Description

  The present invention relates to an injection mold of a resin ring-shaped product having a metallic feeling, and more particularly to measures for aligning a glossy material.

  In Patent Document 1, when a resin ring-shaped product is injection-molded, a resin reservoir in which a part of the thermoplastic resin is introduced near the gate of the outer peripheral edge of the cavity, that is, at a location away from the joining portion where the thermoplastic resin joins. By providing the portion, the pressure balance at the respective tip portions of the thermoplastic resins flowing in the opposite directions is broken, and thereby the thermoplastic resin is intricately entangled at the joining portion, and the rigidity of the ring-shaped product is increased at the joining portion. I try to improve.

  By the way, when the resin ring-shaped product is injection-molded as in Patent Document 1, the thermoplastic resin injected into the cavity flows in the opposite directions in the cavity and merges with each other due to incomplete fusion of the thermoplastic resin. A weld line is generated and the designability is lowered.

  In particular, when a ring-shaped product having a metallic feeling is formed by injecting a thermoplastic resin containing a glossy material such as an aluminum piece into a cavity, the thermoplastic resin has a turbulent flow at the junction, resulting in glossiness. Disturbance also occurs in the orientation of the material, the expression of the weld line becomes remarkable, and the design property is remarkably lowered. In the method of Patent Document 1, since the thermoplastic resin is intricately intertwined at the junction, the tendency increases.

Therefore, as shown in FIG. 13, for example, one resin reservoir portion e near the joining portion d of the thermoplastic resin c on the parting surface b of the fixed mold a is connected to the cavity g through an introduction path f composed of a narrow portion. Contained in the thermoplastic resin c by introducing the thermoplastic resin c joined at the joining part d into the resin reservoir part e through the introduction path f and causing the thermoplastic resin c to flow. It is conceivable to suppress the development of the weld line by correcting the disorder of the orientation of the glossy material.
Japanese Patent Laying-Open No. 2002-301742 (pages 2, 5 and 4)

  However, as shown in FIG. 13, when the thermoplastic resin c is introduced from one introduction path f into one resin reservoir e provided in the vicinity of the junction d, the glossy material generated at the junction d In order to correct the disturbance of the orientation, when the volume of the resin reservoir e and the cross-sectional area of the introduction path f are set so that the thermoplastic resin c in the merged part d has a sufficient flow toward the introduction path f after the merge, The flow of the thermoplastic resin c to the introduction path f becomes violent, the orientation of the glossy material is disturbed near the introduction path f, black streaks appear on the product surface, and the occurrence of the weld line is suppressed as desired. I can't.

  The present invention has been made in view of such points, and the object of the present invention is to suppress the development of the weld line in the case of injection molding a resin ring-shaped product, and to design the molded ring-shaped product. It is to improve.

  In order to achieve the above object, the present invention is characterized in that the structure of the resin reservoir portion and the introduction path for communicating the resin reservoir portion with the cavity is devised.

  Specifically, the invention according to any one of claims 1 to 7 includes a fixed mold and a movable mold, and a ring-shaped thermoplastic resin containing a gloss material formed between the fixed mold and the movable mold. Based on the premise of an injection mold that molds a resin ring-shaped product by flowing in opposite directions to flow into the cavity, the following solution was taken.

  That is, according to the first aspect of the present invention, a plurality of resin reservoirs are respectively provided in the vicinity of the joining portion of the thermoplastic resin on the fixed or movable parting surface through introduction paths each including a narrow portion. It is provided at intervals so as to communicate with the cavity.

  The invention according to claim 2 is the invention according to claim 1, wherein the volume of the plurality of resin reservoirs is almost the same as the filling of the thermoplastic resin or the distance closer to the joining portion of the thermoplastic resin is closer to the one. Also, it is formed in a size that is completed with a delay.

  The invention according to claim 3 is characterized in that, in the invention according to claim 1 or 2, the cross-sectional area of the introduction path is formed larger in the direction closer to the joining portion of the thermoplastic resin than in the far side. To do.

