A ventilation housing includes a housing and ventilation component. A housing tubular projecting part has a communicating hole between housing inner and outer spaces. The ventilation component has: an attachment member over the projecting part with a contacting inner surface; an attachment member supported ventilation body covering a hole end portion between the inner and outer spaces; and a covering member including peripheral and top parts over the attachment member. At least one ventilation path connects the ventilation body and the outer space. A first contact part between an attachment member outer surface outermost protruding portion and covering member peripheral part inner surface is closer to the inner space than an end portion on the outer space side in a second contact part being a contact portion between the housing projecting part outer surface and the attachment member inner surface.

A closure (1) for sealingly closing a container neck (11) having a tubular body (2) with a top wall (4), an annular side wall (5), an intermediate wall (6) joining the side wall (5) to the top wall (4) and an annular tamper evidence band (3) frangibly connected to an open end (21) described by the side wall (5). The band (3) includes retaining cams (31) protruding from its inner surface (30). Each cam (31) has a lead-in ramp (32) for engaging, in use, the flange (12) of a container neck (11) as the neck (11) is introduced into the open end (21) of the body (2) and a stop (33) for engaging the flange (12) to separate the band (3) from the body (2) when the closure (1) is subsequently removed from the neck (11). Each lead-in ramp (32) has a central recess (34) therein.

A method of forming set pin hole of an insulated carbine hook includes: providing a core material with a perforation and a recess; putting the core material in a mold cavity of a mold including a movable pin protruding from an inner surface of the mold cavity, which is at an opening of the perforation; filling insulated material between an outer surface of the core material and the inner surface, and in the perforation and recess; forming an insulated layer on the outer surface and in the perforation and recess to obtain an insulated intermediate having a notch at the opening; aiming a removal tool at the notch; removing the insulated material at the other opening of and in the perforation, and at an opening of and in the recess to form the set pin hole, which makes the manufacturing a main body of the insulated carbine hook easy.

A ventilation housing includes a housing and ventilation component. A housing tubular projecting part has a communicating hole between housing inner and outer spaces. The ventilation component has: an attachment member over the projecting part with a contacting inner surface; an attachment member supported ventilation body covering a hole end portion between the inner and outer spaces; and a covering member including peripheral and top parts over the attachment member. At least one ventilation path connects the ventilation body and the outer space. A first contact part between an attachment member outer surface outermost protruding portion and covering member peripheral part inner surface is closer to the inner space than an end portion on the outer space side in a second contact part being a contact portion between the housing projecting part outer surface and the attachment member inner surface.

A mould assembly for a skimmer box lid includes a mould including a floor and a sidewall extending from the floor, the floor and sidewall defining a mould cavity into which a settable material can be introduced. The floor defines at least one aperture. The assembly includes at least one mould insert having a tubular body that is configured for attachment to the floor to extend from the floor to a height that is at least substantially equivalent to a height of the sidewall, the tubular body defining an elongate passage to be in register with a respective aperture such that, when the settable material is introduced into the mould cavity and subsequently sets, the mould body, the, or each, mould insert, and the settable material form the skimmer box lid with the, or each, passage extending through the skimmer box lid so that a suitable tool can be used to lift the skimmer box lid.

An extruded part is formed by extrusion of at least one polymer melt, wherein the polymer melt or polymer melts has/have two melt fronts, which form two material inner edges of the extruded part when the polymer melt or polymer melts is/are in the solidified state; —the two material inner edges are integrally bonded to each other and define a linear binding seam of the extruded part. The binding seam is situated in a connection region of the extruded part; and —the extruded part has at least one fiber grid, which is situated in the connection region of the extruded part and is connected to the extruded part such that the fiber grid bridges the two material inner edges. The extruded part may be a part of a battery housing for a traction battery.

A closure for sealingly closing a container neck having a tubular body with a top wall, an annular side wall, an intermediate wall joining the side wall to the top wall and an annular tamper evidence band frangibly connected to an open end described by the side wall. The band includes retaining cams protruding from its inner surface. Each cam has a lead-in ramp for engaging, in use, the flange of a container neck as the neck is introduced into the open end of the body and a stop for engaging the flange to separate the band from the body when the closure is subsequently removed from the neck. Each lead-in ramp has a central recess therein.

Fluid transfer assemblies for transferring fluid into or out of a single vessel and distributing the fluid to multiple other vessels are provided. The fluid transfer assemblies are customizable, substantially aseptic, and single-use. The fluid transfer assemblies may be manufactured by solidifying polymeric materials to form a body around a mandrel with protrusions engaged to fluid conduits and leaving recesses in the solidified polymeric material to stretch the resultant body and remove the mandrel with protrusions. The resultant fluid transfer assembly may be surrounded by a rigid housing and valves may be engaged with the conduits and/or body to control the fluid flow within the fluid transfer assembly.

The invention concerns in particular a device for moulding an article in which the article is obtained by compression moulding a dose (14) of material in the molten state and comprises at least one orifice (23) after the compression moulding operation, said device comprising at least one die (10), one mandrel (11) cooperating with said die (10) to effect the operation of compression moulding of the dose and one orifice rod (12) sliding in said die (10), said device further comprising a shape endpiece (13) placed between the mandrel (11) and the orifice rod (12) to form the orifice (23) of the article.

A container having an annular sidewall with upper and lower annular peripheral edges and a lattice structure of elongate ribs interconnecting the upper and lower annular peripheral edges, wherein the lattice structure is an open framework defining a plurality of sidewall openings, and a base having an annular peripheral edge which is integral with the lower annular peripheral edge of the sidewall, the annular peripheral edge of the base surrounding a base wall structure which is integral therewith, the base wall structure having at least one injection moulding sprue at a central region of the base wall structure, wherein the at least one injection moulding sprue is connected to the upper annular peripheral edge of the annular sidewall by the base wall structure, the annular peripheral edge of the base, the lower annular peripheral edge of the sidewall and the lattice structure of the sidewall, wherein the sidewall and the base are composed of a thermoplastic polymer and define a central concavity for packaging a product, and wherein the container further has a flexible sheet which is bonded to the lattice structure to cover the sidewall openings and form a sealed sidewall surface of the container.
