Description

[Technical field]

[0001] The present invention relates to an injection molding die used for injection molding of a two-component mixed type thermosetting resin, a manufacturing method for a resin molded product using the two-component mixed type thermosetting resin, and an injection molding method for a two-component mixed type thermosetting resin, and in particular to an injection molding die, a manufacturing method for a resin molded product, and an injection molding method that can suppress the occurrence of burrs. Here, "injection molding" is not limited to spraying resin into a die by applying high pressure, but includes the concept of injecting resin into a die, and is understood in a broad sense to mean filling (injecting, pouring) resin into a die to mold. [Background technology]

[0002] A painting method in which paint or a coating agent is applied to the surface of a resin molded product is known as a decorative technique for resin molded products. In conventional painting methods, a resin molded product is generally molded in a mold, removed from the mold, and then a paint is applied to the surface by a spray method, a dipping method, or the like in a post-process. In response to this, in recent years, from the standpoint of shortening the painting process with the aim of saving energy and reducing the environmental impact, and reducing painting costs, a technique for painting resin molded products inside a mold has become known. In other words, after the resin molded product is injection-molded inside a mold, paint is injected between the surface of the resin molded product and the cavity surface of the mold, either within the same mold or within the molding cycle of the injection molding device, and the paint is cured inside the mold to become integrated with the resin molded product. This is called an in-mold coating method.

[0003] However, compared with the molten thermoplastic resin used in normal injection molding, the paint viscosity of two-liquid mixed thermosetting resin used for decorating resin molded products is very low. Therefore, in-mold painting, paint leaks into a small gap on the parting surface between the fixed mold and the movable mold and hardens there, which easily generates burrs on the peripheral edge of the painted resin molded product, resulting in poor yield of molded products and requiring extra deburring work after painting, which reduces productivity. In particular, if paint leaks onto the parting surface and hardens there, it may damage the mold, adhere to the molded product in the next cycle, or apply a load to the mold clamping, so the leaked and solidified paint must be removed, which lengthens the molding cycle and reduces the productivity of continuous molding.

[0004] Furthermore, in recent years, for example, from the standpoint of reducing the environmental load and cutting costs, various machines, devices, parts, etc. have been made smaller, lighter, and thinner. As a result, there is a demand for thinner, smaller molded products and molded products with complex shapes. Here, injection molding is preferably used for manufacturing molded products of complex shapes or precision molded products, but when injection molding is performed by melting pellets of thermoplastic resin, which is generally used in injection molding, the fluidity of the molten resin material is poor, making it difficult to reliably and uniformly fill every corner of a cavity corresponding to a thin-walled shape, etc., with the molten resin, which is prone to molding defects such as sink marks, making it difficult to handle high-precision molding to produce thin-walled or complex shapes. Therefore, when obtaining molded products of thin walls or complex shapes by injection molding, it becomes necessary to use a resin with good fluidity. For example, Patent Document 1 discloses a technique for producing a soft polyurethane molded article by two-liquid mixing injection molding, which does not require a resin pelletizing process. However, even when a two-liquid mixture is injected into a high-temperature mold as in Patent Document 1, there is a problem in that the resin is likely to leak outside the cavity during molding in the mold, resulting in the generation of burrs.

[0005] Here, for example, Patent Document 2 discloses a technique in which a mold for forming an in-mold coated product is used, the mold for forming the in-mold coated product includes a back surface forming mold, a front surface forming mold, and a coating film forming mold, the back surface forming mold and the front surface forming mold are closed to form a molding cavity for forming a molded product between the back surface forming mold and the front surface forming mold, a molding resin is filled into the molding cavity and cooled and solidified to form a molded product, the back surface forming mold and the front surface forming mold are opened while the back surface forming mold holds the molded product, the front surface forming mold facing the back surface forming mold are switched to a coating film forming mold, the back surface forming mold and the coating film forming mold that hold the molded product are closed, a coating cavity for coating the molded product with a thermosetting paint is formed between the molded product and the coating film forming mold, and the thermosetting paint is injected into the coating cavity and solidified, thereby integrally coating the molded product with a thermosetting paint layer. This technique can prevent resin and thermosetting paint from leaking out of the mold cavity even if the parting surface of the mold is a general flat surface that does not have a share edge structure.

[0006] [Patent Document 1] JP 2010-215820 A [Patent Document 2] JP 2009-101670 A Summary of the Invention [Problem to be solved by the invention]

[0007] However, in the technology of Patent Document 2, the sealing pressure that prevents the thermosetting paint from leaking to the outside is affected by the mold clamping force, mold internal pressure, product dimensions, eccentricity, etc., so it is uncertain and its effectiveness may be limited.

[0008] Therefore, an object of the present invention is to provide an injection molding die capable of suppressing the generation of burrs in injection molding of a two-component mixed thermosetting resin, a manufacturing method for a resin molded product, and an injection molding method. [Means for solving the problem]

[0009] The injection molding die of the invention of claim 1 is an injection molding die for molding a two-component mixed thermosetting resin, and comprises a fixed-side die having a fixed-side mold plate, a movable-side die having a movable-side mold plate facing the fixed-side mold plate, a flow path formed in the fixed-side die and / or the movable-side die through which the injected two-component mixed thermosetting resin flows, and a cavity formed between the fixed-side mold plate and the movable-side mold plate by clamping the fixed-side die and the movable-side die, into which the two-component mixed thermosetting resin that has passed through the flow path flows, and the surface roughness Rz of the parting surface between the fixed-side mold plate and the movable-side mold plate is 0.8 μm or less, preferably 0.6 μm or less, more preferably 0.4 μm or less, and even more preferably 0.2 μm or less.

[0010] The fixed mold is equipped with a fixed plate corresponding to one side of the resin molded product to be formed in the cavity, and is provided with a flow path through which the two-component mixed thermosetting resin injected from the nozzle of the resin injection machine passes. In addition, the movable side mold is arranged opposite the fixed side mold and is the side that reciprocates between opening and closing in the injection molding mold, and is equipped with a movable side mold plate that is on the opposite side to the fixed side mold plate and corresponds to the other side of the resin molded product.

[0011] The parting surface (PL surface) is a dividing surface where the fixed side mold plate and the movable side mold plate face each other, that is, a mating surface where the fixed side mold plate and the movable side mold plate come into contact when the mold is clamped, and has a surface roughness Rz of 0.8 μm or less, preferably 0.6 μm or less, more preferably 0.4 μm or less, and further preferably 0.2 μm or less. From the viewpoint of surface treatment technology, the lower limit is 0.05 μm.

[0012] In addition, in the injection molding die of the invention according to claim 2, the flow passage has a pin gate. The pin gate (also called a pinpoint gate) is the passage through which the two-component mixed thermosetting resin passes, and is the smallest (narrowest) diameter part through which the resin is injected into the cavity. It is designed to enable the resin molded product formed in the cavity to be separated from the sprue, runner, and the sprue / runner side resin that has thermally hardened within the pin gate when the mold is opened.

[0013] The flow path of the injection molding die of the invention of claim 3 is formed from a primary sprue extending in the axial direction into which the two-component mixed thermosetting resin is injected, a runner continuing from the primary sprue and formed in a direction approximately perpendicular to the primary sprue, a secondary sprue continuing from the runner and extending in a direction parallel to the primary sprue, and a pin gate connecting the secondary sprue to the cavity.

[0014] The primary sprue (sometimes called a vertical runner) is the flow path through which the resin injected into the mold first flows into the mold and sends the resin to the runner, and is arranged in the same axial direction as the resin injector. The runner is continuous with the primary sprue, and is generally provided branching out in a direction approximately perpendicular to the direction of the resin injection axis. The secondary sprue (sometimes called a vertical runner) is continuous with the runner and is provided parallel to the injection axis direction of the resin. The pin gate (also called a pinpoint gate) is a passage that connects the flow path of the secondary sprue to the cavity; it is the part of the passage through which the injected resin passes that has the smallest diameter (narrowest diameter) for injecting the resin into the cavity; it is designed to enable the resin molded product formed in the cavity to be separated from the sprue, runner, and sprue / runner resin formed in the pin gate when the mold is opened.

[0016] The fixed side mounting plate is for mounting to a fixed platen of an injection molding machine with bolts or the like. The runner stripper plate is disposed between the fixed side mounting plate and the fixed side mold plate, and serves to separate the sprue / runner resin, which is a two-component mixed thermosetting resin that has been heat-cured in the flow passage consisting of the sprue, runner, and pin gate of the fixed side mold, from the resin molded product, which is a two-component mixed thermosetting resin that has been heat-cured in the cavity, when the mold is opened.

[0017] The runner of the fixed side die of the injection molding die of the invention of claim 5 is formed between the fixed side mold plate and the runner stripper plate, and the surface roughness Rz of the parting surfaces of the fixed side mold plate and the runner stripper plate is 0.8 μm or less, preferably 0.6 μm or less, more preferably 0.4 μm or less, and even more preferably 0.2 μm or less. The parting surface is the opposing surface of the fixed side mold plate and the runner stripper plate, which is the mating surface where the fixed side mold plate and the runner stripper plate come into contact when the molds are closed by clamping, and has a surface roughness Rz of 0.8 μm or less, preferably 0.6 μm or less, more preferably 0.4 μm or less, and further preferably 0.2 μm or less. From the viewpoint of surface treatment technology, the lower limit is 0.05 μm.

[0018] The manufacturing method of a resin molded product of the invention of claim 6 includes a mold for injection molding, the mold being composed of a fixed mold having a fixed mold plate and a movable mold having a movable mold plate, and the surface roughness Rz of the parting surface between the fixed mold plate and the movable mold plate is 0.8 μm or less, preferably 0.6 μm or less, more preferably 0.4 μm or less, and even more preferably 0.2 μm or less, the mold including: a mold clamping step of clamping the fixed mold and the movable mold to form a cavity between the movable mold and the fixed mold; an injection step of injecting a two-component mixed thermosetting resin into the cavity; a molding step of molding the two-component mixed thermosetting resin filled in the cavity; and a mold opening step of opening the movable mold and the fixed mold and removing the resin molded product formed in the molding step.

[0019] The injection molding method of the invention of claim 7 comprises clamping the fixed-side mold and the movable-side mold of an injection molding die, the fixed-side mold and the movable-side mold having a fixed-side mold plate and a movable-side mold having a parting surface between the fixed-side mold plate and the movable-side mold plate having a surface roughness Rz of 0.8 μm or less, preferably 0.6 μm or less, more preferably 0.4 μm or less, and even more preferably 0.2 μm or less, to form a cavity between the fixed-side mold plate and the movable-side mold plate, and filling the cavity with a two-component mixed thermosetting resin to perform molding. It should be noted that the above numerical values ​​are approximate and not strict, and are, of course, approximate values ​​that include errors due to mold materials, measurements, etc., and do not deny the possibility of errors of several tens of percent. Effect of the Invention

[0020] According to the injection molding die of the invention of claim 1, the injection molding die for molding a two-component mixed thermosetting resin comprises a fixed side die having a fixed side mold plate, a movable side die having a movable side mold plate facing the fixed side mold plate, a flow path formed in the fixed side die and / or the movable side die through which the injected two-component mixed thermosetting resin flows, and a cavity formed between the fixed side mold plate and the movable side mold plate by clamping the fixed side die and the movable side die, into which the two-component mixed thermosetting resin that has passed through the flow path flows, and the surface roughness Rz of the parting surface between the fixed side mold plate and the movable side mold plate is 0.8 μm or less, preferably 0.6 μm or less, more preferably 0.4 μm or less, and even more preferably 0.2 μm or less. Therefore, even when a low-viscosity two-component thermosetting resin is filled into the cavity, the metal-to-metal touch provided by the highly-precisely smooth surface of the parting surface prevents leakage (penetration) into the mating surfaces of the fixed side mold plate and the movable side mold plate, thereby preventing the occurrence of burrs.

[0021] According to the injection molding die of the invention of claim 2, since the flow path has a pin gate, by using a pin gate as the gate for injecting resin into the cavity, restrictions on the gate position can be reduced, and the degree of freedom in designing the gate position that is less likely to cause molding defects such as sink marks and weld lines can be increased according to the shape, specifications, use, and other aspects of the target resin molded product. Therefore, in addition to the effect of claim 1, the degree of freedom in setting the gate position that is less likely to cause molding defects according to the dimensions, shape, specifications, use, and design of the resin molded product can be increased.

[0022] According to the injection molding die of the invention of claim 3, the flow path is formed from a primary sprue extending in the axial direction into which the two-component mixed thermosetting resin is injected, a runner continuing from the primary sprue and formed in a direction approximately perpendicular to the primary sprue, a secondary sprue continuing from the runner and extending in a direction parallel to the primary sprue, and a pin gate connecting the secondary sprue and the cavity.

[0023] Therefore, by using a pin gate as the gate through which resin is injected into the cavity, restrictions on the gate position can be reduced, and design freedom can be increased to a gate position that is less likely to cause molding defects such as sink marks and weld lines, depending on the shape, specifications, and application of the desired resin molded product. Furthermore, with a pin gate, the resin molded product can be separated from the sprue / runner side resin by cutting the gate when the fixed and movable molds are opened, eliminating the need for gate processing after removing the resin molded product, thereby increasing the productivity of resin molded products. Therefore, in addition to the effect of claim 1, it is possible to increase the freedom to set the gate position so that it is less likely to cause molding defects, in accordance with the dimensions, shape, specifications, applications, designs, etc. of the resin molded product.

[0024] According to the injection molding die of the invention of claim 4, the fixed side die has a runner stripper plate on the side opposite to the cavity forming side of the fixed side mold plate, and also has a fixed side mounting plate on the side of the runner stripper plate opposite to the fixed side mold plate side, and when the fixed side die and the movable side die are opened, the space between the movable side mold plate and the fixed side mold plate, and the space between the fixed side mold plate and the runner stripper plate are opened, whereby a resin molded product molded by thermally curing the two-component mixed thermosetting resin in the cavity is separated from the sprue / runner resin formed by thermally curing the two-component mixed thermosetting resin in the flow path of the fixed side die. In this way, the device has a three-plate structure consisting of a runner stripper plate, a fixed side mold plate, and a movable side mold plate, and when the mold is opened, the resin molded product and the sprue / runner resin are separated and removed by gate cutting, which eliminates the need for gate processing after the resin molded product is removed, and the sprue / runner resin is also released from the mold, thereby achieving the effect recited in claim 3 and further improving the productivity of resin molded products.

[0025] According to the injection molding die of the invention of claim 5, the runner of the fixed die is formed between the fixed mold plate and the runner stripper plate, and the surface roughness Rz of the parting surfaces of the fixed mold plate and the runner stripper plate is set to 0.8 μm or less, preferably 0.6 μm or less, more preferably 0.4 μm or less, and even more preferably 0.2 μm or less, so that even when a two-component mixed type thermosetting resin with low viscosity passes through the runner, leakage (penetration) of the two-component mixed type thermosetting resin to the parting surfaces where the fixed mold plate and the runner stripper plate come into contact can be suppressed. Therefore, in addition to the effect of claim 4, the burden of removing the leaked excess resin can be reduced.

[0026] According to the manufacturing method of a resin molded product according to the invention of claim 6, in a mold clamping step, the fixed side mold and the movable side mold of an injection molding mold are composed of a fixed side mold with a fixed side mold plate and a movable side mold with a movable side mold plate, and the surface roughness Rz of the parting surface between the fixed side mold plate and the movable side mold plate is 0.8 μm or less, preferably 0.6 μm or less, more preferably 0.4 μm or less, and even more preferably 0.2 μm or less, and a cavity is formed between the movable side mold and the fixed side mold, in an injection injection step, a two-component mixed thermosetting resin is injected into the cavity, in a molding step, the two-component mixed thermosetting resin filled in the cavity is molded, in a mold opening step, the movable side mold and the fixed side mold are opened, and the resin molded product formed in the molding step is taken out.

[0027] Therefore, a low-viscosity two-component mixed thermosetting resin is filled into the cavity when the mold is closed, and since the parting surfaces are highly precisely smooth and metal-to-metal contact, even when the two-component mixed thermosetting resin is filled into the cavity, leakage (penetration) of the two-component mixed thermosetting resin into the mating surfaces of the fixed side mold plate and the movable side mold plate can be suppressed, and the occurrence of burrs can be suppressed.

[0028] According to the injection molding method of the invention of claim 7, the injection molding die comprises a fixed-side mold having a fixed-side mold plate and a movable-side mold having a movable-side mold plate, and the surface roughness Rz of the parting surface between the fixed-side mold plate and the movable-side mold plate is 0.8 μm or less, preferably 0.6 μm or less, more preferably 0.4 μm or less, and even more preferably 0.2 μm or less. The fixed-side mold and the movable-side mold plate of an injection molding die are clamped to form a cavity between the fixed-side mold plate and the movable-side mold plate, and a two-component mixed thermosetting resin is filled into the cavity to perform molding.

[0029] Therefore, a low-viscosity two-component mixed thermosetting resin is filled into the cavity when the mold is closed, and since the parting surfaces are highly precisely smooth and metal-to-metal contact, even when the two-component mixed thermosetting resin is filled into the cavity, leakage (penetration) of the two-component mixed thermosetting resin into the mating surfaces of the fixed side mold plate and the movable side mold plate can be suppressed, and the occurrence of burrs can be suppressed.

[0034] The painting fixed side mounting plate 11A is attached to a fixed platen (not shown) that is fixed on the base of the injection molding machine. A locating ring (not shown) for positioning that corresponds to an opening formed in the center of the fixed platen can be attached to this painting fixed side mounting plate 11A by tightening bolts or the like, and by aligning the locating ring, which has a hole formed in the center, with the opening in the center of the fixed platen, the nozzle N2 of the injection machine and the primary sprue 111 provided in the painting fixed side mold 100A can be precisely aligned.

The sprue bushing 119 has a substantially conical through hole with a large diameter formed in the direction in which the paint flows as a primary sprue 111, which is a resin flow path through which the paint injected from the nozzle N2 of the injection machine first flows into the painting mold 10A. The primary sprue 111 is provided coaxially with the direction in which the paint is injected. The sprue bushing 119 is inserted into the painting fixed side mounting plate 11A and the painting stripper plate 12A, and is attached and fixed to the painting fixed side mounting plate 11A with a fixing device such as a screw.

[0037] A runner 112, which is a resin flow passage communicating with the primary sprue 111, is provided between the paint stripper plate 12A and the paint fixed side template 13A in a direction approximately perpendicular to the length direction of the primary sprue 111. Further, the fixed coating template 13A is provided with a secondary sprue 113, which is a resin flow path communicating with the runner 112, in parallel with the paint injection direction. A pin gate (also called a pinpoint gate) 114 having a gate port formed on the cavity forming surface 310 of the painting fixed-side mold plate 13A is provided at the tip of the secondary sprue 113. This pin gate 114 is provided on the axis of the secondary sprue 113, is a portion having a smallest diameter in the resin flow path, has a gate port that opens on the cavity forming surface 310 of the painting fixed-side mold plate 13A, and communicates between the secondary sprue 113 and the painting cavity 400 in the mold-clamped state.

[0038] The secondary sprue 113 and the pin gate 114 at its tip usually have a substantially circular cross-sectional shape perpendicular to their axes, and the secondary sprue 113 has a shape in which the cross-sectional area tapers toward the tip side in the direction in which the paint flows, i.e., toward the pin gate 114 side. Preferably, the shape tapers gradually toward the tip side, and more preferably, the reduction rate of the cross-sectional area is greater near the tip than at the base side. Also, the pin gate 114 is preferably conical with a taper that tapers toward the gate opening at the gate tip, and the length of the gate land is preferably, for example, about 1 to 2 times the diameter of the gate opening at the gate tip. As a result, when the mold is opened, the resin 600A solidified on the sprues 111, 113 and the runner 112 does not remain on the sprues 111, 113 and the runner 112, and can be easily released from the sprues 111, 113 and the runner 112, and the cutting residue of the protruding gate can be kept small on the surface of the coated resin molded product 500. The opening shape at the tip of the pin gate 114 may be circular, elliptical, or flat. Such a shape can be formed by cutting and polishing with a rotating object such as a drill.

[0039] In Figures 9 to 15, a plurality of painting cavities 400 having an inner shape corresponding to the shape of the desired painted resin molded product 500 are formed between the fixed side painting mold plate 13A and the movable side mold plate 23, and runners 112 are provided branching off from the primary sprue 111 into two or more, and secondary sprues 113 and pin gates 114 are provided from each of the runners 112 to connect to one of the painting cavities 400, resulting in a multiple-cavity configuration.

[0040] In addition, in Figs. 9 to 15, the secondary sprue 113 and the pin gate 114 are formed as holes drilled in the fixed side painting template 13A, but in the case of implementing the present invention, the secondary sprue 113 and the pin gate 114 may be provided in the fixed side painting template 13A in such a manner that a sprue-gate bush in which the secondary sprue 113 and the pin gate 114 are formed separately from the fixed side painting template 13A is fitted into a bush insertion hole formed in the fixed side painting template 13A. In particular, when the gate opening is set to 1 mm or less, it is preferable to use a gate bush. With a gate bush, it is relatively easy to form a small gate opening with high accuracy by electroforming or electric discharge machining. The gate bush may be a combination of divided parts and inserted into a bush insertion hole formed in the fixed side painting template 13A.

[0041] As described above, the painting mold 10A of this embodiment 1 has a three-plate structure having a painting stripper plate 12A, a painting fixed side mold plate 13A, and a movable side mold plate 23. The painting fixed side mounting plate 11A and the painting stripper plate 12A have a primary sprue 111 arranged coaxially with the paint injection direction. A runner 112 is formed between the painting stripper plate 12A and the painting fixed side mold plate 13A, which is continuous with the primary sprue 111 and arranged approximately perpendicular to the primary sprue 111. The painting fixed side mold plate 13A has a secondary sprue 113 which is continuous with the runner 112 and arranged parallel to the paint injection direction. At the tip of the secondary sprue 113, a pin gate 114 is provided which forms a gate opening on the cavity forming surface 310 of the painting fixed side mold plate 13A. When the fixed side painting mold 100A and the movable side mold 200 are clamped, a painting cavity 400 is formed between the fixed side painting mold plate 13A and the movable side mold plate 23, and the pin gate 114 formed at the tip of the secondary sprue 113 in the fixed side painting mold plate 13A communicates with the cavity 400 via a gate opening provided in the cavity forming surface 310.

[0042] The painting fixed side mold 100A, which is composed of the painting fixed side mounting plate 11A, the painting stripper plate 12A, and the painting fixed side mold plate 13A, has a plurality of (e.g., four) support pins 161 fixed to the painting fixed side mounting plate 11A. The support pins 161 guide the sliding of the painting stripper plate 12A and the painting fixed side mold plate 13A. The support pins 161 are inserted into a plurality of (e.g., four) support pin bushes provided on each of the painting stripper plate 12A and the painting fixed side mold plate 13A, so that the painting stripper plate 12A and the painting fixed side mold plate 13A can slide freely relative to the painting fixed side mounting plate 11A. That is, the painting fixed-side attachment plate 11A, the painting stripper plate 12A, and the painting fixed-side template 13A are connected by support pins 161, and the painting stripper plate 12A and the painting fixed-side template 13A are freely slidable using the support pins 161 as guides. Furthermore, the support pins 161 can also be freely inserted into bushes (through holes) provided in the movable-side template 23 and the spacer block 24, and the movable-side template 23 is also freely slidable using the support pins 161 as a guide.

[0043] A runner lock pin 163 (also called a daruma pin) is attached and fixed to the paint fixed side mounting plate 11A, which penetrates the paint stripper plate 12A and reaches the runner 112. This runner lock pin 163 is composed of a head portion inserted into a pin hole formed in the paint fixed side mounting plate 11A, a shaft portion which extends in the axial direction from the head portion to penetrate the paint stripper plate 12A and has a smaller diameter than the head portion, and a runner lock portion which is formed in an undercut shape at the tip portion of the shaft portion and protrudes into the runner 112 formed between the paint fixed side template 13A and the paint stripper plate 12A. The runner lock pin 163 has an undercut-shaped runner lock portion, which is the tip portion that reaches the runner 112, and is therefore capable of locking the runner 112, so that when the paint stationary side mold plate 13A and the paint stripper plate 12A are opened, the sprue / runner resin 600A can be attached to the paint stripper plate 12A and separated from the resin molded product 500B. The paint injected into the paint mold 10A has low viscosity, so the runner lock portion is unlikely to break even if it is not machined into a complex shape that is unlikely to break. Therefore, the runner lock pin 163 can be an inexpensive part.