  According to a fourth aspect of the present invention, in the above premise, a plurality of introductions in which one resin reservoir portion is a narrow portion in the vicinity of the joining portion of the thermoplastic resin on the fixed or movable parting surface. It is provided so as to communicate with the cavity through a path.

  The invention according to claim 5 is characterized in that, in the invention according to claim 4, the cross-sectional area of the introduction path is formed larger in the direction closer to the joining portion of the thermoplastic resin than in the far side.

  According to the sixth aspect of the present invention, in the above premise, in the vicinity of the joining portion of the thermoplastic resin on the fixed or movable parting surface, one resin reservoir portion is formed from a thin and wide narrow portion. It is provided so as to communicate with the cavity through an introduction path.

  The invention described in claim 7 is characterized in that, in the invention described in claim 6, the cross-sectional area of the introduction path is formed so as to gradually decrease as the distance from the joining portion of the thermoplastic resin increases.

  According to the first aspect of the present invention, the thermoplastic resin injected into the cavity flows in opposite directions in the cavity, and the flow of the thermoplastic resin is disturbed at the junction where both flows collide, The glossy material contained in the thermoplastic resin also has an orientation disorder, but this glossy orientation disorder is caused by the flow of both thermoplastic resins colliding at the junction, and then the resin reservoir from the introduction path. By introducing the thermoplastic resin into the thermoplastic resin, the thermoplastic resin at the merging portion is caused to flow toward the introduction path, thereby correcting the disorder of the orientation of the glossy material generated at the merging portion and suppressing the appearance of the weld line. Moreover, since the thermoplastic resin is introduced into the resin reservoir portion from the introduction passages provided in each of the plurality of resin reservoir portions, the flow of the thermoplastic resin to the introduction passage is dispersed and gently flows, and in the vicinity of the introduction passages. Disturbance of the orientation of the gloss material is reduced, black streak marks appearing in the vicinity of the introduction path can be suppressed, and a resin-made ring-shaped product with high design properties can be obtained.

  According to the second aspect of the present invention, the filling of the plurality of resin reservoirs is completed with the thermoplastic resin almost simultaneously or in order from the side closest to the joining portion of the thermoplastic resin. The resulting misalignment of the glossy material is corrected more neatly by the flow of the thermoplastic resin at the merged part toward the introduction path that is further away from the merged part, thereby reliably suppressing the appearance of the weld line. Thus, a resin ring-shaped product having a high design property can be obtained with certainty.

  According to the invention of claim 3, since a large amount of thermoplastic resin can be introduced from the introduction passage having a large cross-sectional area into the resin reservoir portion closest to the joining portion among the plurality of resin reservoir portions, it is oriented to the glossy material. Thus, the flow of the thermoplastic resin at the joining portion where the disturbance is generated efficiently flows toward the introduction path, so that the alignment disorder of the glossy material can be corrected reliably.

  According to the invention of claim 4, since the thermoplastic resin is introduced into one resin reservoir from a plurality of introduction paths, when the capacity of the resin reservoir is full, the plurality of introduction paths are introduced. Inflow of the thermoplastic resin simultaneously stops, and although it has a simple mold structure, it is possible to obtain a resin ring-shaped product with high design by suppressing the expression of the weld line as in the first and second aspects.

  According to the fifth aspect of the present invention, since a large amount of thermoplastic resin can be introduced into one resin reservoir from the introduction path that is closest to the junction and has a large cross-sectional area, disorder of orientation occurs in the glossy material. It is possible to efficiently correct the disorder of the orientation of the glossy material by efficiently generating a flow toward the introduction path in the thermoplastic resin at the joining portion.

  According to the invention of claim 6, since the thermoplastic resin is continuously introduced over a wide range from the thin and wide introduction path to the resin reservoir, the merging portion in which the orientation of the gloss material is disturbed. It is possible to efficiently correct the disturbance of the orientation of the glossy material by efficiently generating a flow toward the introduction path of the thermoplastic resin, and the flow of the thermoplastic resin to the introduction path is uniformly dispersed and gently The disturbance of the orientation of the bright material in the vicinity of the flow and the introduction path is reduced, and the black streak marks appearing in the vicinity of the introduction path can be reliably suppressed.

