Foam molded body production device and foam molded body production method
A production device ( 20 ) of a molded foam body includes an upper mold ( 21 ) and a lower mold ( 22 ) having a cavity ( 23 ) formed between mold surfaces ( 21 a, 22 a ) facing each other, wherein a raw foam material is supplied on the mold surface ( 22 a ) of the lower mold ( 22 ) and a hard material ( 3 ) is detachably arranged on the mold surface ( 21 a ) of the upper mold ( 21 ), and the raw foam material is foamed in the cavity ( 23 ) with the hard material ( 3 ) arranged on the mold surface ( 21 a ) of the upper mold ( 21 ) to form a foam body and a portion other than a projection portion ( 11 ) of the hard material ( 3 ) is fixed to the foam body to form the molded foam body in which the projection portion ( 11 ) projects from the foam body, and wherein on the mold surface ( 21 a ) of the upper mold ( 21 ), a concave arrangement portion ( 28 ) that is opened toward the lower mold ( 22 ) side and on which the projection portion ( 11 ) is arranged is formed, and a pivotable mold ( 27 ) that opens and closes the concave arrangement portion ( 28 ) from the lower mold ( 22 ) side by rotating around a pivot shaft ( 26 ) extending in a direction along the mold surface ( 21 a ) is provided.
1. A production device of a molded foam body comprising:
an upper mold and a lower mold having a cavity formed between mold surfaces facing each other,
wherein the mold surface of the lower mold is adapted to receive a raw foam material, and the mold surface of the upper mold is adapted to detachably receive a hard material, and
the upper and lower molds are arranged so that the raw foam material is foamed in the cavity with the hard material arranged on the mold surface of the upper mold forming a foam body, a portion other than a projection portion of the hard material being fixed to the foam body to form the molded foam body in which the projection portion projects from the foam body;
wherein on the mold surface of the upper mold there is a concave arrangement portion opening toward the lower mold side and on which the projection portion is arranged, and further comprising a pivotable mold that opens and closes the concave arrangement portion from the lower mold side by pivoting around a pivot shaft extending in a direction along the mold surface; and
wherein the upper mold is adapted to approach and separate from the lower mold by pivoting around an opening and closing shaft that extends in a direction along the mold surface of the upper mold, the pivot shaft and the opening and closing shaft extend in the same axial direction, and the pivot shaft is disposed inside the cavity.
2. The production device of a molded foam body according to claim 1 ,
wherein the pivotable mold is magnetically attached to the upper mold when the concave arrangement portion is closed.
3. The production device of a molded foam body according to claim 1 ,
wherein the concave arrangement portion is formed at or near one end portion of the upper mold opposite to an opposite end portion of the upper mold where the opening and closing shaft is disposed, and
the pivotable mold is connected to an inner side surface of the concave arrangement portion which faces toward the opposite end portion, via the pivot shaft.