[0044] Furthermore, one or more puller bolts 164 are inserted into the paint stripper plate 12A and the paint fixed-side mold plate 13A. The puller bolts 164 are screwed into stop bolts 165 attached to the paint fixed-side mounting plate 11A and fixed to the runner stripper plate 12A, so as to limit the mold opening stroke between the paint fixed-side mold plate 13A and the paint stripper plate 12A. The puller bolt 164 is generally provided with a spring (not shown) so that when the mold is opened, the gap between the painting fixed side mold plate 13A and the painting stripper plate 12A is opened first by the repulsive force of the spring, and the portion of the pin gate 114 between the painted resin molded product 500 and the sprue / runner resin 600A is cut first. In this way, in the painting mold 10A of this embodiment 1, due to the pin gate structure, the gate is not cut when the painted resin molded product 500 is ejected, but the gate of the painted resin molded product 500 is cut when the mold is opened.

[0045] The movable side mold 200, which is opposed to the fixed side mold 100A for painting, is the side that is attached to the movable platen (not shown) of the mold clamping device of the injection molding apparatus, and is capable of moving forward and backward freely relative to the fixed side mold 100A for painting, and is composed of a movable side mounting plate 21, a spacer block 24, an ejector plate 25, ejector pins 26, a movable side receiving plate 29, a movable side mold plate 23, etc.

[0046] The movable side mounting plate 21 is connected to a movable platen of an injection molding machine, and has an ejector hole in the center through which an ejector rod 225 passes. The spacer block 24 is fixedly attached to the movable mounting plate 21 between the movable mounting plate 21 and the movable receiving plate 29, and forms a space for the ejection action by the ejector plate 25 and the ejector pins 26.

[0047] The ejector plate 25 is disposed in the space defined by the spacer block 24 arranged between the movable side mounting plate 21 and the movable side receiving plate 29, and moves forward and backward toward the movable side receiving plate 29 and the movable side mold plate 23. The ejector pin 26 is fixed to the ejector plate 25 and protrudes from the ejector plate 25. One or more ejector pins 26 are provided and are inserted into holes drilled through the movable-side receiving plate 29 and the movable-side mold plate 23 and the insert 23a fitted therein, so that the ejector rod 225 pushes out (advances) the ejector plate 25 to eject the coated resin molded product 500 remaining on the parting surface 300 of the movable-side mold plate 23.

[0048] Further, the movable side receiving plate (pressure receiving plate) 29 is fixed to the spacer block 24, and a guide pin 166 and the like are attached and fixed thereto. The movable-side mold plate 23 is fixed to the front side of the movable-side receiving plate 29, and forms a coating cavity 400 between it and the fixed-side coating mold plate 13A. The movable-side mold plate 23 is fixed to the movable-side mounting plate 21, which is attached to the movable platen of the injection molding device, via a spacer block 24 and the movable-side receiving plate 29. The surface of the movable-side mold plate 23 that faces the fixed-side coating mold plate 13A is a parting surface 300. In addition, in Figures 1 to 15, a convex nest 23a is fitted into the movable-side mold plate 23, and the cavity forming surface 310 is convex.

[0049] A return pin 27 is inserted through the movable-side mold plate 23, and one end of the return pin 27 is fixed to the ejector plate 25. A return spring 28 that urges the ejector plate 25 in a backward direction is attached around the return pin 27, and the repulsive force of the return spring 28 allows the ejector plate 25 to be separated from the movable-side receiving plate 29 and the movable-side mold plate 23 side and to return to its original position after the ejector pin 26 ejects the coated resin molded product 500. That is, the ejection mechanism consisting of the ejector plate 25, ejector pin 26, return pin 27, etc., is capable of ejecting the coated resin molded product 500 remaining on the cavity forming surface 310 on the movable mold 200 side.

[0050] The fixed side painting mold 100A and the movable side mold 200 are aligned by having multiple (e.g., four) guide pins 166 fixed to the movable side receiving plate 29 of the movable side mold 200 fitted into multiple guide bushes (guide bearings) 169 provided on the fixed side painting plate 13A of the fixed side painting mold 100A during mold clamping, thereby guiding the sliding. The painting fixed metal mold 100A and the movable metal mold 200 are connected by a tension link 171. The tension link 171 has a long hole extending in its longitudinal direction, and limits the mold opening stroke between the painting fixed metal mold plate 13A and the movable metal mold plate 23 when the painting fixed metal mold 100A and the movable metal mold 200 are opened from the clamped state.

[0051] The fixed paint mold 100A and the movable mold 200 configured in this manner are opposed to each other to form the in-mold paint mold 10A, and when the fixed paint mold 100A and the movable mold 200 are clamped together, a paint cavity 400 corresponding to the shape of the painted resin molded product 500 is formed between the fixed paint mold 100A and the movable mold 200. At this time, in the present embodiment 1, the painting fixed metal mold 100A faces the movable metal mold 200, which has the resin molded product 500B held in advance on the cavity forming surface 310, and the molds are clamped. Then, in the clamped state, a clearance 400C is formed between the resin molded product 500B and the painting fixed metal plate 13A in the painting cavity 400 in which the resin molded product 500B is placed between the painting fixed metal mold 100A and the movable metal mold 200, and paint is filled into the clearance 400C, so that the surface of the resin molded product 500B is coated with the paint and painted. The shape of the cavity wall surface of the painting fixing template 13A of the painting fixed metal mold 100A is appropriately set according to the desired pattern and thickness of the paint.

[0052] Here, as a result of intensive experimental research, the inventors have found that by setting the surface roughness Rz of the parting surface 300, which is the separation surface between the painting fixed side template 13A of the painting fixed side die 100A and the movable side template 23 of the movable side die 200 that constitute the painting die 10A, to 0.8 μm or less, preferably 0.6 μm or less, more preferably 0.4 μm or less, and even more preferably 0.2 μm or less, even when a two-component mixed thermosetting resin paint is filled into the clearance 400C of the painting cavity 400 and poured onto the surface of the resin molded product 500B, the two-component mixed thermosetting resin paint is prevented from leaking onto the parting surface 300, which is the mating surface (contact surface) of the painting fixed side template 13A and the movable side template 23, and the occurrence of burrs is prevented.

[0053] This is believed to be because the surface roughness Rz of the parting surface 300 between the fixed-side painting template 13A and the movable-side template 23 is 0.8 μm or less, preferably 0.6 μm or less, more preferably 0.4 μm or less, and even more preferably 0.2 μm or less. Since the parting surface 300 between the fixed-side painting template 13 and the movable-side template 23 is a highly accurate smooth surface, a high degree of adhesion is obtained between the parting surface 300 between the fixed-side painting template 13 and the movable-side template 23, that is, the parting surface 300 between the fixed-side painting template 13 and the movable-side template 23 is in metal-to-metal contact, and further, the wettability of the paint to the highly accurate smooth surface is low. Therefore, it is believed that paint is less likely to leak onto the parting surface 300 between the fixed-side painting template 13A and the movable-side template 23, and the occurrence of burrs is suppressed.

[0054] In addition, since the paint is a two-component curing thermosetting resin, the paint can be sufficiently spread in the clearance 400C between the resin molded product 500B and the cavity forming surface 310. Naturally, since a high injection pressure is not required, paint leakage is also prevented.

[0055] In addition, in the painting mold 10A of this embodiment 1, the runner 112 of the painting fixed side mold 100A is formed between the painting fixed side template 13A and the painting stripper plate 12A, and the surface roughness Rz of the parting surface 700 of the painting fixed side template 13A and the painting stripper plate 12A is also 0.8 μm or less, preferably 0.6 μm or less, more preferably 0.4 μm or less, and even more preferably 0.2 μm or less. Therefore, even when paint made of a two-component thermosetting resin with low viscosity passes through the runner 112, it is possible to prevent the paint from leaking (entering) into the mating surface where the painting fixed side template 13A and the painting stripper plate 12A come into contact at the dividing surface 700 of the painting fixed side template 13A and the painting stripper plate 12. This reduces the burden of discharging the leaked excess paint, improves the molding cycle, and increases the productivity of the painted resin molded product 500.

[0056] The surface roughness Rz of the parting surface 300, which is the parting surface between the fixed side painting mold plate 13A of the fixed side painting mold 100A and the movable side mold plate 23 of the movable side mold 200, is 0.8 μm or less, preferably 0.6 μm or less, more preferably 0.4 μm or less, and even more preferably 0.2 μm or less. The surface roughness of the parting surface 700 of the fixed side painting mold plate 13A and the stripper plate 12A is 0.8 μm or less, preferably 0.6 μm or less, more preferably 0.4 μm or less, and even more preferably 0.2 μm or less. For example, surfaces of m or less are made to have a mirror-like finish by improving the surface precision through surface treatments such as sandblasting of the hard base material used as the mold material, polishing with a grindstone, sandpaper, diamond paste, etc., plasma nitriding, plating with hard chrome, electroless nickel, etc., anodizing, resin coating such as fluororesin, ceramic coating, and hardening / coating treatments such as micro shot peening (for example, CVD, PVD, DLC, TIN, etc.). The surface roughness was measured using a laser microscope (Surfcom NEX140DX, manufactured by Tokyo Seimitsu Co., Ltd.) and calculated as the maximum height roughness (Rz) in accordance with JIS B 0601:2001.

[0057] In the present embodiment 1, a two-liquid mixed type thermosetting resin is used as the paint applied to the surface of the resin molded product 500B in the fixed side coating mold 100A. The two-liquid mixed type thermosetting resin is cured by a polymerization reaction caused by heat, and examples of such a two-liquid mixed type thermosetting resin include silicone resin, phenolic resin, epoxy resin, polyurethane resin, polyimide resin, vinyl resin, alkyd resin, melamine resin, urea resin, and unsaturated polyester resin. Such a two-liquid mixed type thermosetting resin is mixed with a base material (first liquid) containing a thermosetting resin and a curing agent (second liquid) containing a polymerization initiator, and is injected into the fixed side coating mold 100A from the nozzle N2 of the injection machine. The first liquid containing a thermosetting resin and the second liquid containing a polymerization initiator may contain additives such as pigments, ceramics, metals, fibers (carbon fibers, glass fibers, cellulose fibers, aramid fibers, etc.), wax, flame retardants, antioxidants, and heat stabilizers. In addition, since the first and second liquids of the two-liquid mixed thermosetting resin undergo a gradual polymerization reaction even at room temperature when mixed, it is usually preferable to mix them just before injection into the coating mold 10A. Such two-liquid mixed thermosetting resin has good room temperature stability until the main agent is mixed with the curing agent, and has excellent storage properties. In addition, the two-liquid mixed thermosetting resin is cured by a radical reaction, forming a three-dimensional network structure to become a coating film, and the coating film 500A formed by curing the two-liquid mixed thermosetting resin has a three-dimensional network structure and is excellent in heat resistance and solvent resistance.

[0058] In the present embodiment 1, the two-liquid mixed type thermosetting resin, which is the paint (coating agent) that coats the resin molded product 500B in the fixed side coating mold 100A, has a resin viscosity of, for example, 4×10 at 50° C. to 90° C. when injected from the resin injection nozzle N2 of the paint injection machine. 2 (mPa s) or less, preferably 8×10 1 (mPa s) or less, more preferably 4×10 1 (mPa s) or less. When melting pellets of thermoplastic resin generally used in injection molding and filling the clearance 400C, it is necessary to make the gate large to make the resin easy to flow, but if it is a resin with a certain low viscosity, it has good fluidity, and even with the pin gate 114 with a small gate diameter, the flow of the resin can be ensured and it is possible to spread to every corner of the thin clearance 400C. That is, even in paint molding with a thin thickness or a complex shape, filling defects can be prevented. In addition, such a two-liquid mixed reaction type thermosetting resin can suppress expansion and contraction due to temperature changes more than thermoplastic resins, so that sink defects can be prevented even in paint molding with a thick wall (for example, a cured thickness of 1 mm to 6 mm) or a complex shape. And, since the paint is injected in a clamped state and the paint is less likely to expand and contract, curing inhibition due to backflow of air is less likely to occur. In addition, since the fluidity is good, it is less likely to cause weld lines even in multi-point gates.

[0059] The two-liquid mixed thermosetting resin preferably has a viscosity of 1.15×10 at 70° C. or higher. 2 (mPa s), and its viscosity at 30°C or less is 6×10 2 (mPa s) or less, and more preferably 1×10 2 (mPa s) or less, and more preferably 8×10 1 (mPa·s) or less. For example, polyurethane or silicone is used. More preferably, it is a two-liquid mixture type thermosetting resin that cures at room temperature. For your information, the viscosity of general synthetic resins (thermoplastic resins) at 260°C is 1.0 x 10 5 ~1.0×10 6 At 75°C, the viscosity of polyurethane is 1.0 (mPa s), while the viscosity of water at 20°C is 1.0 (mPa s), so the viscosity of two-liquid mixed polyurethane (75°C) is close to that of water. Generally speaking, the viscosity of polyurethane (75°C) is 1,000 to 10,000 times lower than that of general synthetic resins, and is close to that of water. With the viscosity of general synthetic resins at a temperature of 260°C, the molding temperature must be increased, requiring heat-resistant molds. In contrast, preferably, the viscosity is 1.15×10 at 70° C. or higher. 2 (mPa s), and has a viscosity of 6×10 below 30°C. 2 (mPa s) or less, and more preferably 1×10 2 (mPa s) or less, and more preferably 8×10 1 When a two-component mixed thermosetting resin with a viscosity of less than (mPa·s) is injected, it is sufficient to heat it to the curing temperature, so mold and energy costs can be reduced and the injection molding equipment is easy to manage.

[0060] For example, when polyurethane is used as the two-component mixed thermosetting resin, the main component polyol B (Puroclear 3351 IT) and the curing agent isocyanate A (Puronate 960 / 1) are mixed and injected into the coating mold 10A. That is, the viscosity of the two-liquid mixture of isocyanate A and polyol B at 70°C to 90°C is 1.15 x 10 2 (mPa s), and its viscosity at 30°C or less is 6×10 2 (mPa s) or less, more preferably 1×10 2 (mPa s) or less, and more preferably 8×10 1 (mPa·s) or less. In the case of a two-liquid mixture type thermosetting resin of isocyanate A and polyol B, the viscosity weakens at 60 to 90°C, and a relatively low viscosity is stable in the range of 60 to 90°C, so when injected in this temperature range, the polyurethane resin can be filled into every corner even in the clearance 400C corresponding to a thin thickness or complex shape due to its high fluidity. In particular, a coating of a polymer made of a copolymer having such a urethane bond has good adhesion to the resin molded product 500B made of a thermoplastic resin, and has moderate elongation, hardness, and elasticity, making it suitable as the coating film 500A.

[0061] Next, a two-color injection molding die 1 including an in-mold painting die 100A according to the first embodiment will be described with reference to FIGS. As shown in FIG. 1, the two-color molding die 1 for injection molding in this embodiment 1 comprises a fixed side die for molded products (primary fixed side die) 100B, a fixed side die for painting (secondary fixed side die) 100A, and a movable side die 200, with the fixed side die for molded products 100B and the movable side die 200 constituting the die for molded products 10B, and as described above, the fixed side die for painting 100A and the movable side die 200 constituting the die for in-mold painting (die for coating molded products) 10A.

[0062] As shown in Figures 1 to 8, the fixed side mold for molded products (primary fixed side mold) 100B of this embodiment 1, like the above-mentioned fixed side mold for painting (secondary fixed side mold) 100A, is composed of a fixed side mounting plate for molded products 11B, a runner stripper plate for molded products 12B (hereinafter sometimes simply referred to as ``stripper plate for molded products 12B'') and a fixed side mold plate for molded products (also called a cavity plate, fixed side main plate, or female mold) 13B on the side fixed to the injection molding apparatus.

[0063] In the fixed mold for molded products 100B, similarly to the above-mentioned fixed mold for painting 100A, a primary sprue 111 is provided on the fixed attachment plate for molded products 11B and the stripper plate for molded products 12B by a sprue bushing 119 that penetrates and is attached thereto. In addition, a runner 112, which is a resin flow path that communicates with the primary sprue 111, is provided between the fixed attachment plate for molded products 11B and the stripper plate for molded products 12B in a direction approximately perpendicular to the primary sprue 111. Furthermore, the fixed mold plate 13B for molded product has a secondary sprue 113, which is a resin flow path communicating with the runner 112, provided parallel to the resin injection direction, and a pin gate 114 is provided at the tip of the secondary sprue 113, the pin gate 114 having a gate opening in the cavity forming surface 310. The fixed mold plate 13B for molded product has support pins 161, runner lock pins 163, guide pins 166, puller bolts 164, stop bolts 165, tension links 171, etc., which are similar to those of the fixed mold plate 100A for coating described above, and therefore detailed description thereof will be omitted here.

[0064] That is, since the stationary mold for molded product 100B also has a pin gate structure, the resin molded product 500B is gate cut when the molds are opened. This fixed mold for molded product 100B is moved by a drive mechanism (not shown) so as to face the movable mold plate 23 of the movable mold 200, and when the molds are clamped, a plurality of molded product cavities 800 having an inner shape corresponding to the shape of the desired resin molded product 500B are formed between the movable mold plate 23 and the fixed mold plate for molded product 13A. In addition, in Fig. 1 to Fig. 8, the fixed mold for molded product 100B also has runners 112 branching from a primary sprue 111 into two or more, and secondary sprues 113 and pin gates 114 communicating with one molded product cavity 800 from each of the runners 112 are provided, making it a multiple-cavity type.

[0065] In this way, the fixed mold for molded products 100B, which has the same configuration as the fixed mold for painting 100A, faces the movable mold for molded products 200 described above to form the mold for molded products 10B, and by clamping the fixed mold for molded products 100B and the movable mold for molded products 200, a cavity for molded products 800 corresponding to the shape of the resin molded product 500B is formed between the fixed mold for molded products 100B and the movable mold for molded products 200. In addition, the fixed side mold plate 13B for molded products has a different shape from the fixed side mold plate 13A for painting. For example, the cavity 800 for molded products formed between the fixed side mold plate 13B for molded products of the fixed metal mold 100B for molded products and the movable side mold plate 23 of the movable side metal mold 200 is smaller than the cavity 400 for painting formed between the fixed side mold plate 13A for painting of the fixed metal mold 100A for painting and the movable side mold plate 23 of the movable side metal mold 200.

[0066] The resin for forming the resin molded product 500B with the molded product mold 10B composed of the fixed mold for molded products 100B and the movable mold 200 is set according to the product application of the coated resin molded product 500, and for example, a normal thermoplastic injection molding resin or engineering plastic can be used, and although there is no particular limitation, it is preferable to use one that is easy to mold. Specifically, acrylonitrile butadiene styrene resin (ABS resin), polyethylene resin, polyester resin, polyamide resin, polypropylene resin, polyethylene terephthalate resin, polybutylene terephthalate resin, polycarbonate resin, polyolefin resin (e.g., ethylene vinyl acetate polymer, etc.), polyvinyl chloride resin, polyvinylidene chloride resin, polyimide resin, polyarylate resin, polyetherimide resin, etc. are used. In general, the viscosity of the molten resin forming the resin molded product 500B is higher than the viscosity of a paint made of a thermosetting resin. In addition, a thermosetting resin paint that has good compatibility and adhesion with the resin of the resin molded product 500B is preferably used.

[0067] An injection molding apparatus having a two-color molding mold 1 equipped with the fixed side mold for molded products 100B, the fixed side mold for painting 100A, and the movable side mold 200 is equipped with a drive mechanism (switching mechanism) not shown in the figure for switching the fixed side mold to be opposed to the movable side mold 200, and the drive mechanism switches the fixed side mold to be opposed to the movable side mold 200 to the fixed side mold for molded products 100B or the fixed side mold for painting 100A. As a driving mechanism for switching between the fixed side mold for molded products 100B and the fixed side mold for painting 100A, for example, the movable side mold 200 can be fixed to a movable platen of an injection molding device or a rotating platen attached to the movable platen, and the fixed side mold that faces the movable side mold 200 can be switched between the fixed side mold for molded products 100B and the fixed side mold for painting 100A by rotating the movable platen or the rotating platen attached to the movable platen. Alternatively, the fixed side mold that faces the movable side mold 200 can be switched by fixing the fixed side mold for molded products 100B and the fixed side mold for painting 100A to the movable platen of an injection molding device or a rotating platen attached to the movable platen, and rotating the movable platen or the rotating platen attached to the movable platen.

[0068] The injection molding device having the two-color molding die 1 equipped with the fixed die 100B for molded products, the fixed die 100A for painting, and the movable die 200 has a die temperature adjustment mechanism (not shown). The medium for adjusting the temperature of the die in the die temperature adjustment mechanism may be water or oil, or a heater may be used, and it is sufficient if the temperature can be set to a temperature at which the resin for molded products filled in the cavity 800 for molded products between the fixed die 100B for molded products and the movable die 200 for molded products is solidified, or a temperature at which the paint of two-liquid mixed type thermosetting resin flowing on the surface of the resin molded product 500B is hardened within a predetermined time (for example, within a few seconds). Moreover, an injection molding apparatus equipped with the two-color molding die 1 has a clamping mechanism for opening and closing the two-color molding die 1. As this clamping mechanism, for example, a toggle-type clamping mechanism or a direct pressure-type clamping mechanism using a hydraulic cylinder or an electromagnetic cylinder can be used.

[0069] Next, a method for producing a coated resin molded product 500 using a two-color molding die 1 including such a molded product fixed die 100B, a painting fixed die 100A, and a movable die 200 will be described. First, the fixed side mold for molded product 100B is placed opposite the movable side mold 200, the movable side mold 200 and the fixed side mold for molded product 100B are clamped together, and a resin for molded product made of a thermoplastic resin or the like is injected into the molded product to form the resin molded product 500B. The molded product formation process is then carried out in which the resin for molded product made within the movable side mold 200 and the fixed side mold for molded product 100B is molded to form the resin molded product 500B. Thereafter, the fixed mold 100B for molded products and the movable mold 200 are opened, the fixed mold facing the movable mold 200 with the resin molded product 500B attached thereto is switched from the fixed mold 100B for molded products to the fixed mold 100A for painting, the movable mold 200 and the fixed mold 100A for painting are clamped, and the paint is injected thereto to coat the surface of the resin molded product 500B in the movable mold 200 and the fixed mold 100A for painting with paint made of a two-component thermosetting resin, and an in-mold painting process is performed to form a coating film 500A made of a two-component thermosetting resin on the surface of the resin molded product 500B. As a result, the resin molded product 500B is painted, and a coated resin molded product 500 covered with the coating film 500A is obtained.

[0070] In this embodiment 1, an example will be described in which molten thermoplastic resin is injected toward the cavity 800 for a molded product formed by clamping the movable side metal mold 200 and the fixed side metal mold for molded product 100B to mold a resin molded product 500B made of thermoplastic resin, and then the movable side metal mold 200 and the fixed side metal mold for molded product 100B are opened, and then the movable side metal mold 200 and the fixed side metal mold for painting 100A in which the resin molded product 500B is held are clamped, paint made of a two-component mixed type thermosetting resin is injected toward the cavity for painting 400 in which the resin molded product 500B is placed, and the surface of the resin molded product 500B made of thermoplastic resin is painted with the paint made of the two-component mixed type thermosetting resin, and the movable side metal mold 200 and the fixed side metal mold for painting 100A are opened to remove the painted resin molded product 500.

[0071] The molded product formation process includes a primary mold clamping process in which the fixed side mold for molded product 100B is opposed to the movable side mold 200 and clamps the movable side mold 200 and the fixed side mold for molded product 100B together, an injection process in which thermoplastic resin is injected into the cavity for molded product 800 formed by clamping the movable side mold 200 and the fixed side mold for molding 100B, a molding process in which the movable side mold 200 and the fixed side mold for molded product 100B are cooled and the thermoplastic resin filled in the cavity for molded product 800 is molded into a resin molded product 500B, and a primary mold opening process in which the movable side mold 200 and the fixed side mold for molded product 100B are opened.

[0072] The in-mold painting process also includes a switching process of switching the fixed side mold, which faces the movable side mold 200 holding the resin molded product 500B, from the fixed side mold for molded product 100B to the fixed side mold for painting 100A; a secondary mold clamping process of clamping the movable side mold 200 holding the resin molded product 500B and the fixed side mold for painting 100A; an injection process of injecting paint made of a two-liquid mixed reaction type thermosetting resin into the painting cavity 400 formed by clamping the movable side mold 200 and the fixed side mold for painting 100A and in which the resin molded product 500B is arranged; a curing process of curing the paint filled in the clearance 400C between the resin molded product 500B and the cavity forming surface 310 in the painting cavity 400; and a secondary mold opening process of opening the movable side mold 200 and the fixed side mold for painting 100A and removing the painted resin molded product 500.

