Abstract
A method and apparatus for inserting elements to be adhered to a plastic article being blow molded includes an insertion device having an insert arm for carrying a carpet intended to be affixed to one mold section and a second inserter for inserting nuts intended to be supported in the opposing mold section for molding on the opposite side of the article. The carpet inserted utilizes an arm having a pair of pins which extend through elongated slots formed in the carpet. The mold is provided with pins to receive the carpet from the inserter pin after the carpet is stripped from the inserter pins. The nut inserter utilizes a nest having a small magnet. The mold section is provided with pins and a stronger magnet behind such pins. Upon movement of the nest with the nuts thereon to the mold section, the arm is properly aligned and moved to position the nuts over a pin extending from the molding surface of the mold section. A stronger magnet behind the pin causes the nuts to be retained thereon following removal of the nest assemblies from engagement with the mold surface.
