A resin molding apparatus has been granted a patent (Publication Number: US11999083B2) with claims detailing its components and functionalities. The apparatus includes a resin supply mechanism with a nozzle for ejecting liquid resin, a resin collection unit to receive resin droplets, a movement mechanism to track the nozzle's position, a mold die with upper and lower dies, a mold clamp mechanism, and a control section to manage operations. The resin collection unit features an arm to hold the resin-receiving member, a motor to drive the nozzle, a cylinder for fluid movement, and a rotation mechanism for arm movement. The apparatus ensures efficient resin supply and collection, preventing resin wastage and maintaining precision during the molding process.

Furthermore, the patent includes claims for a method of producing resin molded products using the described apparatus. The method involves supplying liquid resin to the target, collecting any dropped resin with the resin collection unit, and producing the final molded product. The apparatus's control section adjusts fluid pressure to synchronize the resin-receiving member's speed with the nozzle's movement, enhancing accuracy and efficiency in the molding process. Additionally, the resin collection unit includes sensors for detecting the nozzle's position, further optimizing resin collection. Overall, the patented resin molding apparatus and method offer a comprehensive solution for precise and effective resin molding processes, ensuring minimal wastage and high-quality end products.