[0073] The detailed explanation will be given below. First, in the first mold clamping process, the movable side mold plate 23 of the movable side mold 200 is moved so as to face the fixed side mold plate 13B for molded products of the fixed side mold 100B for molded products, and the movable side mold 200 and the fixed side mold 100B for molded products are clamped so as to face each other. 3, the movable mold plate 23 of the movable mold 200 is brought into contact with the fixed mold plate 13B of the fixed mold 100B, the stripper plate 12B is brought into contact with the fixed mold plate 13B on the opposite side to the contact side with the movable mold plate 23, and the fixed attachment plate 11B is brought into contact with the stripper plate 12B on the opposite side to the contact side with the fixed mold plate 13B. As a result, a runner 112 is formed between the stripper plate 12B and the fixed mold plate 13B as a resin passage, and the parting surface 300 between the fixed mold plate 13B and the movable mold plate 23 is closed to form a cavity 800 for the resin molded product 500B.

[0074] In this state, in the injection process, molten resin is injected at a predetermined injection pressure (e.g., 30 MPa or more) from a nozzle N1 provided at the tip of a cylinder of an injector set in a locating ring (not shown) attached to the molded product fixed side mounting plate 11B. As shown in FIG. 4, the injected molten resin is forced into the primary sprue 111 of the sprue bushing 119 provided on the molded product fixed side mounting plate 11B of the molded product fixed side die 100B and the molded product stripper plate 12B. The mixture flows from the primary sprue 11 into a runner 112 provided between the stripper plate 12B for the molded product and the fixed side mold plate 13B for molding, and then flows from the runner 112 into a secondary sprue 113 provided on the fixed side mold plate 13B for the molded product, passes through a pin gate 114 provided at its tip, and is filled into the cavity 800 for the molded product between the fixed side mold plate 13B for the molded product and the movable side mold plate 23 through a pin gate opening formed on the cavity forming surface 310 of the fixed side mold plate 13B for the molded product. Then, in the molding process, a predetermined pressure is applied to the molten resin filled in the cavity 800 for the molded product, and the molten resin is cooled and solidified to form the resin molded product 500B.

[0075] Thereafter, in a primary mold opening process, the movable mold 200 and the fixed mold for molded product 100B are opened. The direction of clamping and opening the movable mold 200 and the fixed mold for molded product 100B is the same as the direction of injection of the molten resin.

[0076] In this mold opening process, as shown in FIG. 5, when the movable platen of the mold clamping device (not shown) moves to move the movable side mold 200 in a direction away from the fixed side mounting plate 11B for molded product, the coil spring (not shown) is compressed and inserted in the mold clamped state around the puller bolt 164 arranged on the fixed side mold plate 13B for molded product and the stripper plate 12B for molded product as an axis, and is biased in the direction of opening the fixed side mold plate 13B for molded product and the stripper plate 12B for molded product. As a result, due to the repulsive force of the coil spring, the movable side mold 200 moves together with the fixed side mold plate 13B for molded product while keeping the fixed side mold plate 13B for molded product in contact with the movable side mold plate 23 of the movable side mold 200, and the gap between the fixed side mold plate 13B for molded product and the stripper plate 12B for molded product opens and they are separated.

[0077] At this time, the sprue / runner resin 600B remaining and solidified in the sprues 111, 113 and the runner 112 is separated from the resin molded product 500B near the gate opening of the pin gate 114, which is the weakest point with the smallest cross-sectional area. That is, since the resin 600B in the runner 112 is fixed by the runner lock pin 163, when the space between the fixed side mold plate for molded products 13B and the stripper plate for molded products 12B is opened, the resin at the pin gate 114 formed at the tip of the secondary sprue 113 is pulled, and since the pin gate 114 is formed thinner than the secondary sprue 113, this is the weakest point in terms of strength, and the resin breaks near this gate opening, causing the gate to be cut.

[0078] 6, when the mold opening proceeds with the movable mold 200 moving in the direction opposite to the molded product fixed side attachment plate 11B, the molding fixed side mold plate 13B comes into contact with the bolt head of the puller bolt 164 and stops, i.e., the movement of the molded product fixed side mold plate 13B is restricted by the puller bolt 164, but the movable side mold plate 23 continues to move in the direction away from the molded product fixed side attachment plate 11B and separates from the molded product fixed side mold plate 13B. That is, the parting surface 300 between the molded product fixed side mold plate 13B and the movable side mold plate 23 opens. Since the runner lock pin 163 is engaged with the runner 112 formed on the fixed mold plate for molded product 13B at its tip portion formed in an undercut shape, the stripper plate for molded product 12B is held on the side of the fixed attachment plate for molded product 11B, whereas no biasing force is generated on the parting surface 300, and therefore, as the movable mold 200 moves backward, the space between the fixed mold plate for molded product 13B and the movable mold plate 23 is opened. At this time, the resin molded product 500B remains on the movable mold plate 23 side of the movable mold 200.

[0079] Then, the movable mold 200 moves further to advance the mold opening, and when the opening restricted by the tension link 171 between the fixed mold plate 13B for molded product and the movable mold plate 23 becomes maximum, the fixed mold plate 13B for molded product is pulled in the mold opening direction via the tension link 171. When the opening restricted by the puller bolt 164 between the fixed mold plate 13B for molded product and the stripper plate 12B for molded product becomes maximum, the fixed mold plate 13B for molded product pulls the puller bolt 164, and the stripper plate 12B for molded product moves in a direction away from the fixed mounting plate 11 for molding due to the pulling force acting via the puller bolt 164, and the stripper plate 12B for molded product and the fixed mounting plate 11B for molded product are separated as shown in FIG. 7, and the stripper plate 12B for molded product and the fixed mounting plate 11B for molded product are opened by a predetermined distance restricted by the stop bolt 165.

[0080] At this time, as shown in Figure 8, the sprue / runner resin 600B that remains and hardens in the primary sprue 111, runner 112, secondary sprue 113, and pin gate 114 separates from the resin remaining in the injection nozzle N1 near the nozzle tip of the injection nozzle N1, which is the smallest cross-sectional area and weakest point. That is, when the space between the fixed attachment plate 11B for molded products and the stripper plate 12B for molded products is opened, the sprue / runner resin 600B is separated from the resin remaining in the injection nozzle N1, and the engagement of the runner locking portion of the runner lock pin 163 with the sprue / runner resin 600B is released by the pushing force from the stripper plate 12B for molded products acting on the sprue / runner resin 600B, so that the sprue / runner resin 600B is separated from the locking pin 163, and the sprue / runner resin 600 that was stuck (bitten) on the stripper plate 12B for molded products falls and is removed from the fixed mold 100B for molded products. When the injection process of the resin for molded products to form the next resin molded product 500B is started, the mold is clamped again between the fixed mold 100B for molded products and the movable mold 200. That is, the movable side mold 200 moves toward the fixed side mold for molded product 100B, and the spaces between the fixed side mounting plate for molded product 11B, the stripper plate for molded product 12B, the fixed side mold plate for molded product 13B, and the movable side mold plate 23 are closed, returning to a mold closed clamped state.

[0081] Next, as the movable side mold 200 and the fixed side mold for molded product 100B are separated, the resin molded product 500B is released from the fixed side mold for molded product 100B, and while the resin molded product 500B is held on the cavity forming surface 310 of the movable side mold 200, a changeover process is performed to switch the fixed side mold that faces the movable side mold 200 from the fixed side mold for molded product 100B to the fixed side mold for painting 100A. The switching means at this time can be a die slide injection method (DSI method) in which a die is slid, a die rotary injection method (DRI method) in which a plurality of dies attached to a die mounting plate are rotated with the die opening / closing direction as a rotation axis, or a rotary platen method in which a plurality of dies are rotated in a direction perpendicular to the die opening / closing direction between a fixed platen and a movable platen, and the like, by which the fixed die to be combined with the movable die 200 can be switched from the fixed die 100B for molded products to the fixed die 100A for painting. For example, the movable die 200 is moved so that the movable die platen 13 holding the resin molded product 500B faces the fixed die 13A for painting of the fixed die 100A for painting, and the movable die 200 and the fixed die 100A for painting constitute the in-mold painting die 10A as shown in FIG. Then, as a secondary die clamping process, the movable die 200 and the fixed die 100A for painting are clamped in a state where they face each other.

[0082] 10, in the movable die 200 and the fixed die 100A for painting that constitute the paint die 10A, the movable die 23 of the movable die 200 is abutted against the fixed die 13A for painting of the fixed die 100A, the paint stripper plate 12A is abutted against the fixed die 13A for painting on the opposite side to the abutment side with the movable die 23, and the fixed attachment plate 11A for painting is abutted against the stripper plate 12 on the opposite side to the abutment side with the fixed die 13A for painting. As a result, a runner 112 is formed between the paint stripper plate 12A and the fixed die 13A for painting as a passage for paint made of a two-component thermosetting resin, and a parting surface 300 between the fixed die 13A for painting and the movable die 23 is closed to form a paint cavity 400.

[0083] Here, in this embodiment 1, a resin molded product 500B is held on the cavity forming surface 310 of the movable side mold plate 23 of the movable side mold 200, so when the fixed side mold 100B for painting and the movable side mold 200 are closed, the resin molded product 500B is arranged in the painting cavity 400 formed between the fixed side mold plate 13B for painting and the movable side mold plate 23, and a clearance 400C is provided between the resin molded product 500B and the cavity forming surface 310 of the movable side mold plate 13B for painting that faces the movable side mold plate 23.

[0084] In this manner, the fixed side painting die 100A and the movable side die 200 constituting the painting die 10A are closed, and a clearance 400C is formed between the resin molded product 500B and the cavity forming surface 310 of the movable side painting plate 13B facing the movable side plate 23. In this state, in the injection process, a two-component mixed thermosetting resin paint is injected from the nozzle N2 provided at the tip of the cylinder of the injection machine set on the side of the fixed side painting attachment plate 11A at a predetermined injection pressure (e.g., 100 to 200 bar, preferably 120 to 180 bar) and temperature (e.g., 60 to 90°C, preferably 60 to 70°C). At this time, the closed movable mold 200 and the fixed mold for painting 100A are preheated to a temperature at which the two-component mixed thermosetting resin can be sufficiently hardened (e.g., a mold temperature of 20 to 150°C, preferably 70 to 90°C), and paint is injected into the movable mold 200 and the fixed mold for painting 100A in this state. The injection machine (not shown) is driven by a drive device, and a valve, for example, is attached to the resin injection port, making it possible to adjust the injection amount of thermosetting resin, which is a mixture of two liquids. The resin injection machine includes, for example, a measuring cylinder for measuring the resin, an injector having an on-off valve for injecting the resin, a controller for controlling the measurement and the on-off valve, and a resin tank. When injecting the resin, the injector opens, and the resin measured by the measuring cylinder is discharged from the injector. In addition, the machine generally includes a resin circulation / cooling mechanism for preventing the resin from hardening in the injection machine, and the resin put into the resin tank is circulated.

[0085] When paint made of a two-liquid mixed thermosetting resin is injected into the closed movable mold 200 and the fixed coating mold 100A, as shown in FIG. 11, the injected paint is poured into the primary sprue 111 of the sprue bush 119 provided on the fixed coating attachment plate 11A and the stripper plate 12A of the fixed coating mold 100A, and is poured from the primary sprue 111 to the stripper plate 12A and the fixed coating mold 100A. The resin flows into a runner 112 provided between the resin molded product 500B and the cavity forming surface 310 of the molding fixed side template 13A, and then flows from the runner 112 into a secondary sprue 113 provided on the painting fixed side template 13A, passes through a pin gate 114 provided at the tip of the sprue, and is filled into the clearance 400C between the resin molded product 500B in the painting cavity 400 and the cavity forming surface 310 of the molding fixed side template 13A through a pin gate opening formed in the cavity forming surface 310 of the painting fixed side template 13A.

[0086] Then, in the coating molding process, the two-liquid mixed thermosetting resin paint is hardened by holding the paint in that state for a predetermined time (for example, 10 to 600 seconds). That is, the paint coated on the surface of the resin molded product 500B by filling the paint into the clearance 400C is hardened and molded to form the coated resin molded product 500 in which the coating film 500A is formed on the surface of the resin molded product 500B. The thickness of the coating film 500A is set to, for example, 0.1 to 10 mm, preferably 0.1 to 6 mm, in terms of the hardened thickness.

[0087] In particular, in the present embodiment 1, when the coating fixed-side metal mold 100A and the movable-side metal mold 200 are clamped together to bring the parting surface 300 of the coating fixed-side mold plate 13A of the coating fixed-side metal mold 100A and the movable-side mold plate 23 of the movable-side metal mold 200 into contact with each other, a clearance 400C into which paint is filled is formed between the resin molded product 500B and the cavity forming surface 310 of the molding fixed-side mold plate 13A, and paint is filled into the clearance 400C in the clamped state of the coating fixed-side metal mold 100A and the movable-side mold plate 23 of the movable-side metal mold 200. By setting z to 0.8 μm or less, preferably 0.6 μm or less, more preferably 0.4 μm or less, and even more preferably 0.2 μm or less, the parting surface 300, which is the contact surface between the fixed side painting template 13A of the fixed side painting mold 100A and the movable side template 23 of the movable side mold 200, becomes a highly accurate smooth surface and has a metal touch, so that even if the paint made of a two-component mixed thermosetting resin such as polyurethane or silicone has low viscosity and high fluidity, the paint is less likely to leak onto the parting surface 300, which is the contact surface between the fixed side painting template 13A of the fixed side painting mold 100A and the movable side template 23 of the movable side mold 200, and burr defects are less likely to occur.

[0088] In addition, since the paint made of a two-component mixed thermosetting resin is injected through the pin gate 114 into the clearance 400C between the resin molded product 500B in the coating cavity 400 and the cavity forming surface 310, it is possible to form a thin coating film 500A without causing filling defects. Naturally, since a high injection pressure is not required, it also prevents the paint from leaking.

[0089] In addition, the runner 112 of the paint fixed side mold 100A is formed between the paint fixed side mold plate 13A and the paint stripper plate 12A, and the surface roughness Rz of the divided surface 700 of the paint fixed side mold plate 13A and the paint stripper plate 12A is 0.8 μm or less, preferably 0.6 μm or less, more preferably 0.4 μm or less, and even more preferably 0.2 μm or less, so that even if paint made of a two-liquid mixed type thermosetting resin with low viscosity is injected into the runner 112, leakage (intrusion) of the paint to the mating surface where the paint fixed side mold plate 13A and the paint stripper plate 12A come into contact can be prevented. Therefore, the work of removing the leaked and attached resin can be reduced, and the molding cycle can be improved.

[0090] Then, when the two-component thermosetting resin paint is sufficiently heated and hardened, the painting mold 10A is cooled to a predetermined temperature as necessary, and then the movable mold 200 and the painting fixed mold 100A are opened as a secondary mold opening process in order to remove the painted resin molded product 500 from the painting cavity 400. The clamping and opening directions of the in-mold painting mold 10A are also the same as the operating direction of the movable mold 200 and the injection direction of the paint made of two-component thermosetting resin.

[0091] In the secondary mold opening process, as shown in FIG. 12, in the same manner as in the case of the mold 10B for molded product, when the movable platen of the mold clamping device (not shown) is moved to the opposite side from the side of the paint fixed side mounting plate 11A, due to the action of the joining force of the puller bolt 164, that is, the coil spring (not shown) is compressed and inserted in the mold clamping state with the puller bolt 164 arranged on the paint fixed side template 13A and the paint stripper plate 12A as an axis, and biases the paint fixed side template 13A and the paint stripper plate 12A in the direction of opening, and due to the repulsive force of the coil spring, the movable side mold 200 moves together with the paint fixed side template 13A while keeping the paint fixed side template 13A in contact with the movable side template 23 of the movable side mold 200, and the gap between the paint fixed side template 13A and the paint stripper plate 12A opens and they are separated.

[0092] At this time, the sprue / runner resin 600A remaining and hardened in the sprues 111, 113 and runner 112 is separated from the coated resin molded product 500 near the gate opening of the pin gate 114, which has the smallest cross-sectional area and is the weakest point. That is, since the resin 600A in the runner 112 is fixed by the runner lock pin 163, when the space between the painting fixed side template 13A and the painting stripper plate 12A is opened, the resin in the pin gate 114 formed at the tip of the secondary sprue 113 is pulled, and since the pin gate 114 is formed thinner than the secondary sprue 113, this is the weakest point in terms of strength, and the resin breaks near this gate opening, causing the gate to be cut.

[0093] 13, when the movable die 200 moves in the direction opposite to the painting fixed side mounting plate 11A, the painting fixed side mold plate 13A comes into contact with the bolt head of the puller bolt 164 and stops, i.e., the movement of the painting fixed side mold plate 13A is restricted by the puller bolt 164, but the movable side mold plate 23 continues to move in the direction away from the painting fixed side mounting plate 11A and separates from the painting fixed side mold plate 13A. That is, the parting surface 300 between the painting fixed side mold plate 13A and the movable side mold plate 23 opens. In addition, since the runner lock pin 163 is engaged with the runner 112 formed on the fixed side painting template 13A at its tip portion which is formed in an undercut shape, the paint stripper plate 12A is held on the side of the fixed side painting mounting plate 11A, whereas no biasing force is generated on the parting surface 300, as the movable side die 200 moves backward, the gap between the fixed side painting template 13A and the movable side template 23 is opened. At this time, the coated resin molded product 500 is released from the coating fixed mold plate 13A and remains on the movable mold plate 23 side of the movable metal mold 200.

[0094] Then, the movable mold 200 moves further to advance mold opening, and when the opening restricted by the tension link 171 between the painting fixed mold plate 13A and the movable mold plate 23 becomes maximum, the painting fixed mold plate 13A is pulled in the mold opening direction via the tension link 171. When the opening restricted by the puller bolt 164 between the painting fixed mold plate 13A and the painting stripper plate 12A becomes maximum, the painting fixed mold plate 13A pulls the puller bolt 164, and the painting stripper plate 12A moves in a direction away from the painting fixed attachment plate 11A due to the pulling force acting via the puller bolt 164, and the painting stripper plate 12A and the painting fixed attachment plate 11A are separated as shown in FIG. 14, and the paint stripper plate 12A and the painting fixed attachment plate 11A are opened by a predetermined distance restricted by the stop bolt 165.

[0095] At this time, as shown in Figure 15, the sprue / runner resin 600A that remains and hardened in the primary sprue 111, runner 112, secondary sprue 113, and pin gate 114 separates from the resin remaining in the injection injection nozzle N2 near the nozzle of the injection injection nozzle N2, which is the smallest cross-sectional area and weakest point. That is, when the space between the paint fixed side mounting plate 11A and the paint stripper plate 12A is opened, the sprue runner resin 600A is pulled away from the resin remaining in the injection nozzle N2, and the extrusion force from the paint stripper plate 12A acting on the sprue runner resin 600A releases the engagement of the runner lock portion of the runner lock pin 163 with the sprue runner resin 600A, causing the sprue runner resin 600A to be pulled away from the lock pin 163, and the sprue runner resin 600A that had been sticking (biting) to the paint stripper plate 12A side falls and comes off the paint fixed side mold 100A.

[0096] Then, by utilizing the operation of the ejector rod 225 of the injection molding device, the ejector plate 25 is pushed toward the side of the fixed side coating mold 100A, and the tip of the ejector pin 26 fixed to the ejector plate 25 protrudes from the insert 23a of the movable side mold plate 23 and pushes out (projects) the coated resin molded product 500 remaining on the cavity forming surface 310 of the movable side mold plate 23. As a result, the coated resin molded product 500 falls away from the insert 23a of the movable side mold plate 23 and is recovered, or is taken out by a take-out machine and recovered. The obtained coated resin molded product 500 is a resin molded product 500B molded in the mold for molded product 10B, the surface of which is covered with a coating film 500A made of a two-liquid mixed type thermosetting resin paint having a lower viscosity than the viscosity of the molten resin that formed the resin molded product 500B. The coating film 500A formed by coating the surface of the resin molded product 500B with paint made of a two-component mixed thermosetting resin has a thickness of, for example, 0.1 mm or more and 6 mm or less.

[0097] As described above, in this embodiment 1, both in the mold 10B for forming the resin molded product 500B and in the in-mold painting mold 10A for painting the resin molded product 500B, when the movable mold 200 begins to move opposite the fixed mounting plates 11A, 11B due to the mold opening, the space between the fixed mold plates 13A, 13B and the runner stripper plates 12A, 12B is first opened by the force of the spring provided in the puller bolt 164, and at this time, the resin 600A, 600B that has solidified on the runner 112 side is pulled toward the fixed side (the runner stripper plates 12A, 12B side) by the runner lock pin 163, and is therefore cut near the pin gate opening of the weakest pin gate 114. Furthermore, as the movable side mold 200 moves and the mold opening progresses, the parting surface 300 between the fixed side mold plates 13A, 13B and the movable side mold plate 23 opens, and the resin molded product 500B or the painted resin molded product 500 is usually released from the fixed side mold plates 13A, 13B and remains on the cavity forming surface 310 side of the movable side mold plate 23.

[0098] Furthermore, the opening between the fixed side mold plates 13A, 13B and the movable side mold plate 23 is brought to its full stroke limit by the tension link 171, and the opening between the fixed side mold plates 13A, 13B and the runner stripper plates 12A, 12B is brought to its full stroke limit by the puller bolt 164, and as the movable side mold 200 moves away from the fixed side molds 100A, 100B and the mold opening progresses, the runner stripper plates 12A, 12B are pulled by the tension link 171 and the puller bolt 164, and the connection between the runner lock pin 163 and the resin solidified in the runner 112 is forcibly separated, and when it is pulled away from the resin remaining in the injection nozzles N1, N2 near the nozzle ports of the injection injection nozzles N1, N2, the sprue-runner resin 600A, 600B that had solidified in the sprues 111, 113 and the runner 112 falls.

[0099] In addition, after painting in the in-mold painting metal mold 10A is completed, the painted resin molded product 500 remaining on the cavity forming surface 310 side of the movable side mold plate 23 is ejected and removed by the ejector pin 26 through the ejector plate 25 by utilizing the operation of the ejector rod 255 of the injection molding device. After the sprue / runner resin 600A and the coated resin molded product 500 are released and taken out of the mold, the ejector rod 225 of the injection molding device is retracted, and the ejector pin 26 is retracted in the axial direction by the repulsive force of the return spring 28, returning to the original position before ejection. Then, when the next coating process is started, the coating fixed mold 100A and the movable mold 200 are clamped again. That is, the movable mold 200 moves to the coating fixed mold 100A side, and the spaces between the coating fixed attachment plate 11A, the coating stripper plate 12A, the coating fixed mold plate 13A, and the movable mold plate 23 are closed, returning to the mold closed clamped state.

[0100] In the in-mold coating mold 10A and mold for molded product 10B of the present embodiment 1, both have a three-plate structure having fixed side mold plates 13A, 13B, runner stripper plates 12A, 12B, and movable side mold plate 23, and the movable side mold plate 23 and the fixed side mold plates 13A, 13B can be separated by a predetermined stroke (at the parting surface), and the fixed side mold plates 13A, 13B and the runner stripper plates 12A, 12B can be separated by a predetermined stroke, and the runner stripper plates 12A, 12B also separate by a predetermined stroke from the fixed side mounting plates 11A, 11B. Thus, in the mold for molded product 10B, the sprue / runner resin 600B can be separated from the resin molded product 500B when the mold is opened, and gate processing (runner processing) is automatically performed, making gate processing (gate cutting, finishing) in a later process unnecessary. In addition, in the paint molding mold 10A, the painted resin molded product 500 and the sprue / runner resin 600A can be separated and taken out and collected by opening the mold, and gate processing is performed automatically, eliminating the need for gate processing in a later process. Therefore, productivity is high.

[0101] Furthermore, in the in-mold coating mold 10A and mold for molded products 10B of this embodiment 1, there is a three-plate structure consisting of runner stripper plates 12A, 12B, fixed side mold plates 13A, 13B, and movable side mold plate 23, and the gate for injecting resin into cavities 400, 800 is pin gate 114. When the mold is opened, resin molded product 500B or painted resin molded product 500 is separated from sprue / runner resin 600A, 600B by gate cutting, eliminating the need for gate cutting or finishing of painted resin molded product 500 in a later process. Furthermore, the pin gate structure reduces restrictions on gate position, making it possible to produce multiple pieces (multiple pieces) and improving mass productivity.