  According to the invention of claim 7, since a large amount of thermoplastic resin can be introduced into the resin reservoir portion from a portion having a large cross-sectional area close to the joining portion in the wide introduction path, disorder of orientation occurs in the glossy material. It is possible to more efficiently correct the disorder of the orientation of the glossy material by causing the thermoplastic resin at the joining portion to flow more efficiently toward the introduction path.

  Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings.

(Embodiment 1)
FIG. 6 shows a bumper 1 of an automobile, and fog lamps 3 are attached to both ends of the bumper 1 in the vehicle width direction. A resin ring-shaped product 5 according to Embodiment 1 is attached to the outer peripheral edge of the fog lamp 3. This ring-shaped product 5 contains a glossy material and brings out a metallic feeling.

  The ring-shaped product 5 is injection molded using an injection mold 7 as shown in FIGS. The injection mold 7 includes a fixed mold 9 and a movable mold 11, and four guide pins 13 are projected in parallel with each other at four corners of the fixed mold 9. The movable mold 11 is movably supported, and is moved toward and away from the fixed mold 9 by a driving device (not shown) to open and close the molding mold 7. When the mold is closed, a substantially rectangular shape is formed between the fixed mold 9 and the movable mold 11. Two ring-shaped cavities 15 are formed at intervals. In this example, the cavity 15 is constituted by a substantially rectangular ring-shaped recess formed in the parting surface 9 a of the fixed mold 9.

  On the other hand, on the parting surface 11 a of the movable mold 11, a ridge 17 for forming a recess on the back surface of the ring-shaped product 5 is projected corresponding to the shape of the cavity 15. A plurality of recesses 19 for forming locking claws for attaching 5 to the outer peripheral edge of the fog lamp 3 are formed at predetermined intervals so as to correspond to the outer peripheral edge of the cavity 15 (see the phantom line in FIG. 1). FIG. 3). In addition, the fixed mold 9 is formed with a sprue 21 so as to be positioned between the two cavities 15, and the movable mold 11 has a runner 23 and a gate 25 communicating with the sprue 21. The gate 25 communicates with the cavity 15 when the mold is closed (see phantom lines in FIG. 1 and FIG. 2). Then, a ring-shaped article 5 is molded by injecting a thermoplastic resin R (see FIG. 5) containing a gloss material into the cavity 15 through the sprue 21, the runner 23 and the gate 25 from an unillustrated injection machine. ing.

  In the corner part of the parting surface 9a of the fixed mold 9 which is substantially opposite to the gate 25 of the cavity 15, three resin reservoir parts 27 to 29 are respectively introduced through introduction parts 27a to 29a having a rectangular cross section composed of narrow parts. Are spaced from each other so as to communicate with the cavity 15. The positions of the resin reservoirs 27 to 29 are set so as to be close to the vicinity of the junction 31 where the thermoplastic resins R injected into the cavity 15 from the gate 25 flow in opposite directions and merge. . As shown in FIG. 4, the volume of the three resin reservoir portions 27 to 29 is such that the resin reservoir portion 27 closest to the merge portion 31 is the largest volume and the resin reservoir portion 29 farthest from the merge portion 31 is. The intermediate resin reservoir 28 is set to the intermediate volume between the resin reservoirs 27 and 29 in the smallest volume. Moreover, the cross-sectional area of the introduction paths 27a to 29a communicating the three resin reservoirs 27 to 29 to the cavity 15 is the largest cross-sectional area of the introduction path 27a closest to the joining portion 31 of the thermoplastic resin R. The introduction path 29a farthest from the merging portion 31 is set to the smallest cross-sectional area, and the intermediate introduction path 28a is set to the intermediate cross-sectional area of the introduction paths 27a and 29a. Thereby, the filling of the thermoplastic resin R is completed in the order of the resin reservoir 27, the resin reservoir 28, and the resin reservoir 29 in the order farther from the side closer to the merge portion 31. These are the features of the first embodiment.

