Abstract
Abstract A valve nozzle is used at an end of a hot runner or an injection molding machine for an injection molding. The valve nozzle comprises a cylinder as a body of the nozzle, and a piston. The cylinder has a gate and has a larger inner diameter at the rear end and a smaller inner diameter at the front end. The piston has a passage in the piston and has a large outer diameter at the rear end and a smaller outer diameter at the front end.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 5
Claim 1
Independent Claim
184 words
A valve nozzle for an injection molding machine cooperable with a mold cavity, comprising: a cylinder; a longitudinal bore in said cylinder, said bore having a first portion of a first predetermined diameter at a first end of said cylinder and a second portion of second predetermined diameter at a second end of said cylinder, said second diameter being smaller than said first diameter; an injection molding compound inlet to said bore at said first end; an injection molding compound outlet from said bore at said second end, said outlet extending perpendicular to said bore; a piston slidable in said bore, said piston having a first portion of said first predetermined diameter at said first end and a second portion of said second predetermined diameter at said second end, said piston including at least one passage extending through said first and second portions; a valve stem extending from said piston toward said outlet and extendable into said mold cavity; and a valve fixed to said stem adjacent said outlet, said valve forming a disk coaxial with said bore and seating upon said perpendicular outlet.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