[0102] Thus, the in-mold painting method (in-mold coating molding method) using the two-color molding die 1 of the present embodiment 1 is a method of molding and coating the resin molded product 500B in the same two-color molding die 1. That is, after forming the resin molded product 500B in the molded product mold 10B consisting of the fixed mold for molded product 100B and the movable mold 200 of the two-color molding die 1, without removing the resin molded product 500B from the two-color molding die 1, the surface of the resin molded product 500B is painted (coated) with a paint (coating agent) made of a two-liquid mixed thermosetting resin in the coating mold 10A consisting of the fixed mold for coating 100A and the movable mold 200 of the two-color molding die 1.

[0103] In the two-color molding die 1 of this embodiment 1, a resin for molding such as a thermoplastic resin is molded using a molded product die 10B consisting of a fixed side die 100B for molding a molded product and a movable side die 200 arranged opposite each other to form a resin molded product 500B. Then, a two-component thermosetting resin paint is injected into the clearance 400C between the resin molded product 500B and the fixed side painting plate 13A using the movable side die 200 holding the resin molded product 500B and the painting die 100A consisting of a fixed side die 100A arranged opposite each other to form a painted resin molded product 500 in which a coating (film) 500A made of a two-component thermosetting resin paint is formed and adhered integrally to the surface of the resin molded product 500B.

[0104] According to the two-color molding die 1 which performs such an in-mold painting method (in-mold coating molding method), molding of a molded product made of thermoplastic resin and painting molding (coating with paint) are performed in the same two-color molding die 1, so compared to taking out the resin molded product 500B and separately painting it with a spray or the like, it is possible to reduce costs by shortening the process. In addition, dust (floating dirt, etc.) does not adhere to the resin molded product 500B, and the paint made of a two-liquid mixed type thermosetting resin does not adhere to the coating film before it hardens, and even if weld lines, sink marks, flow marks, etc. occur on the resin molded product 500B during the formation stage of the resin molded product 500B, they are hidden by the coating film 500A, so a high-quality coated resin molded product 500 can be obtained. Therefore, it is also suitable for molding vehicle parts that require high-quality appearance, such as automobile bumpers, door mirror covers, fenders, door panels, side moldings, wheel caps, over fenders, door handles, side protectors, etc., motorcycle side covers, cowls, etc., and for molding electronic parts, etc. In particular, in the case of painting using such a two-color mold 1, the thickness of the coating film is determined by the amount of paint made of a two-liquid mixed type thermosetting resin injected by injection, so it is easy to form a thick coating film that is difficult to form by a method of applying paint such as a spray method. For example, a wide range of coating film thicknesses, such as 100 μm to 6000 μm, can be formed. In particular, in the case of a two-liquid mixed type thermosetting resin, since it is possible to suppress hardening shrinkage due to temperature changes in the mold, even if the coating film thickness is made thick, it is difficult to cause sink defects. Furthermore, it is difficult to cause painting defects called orange peel, adhesion of dirt, dripping, frame phenomenon, etc. that occur in spray painting, etc. In addition, when a glittering material is added to the paint, it is possible to express a design different from that of a spray-painted product. And, compared to spray paint, paint made of a two-liquid mixed type thermosetting resin does not generate volatile organic compounds in the process of changing into a coating film 500A by heat hardening, so it is possible to reduce the burden on the environment and also requires less energy.

[0105] In particular, the in-mold coating mold 10A is used to coat the surface of the resin molded product 500B with a paint made of a two-liquid mixed thermosetting resin, such as a polyurethane resin made by mixing a main agent, polyol B (Puroclear 3351 IT), and a hardener, isocyanate A (Puronate 960 / 1). The mold 10A is provided with a coating stationary side mounting plate 11A, a coating stationary side mold plate 13A, and a coating stripper plate 12B disposed between the coating stationary side mounting plate 11A and the coating stationary side mold plate 13A. The coating material flows and is injected into the mold 10A on the same axis as the injection direction (mold clamping direction). a runner 112 that is connected to the primary sprue 111 and is provided in a direction substantially perpendicular to the primary sprue 111; a secondary sprue 113 that is connected to the runner 112 and is provided in parallel with the direction of injection of the resin; and a pin gate 114 that is provided at the tip of the secondary sprue 113 and connects the secondary sprue 113 and the cavity 400; and a movable mounting unit that is attached to the movable platen side of the injection molding device. The movable mold 200 includes a plate 21, a movable mold plate 23, a spacer block 24 arranged between the movable mold plate 21 and the movable mold plate 23, an ejector plate 25 arranged in the space surrounded by the spacer block 24, and an ejector pin 26 having one end fixed to the ejector plate 25 and penetrating the movable mold plate 23. The fixed mold 100A for coating and the movable mold 200 are clamped together to form a fixed mold plate 13A for coating and a movable mold plate 200. The coating cavity 400 is formed between the coating fixed side mold 100A and the movable side mold 200, and a resin molded product 500B is placed therein, forming a clearance 400C between the resin molded product 500B and the coating fixed side mold plate 13A or the movable side mold plate 23. The surface roughness Rz of the parting surface 300 between the coating fixed side mold 100A and the movable side mold 200 is 0.8 μm or less, preferably 0.6 μm or less, more preferably 0.4 μm or less, and even more preferably 0.2 μm or less.

[0106] In the first embodiment, in a state where the fixed-side painting mold 100A and the movable-side mold 200 are clamped, paint is injected toward the clearance 400C formed between the resin molded product 500B and the fixed-side painting mold plate 13A. In addition, the surface roughness Rz of the parting surface 300, which is the separation surface between the fixed-side painting mold plate 13A of the fixed-side painting mold 100A and the movable-side mold plate 23 of the movable-side mold 200, is 0.8 μm or less, preferably 0.6 μm or less, and more preferably 0.8 μm or less. , 0.4 μm or less, more preferably 0.2 μm or less, so that even when a paint made of a two-component curing type thermosetting resin such as polyurethane, which has a very low viscosity compared to general synthetic resins of thermoplastic resins, is filled into the clearance 400C of the coating cavity 400, the paint is unlikely to penetrate there because of the metal touch of the parting surface 300, which is the contact surface between the coating fixed side mold plate 13A of the coating fixed side mold 100A and the movable side mold plate 23 of the movable side mold 200. Therefore, burr defects are unlikely to occur. In addition, since the paint is a two-component curing type thermosetting resin, the paint can be sufficiently spread in the clearance 400C of the coating cavity 400, and even if the coating film 500A is a thin film, paint filling defects are unlikely to occur.

[0107] In particular, the in-mold coating mold 10A of the present embodiment 1 has a pin gate 114 with the smallest diameter in the resin flow path as an inlet for injecting paint made of a two-component mixed thermosetting resin into the clearance 400C of the cavity 400, and the coated resin molded product 500 is separated from the sprue / runner resin 600A and the gate is cut by opening the fixed coating mold 100A and the movable mold 200. Even with this pin gate 114, paint made of a two-component mixed thermosetting resin such as polyurethane resin has low viscosity and high fluidity, so that it is possible to spread the paint to every corner of the clearance 400C of the cavity 400 without increasing the injection pressure. In this way, the occurrence of burrs is suppressed, so that the time and effort required for removing burrs after painting can be reduced, and a painted resin molded product 500 with good appearance and aesthetic quality can be obtained.

[0108] In addition, in the painting mold 10A of this embodiment 1, the runner 112 of the painting fixed side mold 100A is formed between the painting fixed side template 13A and the painting stripper plate 12A, and the surface roughness Rz of the parting surface 700 of the painting fixed side template 13A and the painting stripper plate 12 is 0.8 μm or less, preferably 0.6 μm or less, more preferably 0.4 μm or less, and even more preferably 0.2 μm or less. Therefore, even if the runner 112 is filled with paint made of a two-component curing type thermosetting resin with low viscosity, it is possible to prevent the paint from leaking (entering) into the mating surface where the painting fixed side template 13A and the painting stripper plate 12A come into contact at the divided surface 700. This reduces the burden of discharging the excess leaked paint, and increases the productivity of the painted resin molded product 500.

[0109] Furthermore, in a structure in which the gate for injecting paint into the clearance 400C of the cavity 400 is the pin gate 114, a multi-point gate is also possible, and in the case of a multi-point gate, it becomes easier to spread the resin to every corner of the clearance 400C of the coating cavity 400. Therefore, it is possible to better prevent paint from leaking onto the parting surface 300 of the coating fixed mold 100A and the movable mold 200, and to better suppress the occurrence of burrs.

[0110] In particular, with the pin gate method, it is possible to set the resin flow distance from the gate to the flow end to be short, and it is easy to obtain an even pressure distribution, which prevents resin from leaking from areas where the pressure is high when the paint is filled into the clearance 400C of the coating cavity 400, and further suppresses the occurrence of burrs. Furthermore, paint made of a two-component thermosetting resin has good fluidity, so it is unlikely to produce weld lines even with a multi-point gate structure, and design properties can be ensured. In addition, the gate mark left by cutting the pin gate is located on the surface (upper surface) of the coated resin molded product 500, but since the pin gate has a small gate opening (gate diameter), the gate mark left by the coating of the molded coated resin molded product 500 is small and inconspicuous. Therefore, the design is not impaired. In addition, if the mold 10B for molding and the mold 10A for painting have a pin gate structure, it is possible to simultaneously mold and paint a large number of painted resin molded products 500, which increases the mass productivity of the painted resin molded products 500.

[0111] In addition, the low viscosity of the two-part thermosetting resin paint makes it difficult for filling defects to occur. Furthermore, the pin gate method allows for multi-point gates, and in the case of multi-point gates, the flow length of the resin from the gate to the end of the flow can be shortened, and the curing in a specified short time makes it possible to more effectively prevent the occurrence of air bubbles and burrs.

[0112] Here, in the in-mold coating mold 10A of the present embodiment 1, the clearance 400C formed between the resin molded product 500B arranged between the coating fixed mold 100A and the movable mold 200 by clamping and the cavity forming surface 310 of the molding fixed mold plate 13A is filled with a two-component curing thermosetting resin, and the surface roughness Rz of the parting surface 300, which is the separation surface of the coating fixed mold plate 13A of the coating fixed mold 100A and the movable mold plate 23 of the movable mold 200, is 0.8 μm or less, preferably 0.6 μm or less, more preferably 0.4 μm or less, and even more preferably 0.2 μm or less, so that even if the product shape is difficult to use a spigot structure (also called a cut-off structure, a share edge structure, etc.), it is possible to prevent the leakage of the paint made of the two-component curing thermosetting resin. Therefore, the shape of the mold can be set arbitrarily, and the degree of freedom in designing the mold is high.

[0113] In addition, when a resin touch is provided around the molded product to prevent the thermosetting paint from leaking out of the parting surface 300 by providing a burr or a secondary cavity for the purpose of sealing, the degree of freedom of the molded product shape is reduced. Also, in the case of a spigot structure, there is a risk of paint leakage due to a gap occurring between the dies as a result of wear at the cut-off portion. In contrast, in the present embodiment 1, a two-component curing type thermosetting resin is filled into the clearance 400C formed between the resin molded product 500B arranged between the fixed side mold 100A for mounting and the movable side mold 200 by clamping and the cavity forming surface 310 of the fixed side mold plate for molding 13A, and the surface roughness Rz of the parting surface 300, which is the separation surface between the fixed side mold plate for painting 13A of the fixed side mold for painting 100A and the movable side mold plate 23 of the movable side mold 200, is 0.8 μm or less, preferably 0.6 μm or less, more preferably 0.4 μm or less, and even more preferably 0.2 μm or less, so that the metal touch of the parting surface 300 makes it difficult for resin to leak onto the parting surface 300 even if it is a flat surface, and the degree of freedom in molding can be increased. And, since wear is unlikely to occur on the flat surface, resin leakage is unlikely to occur even with repeated molding cycles and repeated use of the mold, and resin leakage can be prevented for a long period of time.

[0114] That is, in the two-color molding mold 1 of this embodiment 1, a molded product mold 10B for molding a resin molded product 500B and an in-mold coating mold 10A for forming a coating film 500A on the surface of the resin molded product 500B are switched, and paint is injected into the painting clearance 400C formed by clamping the in-mold coating mold 10A while a clamping force is applied. Furthermore, by making the surface roughness Rz of the parting surface 300 of the in-mold coating mold 10A 0.8 μm or less, preferably 0.6 μm or less, more preferably 0.4 μm or less, and even more preferably 0.2 μm or less, it is possible to prevent the paint made of a two-component mixed thermosetting resin from leaking out of the in-mold coating mold 10A even if the parting surface 300 of the in-mold coating mold 10A is a flat surface. Therefore, it is possible to eliminate the trouble of forming unnecessary parts (resin touch) around the resin molded product 500B to seal the area to prevent the two-liquid mixed thermosetting resin paint from leaking out of the mold, and to remove the unnecessary parts after molding, and the degree of freedom in molding can be increased. In particular, the pin gate structure makes it possible to set the flow distance of the paint from the gate to the flow end to be short, making it possible to design the paint to be uniformly diffused in the paint clearance 400C before hardening, and hardening in a specified short time makes it difficult for air bubbles to occur, and it is possible to uniformly adhere and integrate the paint even in a thin film on the surface of the resin molded product 500B, which makes it possible to further prevent the occurrence of burrs.

[0115] However, when carrying out the present invention, the in-mold coating mold 10A may have a spigot structure between the in-mold coating fixed mold 100A and the movable mold 200. When the in-mold coating fixed mold 100A and the movable mold 200 are connected with a spigot structure, it is possible to prevent misalignment of the in-mold coating fixed mold 100A and the movable mold 200, thereby improving the effect of preventing burrs from occurring.

[0116] As described above, the in-mold coating metal mold 10A as an injection molding metal mold of the above-mentioned embodiment 1 is an injection molding metal mold for coating and molding with paint made of a two-component mixed thermosetting resin, and includes an in-mold coating fixed-side metal mold 100A having an in-mold coating fixed-side mold plate 13A, a movable-side metal mold 200 having a movable-side mold plate 23 opposed to the in-mold coating fixed-side mold plate 13A, a flow path formed in the in-mold coating fixed-side metal mold 100A and consisting of sprues 111, 113, runner 112, and pin gate 114 through which the paint made of a two-component mixed thermosetting resin flows that is injected, and The cavity 400 is formed between the fixed side mold plate 13A for in-mold painting and the movable side mold plate 23 by clamping the movable side mold 200 and the sprues 111, 113 of the fixed side mold plate 13A for in-mold painting, the runner 112, and the pin gate 114 of the fixed side mold plate 13A for in-mold painting, and a coating cavity 400 is flowed into the cavity 400. The surface roughness Rz of the parting surface 300 between the fixed side mold plate 13A for in-mold painting and the movable side mold plate 23 is 0.8 μm or less, preferably 0.6 μm or less, more preferably 0.4 μm or less, and even more preferably 0.2 μm or less.

[0117] Therefore, even when paint made of a low-viscosity two-component mixed type thermosetting resin is filled into the painting clearance 400C of the painting cavity 400, the metal touch of the highly accurate smooth surface of the parting surface 300 can suppress leakage (penetration) of the in-mold painting fixed side template 13A and the movable side template 23 into the parting surface 300, thereby preventing the occurrence of burrs.

[0118] Also, since paint made of a two-component mixed thermosetting resin is filled into the clearance 400C of the paint cavity 400 formed by clamping the in-mold painting fixed metal die 100A and the movable metal die 200, the paint is unlikely to leak onto the parting surfaces 300 of the in-mold painting fixed plate 13A and the movable plate 23. Therefore, it is possible to prevent burrs from occurring without causing paint filling failure.

[0119] That is, the in-mold coating metal mold 10A as the injection molding metal mold of the above-mentioned embodiment 1 is an in-mold coating metal mold 10A that coats a resin molded product 500B with paint made of a two-component mixed type thermosetting resin by coating molding with paint made of a two-component mixed type thermosetting resin, and includes an in-mold coating fixed-side metal mold 100A having an in-mold coating fixed-side template 13A, a movable-side metal mold 200 having a movable-side template 23 opposed to the in-mold coating fixed-side template 13A, a flow path formed in the in-mold coating fixed-side metal mold 100A or the movable-side metal mold 200 and consisting of sprues 111, 113, runners 112, and pin gates 114 through which the injected paint flows, and a flow path formed in the in-mold coating fixed-side metal mold 100A and the movable-side metal mold 200. The cavity 400 is formed between the fixed side mold plate 13A for in-mold painting and the movable side mold plate 23 by clamping the mold 200, and a resin molded product 500B is placed therein. A clearance 400C is formed between the fixed side mold plate 13A for in-mold painting and / or the movable side mold plate 23, and is filled with paint that has flowed through a flow path consisting of the sprues 111, 113, the runner 112, and the pin gate 114. The parting surface 300 between the fixed side mold plate 13A for in-mold painting and the movable side mold plate 23 has a surface roughness Rz of 0.8 μm or less, preferably 0.6 μm or less, more preferably 0.4 μm or less, and even more preferably 0.2 μm or less.

[0120] Here, the in-mold painting fixed metal mold 100A is provided with an in-mold painting fixed template 13A corresponding to one side of a coated resin molded product 500 obtained by coating a resin molded product 500B with paint. In addition, the movable side mold 200 is equipped with a movable side plate 23 corresponding to the other side of the painted resin molded product 500, and is the side that reciprocates between opening and closing in the in-mold painting mold 10A, and is positioned opposite the in-mold painting fixed side mold 100A. The parting surface 300 is the dividing surface between the fixed side template 13A for in-mold painting and the movable side template 23, i.e., the mating surface where the fixed side template 13A for in-mold painting and the movable side template 23 abut when the mold is clamped, and has a surface roughness Rz of 0.8 μm or less, preferably 0.6 μm or less, more preferably 0.4 μm or less, and even more preferably 0.2 μm or less.

[0121] Therefore, according to the mold 10A for in-mold painting of the above-mentioned embodiment 1, the surface roughness Rz of the parting surface 300, which is the mold mating surface where the fixed side plate 13A for in-mold painting and the movable side plate 23 abut against each other by clamping, is 0.8 μm or less, preferably 0.6 μm or less, more preferably 0.4 μm or less, and even more preferably 0.2 μm or less, resulting in a highly accurate smooth surface. Therefore, even when paint made of a low-viscosity two-component mixed thermosetting resin is filled into the clearance 400C of the painting cavity 400, the metal touch of the parting surface 300 can suppress leakage (intrusion) of the fixed side plate 13A for in-mold painting and the movable side plate 23 into the parting surface 300, and prevent the occurrence of burrs. In addition, since the paint is made of a two-component mixed type thermosetting resin, the paint can be sufficiently spread in the paint clearance 400C between the resin molded product 500B and the cavity forming surface 310. In addition, since there is no need to increase the injection pressure, it is possible to further prevent the paint from leaking to the parting surface 300 of the fixed side mold plate 13A for in-mold painting and the movable side mold plate 23. Furthermore, since the paint is filled in the clearance 400C of the paint cavity 400 formed by clamping the fixed side metal mold 100A for in-mold painting and the movable side metal mold 200, the paint is less likely to leak to the parting surface 300 of the fixed side mold plate 13A for in-mold painting and the movable side mold plate 23. Thus, according to the in-mold coating metal mold 10A of the first embodiment, it is possible to prevent the occurrence of burrs without causing improper coating of paint.

[0122] According to the in-mold coating die 10A as the injection molding die according to the first embodiment, the flow path in the in-mold coating fixed die 100A has the pin gate 114. By using the pin gate as the gate for injecting the resin into the coating cavity 400, the restrictions on the gate position can be reduced, and the degree of freedom in designing the gate position that is less likely to cause molding defects such as sink marks and weld lines can be increased in accordance with the shape, specifications, applications, etc. of the target coated resin molded product 500. Therefore, the degree of freedom in setting the gate position that is less likely to cause molding defects in accordance with the dimensions, shape, specifications, applications, designs, etc. of the coated resin molded product 500 can be increased. In addition, the pin gate 114 allows multiple pieces to be taken (multiple pieces to be taken), and mass productivity can be improved. And, since the pin gate 114 also allows multiple gates, it is possible to set the flow distance of the resin from the gate to the flow end to be short, making it less likely to cause filling defects, and curing in a predetermined short time can suppress the generation of air bubbles and burrs. Furthermore, in the pin gate 114, the painted resin molded product 500 can be separated from the sprue / runner resin 600A by gate cutting when the in-mold painting fixed mold 100A and the movable mold 200 are opened, so that gate processing is not required after the painted resin molded product 500 is removed, thereby improving the productivity of the painted resin molded product 500.

[0123] In detail, according to the in-mold painting metal mold 10A of the above-mentioned embodiment 1, a flow path through which paint made of a two-component mixed thermosetting resin flows is formed in the in-mold painting fixed metal mold 100A, and is formed from a primary sprue 111 extending in the axial direction of injection of the paint made of a two-component mixed thermosetting resin, i.e., in the same direction as the mold clamping direction of the in-mold painting fixed metal mold 100A and the movable metal mold 200, a runner 112 connected to the primary sprue 111 and formed in a direction approximately perpendicular to the primary sprue 111, a secondary sprue 113 connected to the runner 112 and extending in the same direction as the mold clamping direction, and a pin gate 114 connected to the secondary sprue 113 and the painting cavity 400.

[0124] Therefore, by using the pin gate 114 as the gate for injecting resin into the coating cavity 400, restrictions on the gate position can be reduced, and the degree of freedom in designing the gate position that is less likely to cause molding defects such as sink marks and weld lines can be increased in accordance with the shape, specifications, and applications of the target coated resin molded product 500. Furthermore, the pin gate 114 allows for multiple pieces (multiple pieces), which also makes it possible to increase mass productivity. Furthermore, the pin gate 114 also allows for multiple gates, so it is possible to set the flow distance of the resin from the gate to the flow end to be shorter, making it less likely to cause filling defects, and also making it possible to further suppress the generation of air bubbles and burrs by hardening in a specified short period of time. Furthermore, in the pin gate 114, the painted resin molded product 500 can be separated from the sprue / runner resin 600A by gate cutting when the in-mold painting fixed mold 100A and the movable mold 200 are opened, so that gate processing is not required after the painted resin molded product 500 is removed, thereby improving the productivity of the painted resin molded product 500. Therefore, it is possible to increase the degree of freedom in setting the gate position to one that is less likely to cause molding defects, in accordance with the dimensions, shape, specifications, applications, design, etc. of the coated resin molded product 500.

[0125] According to the in-mold coating metal mold 10A as an injection molding metal mold according to the above-mentioned first embodiment, the in-mold coating fixed metal mold 100A has an in-mold coating runner stripper plate 12A disposed on the side opposite to the cavity forming side of the in-mold coating fixed metal plate 13A, and an in-mold coating fixed mounting plate 11A disposed on the side opposite to the in-mold coating fixed metal plate 13A of the in-mold coating runner stripper plate 12A. When the in-mold coating fixed metal mold 100A and the movable metal mold 200 are opened, the movable metal plate 23 and the in-mold coating By opening the space between the fixed side painting plates 13A and the space between the fixed side painting plates 13A and the runner stripper plate 12A for in-mold painting, the painted resin molded product 500 formed by painting and molding a two-component mixed thermosetting resin in the painting cavity 400, i.e., the painted resin molded product 500 formed by coating the resin molded product 500B with paint, is separated from the sprue / runner resin 600A formed by the paint being thermally cured in the flow path consisting of the sprues 111, 112, runner 113, and pin gate 114 of the fixed side metal mold 100A for in-mold painting.

[0126] Therefore, according to the in-mold coating mold 10A of the above-mentioned embodiment 1, it has a three-plate structure consisting of the runner stripper plate 12A for in-mold coating, the fixed side mold plate 13A for in-mold coating, and the movable side mold plate 23, and when the mold is opened, the painted resin molded product 500 and the sprue / runner side resin 600A are separated and removed by gate cutting, so that no gate processing is required after the painted resin molded product 500 is removed, and since the sprue / runner resin 600A is also released from the mold, the productivity of the painted resin molded product 500 can be further improved.

[0127] Furthermore, in the in-mold painting mold 10A of the above-mentioned embodiment 1, when the pin gate 114 is a multi-point gate formed in multiple locations on the cavity forming surface 310 of the in-mold painting fixed side mold 100A, it is possible to set the flow distance of the resin from the gate to the flow end to a shorter distance, making it less likely that poor filling will occur, and also, by hardening in a specified short period of time, the generation of air bubbles and burrs can be further suppressed.

