Abstract

A process includes: supplying a main resin from outer and inner flow channel, to a joined flow channel at a predetermined supply velocity for a predetermined time; supplying a second resin from a middle flow channel to the joined flow channel simultaneously with the main resin at a predetermined supply velocity for a certain time within the predetermined time; and sliding a shut-off pin to bring the pin forefront to a predetermined position near an outlet of the inner flow channel, open to the joined flow channel, before the second resin is supplied, or during a time starting after a time from the start of the second resin supply and ending with the termination of the supply, so that the velocity of main resin supply from the inner flow channel to the joined flow channel is reduced to a predetermined level by adjusting the degree of aperture for the outlet.

First claim

The invention claimed is:

1. A device for injection molding a preform in a test tube shape for biaxial stretching and blow molding use, in which preform a second-resin layer serving as an intermediate layer is laminated with main-resin layers that make up a shape of the preform, the device having a nozzle section for forming a joined resin fluid by allowing a second resin for forming the second-resin layer to join a main resin for forming the main-resin layers, and having a mold disposed ahead of the nozzle section,
wherein the nozzle section integrally forms comprises inside:
three cylindrical layer-forming flow channels including an outer flow channel, a middle flow channel, and an inner flow channel in an outside-to-inside order,
a joined flow channel connected to these three flow channels and extended to the head of the nozzle section,
a manifold having a conical shape that guides the main resin to the outer flow channel and to the inner flow channel,
an other manifold having a conical shape that guides the second resin to the middle flow channel,
wherein the main resin is passed through the outer flow channel and inner flow channel, and the second resin is passed through the middle flow channel, and

a rod-like shut-off pin disposed on an inner side of the inner flow channel and slidably inserted therein, wherein an outlet of the inner flow channel, which is open to the joined flow channel, is shut off or opened, and a degree of aperture can be adjusted, by controlling the position of a forefront of the shut-off pin.

2. The injection molding device according to claim 1 wherein the device comprises:
a first resin feeder for feeding the main resin and a second resin feeder for feeding the second resin,
wherein the two resins are joined together in a cylindrical shape to form a joined resin fluid in joined flow channel, which fills a cavity by being injected therein by way of a pin gate disposed at a position of the cavity of the mold corresponding to the center of a bottom wall of the preform.

3. The injection molding device according to claim 2 wherein the inner flow channel has a diameter-reduced flow channel in an end portion, where the diameter is reduced in a tapered manner to a level adequate for the joined flow channel.

4. The injection molding device according to claim 1 wherein the sliding movement of the shut-off pin is controlled by a servomechanism.

5. The injection molding device according to claim 1 wherein the inner flow channel has a diameter-reduced flow channel in an end portion, where the diameter is reduced in a tapered manner to a level adequate for the joined flow channel.

6. The injection molding device according to claim 2 wherein the sliding movement of the shut-off pin is controlled by a servomechanism.

7. The injection molding device according to claim 3 wherein the sliding movement of the shut-off pin is controlled by a servomechanism.

8. The injection molding device according to claim 5 wherein the sliding movement of the shut-off pin is controlled by a servomechanism.
