Blow mold unit and blow molding device

摘要

In the process of closing a blow cavity split mold 14, a roller 32 is allowed to directly contact a bottom surface 38 of a guide block 36 and roll thereon. Thus, the mold clamping movement of the blow cavity split mold 14 is guided, without clearance from the guide block 36. Consequently, the upward movement of the blow cavity split mold 14 is regulated.

主权项

1. A blow mold unit, comprising:
a blow mold including a pair of split molds openably and closably supported in a horizontal plane on a machine base; guided members provided in the split molds at sites along an opening/closing direction of the split molds the pair of split molds; and guide members which are provided on the machine base and which the guided members contact so as to roll relatively in accordance with opening and closing of the pair of split molds,
wherein the guided members are each a rotating member rotating about an axis which is perpendicular to the opening/closing direction of the split molds, and which extends parallel to the horizontal plane in the opening/closing direction of the split molds,the guide members each have a rolling contact surface for regulating movement of the split molds in a direction crossing the opening/closing direction of the split molds upon rolling of the rotating member, andthe rolling contact surface has an inclined plane, which is provided at a site where the rotating member starts to contact the guide member when the split molds are clamped and which inclines gradually downwards toward a mold clamping direction, and a holding surface which is a horizontal surface supporting the rotating member when the split molds are closed.
