A conductive member module has a pair of conductive members formed in a plate shape and facing each other, and a sealing part. The conductive member module is produced by performing an accommodation step, a sealing step, and an extraction step. In the accommodation step, the two individual conductive members are sandwiched in the facing orientation thereof by outer support members abutting outer surfaces of the conductive members, and inner support members abutting inner surfaces of the conductive members. Outer recesses are formed in the outer surfaces by the outer support members, and inner recesses are formed in the inner surfaces by the inner support members. The outer recesses are deeper in the Z direction than the inner recesses.

A tool for installing a liquid shim material into a clearance formed between an assembly first and second component includes a body having a first end and a second end. The first end includes a planar surface and the second end includes a first surface and a second surface arranged at an angle to the first end and to one another. At least one hole is formed in the body. The at least one hole extends from the first end to the second end and is configured to provide a passageway through the body. The tool is arranged adjacent the assembled first and second component such that the passageway formed by the at least one hole is arranged in fluid communication with the clearance.

A disclosed manufacturing method includes a step for draping a fiber reinforcement, into a plurality of superposed layers, a step for providing resin in the fiber reinforcement, and a step for polymerizing the resin. The method includes, prior to the draping step, a step for making cutouts with a predetermined shape in the fiber reinforcement, and during the draping step, the layers of fiber reinforcement are superposed by putting the cutouts facing each other, the whole of the cutouts of the superposed layers forming a housing at least for an insert.

The present invention is directed to a method of forming plurality of golf balls comprising steps of: providing plurality of inner cores; forming sheet of uncured rubber; forming plurality of preps in the sheet of uncured rubber such that each prep contains a concave top surface and is detachably connected to coupling material; loading the preps and coupling material into a core mold; loading plurality of inner cores into mold such that the inner cores are aligned with the concave surface of each prep; molding the preps about the inner cores to form outer core layers; and forming covers about outer core layers.

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.

A mold is provided for producing a composite part comprising at least one insert and a thermoplastic overmolding covering, at least partially, said at least one insert. The mold comprises at least one clamp capable of contacting said at least one insert in order to secure said at least one insert.

An optical device manufacturing method and an optical device capable of forming a desired cured resin layer regardless of shapes of cover members. The method includes closely laminating a cover member having an opening onto a mold member having a fitting projection which fits to the opening so that the fitting projection is fitted to the opening to form a hollow laminated body capable of being filled with a curable resin; filling the hollow portion of the laminated body with the curable resin; curing the curable resin to form a cured resin layer on the cover member; peeling off the mold member from the cover member; and bonding the cured resin layer and an optical member.

An imprint apparatus brings an imprint material on a substrate including a first mark into contact with a mold including a second mark and cures the imprint material, thereby forming a cured product of the imprint material on the substrate. The apparatus includes a plurality of detectors used for alignment detection, and a controller configured to obtain a plurality of pieces of relative position information by detecting a relative position between the first mark and the second mark a plurality of times using the plurality of detectors in a state in which the imprint material is cured and a positional relationship between the substrate and the mold is maintained, and to calibrate, based on the plurality of pieces of relative position information, a plurality of detection processing operations each performed using each of the plurality of detectors.