  Next, a procedure for injection molding the ring-shaped product 5 with the injection mold 7 will be described.

  First, the injection mold 7 is closed, and the thermoplastic resin R containing the gloss material is injected into the cavity 15 from the nozzle of the injection machine through the sprue 21, the runner 23 and the gate 25. The thermoplastic resin R injected into the cavity 15 flows in opposite directions and approaches the resin reservoirs 27 to 29 (see FIG. 5A). When the two flows of the thermoplastic resin R come closest to each other as shown in FIG. 5B, one flow (the flow from the right side to the left side in FIG. 5B) exceeds the corner portion substantially facing the gate 25. Then, at the position close to the corner portion, it merges with the other flow (flow from the upper side to the lower side in FIG. 5 (b)), and the one flow and the other flow collide with each other. The orientation is disturbed (see FIG. 5C). During this time, one flow of the thermoplastic resin R (the flow from the right side to the left side in FIG. 5B) passes through the side of the resin reservoirs 27-29 and passes through the resin reservoirs 27-29 to the resin reservoirs 27. ˜29, the space of the resin reservoirs 27-29 is largely secured (see FIG. 5C).

  Next, the merged thermoplastic resin R is pushed back to the other thermoplastic resin R because one thermoplastic resin R flows into the resin reservoirs 27 to 29 and the flow velocity thereof may decrease. A gentle flow as a whole toward the introduction paths 27a to 29a into the thermoplastic resin R of the merge section 31 introduced into the resin reservoirs 27 to 29 from the introduction paths 27a to 29a and in which the orientation of the glossy material is disturbed. And the disorder of the orientation of the glossy material is corrected (see FIG. 5D). At this time, a large amount of the thermoplastic resin R is introduced into the introduction passage 27a having the largest cross-sectional area in the resin reservoir portion 27 that is closest to the joining portion 31 and has the largest volume, and a large flow toward the introduction passage 27a is generated. Although the disorder of the orientation of the glossy material at the junction 31 is effectively corrected, the orientation of the glossy material that becomes a black streak in the product in the vicinity of the introduction path 27a occurs due to the large flow.

  However, the disorder of the orientation of the glossy material that occurs in the vicinity of the introduction path 27a is introduced from the introduction path 28a whose cross-sectional area is slightly smaller than the introduction path 27a into the adjacent resin pool section 28 whose volume is slightly smaller than the resin pool section 27. Are mutually corrected by the flow of the thermoplastic resin R generated by In the vicinity of the introduction path 28a, the orientation of the glossy material is disturbed by the introduction flow, but since the introduction flow is smaller than that of the introduction path 27a, the orientation of the glossy material is less disturbed (see FIG. 5E).

  Further, the disorder of the orientation of the glossy material generated in the vicinity of the introduction path 28a is corrected by the flow of the thermoplastic resin R introduced from the introduction path 29a having the smallest cross-sectional area into the resin reservoir 29 having the smallest volume. As shown in (f), when all of the three resin reservoirs 27 to 29 are filled with the thermoplastic resin R, the disorder of the orientation of the glossy material generated in the cavity 15 is almost corrected and becomes black stripes. It will not remain. The three resin reservoirs 27 to 29 are filled with the thermoplastic resin R in order from the side closer to the junction 31. The filling of the thermoplastic resin R into the three resin reservoirs 27 to 29 may be completed almost simultaneously.