[0128] In addition, in the in-mold coating mold 10A of the first embodiment, when a plurality of coating cavities 400 are formed between the movable mold plate 23 and the in-mold coating fixed mold plate 13A, a plurality of painted resin molded articles 500 can be simultaneously molded per molding cycle by the plurality of coating cavities 400, which is excellent in mass productivity. In other words, if the pin gate 114 is used, a large number of painted resin molded articles 500 can be simultaneously molded, so that the productivity of the painted resin molded articles 500 can be increased.

[0129] According to the in-mold coating mold 10A of the first embodiment, the runner 112 of the in-mold coating fixed mold 100A is formed between the in-mold coating fixed mold plate 13A and the in-mold coating runner stripper plate 12A, and the surface roughness Rz of the parting surface 700 of the in-mold coating fixed mold plate 13A and the in-mold coating runner stripper plate 12A is 0.8 μm or less, preferably 0.6 μm or less, more preferably 0.4 μm or less, and even more preferably 0.2 μm or less. Therefore, even when a paint made of a two-liquid mixture type thermosetting resin with low viscosity passes through the runner 112, it is possible to prevent the paint from leaking (entering) into the parting surface 700, which is the mating surface where the in-mold coating fixed mold plate 13A and the in-mold coating runner stripper plate 12A come into contact with each other. Therefore, the burden of removing the leaked excess paint can be reduced, and the molding cycle can be improved.

[0130] The above description of the first embodiment is based on the following: a fixed mold 100B for a resin molded product, which is provided with a fixed mold plate 13B for a resin molded product and has a resin flow path consisting of sprues 111, 113, a runner 112, and a pin gate 114 through which injected resin for the molded product flows; and an in-mold coating fixed mold plate 13A, which is provided with a paint flow path consisting of sprues 111, 113, a runner 112, and a pin gate 114 through which injected paint consisting of a two-component mixed type thermosetting resin flows. A fixed-side mold for coating 100A, a movable-side mold 200 including a fixed-side mold plate for resin molded products 13B and a movable-side mold plate 23 that faces the fixed-side mold plate for in-mold coating 13A, and a resin flow path formed between the fixed-side mold for resin molded products 13B and the movable-side mold plate 23 by clamping the fixed-side mold for resin molded products 100B and the movable-side mold 200, in which resin for molding flows through a resin flow path consisting of sprues 111, 113, a runner 112, and a pin gate 114, is filled and solidified to form a resin A cavity 800 for a resin molded product for forming the molded product 500B is formed between the fixed-side mold plate 13A for in-mold coating and the movable-side mold plate 23 by clamping the fixed-side mold plate 100A for in-mold coating and the movable-side mold plate 200, and the resin molded product 500B is placed in a clearance 400C formed between the resin molded product 500B and the fixed-side mold plate 13A for in-mold coating and / or the movable-side mold plate 23. A coating gap consisting of sprues 111, 113, a runner 112, and a pin gate 114 is formed in the clearance 400C. and a cavity 400 for a painted resin molded product which is filled with paint that has flowed through a paint flow path and hardened to form a painted resin molded product 500 in which the paint is applied to a resin molded product 500B, and the surface roughness Rz of the parting surface 300 between the fixed side template 13A for in-mold painting and the movable side template 23 is 0.8 μm or less, preferably 0.6 μm or less, more preferably 0.4 μm or less, and even more preferably 0.2 μm or less.

[0131] Here, the fixed side mold 100B for the resin molded product is provided with a fixed side mold plate 13B for the resin molded product corresponding to one side of the resin molded product 500B, and is provided with a flow path through which the resin for the molded product injected from the resin injection nozzle N1 of the injection machine passes. The fixed side metal mold 100A for in-mold painting is equipped with a fixed side template 13A for in-mold painting corresponding to one side of the coated resin molded product 500, and is provided with a flow path through which paint injected from the resin injection nozzle N2 of the injection machine passes. In addition, the movable side mold 200 is equipped with a movable side plate 23 corresponding to the other side of the resin molded product 500B or the painted resin molded product 500, and is the side that performs reciprocating opening and closing motion, and is positioned opposite the fixed side plate 13B for resin molded products and the fixed side plate 13A for in-mold painting. The parting surface 300 is the dividing surface between the fixed side plate 13A for in-mold painting and the movable side plate 23, i.e., the mating surface where the fixed side plate 13A for in-mold painting and the movable side plate 23A come into contact when the fixed side metal mold 100A for in-mold painting and the movable side metal mold 200 are clamped together, and has a surface roughness Rz of 0.8 μm or less, preferably 0.6 μm or less, more preferably 0.4 μm or less, and even more preferably 0.2 μm or less.

[0132] According to the two-color molding die 1 of the first embodiment, the surface roughness Rz of the parting surface 300, which is the die mating surface where the in-mold coating fixed-side mold plate 13A and the movable-side mold plate 23 come into contact with each other by clamping the in-mold coating fixed-side mold plate 100A and the movable-side mold plate 200, is 0.8 μm or less, preferably 0.6 μm or less, more preferably 0.4 μm or less, and even more preferably 0.2 μm or less, is a highly accurate smooth surface, and even when the clearance 400C is filled with paint made of a low-viscosity two-liquid mixed thermosetting resin, the metal touch of the parting surface 300 can prevent the paint from leaking (entering) into the parting surface 300 of the in-mold coating fixed-side mold plate 13A and the movable-side mold plate 23. In addition, since the paint is a two-liquid mixed thermosetting resin, the paint can be sufficiently spread in the paint clearance 400C between the resin molded product 500B and the cavity forming surface 310. Furthermore, the fixed side metal mold 100A for in-mold painting and the fixed side metal mold 100B for the resin molded product are formed separately, and the resin molded product 500B is positioned by clamping the fixed side metal mold 100A for in-mold painting and the movable side metal mold 200 together, and a clearance 400C is formed between the resin molded product 500B and the fixed side template 13A for in-mold painting and / or the movable side template 23. Paint is filled into this clearance 400C in the clamped state, which also makes it difficult for paint to leak onto the parting surface 300 of the fixed side template 13A for in-mold painting and the movable side template 23. Thus, according to the two-color molding die 1 of the first embodiment, it is possible to prevent the occurrence of burrs without causing improper coating of paint.

[0133] Furthermore, according to the two-color molding mold 1 of the above-mentioned embodiment 1, the resin flow path through which the resin for the molded product flows and the paint flow path through which the paint flows are each formed from a primary sprue 111 extending in the same direction as the mold clamping direction of the molds 100A, 100B, a runner 112 that is connected to the primary sprue 111 and is formed in a direction approximately perpendicular to the primary sprue 111, a secondary sprue 113 that is connected to the runner 112 and extends in the same direction as the mold clamping direction, and a pin gate 114 that is connected to the secondary sprue 113 and to the cavities 400, 800.

[0134] Therefore, the fixed die 100A for in-mold coating and the fixed die 100B for resin molded products are provided with sprues 111, 113 and runners 112, respectively, and further, the gate for injecting resin or paint into the cavities 400, 800 is a pin gate 114, thereby reducing restrictions on the gate position and increasing the degree of freedom in designing the gate position that is less likely to cause molding defects such as sink marks and weld lines in accordance with the shape, specifications, and applications of the target coated resin molded product 500. In addition, the pin gate 114 allows for multiple pieces (multiple pieces), which makes it possible to increase mass productivity. And, since the pin gate 114 also allows for multiple gates, it is possible to set the flow distance of the resin from the gate to the flow end to be shorter, which makes it less likely to cause filling defects, and also makes it possible to further suppress the generation of air bubbles and burrs by hardening in a predetermined short time.

[0135] Furthermore, at the pin gate 114, the resin molded product 500B and the sprue / runner resin 600B can be separated by gate cutting when the fixed mold 100B and the movable mold 200 for resin molded products are opened, and the painted resin molded product 500 and the sprue / runner resin 600A can be separated by gate cutting when the fixed mold 100A and the movable mold 200 for in-mold painting are opened. Therefore, since gate processing is not required after removing the resin molded product 500B or the painted resin molded product 500, the productivity and molding cycle of the painted resin molded product 500 can be improved. Therefore, it is possible to increase the degree of freedom in setting the gate position to one that is less likely to cause molding defects, in accordance with the dimensions, shape, specifications, applications, design, etc. of the coated resin molded product 500.

[0136] In addition, according to the two-color molding die 1 of the first embodiment, the fixed-side die 100B for resin molded products has the runner stripper plate 12B for resin molding disposed on the side opposite to the cavity forming side of the fixed-side mold plate 13B for resin molded products, and the fixed-side attachment plate 11B for resin molded products is disposed on the side opposite to the fixed-side mold plate 13B for resin molded products of the runner stripper plate 12B for resin molding. During this process, the gap between the movable side mold plate 23 and the fixed side mold plate 13B for the resin molded product, and the gap between the fixed side mold plate 13B for the resin molded product and the runner stripper plate 12B for resin molding are opened to separate the resin molded product 500B formed in the cavity 800 for the molded product from the sprue / runner resin 600B in which the resin for the molded product has solidified in the resin molding flow path consisting of the sprues 111, 113, runner 112, and pin gate 114 of the fixed side mold 100B for the resin molded product. In the fixed die 100A for in-mold coating, a runner stripper plate 12A for in-mold coating is disposed on the side opposite to the cavity forming side of the fixed die plate 13A for in-mold coating, and a fixed attachment plate 11A for in-mold coating is disposed on the side opposite to the fixed die plate 13A for in-mold coating of the runner stripper plate 12A for in-mold coating. When the fixed die 100A for in-mold coating and the movable die 200 are opened, the movable die plate 23 and the in-mold coating By opening the space between the fixed side mold plate 13A for in-mold painting and the space between the fixed side mold plate 13A for in-mold painting and the runner stripper plate 12A for in-mold painting, the painted resin molded product 500 obtained by coating the resin molded product 500B with paint in the painting cavity 400 is separated from the sprue / runner resin 600A in which the paint has been thermally hardened in the flow path consisting of the sprues 111, 112, runner 113, and pin gate 114 of the fixed side mold 100A for in-mold painting.

[0137] In this way, according to the two-color molding mold 1 of the above-mentioned embodiment 1, the molded products 500B, 500 and the sprue / runner resin 600B, 600A are separated and removed by gate cutting when the mold is opened, so that gate processing is not required after the molded products 500B, 500 are removed, and since the sprue / runner resin 600B, 600A is also released from the mold, the productivity and molding cycle property of the painted resin molded product 500 can be further improved.

[0138] According to the two-color molding die 1 of the first embodiment, the runner 112 of the fixed die 100A for in-mold coating is formed between the fixed die 13A for in-mold coating and the runner stripper plate 12A for in-mold coating, and the surface roughness Rz of the divided surface 700 of the fixed die 13A for in-mold coating and the runner stripper plate 12A for in-mold coating is 0.8 μm or less, preferably 0.6 μm or less, more preferably 0.4 μm or less, and even more preferably 0.2 μm or less. Therefore, even when paint made of a two-liquid mixed type thermosetting resin with low viscosity passes through the runner 112, it is possible to prevent the paint from leaking (entering) into the mating surface where the fixed die 13A for in-mold coating and the runner stripper plate 12A for in-mold coating come into contact. Therefore, the burden of removing the excess paint that has leaked can be reduced, and the molding cycle can be improved.

[0139] According to the two-color molding die 1 of the above-mentioned embodiment 1, the fixed side die 100B for resin molded products and the fixed side die 100A for in-mold painting share the movable side die 200, and the fixed side die 100B for resin molded products and the fixed side die 100A for in-mold painting are exchanged for the movable side die 200, and the resin molded product 500B is molded in the two-color molding die 1, and is painted with paint without being taken out. Therefore, the injection molding of the resin molded product 500B and the molding (painting) of the paint film can be performed by controlling the temperature of the fixed side die 100B for resin molded products and the movable side die 200 that are suitable for those moldings. That is, since the temperatures of the fixed side die 100B for resin molded products and the fixed side die 100A for in-mold painting can be set individually, the injection molding of the resin molded product 500B and the painting by thermal curing of the paint can be performed under appropriate temperature control. In addition, the temperature during molding can also be used for thermal curing of the paint. Therefore, the thermal efficiency can be improved, and energy saving can be achieved.

[0140] The above description of the first embodiment has been made with respect to a resin molded product formed between the movable side mold 200 and the in-mold coating fixed side mold 100A, which is constituted by the in-mold coating fixed side mold 100A having the in-mold coating fixed side mold plate 13A and the movable side mold 200 having the movable side mold plate 23, and in which the surface roughness Rz of the parting surface 300 between the in-mold coating fixed side mold plate 13A and the movable side mold plate 23 of the in-mold coating mold 100A is 0.8 μm or less, preferably 0.6 μm or less, more preferably 0.4 μm or less, and even more preferably 0.2 μm or less, by clamping the in-mold coating fixed side mold 100A and the movable side mold 200 facing each other. It can also be regarded as an invention of a manufacturing method for a painted resin molded product 500, which includes a mold clamping process of forming a clearance 400C of the paint cavity 400 between the resin molded product 500B and the fixed side mold plate 100A for in-mold painting and / or the movable side mold plate 13 within the paint cavity 400 in which the resin molded product 500B is arranged, an injection process of injecting paint toward the clearance 400C, a painting process of hardening the paint that has been filled in the clearance 400C and coated the surface of the resin molded product 500B to form a painted resin molded product 500, and a mold opening process of opening the movable side mold 200 and the in-mold painting mold 10A and removing the painted resin molded product 500.

[0141] According to the manufacturing method of the coated resin molded product 500 of the above-mentioned embodiment 1, paint made of a two-component mixed type thermosetting resin having low viscosity is filled into the clearance 400C of the paint cavity 400 in the mold closed state, and further, since the parting surface 300 has a highly accurate smooth surface and thus has a metal touch, even when the paint made of a two-component mixed type thermosetting resin is filled into the clearance 400C of the paint cavity 400, leakage (intrusion) into the parting surface 300 of the fixed side mold plate 13A for in-mold painting and the movable side mold plate 23 can be suppressed, and the occurrence of burrs can be prevented.

[0142] That is, the surface roughness Rz of the parting surface 300, which is the mold mating surface where the in-mold coating fixed-side mold plate 13A and the movable-side mold plate 23 come into contact with each other by mold clamping, is 0.8 μm or less, preferably 0.6 μm or less, more preferably 0.4 μm or less, and even more preferably 0.2 μm or less, so that a highly accurate smooth surface is obtained, and even when paint made of a low-viscosity two-liquid mixed thermosetting resin is filled in the clearance 400C, the metal touch of the parting surface 300 can prevent the paint from leaking (entering) into the parting surface 300 of the in-mold coating fixed-side mold plate 13A and the movable-side mold plate 23. In addition, since the paint is a two-liquid mixed thermosetting resin, the paint can be sufficiently spread in the paint clearance 400C between the resin molded product 500B and the cavity forming surface 310.

[0143] Furthermore, when the fixed side metal mold 100A for in-mold painting and the movable side metal mold 200 are clamped together, a clearance 400C is formed between the resin molded product 500B and the fixed side mold plate 13A for in-mold painting and / or the movable side mold plate 23 in the painting cavity 400 in which the resin molded product 500B is placed, and paint is filled into this clearance 400C in the clamped state, which also makes it difficult for paint to leak onto the parting surface 300 of the fixed side mold plate 13A for in-mold painting and the movable side mold plate 23. That is, the surface roughness Rz of the parting surface 300 of the fixed side mold plate 13A for in-mold painting and the movable side mold plate 23 is 0.8 μm or less, preferably 0.6 μm or less, more preferably 0.4 μm or less, and even more preferably 0.2 μm or less. In addition, when the movable side mold 200 and the fixed side mold 100A for in-mold painting are clamped together, paint is filled into the clearance 400C. Since paint is filled into the clearance 400C between the movable side mold 200 and the fixed side mold 100A for in-mold painting when they are fixed with a strong clamping force, paint is less likely to leak onto the parting surface 300 of the movable side mold 200 and the fixed side mold 100A for in-mold painting, and burrs are further prevented from occurring. Thus, according to the method for producing the coated resin molded product 500 of the first embodiment, it is possible to suppress the occurrence of burrs without causing improper filling of paint.

[0144] The above description of the first embodiment has been made with respect to a primary clamping process in which a fixed-side mold 100B for a resin molded product having a fixed-side mold plate 13B for a resin molded product and a movable-side mold 200 having a movable-side mold plate 23 are clamped against each other to form a cavity 800 for a molded product between the fixed-side mold plate 13B for a resin molded product and the movable-side mold plate 23, an injection process in which molten resin is injected toward the cavity 800 for a molded product, and a final mold forming process in which the movable-side mold 200 and the fixed-side mold 100B for a resin molded product are cooled to form a cavity 800 for a molded product. The mold includes a molding step of molding the molten resin filled in the cavity 800 to produce a resin molded product 500B, a primary mold opening step of opening the movable mold 200 and the fixed mold 100B for resin molded products, a switching step of switching the fixed mold 200B for resin molding, which faces the movable mold 200 holding the resin molded product 500, to the fixed mold 100A for painting, and a mold closing step of closing the movable mold 200 and the fixed mold 100A for in-mold painting by facing each other. a secondary mold clamping process for forming a clearance 400C between the resin molded product 500B and the cavity forming surface 310 of the coating cavity 400 in which the resin molded product 500B is disposed and formed between the mounting fixed side mold 100A; an injection injection process for injecting paint made of a two-liquid mixed type thermosetting resin toward the clearance 400C; and a coating material filled in the clearance 400C and covering the surface of the resin molded product 500B is hardened to form the coated resin molded product 500. The invention can also be considered as a method for manufacturing a coated resin molded product 500, which includes a painting step and a secondary mold opening step of opening the movable side mold 200 and the fixed side mold 100A for in-mold painting and removing the coated resin molded product 500, and in which the surface roughness Rz of the parting surface 300 between the fixed side mold plate 13A for in-mold painting and the movable side mold plate 23 is 0.8 μm or less, preferably 0.6 μm or less, more preferably 0.4 μm or less, and even more preferably 0.2 μm or less.

[0145] According to the manufacturing method of the coated resin molded product 500 of the first embodiment, the surface roughness Rz of the parting surface 300, which is the mold mating surface where the in-mold coating fixed-side mold plate 13 and the movable-side mold plate 23 come into contact with each other by clamping the in-mold coating fixed-side mold 100A and the movable-side mold 200, is 0.8 μm or less, preferably 0.6 μm or less, more preferably 0.4 μm or less, and even more preferably 0.2 μm or less, is a highly accurate smooth surface, and even when the clearance 400C is filled with paint made of a low-viscosity two-liquid mixed thermosetting resin, the metal touch of the parting surface 300 can prevent the paint from leaking (entering) into the parting surface 300 of the in-mold coating fixed-side mold plate 13 and the movable-side mold plate 23. In addition, since the paint is a two-liquid mixed thermosetting resin, the paint can be sufficiently spread in the paint clearance 400C between the resin molded product 500B and the cavity forming surface 310.

[0146] Furthermore, when the fixed side metal mold 100A for in-mold painting and the movable side metal mold 200 are clamped together, a clearance 400C is formed between the resin molded product 500B and the fixed side template 13 for in-mold painting in the painting cavity 400 in which the resin molded product 500B is placed, and paint is filled into this clearance 400C in the clamped state, which also makes it difficult for paint to leak onto the parting surface 300, which is the mating surface of the fixed side template 13A for in-mold painting and the movable side template 23. That is, the surface roughness Rz of the parting surface 300 of the fixed side mold plate 13A for in-mold painting and the movable side mold plate 23 is 0.8 μm or less, preferably 0.6 μm or less, more preferably 0.4 μm or less, and even more preferably 0.2 μm or less. In addition, when the movable side mold 200 and the fixed side mold 100A for in-mold painting are clamped together, paint is filled into the clearance 400C. Since paint is filled into the clearance 400C between the movable side mold 200 and the fixed side mold 100A for in-mold painting when they are fixed with a strong clamping force, paint is less likely to leak onto the parting surface 300, which is the mating surface between the movable side mold 200 and the fixed side mold 100A for in-mold painting, and the occurrence of burrs is further prevented. Thus, according to the method for producing the coated resin molded product 500 of the first embodiment, it is possible to suppress the occurrence of burrs without causing improper filling of paint.

[0147] The above description of the first embodiment can also be understood as an invention of an in-mold coating method in which the in-mold coating fixed mold 100A and the movable mold 200 of the in-mold coating mold 10A, which includes the in-mold coating fixed mold 13A having the in-mold coating fixed mold plate 13A and the movable mold 200 having the movable mold plate 23, and which has a parting surface 300 between the in-mold coating fixed mold plate 13A and the movable mold plate 23 having a surface roughness Rz of 0.8 μm or less, preferably 0.6 μm or less, more preferably 0.4 μm or less, and even more preferably 0.2 μm or less, are clamped to form a clearance 400C between the resin molded product 500 arranged between the in-mold coating fixed mold plate 13A and the movable mold plate 23 and the in-mold coating fixed mold plate 13 and / or the movable mold plate 23, and a paint made of a thermosetting resin is filled in the clearance 400C to paint the resin molded product 500B.

[0148] Therefore, according to the in-mold painting method of the above-mentioned embodiment 1, paint made of a low-viscosity two-component mixed thermosetting resin is filled into the clearance 400C of the painting cavity 400 when the mold is closed, and since the parting surface 300 is a highly accurate smooth surface and has a metal-to-metal touch, even when the paint made of a two-component mixed thermosetting resin is filled into the clearance 400C of the painting cavity 400, leakage (intrusion) into the parting surface 300, which is the mating surface of the fixed side template 13A and the movable side template 23 for in-mold painting, can be suppressed, and the occurrence of burrs can be prevented.

[0149] That is, the surface roughness Rz of the parting surface 300, which is the mold mating surface where the fixed-side mold plate 13A for in-mold coating and the movable-side mold plate 23 come into contact with each other by clamping the mold, is 0.8 μm or less, preferably 0.6 μm or less, more preferably 0.4 μm or less, and even more preferably 0.2 μm or less, so that a highly accurate smooth surface is obtained, and even when paint made of a low-viscosity two-liquid mixed type thermosetting resin is filled in the clearance 400C, the metal touch of the parting surface 300 can prevent the paint from leaking (entering) into the parting surface 300 of the fixed-side mold plate 13A for in-mold coating and the movable-side mold plate 23. In addition, since the paint is a two-liquid mixed type thermosetting resin, the paint can be sufficiently spread in the paint clearance 400C between the resin molded product 500B and the cavity forming surface 310. Thus, according to the in-mold coating method of the above-mentioned embodiment 1, the occurrence of burrs can be suppressed without causing paint filling failure.

[0150] The above description of the first embodiment is based on the following: the fixed-side metal mold 100B for a resin molded product having the fixed-side mold plate 13B for a resin molded product and the movable-side metal mold 200 having the movable-side mold plate 23 are opposed to each other to form the resin molding metal mold 10B, the fixed-side metal mold 100B for a resin molded product and the movable-side metal mold 200 of the molded product metal mold 10B are clamped to form a molded product cavity 800 between the fixed-side mold plate 13B for a resin molded product and the movable-side mold plate 23, molten resin is filled into the molded product cavity 800 and solidified to form a resin molded product 500B, the fixed-side metal mold 100B and the movable-side metal mold 200 are opened, the fixed-side metal mold 100B for a resin molded product opposed to the movable-side metal mold 200 holding the resin molded product 500B is switched to the fixed-side metal mold 100A for in-mold painting, and the movable-side metal mold 200 holding the resin molded product 500B is closed. The invention can also be regarded as an invention of a two-color molding method in which the metal mold 200 and the fixed-side metal mold 100A for in-mold painting are opposed to each other to form the metal mold 10A for in-mold painting in which the surface roughness Rz of the parting surface between the fixed-side mold plate 13A for in-mold painting and the movable-side mold plate 23 is 0.8 μm or less, preferably 0.6 μm or less, more preferably 0.4 μm or less, and even more preferably 0.2 μm or less, and the fixed-side metal mold 100A for in-mold painting and the movable-side mold plate 200 are clamped to form a clearance 400C between the resin molded product 500B arranged between the fixed-side mold plate 13A for in-mold painting and the movable-side mold plate 23 and the fixed-side mold plate 13A for in-mold painting and / or the movable-side mold plate 23, and the clearance 400C is filled with paint made of a two-component mixed thermosetting resin to paint the resin molded product 500B.

