Abstract

Injection mold for manufacturing disc-shaped plastic objects with a central hole, which mold comprises: a first mold part; a second mold part displaceable relative to this first mold part; which two mold parts are displaceable between a closed first position, in which they together partially bound a mold cavity corresponding to the shape of an object for manufacture, and an open second position in which a formed object can be removed; a third mold part which in an active position extends through the mold cavity and in the region of this mold cavity has a shape corresponding to the shape of the central hole, which third mold part is axially displaceable relative to the first and second mold parts between said active position and a retracted rest position; which third mold part bounds with the guide sleeve a channel which is connectable to the injection nozzle of an injection molding device, which channel can be opened and closed by means of a valve consisting of a valve seat which is formed by a part of the inner surface of a guide sleeve widening towards the mold cavity and a valve body which is formed by a widened portion on one end of the third mold part; which valve body can be displaced to the active position of the valve by the pressure of the plastic supplied through the channel and can be displaced to the rest position by a pressure member; and first heating means co-acting with guide sleeve for keeping plastic present in the channel in the plastic state.
