Abstract

The present invention is carried out in combination with the injection molding of a closure cap or container, wherein a continuous sealing strip having a thermoplastic resin layer on the inner surface thereof is supplied intermittently. Then a reciprocable molding member having a sharp edge at the tip thereof is advanced through the sealing strip to a position where a molding cavity in the injection mold defining a pour-out hole of a closure cap or container is closed by a sealing piece punched out from the sealing strip, and thereafter a thermoplastic resin is injected into the molding cavity.
