A process and a molding unit for the automatic molding, expelling and assembling to one another of at least a pair of plastic handles for a plastic bag, consisting of a male and female handles (A and B) and provided with snap fastening means for closing said bag, characterized by the use of a molding unit comprising: two mold blocks, each having a cavity for removably receiving a mold, respectively said cavities and the molds forming two juxtaposed molding chambers, separated from one another by slidable wall members constituting in combination the countermolds of the two respective molding chambers in operative position thereof, means for moving the mold blocks together with the molds to and from one another, means for slidably moving said slidable wall to and from its closing position, injection means for feeding molded plastic material into both molding chambers shaped to form a female and a male handles (A and B), punch means to form in each male handle (A) each pin of the snap fastening means as well as the respective pin receiving holes, and stripping means for the expulsion from said molding chambers and mutual assembling of each pair of the male and female handles (A and B) to one another.

A method for automatically molding, assembling and expelling two separate plastic handles provided with snap interlockable male and female fastener means respectively on facing surfaces thereof adapted to be connected to a plastic bag, comprising the steps of molding at least a pair of substantially identical handles each provided with respective male and female interlockable fastener means in first and second molding cavities respectively, the molding cavities being in spaced apart face-to-face relationship and while the molding cavities are closed by intervening reciprocatory plates, and while a plurality of spaced means to shape the interlockable male and female fastener means is extending through the first molding cavity, between opposing ends of said plates and is terminated substantially at the second molding cavity, each last-named means to shape having an end cavity formed to shape the male fastener means and being in communication with the second molding cavity and also having an annular recess formed to shape the female fastener means and being in communication with the first molding cavity, the axes of said means to shape being parallel and being across a plane common to the reciprocatory plates and the first and second molding cavities, said molding of the handles consisting of injecting plastic material into said first and second molding cavities and curing the injected plastic material therein, opening the first and second spaced apart molding cavities by separating the opposing ends of the intervening reciprocatory plates, stripping the handle having the male fastener means out of the second molding cavity by withdrawal of all of the spaced means to shape and thereby moving such handle toward the facing handle remaining in the first molding cavity and causing snap interlocking of the male and female fastener means of the two handles with the latter in face-to-face contact, and separating the means to shape from the two united handles.
