MOLD CLAMPING DEVICE AND MOLD THICKNESS ADJUSTING METHOD

摘要

An object is to provide a mold-clamping apparatus (10) in which the number of parts to be moved in adjusting mold thickness is reduced to thereby exhibit enhanced accuracy in adjusting mold thickness. The mold-clamping apparatus (10) includes a first stationary member to which a stationary mold (15) is attached; a first movable member disposed in opposition to the first stationary member and to which a movable mold (16) is attached; and a second movable member to be advanced and retreated in association with advancement and retreat of the first movable member. Mold thickness is adjusted by means of changing relative positions of the first movable member and the second movable member; thus, the number of parts to be moved in adjusting mold thickness can be reduced, whereby accuracy in adjusting mold thickness can be enhanced.
