Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 5
Claim 1
Independent Claim
147 words
Apparatus for forming a moulded seal round first and second metal portions to be sealed together comprising a moulding machine including a mould of anNular shape defining the outer wall of an open mould chamber, spaced sealing surfaces on said wall defining the extremities thereof, a plurality of injection cylinders integral with said mould and spaced round the periphery thereof, each said cylinder having an injection orifice providing access from the cylinder to the mould chamber, heating means located on the mould for heating same, a supporting frame having an annular portion, a plurality of double-acting pistons equal in number to said plurality of injection cylinders, said pistons being mounted on said annular portion in positions corresponding to the positions of said cylinders, means for supporting said mould round said first and second metal portions, and further means for moving said supporting frame relatively to said mould.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
147 words
