Abstract
To provide a molding apparatus and a molding process which enable a primary product molded in a primary mold to be held in a secondary mold stably, so that the primary product may not be displaced by a synthetic resin material injected into the secondary mold. If a synthetic resin material is injected into a primary mold cavity 173 in a primary mold 85 into which molding protrusions 187 project, there is molded a primary product 340 having engaging holes 191 formed on its surface. Protrusions 227 projecting into a secondary mold cavity 225 in a secondary mold 87 are engaged in the engaging holes 191 of the primary product 340 to secure it in the secondary mold cavity 225, and a synthetic resin material is injected into the secondary mold cavity 225 to mold a secondary product 361 having through holes made by the engaging protrusions 227 formed on its surface through which the engaging protrusions 227 are removable.
