Abstract

PURPOSE:To control a hollow part forming position arbitrarily without degrading a surface condition with a simple metallic mold by making the preset position of a molded part a different surface from a periphery, and a part corresponding to the different surface hollow. CONSTITUTION:This molded part is provided, at the preset position of a surface, with a different surface 1 which can be discriminated from the other surface by making the surface different in glossiness from the other surface, or a little protruded or recessed part from a periphery. A hollow part is formed according to the different surface 1. This molded part, for which a metallic mold where a material with lower thermal conductivity than other cavity surfaces, for example, a heat insulator 8 is embedded at a position where the different surface 1 (a hollow part) of a metallic mold cavity is to be formed, can be formed by pressing-in pressurized fluid after injecting a prescribed amount of molten resin. The pressurized fluid is led into the resin whose cooling is delayed by the heat insulator 8 to form a hollow part, and a different surface 1 is formed on the surface of the heat insulator 8 part.

2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, in a hollow injection molding method in which a hollow portion is formed by injecting a pressurized gas into a mold cavity after injecting an amount of molten resin insufficient to fill the mold cavity, It is known that a hollow injection-molded article having a hollow portion that spreads non-uniformly is obtained by giving a temperature difference to the resin inside and preferentially introducing pressurized gas into the high temperature molten resin portion. (Japanese Patent Publication No. 61-53208). In this technique, the molten resin in the mold cavity is provided with a temperature difference by partially cooling or heating the mold cavity surface.
