Abstract

An injection molding apparatus for forming a gasket around an edge of a glass is provided. The injection molding apparatus includes: an injection mold die; a fixing component, disposed inside the injection mold die and adapted for fixing the glass inside the injection mold die; a detection unit, mounted to the injection molding apparatus and adapted for detecting an image or vibration of the glass; a determination unit, coupled with the detection unit and adapted for determining whether the glass breaks based on a detection result of the detection unit. The apparatus can determine whether the glass breaks, such that the risk of scratching the injection mold die by glass breaking may be reduced. Therefore, the injection molding yield can be improved, the time for repairing the injection mold die may be reduced and a service life of the injection mold die may be prolonged.
