 are closed again, the retained heat of the resin molded product passes through the coating film and the molds 51 and 52.
52 will diffuse to both, but once the mold 51
By opening 52 and storing heat in the resin molded product, the amount of heat required for curing the paint is secured. Thus, also in the case of the present method, it is possible to form a good coating film without raising the mold temperature to the curing temperature of the paint.
