[0027] The plug-in part 122 of the plugging head 120 is tightly plugged into the hot runner process hole 110, which can completely plug the inner part of the hot runner process hole 110; the arc cap 121 of the plugging head 120 can change from an arc shape to a flat shape under the action of external force, so that the four edges 123 of the arc cap 121 extend outwardly and tightly press against the inner wall of the outer hole 111 of the hot runner process hole 110; the plugging head 120 is fixedly attached to the outer part of the hot runner process hole 110 in the radial direction, and is fixedly inserted into the inner part of the hot runner process hole 110 in the axial direction, so that the plugging structure can more firmly seal the hot runner process hole 110 of the manifold 130.
[0028] In actual application, when the hot runner process hole 110 of the manifold 130 needs to be plugged, the operator inserts the plugging head 120 from the outside to the inside of the hot runner process hole 110; when the plug-in part 122 of the plugging head 120 is inserted into the inner part of the hot runner process hole 110, the operator knocks the arc cap 121 of the plugging head 120 with a rod-shaped tool until the plug-in part 122 is completely inserted into the inner hole 112, the inner side of the arc cap 121 is in close contact with the outer end surface of the inner hole 112, the arc of the arc cap 121 is reduced or completely disappears, and the four edges 123 of the arc cap 121 are in close contact with the inner part of the outer hole 111; at this time, the plugging head 120 is plugged and fixed in the hot runner process hole 110.
