A method includes a first molding process and a second molding process performed repeatedly. The first molding process includes injecting resin into a first pair of molds, in which a first pair of divided pieces is formed and which is fitted together without an inner mold, to couple the first pair of divided pieces to form a first hollow article at an injection station. The second molding process includes (i) injecting resin into a third pair of molds, which is fitted together with one inner mold interposed therebetween, to mold a third pair of divided pieces at the injection station, (ii) taking out the first hollow article from the first pair of molds at a removing station, and (iii) removing another inner mold from a second pair of molds while leaving a second pair of divided pieces between the second pair of molds at the setup station.

Disclosed are a hollow component, a method for manufacturing a hollow component, and a device for manufacturing a hollow component. The method for manufacturing a hollow component according to an embodiment of the disclosure includes a first operation of molding a first injection-molded component, a second operation of molding a second injection-molded component, a third operation of causing the first injection-molded component and the second injection-molded component to face each other, a fourth operation of approaching the first injection-molded component and the second injection-molded component, and a fifth operation of coupling the first injection-molded component and the second injection-molded component. A fastening boss of the first injection-molded component is press-fitted into a fastening hole of the second injection-molded component in the fifth operation. Therefore, the fixation between the first injection-molded component and the second injection-molded component may be achieved without additional injection, and breakage and damage of the fastening boss and the fastening hole may be prevented.

An additive manufacturing method for printing an object includes receiving three-dimensional printing data corresponding to the object, defining an internal region of the object to be formed with a structured air pocket and printing the object with an additive manufacturing system. The object includes an internal region formed with a structured air pocket.

Method for forming a holder (1), by blow moulding, with a wall (3), whereby a preform is pushed against a first and second mould part (10, 11) to form an intermediate form, in which the second mould part (11) is moved and takes the intermediate form with it in order to form an edge (5) between the first and second mould part (10, 11), whereby the mould parts (10, 11) are such that the edge (5) includes a first and second edge part (13, 14)), of which the second (14) is closer to the wall (3) than the first, of which the first (13) makes an angle () to the direction of movement of the second mould part (11) and of which the second (14) makes a larger angle () to it.

A large animal feed dispensing container and method of manufacturing the container and method of using the device for delivering a controlled amount of feed to large animals in an outdoor. The housing unit and transecting plate may be molded as a single fused piece. The housing unit includes small openings intended for dispensation in the first chamber that contains feed. The housing unit contains a container for ballast material keep the feed-dispensing container to stabilize the feed-dispensing container in one location.

A fiber blank woven as a single piece by three-dimensional weaving to make a closed box-structure platform out of composite material for a turbine engine fan. In each plane of the fiber blank, a set of warp yarns interlinks layers of weft yarns in first, second, and third portions of the fiber blank, while leaving a closed non-interlinked zone separating the first and second portions over a fraction of the dimension of the fiber blank in the warp direction between an upstream non-interlinking limit and a downstream non-interlinking limit, and while leaving at least one open non-interlinked zone separating the second and third portions over a fraction of the dimension of the fiber blank in the warp direction from a non-interlinking limit to a downstream edge of the fiber blank. A method of fabricating a preform for the closed box-structure platform can use such a fiber blank.

The present invention relates to a novel process for the production of novel fiber-reinforced profile materials comprising a rigid foam core, in particular a PMI foam core. In particular, the present invention relates to a novel process which can be carried out in two variants, a short Pul-press process and a Pul-shape process. One step here produces a fiber-reinforced profile material and simultaneously inserts the rigid foam core into same. The same step moreover ensures very good binding of the rigid foam core to the fiber-reinforced profile material.

A polymer composition adapted for use in injection stretch blow molding may include a metallocene random propylene-based copolymer in the absence of a clarifier. The metallocene random propylene-based copolymer may exhibit a melting point of from 105 C. to less than 175 C., a recrystallization temperature ranging from 85 C. to 100 C. as measured by DSC, a microtacticity ranging from 89% to 99%, a molecular weight (Mw) ranging from 170,000 to 210,000, and a melt flow rate of from about 1 dg/min. to about 40 dg/min. A method of forming an injection stretch blow molded (ISBM) article may include providing the metallocene random propylene-based copolymer, injection molding the metallocene random propylene-based copolymer in the absence of a clarifier into a preform, and stretch-blowing the preform into an article.

Methods and apparatus for manufacturing vacuum forming a produce container using a fiber-based slurry. The slurry includes a moisture barrier comprising alkylketene dimer in the range of about 4% by weight, and a cationic liquid starch component in the range of 1%-7% by weight.

The present disclosure relates to a hand rail. The hand rail comprises an elongate handle and an attachment portion, the handle being connected to the attachment portion by a continuous connecting web that extends from a first end of the hand rail to a second end of the hand rail to define an elongate channel between the handle and the attachment portion, the channel being open at the first end of the handle and closed at the second end of the handle; wherein a base of the channel is sloped relative to the handle such that liquid drains out of the channel when the handle is in a horizontal orientation.
