The present invention provides a resin molded body with a hook-and-loop fastener excellent in engaging force, and a method for producing the same. In addition, the present invention provides a method for fixing a ceiling material for automobiles to a vehicle body, which has an adhesive force for a long period of time even under high temperature or low temperature conditions, is excellent in productivity, and does not cause a problem such as falling of a male-type engaging element even when a hot melt adhesive is used. A resin molded body with a hook-and-loop fastener, which is formed by integrating a non-foamed resin molded body and a male-type molded hook-and-loop fastener, wherein the male-type molded hook-and-loop fastener has at least a base plate, a plurality of male-type engaging elements rising from a front surface of the base plate, and a plurality of embedded elements rising from a back surface of the base plate, wherein a resin constituting the male-type molded hook-and-loop fastener is at least one selected from polyester elastomer and polyamide, and the resin molded body and the male-type molded hook-and-loop fastener are integrated by embedding at least a part of the embedded elements in the resin molded body.

A laser weldable hook-and-loop fastener contains a laser light transmitting male-type molded hook-and-loop fastener (A) and a laser light absorbing layer (B) formed of a thermoplastic resin, which is integrated on the back surface of the male-type molded hook-and-loop fastener (A). The male-type molded hook-and-loop fastener (A) has a base plate and a large number of male-type engaging elements rising from the surface of the base plate. The male-type engaging elements and the base plate are formed of the same resin selected from a polyester elastomer and a polyamide, the male-type engaging elements are arranged in a row, and the laser light absorbing layer (B) has an infrared absorptance of 85% or more at a wavelength of 980 nm.

A reusable closure system for providing easy closure and opening of an object such as a sheet forming a barrier. The reusable closure system generally includes a backing member adapted to be secured to an object, such as by an adhesive. A closure member may be connected to the backing member, with the closure member including a first portion which is removably connected to a second portion by one or more magnets. An optional outer closure member may be connected to the closure member, with the outer closure member including a zipper. Thus, the reusable closure system may be secured to various objects to allow for selective opening or closing of the objects in a versatile, user-selected manner.

A mold in fastener product includes a flexible substrate, such as a resin film or textile sheet, and a resin layer covering only part of one side of the flexible substrate and leaving a region of the one side of the flexible substrate exposed, the resin layer carrying multiple touch fastener elements each having a resin stem extending integrally from the layer away from the flexible substrate to an engageable head. A flexible ferromagnetic strip is bonded to the flexible substrate and at least partially bounds a bounded portion of the flexible substrate containing at least some of the touch fastener elements and at least a part of the exposed region. The product is preferably wide, such as to cover a wide concave region of a foam seat cushion.

A securement assembly for a garment which includes a pocket positioned on a side panel of the garment. The securement assembly further includes an insert panel connected to a front portion of the garment such that the insert panel rotates relative to the front portion for inserting the insert panel into the pocket.

The invention relates to a laminate (1) comprising at least one support element (2), for example a nonwoven fabric, in particular an SMS nonwoven, and at least one nonwoven loop fabric (3), in particular a carded nonwoven, secured to the support element (1), in particular by means of calendaring with the first nonwoven fabric, characterised in that the curve representing the force required to stretch the laminate along a given axis (e.g. the MD axis or the CD axis of the laminate) as a function of elongation, comprises a segment in which, starting from a zero elongation value, the force increases from zero up to a maximum force, corresponding in particular to the rupture of the laminate, and the curve comprises an inflection point (Pi) on said segment.

A molding apparatus (10) for forming a retaining device. The molding apparatus (10) comprises a molding strip (12) and a molding support (24). The molding strip (12) has an inside face (14), an outside face (16), and a plurality of through cavities (18) extending from the outside face (16) to the inside face (14), the molding strip (12) extending in a longitudinal direction (X) and presenting both a transverse direction (Y) perpendicular to the longitudinal direction (X), and also a height direction (Z) perpendicular to the longitudinal direction (X) and to the transverse direction (Y). The inside face (14) is configured to press against a molding face (26) of the molding support (24), wherein the inside face (14) of the molding strip (12) and/or the molding face (26) of the molding support (24) includes an array of passages, the array of passages forming vents and connecting together the cavities (18) when the molding strip (12) is pressed against the molding support (24).

Provided is a molding apparatus used for manufacturing a molded surface fastener wherein a die wheel driving rotationally has a concentric double cylinder structure provided with an outer side cylindrical body that has provided therethrough a plurality of penetrating holes, and an inner side cylindrical body that has formed, in the outer peripheral surface thereof, a plurality of grooved portions, the grooved portions located in the inner side cylindrical body include a use grooved portion that intersects with the penetrating hole of the outer side cylindrical body and a non-use grooved portion that is covered by the inner peripheral surface of the outer side cylindrical body.
