A stationary platen unit and a movable platen unit each include a platen body, a load transmission portion, a die fixing plate, and a backup member. The backup member is located between the platen body and the die fixing plate. The backup member is movable between a first position in which it is in contact with both the die fixing plate and the platen body and a second position in which it is separate from the die fixing plate and/or the platen body. When a large die set is attached to the die fixing plate, the backup member is situated in the first position. When a small die set is attached to the die fixing plate, the backup member is moved to the second position.

What is claimed is: 1. A clamping device for selectively clamping a first die set or a second die set, each die set including a stationary die, a movable die, and parting surfaces formed between the dies, the clamping device comprising: a stationary platen unit to which the stationary die of the first die set or the stationary die of the second die set is attached; a movable platen unit to which the movable die of the first die set or the movable die of the second die set is attached; a plurality of tie bars stretched between the stationary platen unit and the movable platen unit and arranged parallel to one another at respective outer peripheral portions of the platen units; and a pressure mechanism which presses the stationary platen unit and the movable platen unit toward each other, at least one of the stationary and movable platen units including a platen body configured to be pressed by the pressure mechanism, a load transmission portion having a pressure surface projecting toward the die set from a central part of a platen body region which is surrounded by the tie bars, a die fixing plate located on the pressure surface and having a die fixing surface wider than the load transmission portion, a space portion formed around the load transmission portion and between the platen body and the die fixing plate, and a backup member disposed in the space portion between the platen body and the die fixing plate, the backup member being configured to move between a first position in which the backup member is in contact with both the platen body and the die fixing plate and a second position in which the backup member is separate from the platen body or the die fixing plate, and the backup member being situated in the first position when the first die set with the parting surfaces wider than the pressure surface is attached to the die fixing plate and being moved to the second position when the second die set smaller than the first die set is attached to the die fixing plate. 2. A clamping device according to claim 1, which further comprises an actuator for loading and unloading the backup member through the side of the platen body. 3. A clamping device according to claim 2, which further comprises a controller which controls the actuator to move the backup member between the first position and the second position. 4. A clamping device according to claim 3, which further comprises a sensor for determining whether the die set attached to the die fixing plate is the first die set or the second die set. 5. A clamping device according to claim 1, wherein the backup member is a wedge-shaped backup member movable parallel to the die fixing surface, and which further comprises an actuator for moving the backup member parallel to the die fixing surface. 6. A clamping device according to claim 1, wherein the backup member is movable at right angles to the die fixing surface, and which further comprises an actuator for moving the backup member at right angles to the die fixing surface. 7. A clamping device according to claim 6, wherein the backup member and the actuator are disposed for movement parallel to the die fixing surface. 8. A clamping device according to claim 7, which further comprises a moving mechanism for moving the backup member and the actuator parallel to the die fixing surface. 9. An injection molding machine comprising the clamping device according to claim 1 and an injection device for injecting a molten material into the die set clamped by the clamping device. 10. A clamping device for clamping a die set which includes a stationary die, a movable die, and parting surfaces formed between the dies, comprising: a stationary platen unit to which the stationary die is attached; a movable platen unit to which the movable die is attached; a plurality of tie bars stretched between the stationary platen unit and the movable platen unit and arranged parallel to one another at respective outer peripheral portions of the platen units; and a pressure mechanism which presses the stationary platen unit and the movable platen unit toward each other, at least one of the stationary and movable platen units including a platen body configured to be pressed by the pressure mechanism, a load transmission portion having a pressure surface projecting toward the die set from a central part of a platen body region which is surrounded by the tie bars, a die fixing plate located on the pressure surface and having a die fixing surface wider than the load transmission portion, a space portion formed around the load transmission portion and between the platen body and the die fixing plate, a backup member disposed in the space portion between the platen body and the die fixing plate, the backup member being configured to move between a first position in which the backup member is in contact with both the platen body and the die fixing plate and a second position in which the backup member is separate from the platen body and/or the die fixing plate, the backup member being adapted to be situated in the first position when a first die set with the parting surfaces wider than the pressure surface is attached to the die fixing plate, and to be moved to the second position when a second die set with the parting surfaces narrower than the pressure surface is attached to the die fixing plate, an actuator for loading and unloading the backup member through a side of the platen body, a sensor for determining whether the die set attached to the die fixing plate is the first die set or the second die set, and a controller which controls the actuator to move the backup member between the first position and the second position in response to the determination by the sensor of whether the die set attached to the die fixing plate is the first die set or the second die set. 11. A clamping device for clamping a die set which includes a stationary die, a movable die, and parting surfaces formed between the dies, comprising: a stationary platen unit to which the stationary die is attached; a movable platen unit to which the movable die is attached; a plurality of tie bars stretched between the stationary platen unit and the movable platen unit and arranged parallel to one another at respective outer peripheral portions of the platen units; and a pressure mechanism which presses the stationary platen unit and the movable platen unit toward each other, at least one of the stationary and movable platen units including a platen body configured to be pressed by the pressure mechanism, a load transmission portion having a pressure surface projecting toward the die set from a central part of a platen body region which is surrounded by the tie bars, a die fixing plate located on the pressure surface and having a die fixing surface wider than the load transmission portion, a space portion formed around the load transmission portion and between the platen body and the die fixing plate, and a backup member disposed in the space portion between the platen body and the die fixing plate, the backup member being movable at right angles to the die fixing surface, and an actuator for moving the backup member at right angles to the die fixing surface, the backup member being configured to move between a first position in which the backup member is in contact with both the platen body and the die fixing plate and a second position in which the backup member is separate from the platen body and/or the die fixing plate, the backup member being adapted to be situated in the first position when a first die set with the parting surfaces wider than the pressure surface is attached to the die fixing plate, and to be moved to the second position when a second die set with the parting surfaces narrower than the pressure surface is attached to the die fixing plate. 12.
