An actuating device for adjusting at least one valve needle of an injection molding apparatus with a hot runner manifold that has disposed thereon at least one hot runner nozzle with at least one valve needle extending there-through which may control the melt flow through the hot runner nozzle. The actuating device has a support plate that is connected to the at least one valve needle and movable in a first direction relative to the hot runner manifold. The actuating device further includes a reciprocating device for moving the support plate in the first direction relative to the hot runner manifold, wherein the reciprocating device includes a slider mechanism and an actuation drive that is connected to a trigger device for generating a linear motion, wherein the slider mechanism has at least one thrust rod that is disposed in a second direction at an angle relative to the first direction.

Actuating device for adjusting at least one valve needle of an injection molding apparatus

An injection molding apparatus may include a first mold plate and a second mold plate. The second mold plate may be movable outside an injection molding station defined by these mold plates. The second mold plate may carry parts of type A' and parts of type B&#x2032; molded at the same time within the injection molding station. A transferring mechanism may carry the second mold plate to removing and assembling stations where molded parts A&#x2032; are first removed from the second mold plate and next parts A&#x2032; are positioned relative molded parts B&#x2032;, where the molded parts B&#x2032; and A&#x2032; are finally assembled. Simultaneously other parts A&#x2032; and B&#x2032; may be molded at the injection molding station using an additional and identical second mold plate. Depending on the application, molded parts A&#x2032; and B&#x2032; may be made of the same or different materials.
