In a method for producing a shaped part, a closing movement is executed by displacing at least one of two mold halves of a high-pressure resin transfer tool from an open position into a pre-closure position of the resin transfer tool such that an opening gap between the mold halves is sealed air-tight by a sealing device of the resin transfer tool to thereby enclose a cavity. The cavity is evacuated by pumping air out of the cavity, and the closing movement is continued by displacing at least one of the two mold halves from the pre-closure position into a final closure position, in which the mold halves are sealed against one another by a further sealing device to allow filling of the cavity, enclosed by the two mold halves, with resin without leakage during a high-pressure resin transfer molding process.

A gas charging unit for adding gas to a liquid polyurethane component, in particular a filler-laden polyurethane component of a polyurethane injection molding unit, includes a mixing vessel having an inlet opening and receiving a liquid polyurethane component via the inlet opening. Arranged in the mixing vessel in alignment with the inlet opening and axially adjustable in relation to the inlet opening is at least one movable mixing element to mix the polyurethane component fed into the mixing vessel with gas injected into the polyurethane component via a nozzle.

A deflector-mixing head for a reaction molding machine, comprises a mixing chamber with a control piston for regulation of component inflow, an overflow chamber is arranged downstream from the mixing chamber in a perpendicular position thereto and provided with a cleaning piston which controls the opening and closing of the mixing chamber side of the inlet of the overflow chamber, wherein an improved mixing quality is obtained by arranging a connection chamber substantially parallel to the axis of the overflow chamber, between the mixing and overflow chambers and provided with deflector elements positioned in the flow path between the inlet and the outlet side of the connecting chamber, and by arranging a displacement piston parallel to the cleaning piston for emptying the connection chamber.

A container for homogenizing and heating or cooling a liquid working medium is disclosed. The container includes a tubular heat exchanger disposed in the interior space of the container, with the liquid working medium flowing through flow-through tubes of the heat exchanger that are in contact with a heat-exchange medium, A cup-shaped baffle which Is formed of a partition wall and a cover secured to an end of the partition wall proximate to the medium outlet of the flow-through tubes surrounds the heat exchanger and subdivides the interior space of the container between the tubular heat exchanger and the container wall in at least two concentric annular spaces, with each of the concentric annular spaces containing the working medium. The container is suitable for homogenization and heating of polyol components in a polyurethane injection molding apparatus.
