Abstract

PURPOSE:To prevent air bubbles from forming on the optical face of a molded article in the drum part of a mold for molding an optical element by providing a heat insulator between a part introducing a material for molding and parts holding the upper and lower molds and retaining the material for molding at higher temp. than the upper and lower molds. CONSTITUTION:In a drum mold 3 of a molding die, a heat insulator 13 is arranged between a part 3a introducing a material 10 for molding and the parts 3b, 3c holding an upper mold 1 and a lower mold 2. Therefore the material 10 introduced into the drum mold 3 can be convergently heated by both a light source 7 for heating and a radiation heater contg. a reflective plate 8. In such a way, while making temp. difference between the material 10 for molding and the upper and lower molds 1, 2 in the drum mold 3, the material 10 is heated, softened and pressurized and molded by the upper and lower molds 1, 2. Thereby a fault such as air bubbles is not formed in the contact faces 19 between the upper and lower molds 1, 2 for the molded optical element 18 and the pressure molding is performed in a short time.