[0151] According to the in-mold coating method of the first embodiment, the surface roughness Rz of the parting surface 300, which is the mold mating surface where the in-mold coating fixed-side mold plate 13 and the movable-side mold plate 23 come into contact with each other by clamping the in-mold coating fixed-side mold 100A and the movable-side mold 200, is 0.8 μm or less, preferably 0.6 μm or less, more preferably 0.4 μm or less, and even more preferably 0.2 μm or less, is a highly accurate smooth surface, and even when the clearance 400C is filled with paint made of a low-viscosity two-liquid mixed thermosetting resin, the metal touch of the parting surface 300 can prevent the paint from leaking (entering) into the parting surface 300 of the in-mold coating fixed-side mold plate 13 and the movable-side mold plate 23. In addition, since the paint is a two-liquid mixed thermosetting resin, the paint can be sufficiently spread in the paint clearance 400C between the resin molded product 500B and the cavity forming surface 310. Furthermore, when the fixed side metal mold 100A for in-mold painting and the movable side metal mold 200 are clamped together, a clearance 400C is formed between the resin molded product 500B and the fixed side mold plate 13 for in-mold painting or the movable side mold plate 23 in the painting cavity 400 in which the resin molded product 500B is placed.Since paint is filled into this clearance 400C in the clamped state, paint is less likely to leak onto the parting surfaces 300 of the fixed side mold plate 13A for in-mold painting and the movable side mold plate 23. Thus, according to the two-color molding method of the first embodiment, it is possible to suppress the occurrence of burrs without causing imperfect coating of paint.

[0152] In the above embodiment 1, two types of fixed side dies are used: a fixed side die for molded products 100B for molding the resin molded product 500B, and a fixed side die for painting 100A for painting the surface of the resin molded product 500B with paint made of a two-component mixed thermosetting resin. After injection molding of the resin molded product 500B using the die for molded products 10B, the fixed side die for molded products 100B is replaced with the fixed side die for painting 100A, and a clearance 400C is formed between the resin molded product 500B placed in the fixed side die for painting 100A, and paint made of a two-component mixed thermosetting resin is injected into the clearance 400C to paint the paint made of a two-component mixed thermosetting resin on the surface of the resin molded product 500B. Therefore, the in-mold coating fixed metal mold 100A and the resin molding fixed metal mold 100B are formed separately, and a flow path for passing paint is not provided in the molded product metal mold 10B, so the degree of freedom in metal mold design can be increased. Also, unlike the case where one fixed metal mold is used for both molding and painting, there is no need for temperature control for increasing and decreasing the temperature within a limited molding time, so the molding cycle can be shortened, and the absence of a complex temperature control mechanism increases the degree of freedom in metal mold design and also allows for energy savings.

[0153] Incidentally, when carrying out the present invention, the two-color molding die 1 may be arranged such that the fixed die 100B for molded product and the fixed die 100A for painting are arranged side by side at symmetrical positions on the side of a fixed platen (not shown), a pair of movable die 200 are arranged at opposing positions, and these are attached to a rotating plate provided on the inner surface of a movable platen (not shown), and the rotating plate is rotated back and forth by a rotating shaft inside the movable platen connected to the center, thereby switching between the pair of movable die 200. Alternatively, the pair of movable die 200 may be arranged on the front and back sides of the rotating platen, and switching may be performed by rotating the front and back. In this case, after injection molding of the resin molded product 500B is completed with one of the pair of movable molds 200, the mold is opened, the rotating plate is rotated, and the mold is closed facing the fixed mold for painting 100A for painting with paint. Meanwhile, the other of the pair of movable molds 200 faces the fixed mold for molded product 100B and closes to perform injection molding. In other words, by using two or more movable side molds 200, it is possible to simultaneously carry out a process of closing one movable side mold 200 and the fixed side mold 100B for a resin molded product to form a molded product cavity 800 for forming the resin molded product 500B between the movable side mold 200 and the fixed side mold 100B for a resin molded product, filling the molded product cavity 800 with a resin for the molded product and cooling and solidifying it to form the resin molded product 500B, and a process of closing another movable side mold 200 holding another resin molded product 500B and the fixed side mold 100A for painting to form a paint cavity 400 between the resin molded product 500B and the fixed side mold 100A for painting, forming a clearance 400C of a paint cavity 400 for painting the resin molded product 500B with paint made of a thermosetting resin between the resin molded product 500B and the fixed side mold 100A for painting, and injecting paint into the clearance 400C and solidifying it. The two or more movable-side molds 200 may have the same or different shapes of the movable-side mold plates 23.

[0154] When a pair of movable molds 200 are alternately replaced by rotational movement relative to the fixed mold for molded products 100B and the fixed mold for painting 100A arranged side by side in this manner, the turntable is rotated each time the mold is opened, and resin molding and painting can be performed simultaneously, so that the number of shots per unit time can be increased. This results in higher production efficiency than a method in which the fixed mold for molded products 100B and the fixed mold for painting 100A are alternately replaced by sliding movement relative to the movable mold 200, making it suitable for mass production. In other words, while the resin molded product 500B is being painted using the movable mold 200 and the fixed mold for painting 100A, another resin molded product 500B can be formed using the movable mold 200 and the fixed mold for molded products 100B, and the painted resin molded product 500 can be manufactured at the same time as the resin molded product 500B is formed, making it suitable for mass production.

[0155] In the above description, the fixed-side mold for molded products 100B and the fixed-side mold for painting 100A are fixed to a fixed platen, and the pair of movable-side molds 200 are fixed to a movable platen (not shown) of the injection molding device or a rotating platen attached to the movable platen, but the pair of movable-side molds 200 may be fixed to a fixed platen, and the fixed-side mold for molded products 100B and the fixed-side mold for painting 100A may be fixed to a movable platen of the injection molding device or a rotating platen attached to the movable platen. Also, the fixed-side mold for molded products 100B and the fixed-side mold for painting 100A may be fixed together on both sides, and switched by rotating the front and back so as to face the movable-side mold 200.

[0156] In addition, when implementing the present invention, the cavity forming surface 310 of the fixed side painting template 13A or the movable side template 23 may be subjected to a mirror finish, a grain finish, a boss finish, etc., and this may be transferred to the painting surface.

[0157] Incidentally, in the in-mold coating metal mold 10A in the first embodiment, a paint flow path made of a two-component mixed thermosetting resin is formed in the in-mold coating fixed metal mold 100A side with a pin gate structure, but when implementing the present invention, it is not limited to the pin gate structure, and the paint flow path may be formed in the movable metal mold 200 side. In other words, the paint flow path can be formed in the in-mold coating fixed metal mold 100A and / or the movable metal mold 200.

[0158] In the in-mold coating metal mold 10A of the first embodiment, the clearance 400C into which paint made of a two-component mixed thermosetting resin is filled is formed on one side of the resin molded product 500B placed in the cavity 400, that is, the clearance 400C is provided between the in-mold coating fixed side template 13A and the resin molded product 500B placed in the coating cavity 400, and paint made of a two-component mixed thermosetting resin is applied to one side of the resin molded product 500B. However, when the present invention is implemented, In another embodiment, a clearance 400C is formed on both one and the other sides of the resin molded product 500 placed in the cavity 400 for painting, that is, a clearance 400C is provided between the fixed side template 13A for in-mold painting and the resin molded product 500B placed in the cavity 400 for painting, and a clearance 400C is also provided between the movable side template 23 and the resin molded product 500B placed in the cavity 400 for painting, and the entire peripheral surface of the resin molded product 500B is painted with paint made of a two-component mixed thermosetting resin.

[0159] In particular, in the conventional method of preventing the occurrence of burrs by using a resin touch, only one side of the resin molded product 500 can be painted with paint made of a two-component mixed thermosetting resin, whereas in the present invention, by realizing a metal touch by giving the parting surface 300 a specified surface roughness, it is possible to prevent the occurrence of burrs and also to pour paint made of a two-component mixed thermosetting resin on both sides (entire peripheral surfaces) of the resin molded product 500B, thereby making it possible to obtain a coated resin molded product 500 in which both sides (entire peripheral surfaces) are painted with a two-component mixed thermosetting resin.

[0160] [Embodiment 2] Second Embodiment Next, an injection molding die 10 according to a second embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to FIGS. In this embodiment 2, the injection molding die 10 constituting the injection molding apparatus is used for single-color molding and is composed of a fixed die 100 and a movable die 200. By closing (clamping) the fixed die 100 and the movable die 200, a cavity 400 corresponding to the shape of a resin molded product 50 made of a two-component mixed thermosetting resin is formed, and this cavity 400 is filled with a two-component mixed thermosetting resin for molding. By opening (opening) the fixed die 100 and the movable die 200, the resin molded product 50 made of a two-component mixed thermosetting resin molded in the cavity 400 is removed. In addition, materials that can be used for the injection molding die 10 for molding two-component mixed type thermosetting resin include, for example, carbon steel for mechanical construction (S45C, S50C, S55C, etc.), chromium molybdenum steel (SCM4, etc.), carbon tool steel (SK7, etc.), die steel (SKD4, SKD5, SKD6, SKD61, etc.), high-speed steel (SKH2, etc.), etc.

[0161] The fixed side mold 100 is the side that is fixed to the injection molding apparatus, and is composed of a fixed side mounting plate 11, a runner stripper plate 12, and a fixed side mold plate (also called the cavity plate, fixed side main plate, or female mold) 13.

[0162] The fixed-side mounting plate 11 is attached to a fixed platen (not shown) that is fixed on the base of the injection molding machine. A locating ring (not shown) for positioning that corresponds to an opening formed in the center of the fixed platen can be attached to this fixed-side mounting plate 11 by tightening bolts or the like, and by aligning the locating ring, which has a hole formed in the center, with the opening in the center of the fixed platen, the nozzle N of the resin injector and the primary sprue 111 provided in the fixed-side mold 100 can be precisely aligned.

[0163] The runner stripper plate 12 is used to separate the sprue / runner resin 60 from the resin molded product 50, and is disposed between the fixed side attachment plate 11 and the fixed side mold plate 13. The fixed-side mold plate 13 forms a cavity 400 between itself and the movable-side mold plate 23, and the surface opposite to the surface facing the runner stripper plate 12 is a parting surface 300 facing the movable-side mold plate 23. In Fig. 16 to Fig. 21, the cavity forming surface 310 in the parting surface 300 on the fixed-side mold plate 13 side is formed in a concave shape.

[0164] A sprue bush 119 is provided in the fixed side mounting plate 11 and the runner stripper plate 12 so as to penetrate them. In the sprue bush 119, a large conical through hole is formed in the direction in which the resin flows as a primary sprue 111, which is a resin flow path into which the two-component mixed thermosetting resin injected from the nozzle N of the injection machine first flows into the injection mold 10. The primary sprue 111 is provided coaxially with the injection direction of the two-component mixed thermosetting resin. The sprue bush 119 is composed of, for example, a flange-shaped nozzle touch portion to which the nozzle N of the injection machine is closely attached, and a cylindrical portion in which the primary sprue 111 is formed as a resin flow path into which the two-component mixed thermosetting resin injected from the nozzle N closely attached to the nozzle touch portion flows, and is inserted into the fixed side mounting plate 11 and the runner stripper plate 12, and is attached and fixed to the fixed side mounting plate 11 with a fixing device such as a screw.

[0165] Between the runner stripper plate 12 and the fixed side mold plate 13 , a runner 112 which is a resin flow passage communicating with the primary sprue 111 is provided in a direction approximately perpendicular to the longitudinal direction of the primary sprue 111 . Furthermore, the fixed side mold plate 13 is provided with a secondary sprue 113, which is a resin flow path communicating with the runner 112, in parallel with the injection direction of the two-component mixed thermosetting resin. A pin gate 114 having a gate opening formed in the cavity forming surface 310 of the fixed-side mold plate 13 is provided at the tip of the secondary sprue 113. This pin gate 114 is provided on the axis of the secondary sprue 113 and is the part with the smallest diameter in the resin flow path. It has a gate opening that opens in the cavity forming surface 310 of the fixed-side mold plate 13 and communicates with the secondary sprue 113 and the cavity 400.

[0166] The secondary sprue 113 and the pin gate 114 at its tip have a circular cross-sectional shape perpendicular to their axes, and the secondary sprue 113 has a shape in which the cross-sectional area is reduced toward the tip side in the direction in which the thermosetting resin flows, i.e., toward the pin gate 114 side. Preferably, the shape is gradually reduced toward the tip side, and further, it is preferable that the reduction rate of the cross-sectional area is larger near the tip than near the base side. Also, it is preferable that the pin gate 114 is a cone shape with a taper that reduces in diameter toward the gate opening at the gate tip, and further, it is preferable that the length of the gate land is, for example, about 1 to 2 times the diameter of the gate opening at the gate tip. As a result, when the mold is opened, the resin 600 solidified in the sprues 111, 113 and the runner 112 does not remain in the sprues 111, 113 and the runner 112, and is easily released from the sprues 111, 113 and the runner 112, and further, the cutting residue of the protruding gate on the surface of the resin molded product 50 can be suppressed to a small value. The opening shape at the tip of the pin gate 114 may be circular, elliptical, or flat. Such shapes can be formed by cutting and polishing with a rotating object such as a drill.

[0167] In Figures 16 to 21, a plurality of cavities 400 having an inner shape corresponding to the shape of the desired resin molded product 50 are formed between the fixed side mold plate 13 and the movable side mold plate 23, and runners 112 are provided branching off from the primary sprue 111 into two or more, and secondary sprues 113 and pin gates 114 are provided from each of the runners 112 to one of the cavities 400, resulting in a multi-cavity configuration.

[0168] In addition, in Figs. 16 to 21, the secondary sprue 113 and the pin gate 114 are formed as holes drilled in the fixed-side mold plate 13, but in the case of implementing the present invention, the secondary sprue 113 and the pin gate 114 may be provided in the fixed-side mold plate 13 in such a manner that a sprue-gate bush in which the secondary sprue 113 and the pin gate 114 are formed separately from the fixed-side mold plate 13 is fitted into a bush insertion hole formed in the fixed-side mold plate 13. In particular, when the gate opening is set to 1 mm or less, it is preferable to use a gate bush. With a gate bush, it is relatively easy to form a small gate opening with high accuracy by electroforming or electric discharge machining. The gate bush may be a combination of divided parts and inserted into a bush insertion hole formed in the fixed-side mold plate 13.

[0169] Thus, the injection molding die 10 of the second embodiment has a three-plate structure consisting of the runner stripper plate 12, the fixed side mold plate 13, and the movable side mold plate 23. The fixed side mounting plate 11 and the runner stripper plate 12 have a primary sprue 111 arranged coaxially with the injection direction of the two-component mixed thermosetting resin. A runner 112 is formed between the runner stripper plate 12 and the fixed side mold plate 13, which is connected to the primary sprue 111 and arranged approximately perpendicular to the primary sprue 111. The fixed side mold plate 13 has a secondary sprue 113 which is connected to the runner 112 and arranged parallel to the injection direction of the two-component mixed thermosetting resin. At the tip of the secondary sprue 113, a pin gate 114 is provided which forms a gate opening on the cavity forming surface 310 of the fixed side mold plate 13. When the fixed side mold 100 and the movable side mold 200 are clamped, a cavity 400 is formed between the fixed side mold plate 13 and the movable side mold plate 23, and the pin gate 114 formed at the tip of the secondary sprue 113 in the fixed side mold plate 13 communicates with the cavity 400 via a gate opening formed in the cavity forming surface 310.

[0170] The fixed-side die 100, which is composed of the fixed-side attachment plate 11, the runner stripper plate 12, and the fixed-side mold plate 13, has a plurality of (for example, four) support pins 161 fixed to the fixed-side attachment plate 11. The support pins 161 guide the sliding of the runner stripper plate 12 and the fixed-side mold plate 13. The support pins 161 are inserted into a plurality of (for example, four) support pin bushes provided on each of the runner stripper plate 12 and the fixed-side mold plate 13, so that the runner stripper plate 12 and the fixed-side mold plate 13 are slidable relative to the fixed-side attachment plate 11. That is, the fixed-side attachment plate 11, the runner stripper plate 12, and the fixed-side mold plate 13 are connected by the support pins 161, and the runner stripper plate 12 and the fixed-side mold plate 13 are slidable using the support pins 161 as guides. Furthermore, the support pins 161 are also inserted into bushes (through holes) provided in the movable side mold plate 23 and the spacer block 24, and the movable side mold plate 23 is also slidable using the support pins 161 as a guide.

[0171] A runner lock pin 163 is attached and fixed to the fixed-side mounting plate 11, penetrating the runner stripper plate 12 and reaching the runner 112. The runner lock pin 163 is composed of a head portion inserted into a pin hole formed in the fixed-side mounting plate 11, a shaft portion extending in the axial direction from the head portion so as to penetrate the runner stripper plate 112 and having a smaller diameter than the head portion, and a runner lock portion formed in an undercut shape at the tip of the shaft portion and protruding into the runner 112 formed between the fixed-side mold plate 13 and the runner stripper plate 12. The runner lock pin 163 is capable of locking the runner 112 because the runner lock portion, which is the tip portion that reaches the runner 112, is formed in an undercut shape, so that the runner lock pin 163 can be separated from the resin molded product 50 with the sprue / runner resin 60 attached to the runner stripper plate 12 side when the space between the fixed-side mold plate 13 and the runner stripper plate 12 is opened. In addition, since the two-component mixed thermosetting resin injected into the injection molding die 10 has low viscosity, the runner lock portion is unlikely to break even if it is not machined into a complex shape that is unlikely to break. Therefore, the runner lock pin 163 can be an inexpensive part.

[0172] Furthermore, one or more puller bolts 164 are inserted into the runner stripper plate 12 and the fixed-side mold plate 13. The puller bolts 164 are screwed into stop bolts 165 attached to the fixed-side mounting plate 11 and fixed to the runner stripper plate 12, so as to limit the mold opening stroke between the fixed-side mold plate 13 and the runner stripper plate 12. The puller bolt 164 is generally provided with a spring (not shown) so that when the mold is opened, the gap between the fixed side mold plate 13 and the runner stripper plate 12 is opened first by the repulsive force of the spring, and the pin gate 114 portion between the resin molded product 50 and the sprue / runner resin 60 is cut first. In this way, in the injection molding die 1 of this embodiment 2, due to the pin gate structure, the gate is not cut when the resin molded product 50 is ejected, but the resin molded product 50 has its gate cut when the die is opened.

[0173] The movable side mold 200 facing the fixed side mold 100 is the side that is attached to a movable platen (not shown) of the mold clamping device of the injection molding apparatus, and is freely movable forward and backward relative to the fixed side mold 100, and is composed of a movable side mounting plate 21, a spacer block 24, an ejector plate 25, an ejector pin 26, a movable side receiving plate 29, a movable side mold plate 23, etc.

[0174] The movable side mounting plate 21 is connected to a movable platen of an injection molding machine, and has an ejector hole in the center through which an ejector rod 225 passes. The spacer block 24 is fixedly attached to the movable mounting plate 21 between the movable mounting plate 21 and the movable receiving plate 29, and forms a space for the ejection action by the ejector plate 25 and the ejector pins 26.

[0175] The ejector plate 25 is disposed in the space defined by the spacer block 24 arranged between the movable side mounting plate 21 and the movable side receiving plate 29, and moves forward and backward toward the movable side receiving plate 29 and the movable side mold plate 23. The ejector pin 26 is fixed to the ejector plate 25 and protrudes from the ejector plate 25. One or more ejector pins 26 are provided and are inserted into holes drilled through the movable-side receiving plate 29 and the movable-side mold plate 23 and the insert 23a fitted therein, so that the ejector rod 225 pushes out (advances) the ejector plate 25 to eject the resin molded product 50 remaining on the parting surface 300 of the movable-side mold plate 23.

[0176] Further, the movable side receiving plate (pressure receiving plate) 29 is fixed to the spacer block 24, and a guide pin 215 and the like are attached and fixed thereto. The movable side mold plate 23 is fixed to the front side of the movable side receiving plate 29, and forms a cavity 400 between itself and the fixed side mold plate 13. This movable side mold plate 23 is fixed via a spacer block 24 and the movable side receiving plate 29 to a movable side mounting plate 21 which is attached to the movable platen of the injection molding device. The surface of the movable side mold plate 23 which faces the fixed side mold plate 13 is the parting surface 300. In Figures 16 to 21, the convex nest 23a is fitted into the movable side mold plate 23, so that the cavity forming surface 310 is convex.

[0177] A return pin 27 is inserted through the movable-side mold plate 13, and one end of the return pin 27 is fixed to the ejector plate 25. A return spring 28 that urges the ejector plate 25 in a backward direction is attached around the return pin 27, and the repulsive force of the return spring 28 allows the ejector plate 25 to move away from the movable-side receiving plate 29 and the movable-side mold plate 23 side and return to its original position after the ejector pin 26 ejects the resin molded product 50. That is, the ejection mechanism consisting of the ejector plate 25, the ejector pin 26, the return pin 27, etc., is capable of ejecting the resin molded product 50 remaining on the cavity forming surface 310 on the movable mold 200 side.

[0178] The fixed side mold 100 and the movable side mold 200 are aligned by having multiple (e.g., four) guide pins 162 fixed to the fixed side mounting plate 11 of the fixed side mold 100 fitted into multiple guide bushes (guide bearings) 169 provided on the fixed side mold plate 23 of the fixed side mold 100 to guide their sliding when the molds are closed. The fixed mold 100 and the movable mold 200 are connected by a tension link 171. The tension link 171 has a long hole extending in its longitudinal direction, and limits the mold opening stroke between the fixed mold plate 13 and the movable mold plate 23 when the fixed mold 100 and the movable mold 200 are opened from the clamped state.

[0179] The fixed mold 100 and the movable mold 200 thus configured are clamped to form a cavity 400 corresponding to the shape of the resin molded product 50 between the fixed mold 100 and the movable mold 200. In the clamped state, the cavity 400 formed between the fixed mold 100 and the movable mold 200 is filled with a two-component mixed thermosetting resin, which is thermally cured in the cavity 400 to form the resin molded product 50.

[0180] Here, as a result of intensive experimental research, the inventors have found that by setting the surface roughness Rz of the parting surface 300, which is the separation surface between the fixed side mold plate 13 of the fixed side mold 100 and the movable side mold plate 23 of the movable side mold 200 that constitute the injection molding die 10, to 0.8 μm or less, preferably 0.6 μm or less, more preferably 0.4 μm or less, and even more preferably 0.2 μm or less, even when the two-component mixed thermosetting resin is filled into the cavity 400, leakage of the two-component mixed thermosetting resin to the parting surface 300, which is the mating surface (abutment surface) of the fixed side mold plate 13 and the movable side mold plate 23, is suppressed, and the occurrence of burrs is prevented.

[0181] This is believed to be because the surface roughness Rz of the parting surface 300 between the fixed-side mold plate 13 and the movable-side mold plate 23 is 0.8 μm or less, preferably 0.6 μm or less, more preferably 0.4 μm or less, and even more preferably 0.2 μm or less. Since the parting surface 300 between the fixed-side mold plate 13 and the movable-side mold plate 23 is a highly accurate smooth surface, a high degree of adhesion can be obtained between the parting surface 300 between the fixed-side mold plate 13 and the movable-side mold plate 23, that is, the parting surface 300 between the fixed-side mold plate 13 and the movable-side mold plate 23 is in metal-to-metal contact, and furthermore, the wettability of the resin to the highly accurate smooth surface is low. Therefore, it is believed that the two-component mixed thermosetting resin is less likely to leak onto the parting surface 300 between the fixed-side mold plate 13 and the movable-side mold plate 23, and the occurrence of burrs is suppressed.

[0182] Furthermore, since the two-component curing thermosetting resin is injected into the cavity 400 through the pin gate 114, the two-component mixed thermosetting resin can be sufficiently distributed throughout the cavity 400, making it difficult for filling defects to occur. Naturally, since a high injection pressure is not required, resin leakage is also prevented.

[0183] In addition, in the injection molding die 10 of this embodiment 2, the runner 112 of the fixed side die 100 is formed between the fixed side mold plate 13 and the runner stripper plate 12, and the surface roughness Rz of the parting surface 700 of the fixed side mold plate 13 and the runner stripper plate 12 is also 0.8 μm or less, preferably 0.6 μm or less, more preferably 0.4 μm or less, and even more preferably 0.2 μm or less. Therefore, even when a two-component mixed type thermosetting resin having low viscosity passes through the runner 112, it is possible to prevent the resin from leaking (entering) into the mating surface where the fixed side mounting plate 11 and the runner stripper plate 12A come into contact at the dividing surface 700 of the fixed side mounting plate 11 and the runner stripper plate 12. This reduces the burden of the process of discharging the leaked excess resin, improves the molding cycle, and increases the productivity of the resin molded product 50.

