  However, since the shaft portion is frictionally locked to the hole, there is a possibility that the flow rate may change due to the rotation of the valve portion when the molten resin flows.

  If the shaft portion is firmly inserted into the hole, it is possible to suppress the rotation of the valve portion due to the flow of the molten resin, but it is difficult to rotate the valve portion and it is difficult to adjust the valve portion.

  Accordingly, an object of the present invention is to provide a mold that can be easily rotated by a valve portion and that can prevent the valve portion from being rotated by the flow of molten resin.

The mold according to the present invention includes a first member composed of a pair of members forming a molding part on a mating surface and a pair of members forming a material supply path for supplying a molten material to the molding part on the mating surface. 2 members,
The first member and the second member are integrated or separated, and the second member has a first through hole whose one end opens on a road surface of the material supply path of the one member, One member has a second through hole formed in parallel with the first through hole in the vicinity of the first through hole outside the material supply path, and the second member has the second through hole. A mold provided with a lock member arrangement space in which the other end of the first through hole and the second through hole are opened on the opposite side of the pair of members of the pair of members;
The first through hole has a shaft portion that freely pivots, is provided at one end of the shaft, is located in the material supply passage, and controls the flow rate of the material supply passage by the rotation of the shaft portion. A flow rate adjusting member having a valve portion to perform,
A locking member which has an insertion hole which is arranged in the lock member arrangement space and which is inserted through the shaft portion, and which has a male screw which is axially parallel to the shaft portion at a position facing the second through hole. Equipped,
By rotating the male screw through the second through hole, the end of the male screw is stretched against the one member, and the lock member is tilted with respect to the shaft so as to lock the shaft. It is characterized by this.

Another mold of the present invention includes a first member comprising a pair of members forming a molding part, and a second member comprising a pair of members forming a material supply path for supplying a molten material to the molding part, With
The first member and the second member are integrated or separated, and the second member has a first through hole whose one end opens on a road surface of the material supply path of the one member, One member has a second through hole formed in parallel with the first through hole in the vicinity of the first through hole outside the material supply path, and the second member has the second through hole. A lock member arrangement space in which the other end of the first through hole and the second through hole are opened on the opposite side of the mating surface of the pair of members is provided, and at least the lock of the second through hole is provided. A mold in which a female screw is formed near the member arrangement space,
The first through hole has a shaft portion that freely pivots, is provided at one end of the shaft, is located in the material supply passage, and controls the flow rate of the material supply passage by the rotation of the shaft portion.
