ABSTRACT:
A mold changer for an injection molding machine has a carriage with two mold stations mounted next to the molding machine. The carriage is movable parallel to the tie rods (or platen movement) of the molding machine to position a selected work station in register for mold changing. There are rollers on the machine platens and at each carriage work station to support the mold weight while permitting lateral movement of the mold into or out of the machine or carriage as part of mold changing. Separate drive means to power such lateral mold movement are on each of the machine and carriage. Each of the drive means selectively moves a mold the first part of the way from the device in which it is mounted (i.e. machine or carriage) into the other device (carriage or machine) and at some point the drive means in the receiving device assumes driving and completion of the mold change. The mold is constructed and arranged to engage and disengage the drive means.