[0184] The surface roughness Rz of the parting surface 300, which is the separating surface between the fixed-side mold plate 13 of the fixed-side die 100 and the movable-side mold plate 23 of the movable-side die 200, is 0.8 μm or less, preferably 0.6 μm or less, more preferably 0.4 μm or less, and even more preferably 0.2 μm or less. The surface roughness Rz of the separating surface 700 of the fixed-side mold plate 13 and the runner stripper plate 12 is 0.8 μm or less, preferably 0.6 μm or less, more preferably 0.4 μm or less, and even more preferably 0.2 μm or less, which is obtained by improving the surface precision to a mirror-like state, for example, by polishing a hard base material, which is the die material, with a grindstone, sandpaper, diamond paste, or the like, or by surface treatment such as nitriding, plating with hard chrome, electroless nickel, or the like, anodizing, resin coating with fluororesin, or the like, ceramic coating, or hardening / coating treatment such as micro shot peening (for example, CVD method, PVD method, DLC method, or the like). The surface roughness was measured using a laser microscope (Surfcom NEX140DX, manufactured by Tokyo Seimitsu Co., Ltd.) and calculated as the maximum height roughness (Rz) in accordance with JIS B 0601:2001.

[0185] In the second embodiment, a two-liquid mixed type thermosetting resin is molded using the injection molding die 10 having such a configuration. The two-liquid mixed type thermosetting resin is cured by the polymerization reaction caused by heat, and examples of such resins include silicone resins, phenol resins, epoxy resins, polyurethane resins, polyimide resins, vinyl resins, alkyd resins, melamine resins, urea resins, and unsaturated polyester resins. Such two-liquid mixed type thermosetting resins are mixed with a base material (first liquid) containing a thermosetting resin and a curing agent (second liquid) containing a polymerization initiator, and then injected into the injection molding die 10 from the nozzle N of an injection machine. The first liquid containing a thermosetting resin and the second liquid containing a polymerization initiator may contain additives such as pigments, ceramics, metals, fibers (carbon fibers, glass fibers, cellulose fibers, aramid fibers, etc.), wax, flame retardants, antioxidants, and heat stabilizers. In addition, since the first and second liquids of the two-liquid mixed thermosetting resin undergo a slow polymerization reaction even at room temperature when mixed, it is usually preferable to mix them just before injection into the injection mold 10. Such two-liquid mixed thermosetting resin has good room temperature stability until the main agent is mixed with the curing agent, and has excellent storage properties. In addition, the resin molded product 50 obtained by curing such a two-liquid mixed thermosetting resin has a three-dimensional network structure and is excellent in heat resistance and solvent resistance.

[0186] The viscosity of the two-liquid mixed thermosetting resin when injected from the resin injection nozzle N of the resin injection machine is, for example, 4 × 10 at 50 ° C to 90 ° C. 2 (mPa s) or less, preferably 8×10 1 (mPa s) or less, more preferably 4×10 1 (mPa s) or less. When melting pellets of thermoplastic resin generally used in injection molding and filling a cavity 400 corresponding to a thin wall or a complex shape, it is necessary to make the gate large to make the resin flow easily, but if it is a resin with a certain low viscosity, it has good fluidity, and even with a pin gate 114 with a small gate diameter, the flow of the resin can be ensured and it is possible to spread to every corner of the cavity 400 corresponding to a thin wall shape. That is, even in resin molding with a thin thickness or a complex shape, filling failure can be prevented. In addition, such a two-liquid mixed reaction type thermosetting resin can suppress expansion and contraction due to temperature change more than thermoplastic resin, so that sink defects can be prevented even in paint molding with a thick wall or a complex shape. And because it has good fluidity, it is difficult to generate weld lines even in a multi-point gate.

[0187] The two-liquid mixed thermosetting resin to be molded using the injection mold 10 is preferably a thermosetting resin having a viscosity of 1.15×10 at 70° C. or higher. 2 (mPa s), and its viscosity at 30°C or less is 6×10 2 (mPa s) or less, and more preferably 1×10 2 (mPa s) or less, and more preferably 8×10 1 (mPa s) or less. For example, polyurethane or silicone is used. More preferably, it is a two-liquid mixture type thermosetting resin that cures at room temperature. For the viscosity of general synthetic resins at a temperature of 260°C, the molding temperature must be high, and the mold must be heat resistant. In contrast, it is preferable to use a resin with a viscosity of 1.15×10 at 70°C or higher. 2 (mPa s), and has a viscosity of 6×10 below 30°C. 2 (mPa s) or less, and more preferably 1×10 2 (mPa s) or less, and more preferably 8×10 1 When a two-component mixed thermosetting resin with a viscosity of less than (mPa·s) is injected, it is sufficient to heat it to the curing temperature, so mold and energy costs can be reduced and the injection molding equipment is easy to manage.

[0188] For example, when polyurethane is used as the two-liquid mixed thermosetting resin, the main component polyol B (Puroclear 3351 IT) and the curing agent isocyanate A (Puronate 960 / 1) are mixed and injected into the injection mold 1 . That is, the viscosity of the two-liquid mixture of isocyanate A and polyol B at 70°C to 90°C is 1.15 x 10 2 (mPa s), and its viscosity at 30°C or less is 6×10 2 (mPa s) or less, more preferably 1×10 2 (mPa s) or less, and more preferably 8×10 1 (mPa·s) or less. In the case of a two-component thermosetting resin made of isocyanate A and polyol B, the viscosity weakens at temperatures between 60 and 90°C, and the relatively low viscosity remains stable within this temperature range. Therefore, when the resin is injected within this temperature range, the high fluidity allows the polyurethane resin to be filled into every corner, even in cavities 400 that have thin or complex shapes.

[0189] Next, a method for producing a resin molded product 50 by molding a two-component mixed type thermosetting resin using the injection molding die 10 having such a configuration will be described. The manufacturing method of the resin molded product 50 in this embodiment 2 includes a mold clamping process of clamping the fixed side mold 100 and the movable side mold 200 together, an injection process of injecting a two-component mixed thermosetting resin into the cavity 400 formed by clamping the fixed side mold 100 and the movable side mold 200 together, a molding process of thermally curing and molding the two-component mixed thermosetting resin filled in the cavity 400 in the fixed side mold 100 and the movable side mold 200 to form the resin molded product 50, and a mold opening process of opening the fixed side mold 100 and the movable side mold 200 and removing the resin molded product 50.

[0190] As shown in Fig. 16, first, in the mold clamping step, the fixed mold 100 and the movable mold 200 are clamped to bring the movable mold plate 23 of the movable mold 200 into contact with the fixed mold plate 13 of the fixed mold 100, the runner stripper plate 12 into contact with the fixed mold plate 13 on the opposite side to the contact side with the movable mold plate 23, and the runner stripper plate 12 into contact with the fixed mounting plate 11 on the opposite side to the contact side with the fixed mold plate 13. As a result, a runner 112 is formed between the runner stripper plate 12 and the fixed mold plate 13 as a resin supply passage, and a parting surface 300 between the fixed mold plate 13 and the movable mold plate 23 is closed to form a cavity 400 for the resin molded product 50. As the mold clamping mechanism, for example, a toggle type mold clamping mechanism or a direct pressure type mold clamping mechanism using a hydraulic cylinder or an electromagnetic cylinder can be used.

[0191] In this state, in the injection process, a two-component mixed thermosetting resin is injected from a nozzle N provided at the tip of the cylinder of a resin injection machine set on the fixed side mounting plate 11 at a predetermined injection pressure (e.g., 100 to 200 bar, preferably 120 to 180 bar) and temperature (e.g., 60 to 90°C, preferably 60 to 70°C). At this time, the closed movable mold 200 and fixed mold 100 are preheated to a temperature at which the thermosetting resin can be sufficiently hardened (e.g., a mold temperature of 20 to 150°C, preferably 70 to 90°C), and the thermosetting resin is injected into the movable mold 200 and fixed mold 100 in this state.

[0192] The resin injection machine (not shown) is driven by a drive device, and a valve, for example, is attached to the resin injection port, making it possible to adjust the injection amount of thermosetting resin, which is a mixture of two liquids. The resin injection machine includes, for example, a measuring cylinder for measuring the resin, an injector having an on-off valve for injecting the resin, a controller for controlling the measurement and the on-off valve, and a resin tank. When injecting the resin, the injector opens, and the resin measured by the measuring cylinder is discharged from the injector. In addition, the machine generally includes a resin circulation / cooling mechanism for preventing the resin from hardening in the injection machine, and the resin put into the resin tank is circulated.

[0193] When a two-component mixed thermosetting resin is injected into the closed movable mold 200 and fixed mold 100, as shown in FIG. 17, the injected two-component mixed thermosetting resin is poured into the primary sprue 111 of the sprue bush 119 provided on the fixed mounting plate 11 and the runner stripper plate 12 of the fixed mold 100, flows from the primary sprue 111 into the runner 112 provided between the runner stripper plate 12 and the fixed mold plate 13, and further flows from the runner 112 into the secondary sprue 113 provided on the fixed mold plate 13, passes through the pin gate 114 provided at the tip of the sprue, and is filled into the clamped cavity 400 from the pin gate opening formed on the cavity forming surface 310 of the fixed mold plate 13. Then, in the molding process, the two-component mixed thermosetting resin is cured by holding the mixture in a heated state at a predetermined temperature for a predetermined time, thereby forming the resin molded product 50.

[0194] In particular, in the second embodiment, the fixed-side mold 100 and the movable-side mold 200 are clamped together to form a clearance 400 in a state in which the parting surface 300 of the fixed-side mold plate 13 of the fixed-side mold 100 and the movable-side mold plate 23 of the movable-side mold 200 are brought into contact with each other, and a two-liquid mixed thermosetting resin is filled into the clearance 400, so that the surface roughness Rz of the parting surface 300, which is the separation surface between the fixed-side mold plate 13 of the fixed-side mold 100 and the movable-side mold plate 23 of the movable-side mold 200, is 0.8 μm or less, preferably 0.6 μm or less, and more preferably 0.8 μm or less. By having the thickness be 0.4 μm or less, and more preferably 0.2 μm or less, the parting surface 300, which is the contact surface between the fixed side mold plate 13 of the fixed side mold 100 and the movable side mold plate 23 of the movable side mold 200, becomes a highly precisely smooth surface, so that even if the viscosity of a two-component mixed type thermosetting resin such as polyurethane is low and the fluidity is high, the thermosetting resin is less likely to leak onto the parting surface 300, which is the contact surface between the fixed side mold plate 13 of the fixed side mold 100 and the movable side mold plate 23 of the movable side mold 200, and burr defects are less likely to occur.

[0195] Furthermore, the two-component mixed thermosetting resin is injected into the cavity 400 through the pin gate 114, and even if the cavity 400 between the fixed-side mold plate 13 and the movable-side mold plate 23 corresponds to a complex shape or a thin thickness, the two-component mixed thermosetting resin can be sufficiently spread throughout the cavity 400, making it possible to form a resin molded product 50 having a complex shape or a thin thickness. Naturally, since a high injection pressure is not required, resin leakage is also prevented.

[0196] In addition, the runner 112 of the fixed-side mold 100 is formed between the fixed-side mold plate 13 and the stripper plate 12, and the surface roughness Rz of the mating surface (partition surface) of the fixed-side mold plate 13 and the stripper plate 12 is 0.8 μm or less, preferably 0.6 μm or less, more preferably 0.4 μm or less, and even more preferably 0.2 μm or less, so that even if a two-liquid mixture type thermosetting resin with low viscosity flows into the runner 112, leakage (intrusion) of the thermosetting resin into the mating surface where the fixed-side attachment plate 11 and the runner stripper plate 12 come into contact can be prevented. This reduces the work of removing the leaked and attached resin, and improves the molding cycle.

[0197] Then, when the two-component mixed thermosetting resin is sufficiently heated and hardened in the injection molding die 10, the injection molding die 10 is cooled to a predetermined temperature as necessary, and then the fixed die 100 and the movable die 200 are opened in order to remove the resin molded product 50 from the cavity 400. The mold opening direction of the injection molding die 10 is the same as the operating direction of the movable die 200 and the injection direction of the resin.

[0198] As shown in Figure 18, in the mold opening process, when the movable platen of the mold clamping device (not shown) moves to the side opposite the fixed side mounting plate 11, due to the action of the joining force of the puller bolt 164, i.e., the coil spring (not shown) is compressed and inserted in the mold clamping state around the puller bolt 164 arranged on the fixed side mold plate 13 and the runner stripper plate 12 as an axis, and biases the fixed side mold plate 13 and the runner stripper plate 12 in the direction of opening, the repulsive force of the coil spring causes the movable side mold 200 to move together with the fixed side mold plate 13 while keeping the fixed side mold plate 13 in contact with the movable side mold plate 23 of the movable side mold 200, and the gap between the fixed side mold plate 13 and the runner stripper plate 12 opens and they are separated.

[0199] At this time, the sprue / runner resin 60 remaining and hardened within the sprues 111, 113 and runner 112 is separated from the resin molded product 50 near the gate opening of the pin gate 114, which is the weakest point with the smallest cross-sectional area. That is, since the resin 60 in the runner 112 is fixed by the runner lock pin 163, when the space between the fixed side mold plate 13 and the runner stripper plate 12 is opened, the resin at the pin gate 114 formed at the tip of the secondary sprue 113 is pulled, and since the gate opening of the pin gate 114 is formed narrower than the tip of the secondary sprue 113, this is the weakest point in terms of strength, and the resin breaks near this gate opening, causing the gate to be cut.

[0200] Furthermore, when the mold opening proceeds in which the movable mold 200 moves toward the opposite side to the fixed mounting plate 11 side, the fixed mold plate 13 comes into contact with the bolt head of the puller bolt 164 and stops, as shown in FIG. 19, that is, the movement of the fixed mold plate 13 is restricted by the puller bolt 164, but the movable mold plate 23 continues to move in a direction away from the fixed mounting plate 11 side and separates from the fixed mold plate 13. That is, the parting surface 300 between the fixed mold plate 13 and the movable mold plate 23 opens. Note that the runner lock pin 163 is engaged with the tip portion formed in an undercut shape with respect to the runner 112 formed on the fixed mold plate 13, so that the runner stripper plate 12 is held on the fixed mounting plate 11 side, whereas no biasing force is generated on the parting surface 300, and therefore the fixed mold plate 13 and the movable mold plate 23 are opened with the retreating movement of the movable mold 200. At this time, the resin molded product 50 is released from the fixed-side mold plate 13 and remains on the movable-side mold plate 23 side of the movable-side die 200.

[0201] As the movable unit 200 moves further and the mold opening progresses, the opening limited by the tension link 171 between the fixed-side mold plate 13 and the movable-side mold plate 23 reaches a maximum, and thereafter, the fixed-side mold plate 13 is pulled in the mold opening direction via the tension link 171. As the opening limited by the puller bolt 164 between the fixed-side mold plate 13 and the runner stripper plate 12 reaches a maximum, the fixed-side mold plate 13 pulls the puller bolt 164, and the runner stripper plate 12 moves in a direction away from the fixed-side mounting plate 11 due to the pulling force acting via the puller bolt 164, as shown in FIG. 20, and the runner stripper plate 12 and the fixed-side mounting plate 11 are separated, and the runner stripper plate 12 and the fixed-side mounting plate 11 are opened by a predetermined distance limited by the stopper bolt 165.

[0202] At this time, the sprue / runner resin 600 remaining and hardened in the primary sprue 111, the runner 112, the secondary sprue 113, and the pin gate 114 separates from the resin remaining in the injection injection nozzle N near the nozzle opening of the injection injection nozzle N, which is the weakest point with the smallest cross-sectional area. That is, when the fixed side mounting plate 11 and the runner stripper plate 12 are opened, the sprue / runner resin 60 is separated from the resin remaining in the injection injection nozzle N, and the engagement of the runner lock part of the runner lock pin 163 with the sprue / runner resin 600 is released by the pushing force from the runner stripper plate 12 acting on the sprue / runner resin 60, so that the sprue / runner resin 60 is separated from the lock pin 163, and the spray / runner resin 60 that has been stuck (bitten) to the runner stripper plate 12 side falls and comes off the fixed side mold 100.

[0203] 21, after the mold opening is completed, the ejector plate 25 is pushed out toward the fixed mold 100 side by utilizing the operation of the ejector rod 225 of the injection molding device, whereby the tip of the ejector pin 26 fixed to the ejector plate 25 projects from the insert 23a of the movable mold plate 23 and pushes out (projects) the resin molded product 50 remaining on the cavity forming surface 310 of the movable mold plate 23. As a result, the resin molded product 50 falls away from the insert 23a of the movable mold plate 23 and is recovered, or is removed by a removal machine and recovered.

[0204] As described above, in the present embodiment 2, when the movable mold 200 starts to move in the opposite direction to the fixed mounting plate 11 side due to mold opening, the fixed mold plate 13 and the runner stripper plate 12 are first opened by the force of the spring provided in the puller bolt 164, and at this time, the resin 60 solidified on the runner 112 side is pulled to the fixed side (the runner stripper plate 12 side) by the runner lock pin 163, so that it is cut near the pin gate opening of the weakest pin gate 114. Furthermore, when the movable mold 200 moves and mold opening progresses, the parting surface 300 between the fixed mold plate 13 and the movable mold plate 23 opens, and usually the resin molded product 50 is released from the fixed mold plate 13 and remains on the cavity forming surface 310 side of the movable mold plate 23.

[0205] Furthermore, the opening between the fixed side mold plate 13 and the movable side mold plate 23 is reached to its stroke limit by the tension link 171, and the opening between the fixed side mold plate 13 and the runner stripper plate 12 is reached to its stroke limit by the puller bolt 164. As the movable side mold 200 moves away from the fixed side mold 100 and the mold opening progresses, the runner stripper plate 12 is pulled by the tension link 171 and the puller bolt 164, forcing the connection between the runner lock pin 163 and the resin solidified in the runner 112 to separate. When the connection is separated from the resin remaining in the injection injection nozzle N near the nozzle outlet of the injection injection nozzle N, the sprue / runner resin 60 that had solidified in the sprues 111, 113 and the runner 112 falls.

[0206] After the mold is opened, the resin molded product 50 remaining on the cavity forming surface 310 side of the movable mold plate 23 is ejected by the ejector pin 26 through the ejector plate 25 by utilizing the operation of the ejector rod 225 of the injection molding device, and is removed. After the sprue / runner resin 60 and the resin molded product 50 are released and removed from the mold, the ejector rod 225 of the injection molding device is retracted, and the ejector pin 26 is retracted in the axial direction by the repulsive force of the return spring 28, returning to the original position before ejection. Then, when the next injection molding is started, the mold is clamped again with the movable mold 200. That is, the movable mold 200 moves to the fixed mold 100A side, and the fixed attachment plate 11, the runner stripper plate 12, the fixed mold plate 13A, and the movable mold plate 23 are closed from each other, returning to the mold closed mold clamped state.

[0207] In the injection mold 10 of the second embodiment, each mold has a three-plate structure having a fixed side mold plate 13, a runner stripper plate 12, and a movable side mold plate 23, and the movable side mold plate 23 and the fixed side mold plate 13 can be separated by a predetermined stroke (at the parting line), and the fixed side mold plate 13 and the runner stripper plate 12 can be separated by a predetermined stroke, and the runner stripper plate 12 can also be separated from the fixed side mounting plate 11 by a predetermined stroke. Therefore, in the injection mold 10, the resin molded product 50 and the sprue / runner resin 60 can be separated by mold opening and taken out and collected, and gate processing is performed automatically, eliminating the need for gate processing in a later process. Therefore, productivity is high.

[0208] Furthermore, the injection molding die 10 of this embodiment 2 has a three-plate structure consisting of the runner stripper plate 12, the fixed side mold plate 13, and the movable side mold plate 23, and the gate through which resin is injected into the cavity 400 is the pin gate 114. When the die is opened, the resin molded product 50 and the sprue / runner resin 60 are separated by gate cutting, eliminating the need for gate cutting or finishing of the resin molded product 50 in a later process. In addition, the pin gate structure reduces restrictions on the gate position, making it possible to produce multiple pieces (multiple pieces) and improving mass productivity.

[0209] In this manner, the injection mold 10 of the second embodiment is made of, for example, a base material, polyol B (Puroclear 3351 IT), and a curing agent, isocyanate A (Puronate The mold is provided with a fixed side mounting plate 11, a fixed side mold plate 13, and a runner stripper plate 12 disposed between the fixed side mounting plate 11 and the fixed side mold plate 13, through which the injected two-component mixed type thermosetting resin flows, a primary sprue 111 disposed coaxially with the injection direction (mold clamping direction), a runner 112 communicating with the primary sprue 111 and disposed in a direction approximately perpendicular to the primary sprue 111, a secondary sprue 113 communicating with the runner 112 and parallel to the injection direction of the resin, and a pin gate 114 provided at the tip of the secondary sprue and communicating with the secondary sprue 113 and the cavity 400, and a fixed side mold 100 attached to a movable plate of the injection molding device. the movable side mounting plate 21, the movable side mold plate 23, the spacer block 24 arranged between the movable side mounting plate 21 and the movable side mold plate 23, the ejector plate 25 provided in the space surrounded by the spacer block 24 between the movable side mounting plate 21 and the movable side mold plate 23, and the movable side mold 200 having an ejector pin 26 having one end fixed to the ejector plate 25 and penetrating the movable side mold plate 23; and a cavity 400 formed between the fixed side mold 100 and the movable side mold plate 200 by clamping the fixed side mold 100 and the movable mold 200, and the surface roughness Rz of a parting surface 300 between the fixed side mold 100 and the movable mold 200 is 0.8 μm or less, preferably 0.6 μm or less, more preferably 0.4 μm or less, and even more preferably 0.2 μm or less.

[0210] In the second embodiment, a two-component mixed type thermosetting resin is injected toward a cavity 400 formed between the fixed side mold plate 13 and the movable side mold plate 23 while the fixed side mold 100 and the movable side mold 200 are clamped, and the surface roughness Rz of the parting surface 300, which is the separation surface between the fixed side mold plate 13 of the fixed side mold 100 and the movable side mold plate 23 of the movable side mold 200, is 0.8 μm or less, preferably 0.6 μm or less, more preferably 0.4 μm or less, and even more preferably 0.2 μm or less. Therefore, even when a two-component curing type thermosetting resin such as polyurethane, which has a very low viscosity compared to general synthetic resins, is filled into the cavity 400, the resin is unlikely to penetrate into the parting surface 300, which is the contact surface between the fixed side mold plate 13 of the fixed side mold 100 and the movable side mold plate 23 of the movable side mold 200. Therefore, burr defects are unlikely to occur. In addition, it is possible to spread the thermosetting resin throughout the cavity 400, which corresponds to a thin thickness or a complex shape, and filling defects with the two-component curing type thermosetting resin are unlikely to occur.

[0211] In particular, the injection mold 10 of the second embodiment has a pin gate 114 with the smallest diameter in the resin flow path as an inlet for injecting the two-component curing thermosetting resin into the cavity 400, and the resin molded product 50 is separated from the sprue / runner resin 60 and the gate is cut by opening the fixed mold 100 and the movable mold 200. Even with this pin gate 114, it is possible to spread the two-component mixed thermosetting resin, such as polyurethane resin, throughout the cavity 400 due to its low viscosity and high fluidity. In this way, the occurrence of burrs is suppressed, so that the time and effort required for removing burrs after molding can be reduced, and a resin molded product 50 with good external appearance and aesthetic quality can be obtained.

[0212] In addition, in the injection molding die 10 of this embodiment 2, the runner 112 of the fixed side die 100 is formed between the fixed side mold plate 13 and the runner stripper plate 12, and the surface roughness of the parting surface 700 of the fixed side mold plate 13 and the runner stripper plate 12 is 0.8 μm or less, preferably 0.6 μm or less, more preferably 0.4 μm or less, and even more preferably 0.2 μm or less. Therefore, even when a two-component mixed type thermosetting resin having low viscosity passes through the runner 112, it is possible to prevent the thermosetting resin from leaking (entering) into the parting surface 700 of the fixed-side mounting plate 11 and the runner stripper plate 12. This reduces the burden of the process for discharging the leaked excess resin, and the productivity of the resin molded product 50 can be increased.

[0213] Furthermore, in a structure in which the gate for injecting the two-part mixed thermosetting resin into the cavity 400 is the pin gate 114, a multi-point gate is also possible, and in the case of a multi-point gate, it becomes easier to spread the resin to every corner of the cavity 400. Therefore, it is possible to better prevent the resin from leaking to the parting surface 300 of the fixed mold 100 and the movable mold 200, and to better suppress the occurrence of burrs.

