Captured image data provided to the central data processor is processed to detect objects that are within the field of view of the forward viewing camera and/or the field of view of the rear backup camera. Captured radar data is also provided to the central data processor and, via processing of captured image data and captured radar data, a potential hazard is determined to exist. A display device includes a video screen that displays video images captured by the rear backup camera for viewing by a driver of the vehicle during the rearward maneuver of the vehicle, and an overlay overlays the displayed video images captured by the rear backup camera during the rearward maneuver of the equipped vehicle.

Co-molded 3D elements

Describes are support elements for a sole of a shoe, in particular a sports shoe, a sole and a shoe with such a support element, as well as a method for the manufacture of a support element. As examples, the support element includes a first partial member formed of a first material, and a second partial member formed of a second material. The first partial member is mechanically joined to the second partial member in a connection region, wherein the connection region is configured to allow the first partial member to rotate or slide relative to the second partial member. The first partial member, the second partial member, and the connection region can be co-molded and joined together in a single fabricating step.

Manufacture of cap for container
10647486 · 2020-05-12 · ·

A cap for a container is formed so that the cap has a top plate and a circular sidewall. Two opposite sides of the circular sidewall circularly connect to each other, one periphery of the circular sidewall connecting to one surface of the top plate forming a closed end, and another periphery of the circular sidewall at an opposite side of the closed end forms an opened end. Incision lines are in the circular sidewall. The incision lines form a ring member located at the opened end of the cap separated from a main body of the cap by a first incision line in between the opened end of the main body and the ring member. The ring member is connected to the main body by a plurality of connecting portions.

Temple for a pair of glasses

A method for production of an eyeglass temple, the method including an injection of a first material into an injection molding tool upon forming an eyeglass temple main part with a main body and an inclination bearing body, and an injection of a second material into an eyeglass temple adjustment part cavity of the injection molding tool upon overmolding at least partly the inclination bearing body to form an eyeglass temple adjustment part, which is penetrated by the inclination bearing body and pivotable in relation thereto, after the first material has cured at least partly, and a removal of the eyeglass temple, which is in an eyeglass temple injection molding position, from the injection molding tool when the first material and the second material have cured at least partly.

System and method of making a housing for an information handling system

In one or more embodiments, one or more systems, methods, and/or processes may inject material into a mold for a housing of an information handling system through at least one cavity for at least one pivot and through multiple positions adjacent to a clickpad cavity to create a clickpad portion of the housing; may create multiple bridges at multiple positions that bind the clickpad portion of the housing to other portions of the housing; and may remove the multiple bridges to permit the clickpad portion of the housing to rotate about the at least one pivot. For example, the housing of the information handling system, the at least one pivot, and the clickpad holder may be formed of a unitary material. For instance, the unitary material may be or include a polymer.