  As described above, in the first embodiment, the disorder of the orientation of the glossy material generated in the joining portion 31 causes the resin pool from the introduction paths 27a to 29a after the flows of both the thermoplastic resins R collide with each other in the joining portion 31. By introducing the thermoplastic resin R into the portions 27 to 29, the thermoplastic resin R in the merging portion 31 is caused to flow toward the introduction paths 27 a to 29 a, and the orientation of the glossy material generated in the merging portion 31 is disturbed. Correct and suppress weld line expression. Moreover, since the thermoplastic resin R is introduced into the resin reservoirs 27 to 29 from the introduction channels 27a to 29a provided in the three resin reservoirs 27 to 29, the thermoplastic resin R is introduced into the introduction channels 27a to 29a. The flow is dispersed and flows gently, the disorder of the orientation of the glossy material in the vicinity of the introduction paths 27a to 29a is reduced, and the black streak marks appearing in the vicinity of the introduction paths 27a to 29a can be suppressed and molded. In the ring-shaped product 5, the ring-shaped product 5 with high designability can be obtained by aligning the orientation of the glossy material in one direction.

  Furthermore, in the first embodiment, the filling of the thermoplastic resin R into the resin reservoirs 27 to 29 is completed in order from the side closer to the merging portion 31, so the disorder of the orientation of the glossy material generated in the merging portion 31 is Since the thermoplastic resin R in the merge portion 31 flows to the end toward the introduction path 29a further away from the merge portion 31, the flow is corrected more neatly, and the appearance of the weld line is surely suppressed and the design is improved. A high ring-shaped product 5 can be obtained reliably.

  Moreover, in this Embodiment 1, since many thermoplastic resins R are introduce | transduced from the introduction path 27a with the largest cross-sectional area to the resin reservoir part 27 nearest to the confluence | merging part 31 among the three resin reservoir parts 27-29, A flow toward the introduction paths 27a to 29a can be efficiently generated in the thermoplastic resin R of the joining portion 31 where the alignment of the gloss material is disturbed, so that the alignment of the gloss material can be reliably corrected.

  Thereafter, the thermoplastic resin R is solidified in the cavity 15 to form a substantially rectangular ring-shaped product 5. In this ring-shaped product 5, a plurality of locking claws 5 a are integrally projected on the outer peripheral edge portion (see FIG. 3), and the ring-shaped product 5 is attached to the outer peripheral edge portion of the fog lamp 3 by these locking claws 5 a. I am doing so. Further, the resin solid material solidified in the resin reservoirs 27 to 29 and the introduction paths 27a to 29a is integrally projected on the outer peripheral edge portion of the corner portion substantially opposite to the gate 25 of the ring-shaped product 5 ( Not shown). Further, the ring-shaped product 5 is formed with a sprue runner resin solid 33 (see FIG. 2) solidified in the gate 25, the runner 23 and the sprue 21. These resin solids are cut out from the ring-shaped product 5 after opening the injection mold 7 and removing the ring-shaped product 5.

(Embodiment 2)
7 to 9 show an injection mold 7 according to Embodiment 2 of the present invention. Since the second embodiment has the same mold structure as that of the first embodiment except that the resin reservoir and the introduction path are different from the first embodiment, the same reference numerals are given to the same components. Therefore, the description thereof will be omitted, and different points and the means for forming the ring-shaped product 5 will be described below.

  That is, in the second embodiment, one resin reservoir 35 is formed in a corner portion of the parting surface 9a of the fixed mold 9 that is substantially opposite to the gate 25 of the cavity 15, and the resin reservoir 35 is connected to each other. It communicates with the cavity 15 via two introduction rectangles 35a and 35b each having a narrow cross section provided with a gap. The position of the resin reservoir 35 is set so as to be close to the vicinity of the junction 31 where the thermoplastic resins R injected from the gate 25 into the cavity 15 flow in opposite directions and merge. The cross-sectional areas of the introduction passages 35a and 35b are set such that the introduction passage 35a closer to the joining portion 31 of the thermoplastic resin R has a larger cross-sectional area, and the introduction passage 35b far from the joining portion 31 has a smaller cross-sectional area. Yes.

  Next, a procedure for injection molding the ring-shaped product 5 with the injection mold 7 will be described.

