Abstract

Mold clamping mechanism of an injection molding machine with a movable platen (10), a fixed platen (12) and a support section (9) connected to the movable platen (10) through connecting links, wherein, when clamping force is applied via the connecting links, a force is transmitted to the front face (9A) of the support section (9), wherein at least one recess (25) is arranged between the front face (9A) and the back face (9B) of the support section (9), which is formed in such a manner that those regions of the front face (9A) of the support section (9) to which the force (FH) is transferred are evenly deformed when force is applied.
