Non-standard, resin-infused fiber bundle includes localized regions of fibers having a sub-nominal amount of polymer resin positioned along its length. These regions function as bending regions, where the non-standard resin-infused fiber bundle can be readily deformed by virtue of the reduced amount of resin. The bending regions segregate the non-standard resin-infused fiber bundle into what is, effectively, discrete (smaller) segments of (standard) resin-infused fiber bundle. The ability to easily manipulate the non-standard, resin-infused fiber bundle via the bending regions is useful for creating fiber-bundle-based preforms, and preform charges (assemblages of fiber-bundle-based preforms).

A method for manufacturing a composite product, including: 1) preparing a composite powder including 10-50 v. % of a polymer adhesive and 50-90 v. % of a chopped fiber; 2) shaping the composite powder by using a selective laser sintering technology to yield a preform including pores; 3) preparing a liquid thermosetting resin precursor, immersing the preform into the liquid thermosetting resin precursor, allowing a liquid thermosetting resin of the liquid thermosetting resin precursor to infiltrate into the pores of the preform, and exposing the upper end of the preform out of the liquid surface of the liquid thermosetting resin precursor to discharge gas out of the pores of the preform; 4) collecting the preform from the liquid thermosetting resin precursor and curing the preform; and 5) polishing the preform obtained in 4) to yield a composite product.

A method of forming an insulated structure for an appliance includes forming a structural enclosure having an outer wrapper and an inner liner and an insulating cavity defined therebetween, forming an insulating powder material, compacting the insulating powder material to form a pre-densified core material, disposing the pre-densified core material within an insulating cavity, wherein the insulating cavity is defined between the outer wrapper and the inner liner and expressing at least a portion of the gas contained within the insulating cavity, wherein the insulating cavity is hermetically sealed to define a vacuum insulated structure.

A display device includes a display member configured to display an image in a first direction and a cover member on the display member. The cover member includes a flexible member including a front part defining a front plane perpendicular to the first direction, and a first side part connected to a first side of the front part and defining a first side plane different from the front plane, and a rigid member partially overlapping the flexible member and on the front part.

In the examples provided herein, an apparatus has an optically transparent block having a filter surface. The apparatus also has two or more filters, where each of the filters has thin films fabricated on an optically transparent substrate, and further wherein the thin films of the filters are coupled to the filter surface. Additionally, the apparatus has an optically transparent overmold material encasing the two or more filters, where the overmold material fills a volume between and above neighboring ones of the two or more filters.