  First, the injection mold 7 is closed, and the thermoplastic resin R containing the gloss material is injected into the cavity 15 from the nozzle of the injection machine through the sprue 21, the runner 23 and the gate 25. The thermoplastic resin R injected into the cavity 15 flows in opposite directions and approaches the resin reservoir 35 (see FIG. 9A). When the two flows of the thermoplastic resin R come closest to each other as shown in FIG. 9B, one flow (the flow from the right side to the left side in FIG. 9B) exceeds the corner portion substantially facing the gate 25. Then, at the position close to the corner portion, it merges with the other flow (flow from the upper side to the lower side in FIG. 9B), and the one flow and the other flow collide with each other, and the gloss of the thermoplastic resin R The orientation is disturbed (see FIG. 9C). During this time, one flow of the thermoplastic resin R (flow from the right side to the left side in FIG. 9B) passes through the side of the resin reservoir 35 and is slightly transferred from the introduction paths 35a and 35b to the resin reservoir 35. The space of the resin reservoir 35 is secured large (see FIG. 9C).

  Next, the joined thermoplastic resin R is pushed back to the other thermoplastic resin R because the flow rate of the one thermoplastic resin R flows into the resin reservoir 35 and the flow velocity thereof may decrease. An overall gentle flow dispersed toward the introduction paths 35a and 35b is generated in the thermoplastic resin R of the merge section 31 introduced into the section 35 from the introduction paths 35a and 35b and in which the orientation of the glossy material is disturbed. Then, the disorder of the orientation of the glossy material is corrected (see FIG. 9D). At this time, a large amount of the thermoplastic resin R is introduced into the introduction passage 35a having a large cross-sectional area in one resin reservoir portion 35, and a large flow toward the introduction passage 35a is generated. Although the disturbance is effectively corrected, the large flow causes a disturbance in the orientation of the glossy material that becomes a black streak in the product in the vicinity of the introduction path 35a.

  However, the disorder of the orientation of the glossy material that occurs in the vicinity of the introduction path 35a is corrected by the flow of the thermoplastic resin R that is introduced from the adjacent introduction path 35b whose cross-sectional area is smaller than the introduction path 35a. As shown in FIGS. 9D and 9E, the thermoplastic resin R is completely filled into the single resin reservoir 35 from the introduction paths 35a and 35b. At this point, the introduction of the introduction paths 35a and 35b is stopped at the same time and ends in a state in which the disorder of the orientation of the glossy material due to the introduction flow cancels each other, so that the filling of the thermoplastic resin R is completed in the cavity 15 in the process. Most of the orientation disorder of the glossy material remains corrected.

  As described above, in the second embodiment, since the thermoplastic resin R is gradually introduced into the single resin reservoir 35 from the two introduction paths 35a and 35b, the capacity of the resin reservoir 35 becomes full. At that time, the inflow of the thermoplastic resin R to the two introduction paths 35a and 35b is stopped simultaneously, and the appearance of the weld line is suppressed and the design is high in the same manner as in the first embodiment while having a simple mold structure. A ring-shaped product 5 can be obtained.

  Further, in the second embodiment, since the thermoplastic resin R can be introduced in a large amount into the single resin reservoir 35 from the introduction path 35a having a large cross-sectional area close to the joining portion 31, the orientation of the glossy material is disturbed. It is possible to efficiently correct the disorder of the orientation of the glossy material by efficiently generating a flow toward the introduction paths 35a and 35b in the thermoplastic resin R in the joining portion 31 that is generated.

(Embodiment 3)
10 to 12 show an injection mold 7 according to Embodiment 3 of the present invention. Since the third embodiment has the same mold structure as that of the first embodiment except that the shape of the resin reservoir and the introduction path is different from that of the first embodiment, the same reference numerals are given to the same components. Therefore, the description thereof will be omitted, and different points and the means for forming the ring-shaped product 5 will be described below.

