[0025] Moreover, the upper template 4 is provided with a through hole 421 in the first flow channel 42, and the through hole 421 is connected to the bottom of the upper template 4. A plurality of shaping blocks 6 are evenly arranged on the bottom surface of the upper template 4. The shaping blocks 6 can cooperate with the two molding cavities to be injection molded into an optical lens.
[0026] Moreover, multiple injection channels 31 are provided in the upper mold base 3, and the bottom of each injection channel 31 is aligned with the first flow channel 42 below and provided with a through hole 421. A first groove 32 is provided on the bottom surface of the upper mold base 3, and the insert block 7 located on the upper mold plate 4 can be snapped into the first groove 32.

The liquid plastic then flows out from each injection channel 31 and flows onto the first flow channel 42. A portion of the liquid plastic then flows from the first flow channel 42 into each first molding cavity 41, and can be shaped into an optical lens in cooperation with the molding block 6 at the bottom of the upper mold base 3.
[0029] The other part of the liquid plastic will flow vertically from the through hole 421 to the second flow channel 53, and then flow from the second flow channel 53 into the second molding cavity 52, and can be molded into an optical lens in conjunction with the shaping block 6 of the upper template 4. After the injection molding is completed, the upper template 4 and the lower template 5 are removed through the connecting blocks 51 on both sides, so that multiple optical lenses can be injection molded at one time.
