Method and fixture for molding a tank with an embedded ring

A method of and fixture for molding a product with an embedded ring. A system for molding a ring into a product including a rotational molding mold with an opening formed in the rotational molding mold sized to fit a ring. A fixture is removably couplable to the ring, wherein the ring and the fixture when coupled are removably couplable in the opening. The fixture is removed from the ring after the ring is molded into a product. A method of manufacturing a product with an embedded ring includes: coupling a ring to a fixture; clamping the fixture and the ring in an opening in a mold top; clamping the mold top to a mold bottom; rotomolding a product; unclamping the fixture from the mold top; uncoupling the fixture from the ring; unclamping the mold top and the mold bottom; and removing the product from the mold.

High strength mechanical fastening inclusions for fiber reinforced polymer structures

A fastening inclusion is provided and includes a hard point made of coalesced metal sheets, metal or fiber flanges extending from edges of the hard point, and a fastener arranged on the hard point. The fastening inclusion can be incorporated into a fiber reinforced polymer structure by interleaving the flanges with fiber reinforced resin plies, and then curing the fiber reinforced plies to form a composite structure. The fastener on the hard point may be used for mechanically connecting the composite structure to a separate component, such as a metal component on a vehicle.

System and method for producing multi-material hybrids with a foam structure
11745399 · 2023-09-05 · ·

This system and method provide for manufacturing a multi-material hybrid structure comprising a single- or multi-layer sheet or tube, which are made of metals, fabrics, polymer and their combinations, and at least one layer or body made of formed resin. The methods include a simultaneous forming-injection process that followed with an additional sequence to initiate the forming process along with curing and/or solidification and/or bonding processes. The additional sequence provides a pressure drop inside the cavity using tool movement and or additional deformation of one/or several layers of the sheet using any fluid pressure, suction and/or electromagnetic force. The injection process can be used for any kind of synthetic or bio-based resin with or without fiber reinforcement. It is also integrated with supercritical assisted technology.