  That is, in the third embodiment, one resin reservoir portion 37 is formed in the corner portion of the parting surface 9a of the fixed mold 9 substantially opposite to the gate 25 of the cavity 15 as in the second embodiment. The resin reservoir portion 37 communicates with the cavity 15 via a single thin-walled wide narrow introduction portion 37a. The position of the resin reservoir 37 is set so as to be close to the vicinity of the junction 31 where the thermoplastic resins R injected from the gate 25 into the cavity 15 flow in opposite directions and merge. The cross-sectional area of the introduction path 37a is set so as to gradually decrease as the distance from the merging portion 31 of the thermoplastic resin is increased, and the portion near the merging portion is deeper than the portion far from the merging portion, and the depth thereof is the merging portion. If the depth near the point is D1, and the depth far from the junction is D2, the relationship is D1> D2.

  Next, a procedure for injection molding the ring-shaped product 5 with the injection mold 7 will be described.

  First, the injection mold 7 is closed, and the thermoplastic resin R containing the gloss material is injected into the cavity 15 from the nozzle of the injection machine through the sprue 21, the runner 23 and the gate 25. The thermoplastic resin R injected into the cavity 15 flows in opposite directions and approaches the resin reservoir 37 (see FIG. 12A). When the two flows of the thermoplastic resin R come closest to each other as shown in FIG. 12B, one flow (the flow from the right side to the left side in FIG. 12B) exceeds the corner portion substantially facing the gate 25. Then, at the position close to the corner portion, it merges with the other flow (flow from above to below in FIG. 12B), and the one flow and the other flow collide with each other to align the glossy material of the thermoplastic resin R. Is disturbed (see FIG. 12C). During this time, one flow of the thermoplastic resin R (flow from the right side to the left side in FIG. 12B) slightly flows into the resin pool portion 37 from the introduction path 37a in the process of passing the side of the resin pool portion 37. The space portion of the resin reservoir portion 37 is secured large (see FIG. 12C).

  Next, the joined thermoplastic resin R is pushed back to the other thermoplastic resin R because the flow rate of the one thermoplastic resin R flows into the resin reservoir 37 and the flow rate thereof may be lowered. An overall gentle flow dispersed toward the continuous introduction path 37a is generated in the thermoplastic resin R of the merged part 31 introduced into the part 37 from the introduction path 37a, and the glossy material is disturbed in its orientation. The disorder of the orientation of the material is corrected (see FIG. 12D). At this time, a large amount of the thermoplastic resin R is introduced into the resin reservoir 37 from a location near the junction 31 where the introduction path 37a is deep, and a large flow is generated toward the introduction path 37a. This effectively corrects the disorder of orientation. Further, since the flow gradually changes as the distance from the merging portion 31 is increased by the continuous introduction path 27a, the orientation of the glossy material is not disturbed in the vicinity of the introduction path 37a due to the introduction of the thermoplastic resin R. No black streaks are left in the cavity 15 due to the disorder of the orientation of the glossy material (see FIG. 12E).

  As described above, in the third embodiment, since the thermoplastic resin R is continuously introduced over a wide range from the thin and wide introduction path 37a to the resin reservoir 37, disorder of orientation occurs in the glossy material. The flow of the thermoplastic resin R to the introduction path 37a can be reliably corrected by causing the thermoplastic resin R of the joining portion 31 to efficiently flow toward the introduction path 37a to reliably correct the orientation disorder of the glossy material. Are uniformly dispersed and flow gently, the disorder of the orientation of the glossy material in the vicinity of the introduction path 37a is reduced, and black streak marks appearing in the vicinity of the introduction path 37a are reliably suppressed.

  Further, in the third embodiment, the thermoplastic resin R can be introduced into the resin reservoir portion 37 from a portion having a large cross-sectional area close to the merge portion 31 in the wide introduction path 37a, and therefore, it is oriented to the glossy material. Thus, the flow of the thermoplastic resin R in the confluent portion 31 where the turbulence is generated can be more efficiently caused to flow toward the introduction path 37a, and the turbulence of the glossy material can be more reliably corrected.

  The present invention is useful for an injection mold of a resin ring-shaped product having a metallic feeling.
