An apparatus for manufacturing a glass compact in which multiple molding dies are pressed at one time by fewer actuators than there are molding dies, wherein the variation in the pressing pressures applied to the multiple molding dies is reduced. A press mechanism (70) comprises press heads (102), multiple shafts (100), actuators (80) a mobile plate (86), and coil springs (106). The press heads (102) are provided correspondingly with respect to a plurality of molding dies (52). The shafts (100) are respectively connected with the press heads (102), and extend to the outside after passing through an upper wall (2A) of a chassis (2). The actuators (80) are provided outside the chassis (1). The mobile plate (86) is disposed outside the chassis (2), and is pressed and moved toward the molding dies (52) by the actuators (80). The coil springs (106) are disposed outside the chassis (2), and can be compressed in the direction of movement of the mobile plate (86). The mobile plate (86) is pressed and moved toward the molding die (52), thereby pressing and moving the multiple shafts (100) and the press heads (102) via the coil springs (106). |
