PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide molding equipment capable of simply releasing an optical element remaining in a mold as a molded product and capable of preventing the optical element being the molded product from being deformed in mold opening to be deteriorated in its characteristics.SOLUTION: Since a thrust-out mechanism 74d built in a first mold 41 thrusts out a lens LP toward a second mold 42, it can be avoided that a molded product MP is left on the side of the first mold 41 or strongly adhered to the first mold 41 and the lens LP is prevented from being inclined to be released to enhance the characteristics. Further, stress applied to the molded product MP including the lens LP from the first mold 41 or the like in mold opening or mold release is reduced to prevent the deformation of the molded product MP in the vicinity of the lens LP. Further, since a flange part FL is formed on the side of the first mold 41, burr is scarecely formed on the side of the first optical surface OS1 of the flange part FL. |
