Widely used as mechanical parts in the field. And
Various resins have been applied to flappers because they have good moldability, are lightweight, and do not rust, and their use is expanding more and more in recent years. Conventionally, such flappers have been manufactured by insert molding with a thermoplastic resin using a metal shaft as the shaft. It is illustrated in FIGS.

When such a method is used, when the shaft portion and the claw portion are integrally molded with a thermoplastic resin, warpage occurs in the molded product due to shrinkage during molding in normal injection molding, which causes warpage in the molded product. This is because a product with high dimensional accuracy cannot be obtained. Therefore, a metal shaft is used as the shaft, and only the claw portion is insert-molded with resin. According to such a method, a product with less bending can be obtained as a result.

However, this method requires a step of setting the metal shaft in the mold during insert molding, and is inferior in productivity as compared with injection molding using only resin.
Further, since the metal is used for the shaft, the parts become heavy. Further, in consideration of an environmental problem which has become a social problem recently, there is a problem that it is difficult to separate the metal and the resin at the time of recycling the material because the parts are an integrated body of the metal and the resin.

In the present invention, the flapper is a component that controls the conveying direction of the claw portion by rotating about the axis line, and especially the movement of the paper inside the OA equipment (copier, facsimile, printer, etc.). It is a component used to control the direction. For example, as shown by an arrow 4 in FIGS. 5 and 2, the moving direction of paper or the like can be divided into upper and lower directions.
Further, the "claw portion" is a functional portion that mainly comes into contact with an object when controlling the conveyance direction of the object. Further, the "shaft portion" is a portion that is supported by another component (bearing component) such that the rotation is stable when the flapper rotates. The portions other than the “claw portion” and the “shaft portion” can have any shape as long as they do not affect the operation. Further, the "end surface" means a surface of an outer surface of the molded product which intersects with the axis. In the figure, examples of the “claw portion”, the “shaft portion”, and the “end surface” are shown.

The hollow injection molding method of the present invention is carried out by a combination of an ordinary injection molding machine and a hollow part forming fluid press-fitting device. The hollow part forming fluid press-fitting device is a device that presses the hollow part forming fluid into the molten resin through a pipe after the injection of the molten resin and pressurizes the resin in the cavity through the hollow part forming fluid for a set time. For this, the hollow part forming fluid to be injected is compressed to a high pressure in advance to a high pressure, stored in an accumulator, and after injection of the molten resin, a high pressure hollow part forming fluid is pressed in through a pipe or a fixed amount of hollow part forming fluid. There is a method such as measuring and sequentially sending it to the cavity with a pump or a pressurizing cylinder to pressurize,
Any method is possible as long as the hollow part forming fluid is sent into the molten resin after injection. The pressure of the above-mentioned hollow portion forming fluid is released before the mold opening when obtaining a molded product. Although the thermoplastic resin finally has a hollow portion, the preferable hollow ratio is 10 to 50%. This is because when the hollow ratio is high, the hollow part forming fluid breaks through the resin layer during molding, making it difficult to stabilize the molding, and when the hollow ratio is low, warping is likely to occur. The hollow ratio is defined by the following equation.

[Example 3] Nylon 66 (polyamide 66 "Leona 1300S" manufactured by Asahi Kasei Co., Ltd.) as a thermoplastic resin
Was used to obtain a molded product in the same manner as in Example 2 except that the cylinder temperature of the molding machine was set to 290 ° C. Similar to Example 1 and Example 2, the productivity was excellent because there was no step of setting the metal insert in the mold. Moreover, since all parts are integrated with resin, a molded product having excellent recyclability was obtained. A molded product having the same warp (bending degree, deflection accuracy) as in Example 2 was obtained.

Since there is a step of setting the metal insert in the mold, manpower and a robot are required, and since this step requires time, the molding cycle is longer than that of the embodiment. Therefore, the productivity was inferior to that of the example. Also,
The finished product was inferior in recyclability because the metal and resin were integrated. Further, since the metal is used for the shaft, the parts are heavier than in the embodiment.
