Abstract: Provided is an injection unit for the hot runner molding including a heating cylinder having passageways for fused plastic longitudinally formed therethrough and a nozzle member attached to one end of the cylinder and having an injection nozzle. Within the cylinder is fixably disposed a torpedo, which has a central blind hole formed therethrough in a manner spaced from and parallel with said plastic passageways of the cylinder. Within the central blind hole is disposed a spring assembly, which always biases a pin member abutting against the spring assembly. The pin member is provided with a valve and both are integrally operated. Where a prescribed level of plastic pressure acts on the valve, the valve is separated from the nozzle member to permit the plastic to be injected through the injection nozzle. Where the prescribed plastic pressure does not act on the valve, the valve is made to abut the nozzle member by the bias force of the spring assembly to close the injection nozzle.
