A primary molding material is injected into a primary cavity with a predetermined volume formed by mold elements for primary injection molding which are movable relative to each other, and the mold elements are moved away from each other to increase the volume of the primary cavity by a predetermined amount. In this state, the primary molding material is foamed to form a primary molded part. Then, one of the mold elements for primary injection molding is replaced by a secondary injection mold element including a movable mold element, and a secondary molding material is injected into a secondary cavity formed by the primary molded part, the secondary injection mold element, and the movable mold element for secondary injection molding. Then, the movable mold element is moved backward to increase the volume of the secondary cavity by a predetermined amount, and the secondary molding material is foamed to form a secondary molded part as an integral part of the primary molded part, thereby producing a material or product of stable quality at low cost which simultaneously has elasticity, flexibility, cushioning properties and toughness.

A heterogenous foam injecting molding method comprising the steps of: forming a primary initial cavity by the cooperation of at least three separate mold elements including a fixed first element, a second element movable with respect to a third element and said third element being movable with respect to said first element; injecting a primary foamable molding material into the primary initial cavity formed by said primary initial cavity-forming step; moving said second element with respect to said third element while keeping said cavity closed with said third element being at rest with respect to said first element to form a primary final cavity having a larger volumetric capacity than that of said primary initial cavity and foaming said charged molding material injected into said primary initial cavity in said primary final cavity to produce a primary injection molded part; thereafter, forming a secondary initial cavity by a cooperation among said first element, said third element and said primary injection molded part; injecting a secondary molding material, different from that forming said primary injection molded part, into said second initial cavity formed by said secondary initial cavity forming step; moving at least said third element and said primary injection molded part contained therein with respect to said first element while keeping the cavity closed to form a secondary final cavity having a larger volumetric capacity than that of said secondary initial cavity and foaming said charged secondary molding material injected into said secondary initial cavity in said secondary final cavity to form a secondary injection-molded part integral with said primary injection molded part.
