Abstract

It is an object of this invention to provide a resin molding die that is capable of suppressing, even when an undercut is provided on a core mold and an embossing process is performed on a cavity mold, generation of burrs attributed to the undercut and the embossing process. A resin molding die ( 1 ) of this invention includes: a core mold ( 4 ) including a protrusion ( 11 ) formed on a surface thereof as an undercut, the protrusion ( 11 ) being provided so as to form a through hole ( 105 ) in a resin-molded product ( 100 ); and a cavity mold ( 5 ) provided so as to be engageable with the core mold ( 4 ). The cavity mold ( 5 ) includes: a cavity main body ( 13 ) including an embossed surface that is opposed to the surface of the core mold ( 4 ), on which the protrusion ( 11 ) in provided, under a state in which the cavity mold ( 5 ) and the core mold ( 4 ) are engaged with each other; and an insert ( 15 ) provided to the cavity main body ( 13 ) so as to abut on the protrusion ( 11 ), the insert ( 15 ) including a mirror-finished surface as an opposing surface ( 23 ) thereof that abuts on the protrusion ( 11 ).

Claims (18)

1. A resin molding die, comprising:

a core mold comprising a protrusion formed on a surface thereof as an undercut, the protrusion being provided so as to form a through hole in a resin-molded product; and

a cavity mold provided so as to be engageable with the core mold,

wherein the cavity mold comprises:

a main body comprising a first processing surface that is opposed to the surface of the core mold, on which the protrusion in provided, under a state in which the cavity mold and the core mold are engaged with each other; and

an insert provided to the main body so as to abut on the protrusion, the insert comprising a second processing surface as a surface thereof that abuts on the protrusion,

wherein the first processing surface comprises an embossed surface,

wherein the second processing surface comprises a mirror-finished surface,

wherein between the first and second processing surface is a continuous surface without gaps, and

wherein an area of the surface of the insert, which abuts on the protrusion, is larger than an area of a surface of the protrusion, which abuts on the insert.

2. A resin molding die according to claim 1 , wherein the protrusion is provided so that a protruding direction thereof intersects with an engaging direction in which the core mold and the cavity mold are engaged with each other.

3. A resin molding die according to claim 1 , wherein the protrusion is provided so that a protruding direction thereof is orthogonal to the engaging direction in which the core mold and the cavity mold are engaged with each other.

4. A resin molding die according to claim 1 , wherein at least the second processing surface of the insert is formed of a material having a hardness larger than a hardness of the protrusion.

5. A resin molding die according to claim 1 ,

wherein the core mold and the cavity mold each comprise a rectangular shape in plan view,

wherein the core mold comprising the rectangular shape comprises first positioning portions formed at four corners thereof, and

wherein the cavity mold comprising the rectangular shape comprises second positioning portions formed at four corners thereof so as to be engageable with the first positioning portions, respectively.

6. A resin molding die according to claim 5 , wherein the first positioning portions and the second positioning portions comprise a fitting structure.
