The T.O.I™ (Tool Opening Interrupter) holds the mold closed for transporting, setup, teardown or storage. The T.O.I™ is two pieces; a fixed piece that bolts to the stationary mold half, and a slide that moves within a track on the fixed piece. The slide bolts to the movable mold half. As the mold is lifted, the slide wedges tightly to the fixed piece, preventing the mold from opening.
To prevent damage to the tooling and machine, if the installer forgets to remove the T.O.I™ after installing the mold on the machine, the latch is designed to safely break apart when the machine opens the mold, Thus not damaging eye bolts on handling hole.
