The injection ram 7 controls the injection pressure and the back pressure by the pressure oil in the oil chamber C of the injection cylinder 8, and the pressure oil supplied from the pump 9 to the oil chamber C is pressure-controlled by the pressure valve 10. Filling the resin in the space B at the tip of the screw cylinder 11 from the nozzle 5 into the mold space A formed by the core mold 3 and the cavity mold 4 is called an injection step.
The pressure in the oil chamber C generally reaches a value of 70 to 140 kgf / cm 2 . Screw 6 This force moves in the arrow D 1 direction, the injection can be. Also by rotating the screw 6 in the arrow D 3 direction, the space B

First, the in-mold filling will be described. In order to compress the resin filled in the in-mold space A formed by the core mold 3 and the cavity mold 4, a gap e is previously provided between the core mold 3 and the cavity mold 4. In this state, the core mold 3 and the cavity mold 4 are locked by means not shown. In this state, the resin of the space B, is charged into the mold space A by advancing the screw 6 in the arrow D 1 direction. Screw 6
When charging is completed, the oil pressure in the oil chamber C of the injection cylinder 8 is held at the forward position by a force controlled by the pressure valve 10.

Next, cavity compression will be described. Here, when the filling is completed, the core mold 3 advances to eliminate the gap e, and is completely joined to the cavity mold 4. Also core type 3
The space A in the mold is reduced by the advance of the resin, and the resin inside is compressed. For this reason, the resin which has been filled beforehand fills the corners of the space A in the mold, and at the same time, tends to flow back into the space B. The change with time of the internal pressure of the mold space A in the compression step is as follows:
Since it affects the weight variation of the molded product and the magnitude of the internal strain, it must be strictly controlled. This pressure is controlled by the force for holding the screw 6, that is, the oil pressure of the oil chamber C of the injection cylinder 8. In addition, in order to control the in-mold pressure in the compression step, generally, the hydraulic pressure of the injection cylinder 8
A pressure of 70-140 kgf / cm 2 is required.

Next, plasticization will be described. The compression of the cavity is completed, the screw 6 is rotated in the arrow D 3 direction and back by a resin supplied to乍Ra arrow D 2 direction by a predetermined amount to the tip space B of the screw cylinder 11 again. At this time, the pressure in the oil chamber C of the cylinder 8 must be generally maintained at about 1 to 10 kgf / cm 2 .

(Problems to be Solved by the Invention) In the above-mentioned conventional method, since the control of the mold inner pressure in the compression step is performed by the injection cylinder 8, there is a disadvantage that the molding cycle cannot be shortened. The reason for this is that, as shown in FIG. 4, if the injection process (filling in the mold) is completed, the pressure in the oil chamber C is as high as 70 to 140 kgf / cm 2 even if plasticization is attempted immediately. It was to not be able to retreat immediately to the arrow D 2 direction to rotate, therefore it is impossible to store the resin in the space B.

In the present invention, the pressure control required for the compression step is performed by means other than the injection cylinder 8 so that compression and plasticization are performed simultaneously, thereby shortening the cycle.

(Means for Solving the Problems) For this reason, the present invention provides an injection compression molding machine that compresses a molten resin once injected into a mold by reducing the cavity volume by an external force to form a predetermined shape. In the in-mold pressure control method, an opening / closing mechanism having a sealing force control means for a resin flow path is provided in a nozzle portion of an injection device so that a resin flow from a mold side of the opening / closing mechanism to a side of the injection device during a compression process is prevented. Further, the pressure in the mold is controlled by changing the sealing force of the opening / closing mechanism in an arbitrary pattern with time, and this is a means for solving the problem.

(Operation) By controlling the sealing force of the open / close valve provided in place of the nozzle by hydraulic pressure from a hydraulic pressure source different from the injection pressure,
Since the pressure in the injection cylinder required for plasticization can be set separately from the pressure required for the compression step, the above-described simultaneous operation can be performed. Therefore, the cycle can be shortened by the time of the compression step.
