Claim 1
Independent Claim
130 words
In injection moulding apparatus for moulding a hollow opensided shell of rounded form; said apparatus comprising a core and separable members defining a mould cavity enclosing said core, the improvement comprising an ejecting mechanism for removing moulded shells from said core following separation of said mould cavity defining members, including an ejector slide mounted for reciprocable movement with respect to said core, an ejector head pivotally mounted on said slide and engageable with an edge of a shell carried on said core, and a shoulder on said core engageable by an opposite edge of a shell carried on said core; whereby, upon reciprocation of said ejector slide, said ejector head will engage a shell carried on said core to fulcrum the same against said shoulder for removal from said core.