[0214] In particular, with the pin gate method, it is possible to set the resin flow distance from the gate to the flow end to be short, and it is easy to obtain an even pressure distribution, which makes it possible to prevent resin from leaking from areas where the pressure is high when the resin is filled into the cavity 400, and suppresses the occurrence of burrs. In addition, since two-component mixed thermosetting resin has good fluidity, it is difficult for weld lines to occur even with a multi-point gate structure, and design properties can be ensured. In addition, the gate mark left by cutting the pin gate is located on the surface (upper surface) of the resin molded product 50, but since the gate opening (gate diameter) of the pin gate is small, the gate mark left when the molded resin molded product 50 is painted is small and inconspicuous. Therefore, the design is not impaired. In addition, if the injection mold 10 has a pin gate structure, it is possible to simultaneously mold a large number of resin molded products 50 in a multi-cavity manner, which increases the mass productivity of the resin molded products 50.

[0215] Furthermore, since the resin has a low viscosity, filling defects are unlikely to occur even when the resin molded product 50 is made thin or has a complex shape. Furthermore, the pin gate method allows for a multi-point gate, and in the case of a multi-point gate, the flow length of the resin from the gate to the end of the flow can be shortened, and the occurrence of air bubbles and burrs can be further prevented by hardening in a specified short time.

[0216] Here, in the injection mold 10 of the present embodiment 2, a two-liquid mixed type thermosetting resin is filled into the cavity 400 formed between the fixed side mold 100 and the movable side mold 200 by clamping, and the surface roughness Rz of the parting surface 300, which is the separation surface between the fixed side mold plate 13 of the fixed side mold 100 and the movable side mold plate 23 of the movable side mold 200, is 0.8 μm or less, preferably 0.6 μm or less, more preferably 0.4 μm or less, and even more preferably 0.2 μm or less, so that it is possible to prevent leakage of the two-liquid mixed type thermosetting resin even in a product shape in which it is difficult to use a spigot structure (also called a cut-off structure, a share edge structure, etc.). That is, the shape of the mold can be set arbitrarily, and the degree of freedom in designing the mold is high.

[0217] In addition, when a resin touch is provided around the molded product to prevent the thermosetting resin from leaking out of the parting surface 300 by providing a burr or a secondary cavity for the purpose of sealing, the degree of freedom of the molded product shape is reduced. Also, in a spigot structure, there is a risk of resin leakage due to a gap occurring between the dies caused by wear at the cut-off portion. In contrast, in the present embodiment 2, a two-liquid mixed type thermosetting resin is filled into the cavity 400 formed between the fixed mold 100 and the movable mold 200 by clamping the molds, and the surface roughness Rz of the parting surface 300, which is the separation surface between the fixed mold plate 13 of the fixed mold 100 and the movable mold plate 23 of the movable mold 200, is 0.8 μm or less, preferably 0.6 μm or less, more preferably 0.4 μm or less, and even more preferably 0.2 μm or less. This makes it possible to prevent resin from leaking to the parting surface 300 even if it is a flat surface due to the metal touch of the parting surface 300, and also increases the degree of freedom in molding. Furthermore, since wear is unlikely to occur on the flat surface, resin leakage is unlikely to occur even with repeated molding cycles and repeated use of the mold, and resin leakage can be prevented for a long period of time.

[0218] That is, in the injection mold 10 of the second embodiment, the surface roughness Rz of the parting surface 300 is set to 0.8 μm or less, preferably 0.6 μm or less, more preferably 0.4 μm or less, and further preferably 0.2 μm or less, so that the two-component mixed thermosetting resin can be prevented from leaking out even if the parting surface 300 is a flat surface. Therefore, it is possible to save the trouble of forming unnecessary parts (resin touch) by providing burrs or secondary cavities around the resin molded product 50 for the purpose of sealing to prevent the two-component mixed thermosetting resin from leaking out of the mold, or removing the unnecessary parts after molding, and the degree of freedom in molding can be increased. In particular, the pin gate structure makes it possible to set the flow distance of the resin from the gate to the flow end to be short, and even for cavities 400 that are thin or have complex shapes, it is possible to design the resin to be uniformly diffused in the cavity 400 before hardening, making it difficult for defective filling to occur, and hardening in a predetermined short time makes it difficult for air bubbles to occur, making it possible to better prevent the occurrence of burrs. In addition, if a two-liquid mixed thermosetting resin is used, expansion and contraction due to temperature changes in the mold is unlikely to occur, so even in thick-walled molding, sink defects and the like are unlikely to occur.

[0219] However, when carrying out the present invention, the fixed mold 100 and the movable mold 200 of the injection molding die 10 may have a spigot structure. When the fixed mold 100 and the movable mold 200 are connected with a spigot structure, it is possible to prevent misalignment of the fixed mold 100 and the movable mold 200, thereby improving the effect of preventing the occurrence of burrs.

[0220] As described above, the injection molding die 10 according to the second embodiment is an injection molding die for molding a two-component mixed type thermosetting resin, and includes a fixed side die 100 having a fixed side mold plate 13, a movable side die 200 having a movable side mold plate 23 opposed to the fixed side mold plate 13, a flow path formed in the fixed side die 100 or the movable side die 200 and consisting of sprues 111, 113, runner 112, and pin gate 114 through which the injected two-component mixed type thermosetting resin flows, and a flow path formed in the fixed side die 100A and the movable side die 200B. The mold 200 is clamped to form a cavity 400 between the fixed side mold plate 13 and the movable side mold plate 23, into which a two-component mixed thermosetting resin flows through a flow path consisting of the sprues 111, 113, runner 112, and pin gate 114 of the fixed side mold plate 13. The parting surface 300 between the fixed side mold plate 13 and the movable side mold plate 23 has a surface roughness Rz of 0.8 μm or less, preferably 0.6 μm or less, more preferably 0.4 μm or less, and even more preferably 0.2 μm or less.

[0221] Thus, according to the injection molding die 10 of the above-mentioned embodiment 2, the surface roughness Rz of the parting surface 300 between the fixed side die 100 having the fixed side mold plate 13 that forms one side of the resin molded product 50 made of a two-component mixed type thermosetting resin and in which a flow path consisting of the sprues 111, 113, the runner 112, and the pin gate 114 through which the two-component mixed type thermosetting resin flows, and the movable side die 200 having the movable side mold plate 23 that faces the fixed side mold plate 13 and forms the other side of the resin molded product 50, is 0.8 μm or less, preferably 0.6 μm or less, more preferably 0.4 μm or less, and even more preferably 0.2 μm or less. Therefore, even when a low-viscosity two-component mixed thermosetting resin is filled into the cavity 400, the metal-to-metal touch of the highly-precise smooth surface of the parting surface 300 can suppress leakage (penetration) of the fixed side mold plate 13 and the movable side mold plate 23 into the parting surface 300, thereby preventing the occurrence of burrs.

[0222] In addition, since the two-component mixed thermosetting resin is easy to store and has a lower viscosity than general thermoplastic resins used in injection molding, the two-component mixed thermosetting resin can be sufficiently distributed in the cavity 400 even if the cavity 400 corresponds to a thin wall or a complex shape. As described above, the surface roughness Rz of the parting surface 300, which is the mold mating surface where the fixed-side mold plate 13 and the movable-side mold plate 23 come into contact with each other by mold clamping, is 0.8 μm or less, preferably 0.6 μm or less, more preferably 0.4 μm or less, and even more preferably 0.2 μm or less, and thus a highly accurate smooth surface is obtained, and leakage (intrusion) of the two-component mixed thermosetting resin into the parting surface 300 of the fixed-side mold plate 13 and the movable-side mold plate 23 can be prevented even when the cavity 400 is filled with the two-component mixed thermosetting resin having a low viscosity. Therefore, it is possible to prevent burrs and form thin-walled or complex-shaped resin molded products made of two-component thermosetting resin. Thus, according to the injection mold 10 according to the second embodiment, even when molding a thin-walled or complex shape, improper resin filling is unlikely to occur, and burrs can be prevented from occurring.

[0223] That is, the injection molding die 10 of the above-mentioned second embodiment includes a fixed-side die 100 having a fixed-side mold plate 13 which forms one side of a resin molded product 50 made of a two-component mixed thermosetting resin, and in which a flow path is formed consisting of sprues 111, 113, a runner 112, and a pin gate 114 through which the injected two-component mixed thermosetting resin flows; a movable-side die 200 having a movable-side mold plate 23 which faces the fixed-side mold plate 13 and forms the other side of the resin molded product 500; The mold has a cavity 400 formed between the plate 100 and the movable mold plate 200 and filled with a two-component mixed thermosetting resin that has flowed through a flow path consisting of the sprues 111, 113, runner 112, and pin gate 114 of the fixed mold 100, and the surface roughness Rz of a parting surface 300 between the fixed mold 100 and the movable mold 200 is 0.8 μm or less, preferably 0.6 μm or less, more preferably 0.4 μm or less, and even more preferably 0.2 μm or less.

[0224] Here, the fixed side mold 100 is equipped with a fixed side plate 13, which is a mold for creating the shape of one side of a resin molded product 50 made of a two-component mixed thermosetting resin, and is provided with a flow path through which the two-component mixed thermosetting resin injected from the resin injection nozzle N of the injection machine passes. In addition, the movable side mold 200 is equipped with a movable side mold plate 23, which is the side that reciprocates between opening and closing in the injection molding mold 10, is arranged opposite the fixed side mold plate 13, and is a mold for creating the shape of the other side of the resin molded product 50 opposite the fixed side mold plate 13 side. The parting surface 300 is the dividing surface between the fixed side mold plate 13 and the movable side mold plate 23, i.e., the mating surface where the fixed side mold plate 13 and the movable side mold plate 23 come into contact when clamped, and has a surface roughness Rz of 0.8 μm or less, preferably 0.6 μm or less, more preferably 0.4 μm or less, and even more preferably 0.2 μm or less.

[0225] Therefore, according to the injection molding die 10 of the above-mentioned embodiment 2, since the two-component mixed thermosetting resin is easy to handle during storage and has a lower viscosity than the general thermoplastic resins used in injection molding, the two-component mixed thermosetting resin can be spread evenly throughout the cavity 400, even if the cavity 400 is designed to accommodate a thin wall or a complex shape.

[0226] Furthermore, the surface roughness Rz of the parting surface 300, which is the mold mating surface where the fixed side mold plate 13 and the movable side mold plate 23 abut against each other when the mold is clamped, is 0.8 μm or less, preferably 0.6 μm or less, more preferably 0.4 μm or less, and even more preferably 0.2 μm or less, resulting in a highly accurate smooth surface, and even when the cavity 400 is filled with a low-viscosity two-component mixed thermosetting resin, the metal-to-metal touch of the parting surface 300 can prevent leakage (penetration) of the fixed side mold plate 13 and the movable side mold plate 23 into the parting surface 300. Furthermore, the cavity 400 formed by clamping the fixed side mold 100 and the movable side mold 200 is filled with a two-component mixed thermosetting resin. Since the two-component mixed thermosetting resin is filled into the cavity 400 while the clamping force is applied, the two-component mixed thermosetting resin is unlikely to leak onto the parting surfaces 300 of the fixed side mold plate 13 and the movable side mold plate 23.

[0227] Therefore, it is possible to prevent burrs and form a resin molded product 500 made of a two-component mixed type thermosetting resin having a thin wall (for example, a thickness of 0.1 mm to 1 mm) or a complex shape. Thus, according to the injection mold 10 of the second embodiment, even when molding a thin-walled or complex shape, resin filling failure is unlikely to occur and burrs can be prevented. In addition, if a two-liquid mixed thermosetting resin is used, expansion and contraction due to temperature changes in the mold can be suppressed, so that sink defects and the like are unlikely to occur even when molding a thick walled part.

[0228] According to the injection mold 10 according to the second embodiment, the flow path in the fixed mold 100 has the pin gate 114. By using the pin gate as the gate for injecting the resin into the cavity 400, the restrictions on the gate position can be reduced, and the degree of freedom in designing the gate position that is less likely to cause molding defects such as sink marks and weld lines can be increased in accordance with the shape, specifications, applications, etc. of the intended coated resin molded product 50. Therefore, the degree of freedom in setting the gate position that is less likely to cause molding defects in accordance with the dimensions, shape, specifications, applications, designs, etc. of the resin molded product 50 can be increased. In addition, the pin gate 114 allows multiple pieces to be taken (multiple pieces to be taken), and mass productivity can be improved. In addition, the pin gate 114 also allows multiple gates, so that the flow distance of the resin from the gate to the flow end can be set short, making it less likely to cause filling defects, and curing in a predetermined short time can suppress the generation of air bubbles and burrs. Furthermore, in the pin gate 114, the resin molded product 50 and the sprue / runner resin 60 can be separated by gate cutting when the fixed mold 100 and the movable mold 200 are opened, so that gate processing is not required after the resin molded product 50 is removed, thereby improving the productivity of the resin molded product 50.

[0229] In detail, according to the injection molding die 10 of the above-mentioned embodiment 2, the flow path through which the two-component mixed thermosetting resin of the fixed side die 100 flows is formed by a primary sprue 111 extending in the injection direction of the two-component mixed thermosetting resin, a runner 112 connected to the primary sprue 111 and formed in a direction approximately perpendicular to the primary sprue 111, a secondary sprue 113 connected to the runner 112 and extending in a direction parallel to the primary sprue 111, and a pin gate 114 connected to the secondary sprue 113 and the cavity 400.

[0230] Therefore, by using the pin gate 114 as the gate for injecting the two-component mixed thermosetting resin into the cavity 400, restrictions on the gate position can be reduced, and the degree of freedom in designing the gate position that is less likely to cause molding defects such as sink marks and weld lines can be increased in accordance with the shape, specifications, and applications of the target resin molded product 50. Furthermore, the pin gate 114 allows for multiple pieces (multiple pieces) to be produced, and mass productivity can be improved. Furthermore, the pin gate 114 also allows for multiple gates, so it is possible to set the flow distance of the resin from the gate to the flow end to be short, making it less likely to cause filling defects, and also suppressing the generation of air bubbles and burrs by hardening in a predetermined short time. Furthermore, with the pin gate 114, the resin molded product 50 can be separated from the sprue / runner side resin 60 by gate cutting when the fixed mold 100 and the movable mold 200 are opened, eliminating the need for gate processing after removing the resin molded product 50, thereby improving the productivity of the resin molded product 50. Therefore, it is possible to increase the degree of freedom in setting the gate position so as to correspond to the dimensions, shape, specifications, applications, designs, etc. of the resin molded product 50 and to prevent molding defects.

[0231] Furthermore, according to the injection molding die 10 of the above-mentioned embodiment 2, the fixed side die 100 has the runner stripper plate 12 arranged on the side opposite the cavity forming side of the fixed side mold plate 13, and the fixed side mounting plate 11 arranged on the side opposite the fixed side mold plate 13 of the runner stripper plate 12. When the fixed side die 100 and the movable side die 200 are opened, the space between the movable side mold plate 23 and the fixed side mold plate 13, and the space between the fixed side mold plate 13 and the runner stripper plate 12 are opened, whereby the resin molded product 50 molded by thermally curing the two-component mixed thermosetting resin in the cavity 400 is separated from the sprue / runner resin 60 formed by thermally curing the two-component mixed thermosetting resin at the sprues 111, 112, runner 113, and pin gate 114 of the fixed side die 100. In this way, the mold has a three-plate structure consisting of the runner stripper plate 12, the fixed side mold plate 13, and the movable side mold plate 23, and when the mold is opened, the resin molded product 50 and the sprue / runner side resin 60 are separated and removed by gate cutting, eliminating the need for gate processing after removing the resin molded product 50. In addition, since the sprue / runner side resin 60 is also released from the mold, the productivity and molding cycle property of the resin molded product 50 can be further improved.

[0232] Furthermore, in the injection molding die 10 of this embodiment 2, when the pin gate 114 is a multi-point gate formed in multiple locations on the cavity forming surface 310 of the fixed die 100, it is possible to set the flow distance of the resin from the gate to the flow end to a shorter distance, making it less likely that poor filling will occur, and also, by hardening in a specified short period of time, the generation of air bubbles and burrs can be further suppressed.

[0233] In addition, in the injection molding die 10 of the second embodiment, if a plurality of cavities 400 are formed between the movable-side mold plate 23 and the fixed-side mold plate 13, a plurality of resin molded products 50 can be simultaneously molded per molding cycle by the plurality of cavities 400, and this provides excellent mass productivity. That is, if the pin gate 114 is used, multiple molds can be made at the same time to mold a large number of resin molded products 50, and therefore the productivity of the resin molded products 50 can be increased.

[0234] According to the injection molding die 10 of the second embodiment, the runner 112 of the fixed die 100 is formed between the fixed die plate 13 and the runner stripper plate 12, and the surface roughness Rz of the parting surface 700 of the fixed die plate 13 and the runner stripper plate 12 is 0.8 μm or less, preferably 0.6 μm or less, more preferably 0.4 μm or less, and even more preferably 0.2 μm or less. Therefore, even when a two-component mixed type thermosetting resin having low viscosity passes through the runner 112, leakage (intrusion) of the two-component mixed type thermosetting resin can be prevented by the metal touch of the parting surface 700, which is the mating surface where the fixed die plate 13 and the runner stripper plate 12 come into contact. Therefore, the burden of removing the leaked excess resin can be reduced, and the molding cycle can be improved.

[0235] The above description of the second embodiment has been given with reference to the case where the fixed-side mold 100 and the movable-side mold 200 of the injection molding die 10 are opposed to each other and clamped together to form a parting surface 300 having a parting surface 300 between the fixed-side mold plate 13 and the movable-side mold plate 23, the parting surface 300 having a surface roughness Rz of 0.8 μm or less, preferably 0.6 μm or less, more preferably 0.4 μm or less, and further preferably 0.2 μm or less. This can be considered as an invention of a method for manufacturing a resin molded product 50, which includes a mold clamping process of forming a cavity 400 between the mold 200 and the fixed mold 100, an injection process of injecting a two-component mixed thermosetting resin into the cavity 400, a molding process of molding the two-component mixed thermosetting resin filled in the cavity 400 to form a resin molded product 50, and a mold opening process of opening the movable mold 200 and the fixed mold 100 and removing the resin molded product 50.

[0236] According to the manufacturing method of the resin molded product 50, a two-component mixed type thermosetting resin having low viscosity is filled into the cavity 400 when the mold is closed, and further, since the parting surface 300 is a highly accurate smooth surface, metal touch is achieved. Therefore, even when the two-component mixed type thermosetting resin is filled into the cavity 400, leakage (penetration) of the two-component mixed type thermosetting resin into the parting surfaces 300 of the fixed side mold plate 13 and the movable side mold plate 23 can be suppressed, and the occurrence of burrs can be prevented.

[0237] Furthermore, two-component thermosetting resin is easy to store and handle, and has a lower viscosity than the general thermoplastic resins used in injection molding, so that the two-component thermosetting resin can be spread evenly throughout cavity 400, even in the case of cavities 400 that are thin-walled or have complex shapes.

[0238] In addition, the surface roughness Rz of the parting surface 300, which is the mold mating surface where the fixed side mold plate 13 and the movable side mold plate 23 abut against each other when the mold is clamped, is 0.8 μm or less, preferably 0.6 μm or less, more preferably 0.4 μm or less, and even more preferably 0.2 μm or less, thereby forming a highly smooth surface, and even when a low-viscosity two-component mixed thermosetting resin is filled into the cavity 400 in the clamped state, leakage (penetration) of the fixed side mold plate 13 and the movable side mold plate 23 into the parting surface 300 can be prevented by the metal-to-metal touch of the parting surface 300. Furthermore, the cavity 400 formed by clamping the fixed side mold 100 and the movable side mold 200 is filled with a two-component mixed thermosetting resin. Since the two-component mixed thermosetting resin is filled into the cavity 400 while the clamping force is applied, the two-component mixed thermosetting resin is unlikely to leak onto the parting surfaces 300 of the fixed side mold plate 13 and the movable side mold plate 23.

[0239] Therefore, it is possible to prevent burrs and form a resin molded product 500 made of a two-component mixed type thermosetting resin having a thin wall or a complex shape. Thus, according to the manufacturing method of the resin molded product 50 of the second embodiment, even when molding a thin-walled or complex shape, resin filling failure is unlikely to occur and burrs can be prevented. In addition, if a two-liquid mixed thermosetting resin is used, expansion and contraction due to temperature changes in the mold can be suppressed, so that sink defects and the like are unlikely to occur even when molding a thick walled product.

[0240] The above description of embodiment 2 can also be understood as an invention of an injection molding method in which the fixed side mold 100 and the movable side mold 200 of the injection molding die 10, which consists of a fixed side mold 100 with a fixed side mold plate 13 and a movable side mold 200 with a movable side mold plate 23 and has a surface roughness Rz of the parting surface 300 between the fixed side mold plate 13 and the movable side mold plate 23 of 0.8 μm or less, preferably 0.6 μm or less, more preferably 0.4 μm or less, and even more preferably 0.2 μm or less, are clamped to form a cavity 400 between the fixed side mold plate 13 and the movable side mold plate 23, and a two-component mixed thermosetting resin is filled into the cavity 400 to perform molding.

[0241] According to the above-described injection molding method, a two-component mixed type thermosetting resin having low viscosity is filled into the cavity 400 when the mold 10 is in a clamped state, and furthermore, since the parting surface 300 is a highly accurate smooth surface and thus has a metal-to-metal contact, even when the two-component mixed type thermosetting resin is filled into the cavity 400, leakage (penetration) of the two-component mixed type thermosetting resin into the parting surfaces 300 of the fixed side mold plate 13 and the movable side mold plate 23 can be suppressed, and the occurrence of burrs can be prevented.

[0242] Furthermore, two-component thermosetting resin is easy to store and handle, and has a lower viscosity than the general thermoplastic resins used in injection molding, so that the two-component thermosetting resin can be spread evenly throughout cavity 400, even in the case of cavities 400 that are thin-walled or have complex shapes.

[0243] Furthermore, the surface roughness Rz of the parting surface 300, which is the mold mating surface where the fixed side mold plate 13 and the movable side mold plate 23 abut against each other when the mold is clamped, is 0.8 μm or less, preferably 0.6 μm or less, more preferably 0.4 μm or less, and even more preferably 0.2 μm or less, resulting in a highly accurate smooth surface, and even when a low-viscosity two-component mixed thermosetting resin is filled into the cavity 400 in the clamped state, the metal-to-metal touch of the parting surface 300 can prevent leakage (penetration) of the fixed side mold plate 13 and the movable side mold plate 23 into the parting surface 300. Furthermore, the cavity 400 formed by clamping the fixed side mold 100 and the movable side mold 200 is filled with a two-component mixed thermosetting resin. Since the two-component mixed thermosetting resin is filled into the cavity 400 while the clamping force is applied, the two-component mixed thermosetting resin is unlikely to leak onto the parting surfaces 300 of the fixed side mold plate 13 and the movable side mold plate 23.

[0244] Therefore, it is possible to prevent burrs and form a resin molded product 500 made of a two-component mixed type thermosetting resin having a thin wall or a complex shape. Thus, according to the injection molding method of the second embodiment, even when molding a thin-walled or complex shape, resin filling failure is unlikely to occur and burrs can be prevented. In addition, if a two-liquid mixed thermosetting resin is used, expansion and contraction due to temperature changes in the mold can be suppressed, so that sink defects and the like are unlikely to occur even when molding a thick walled part.

[0245] When implementing the present invention, the cavity forming surfaces 310 of the fixed-side mold plate 13 and the movable-side mold plate 23 may be mirror-finished, textured, bossed, or the like, and then transferred to the painted surface. In addition, in the injection molding die 10 of the second embodiment, a pin gate structure is used and a flow path for a two-component mixed thermosetting resin is formed on the fixed-side mold 100 side, but when implementing the present invention, the structure is not limited to the pin gate structure, and the resin flow path may be formed on the movable-side mold 200 side.

[0246] When implementing the present invention, the configuration, material, size, connection relationship, and the like of other parts of the mold are not limited to those in the above-described embodiment. Furthermore, the above-mentioned numerical ranges are not strict, and are of course approximate values ​​including errors due to measurements, etc., and errors of several tens of percent are not denied. Furthermore, the numerical values ​​given in the embodiments of the present invention do not indicate critical values, but indicate appropriate values ​​suitable for implementation, so even if the numerical values ​​are slightly changed, the implementation is not denied.
