A method of manufacturing a dog toy, the dog toy including a rope, at least a segment of which is non-linear and a thermoplastic rubber coating surrounding some but not all of the rope. The dog toy is characterized as having exposed rope and rope covered by the thermoplastic rubber along its length such that a dog using the dog toy has access to the rope for chewing but the rope is resistant to degradation due to the thermoplastic rubber coating. The method includes bending the rope for a sufficient period of time such that the rope maintains its non-linear configuration, thereupon the rope is applied together with a pre-molded thermoplastic round core to a mold and the thermoplastic rubber is bonded to the rope to create the shape of the toy and to surround some, but not all of the rope with the thermoplastic rubber coating.

A duck call including a sounding portion, a reed coupled to the sounding portion, and a mouthpiece. The mouthpiece body has the sounding portion inserted therein. At least one of the sounding portion and the mouthpiece body having an outer wall with an internal infill pattern. The internal infill pattern has at least one cross-sectional lattice structure with a repeating pattern of voids.

A road vehicle having: a bottom wall, which, in use, faces a road surface; a body, which delimits a passenger compartment; and an aerodynamic sound generation system, which is configured to generate sounds making use of the head wind, namely the movement of air relative to the road vehicle generated by the forward movement of the road vehicle.

This tape attachment has: one or more crossbar parts that extend along a first direction; a pair of side support parts that support the crossbar parts; and a whistle part provided with a blowing hole and a discharge hole, the whistle part having a hollow section in which the pressure of air guided from the blowing hole is increased, the hollow section being positioned on the downstream side in the air passage direction in relation to the discharge hole, and the hollow section being provided in at least a part of the crossbar parts and the pair of side support parts. It is thereby possible to reduce the size of a tape attachment provided with a whistle function.
