An injection molded component includes a wall that has an inner wall surface and an outer wall surface. A sensor is molded into one of the inner wall surface and the outer wall surface. A channel is at least partially surrounding the sensor.

A metal component has a shape including a flat plate-shaped part, and the flat plate-shaped part has a through-hole formed therein. A resin component has a shape including a covering part that covers a surface of the flat plate-shaped part, and the covering part has a surface in which a gate mark is present. The through-hole formed in the flat plate-shaped part of the metal component is located opposite to the gate mark. The resin component has a filler part with which the through-hole is filled.

A measuring apparatus of bulk viscosity includes a temperature-controlling cylinder having a test chamber for holding a molding material and at least one piston configured to seal an opening of the temperature-controlling cylinder. The temperature-controlling cylinder and the at least one piston are configured for measuring pressures, specific volumes and temperatures (PVT) of the molding material by applying a plurality of cooling rates to the molding material inside the testing chamber under an isobaric environment, or applying a plurality of mechanical pressures to the molding material inside the testing chamber under an isothermal environment. The measuring apparatus further includes a process module configured for deriving a plurality of parameters in relation to the pressures, specific volumes and temperatures (PVT) of the molding material based on the measurement; deriving an equilibrium pressure based on the plurality of parameters obtained from a first slowest cooling rate among the plurality of cooling rates.

The present invention provides a method of making a metal injection molded ammunition cartridge comprising the steps of: providing an ammunition cartridge mold comprising a bottom portion having a primer recess extending into the bottom portion adapted to receive a primer, a flash hole positioned in the primer recess through the bottom surface; side walls extending from the bottom portion to a nose end aperture, wherein a propellant chamber is formed between the nose end aperture and the bottom surface; injecting a metal composition into the ammunition cartridge mold to form a metal injection molded ammunition cartridge; and removing the metal injection molded ammunition cartridge from the ammunition cartridge mold.

Provided is an inexpensive mesh filter with high productivity. This mesh filter, which is an integrally molded product of resin, includes: a mesh part in which a plurality of ribs are disposed in a lattice shape; a rim part which is formed in an annular shape so as to surround the mesh part, and to which the plurality of ribs are connected; and a final filling part which is disposed on the inner side of the rim part, and to which some of the plurality of ribs are connected. The cross-sectional area of at least one rib among the ribs connected to the final filling part is smaller than the cross-sectional area of at least one rib among the ribs not connected to the final filling part.

A mold for casting a polymeric aircraft window panel includes a first mold half having a first mold surface, and a second mold half having a second mold surface. The first mold surface and/or the second mold surface have a shape conforming to a final shape for the major surfaces of the aircraft window panel. The first mold half and/or the second mold half can be formed of rolled, hydroformed, or stamped metal.

A method includes applying a mold chase to a fluid ejection die to at least partially define at least one cavity. The mold chase includes a feature to contact a fluid ejection portion of the fluid ejection die, and at least one structure separate from the feature to contact a first end portion adjacent a first end of the fluid ejection die. The method includes filling the at least one cavity with a mold compound to produce a molded carrier for the fluid ejection die.

A catheter includes an elongated shaft extending in a longitudinal direction and possessing an outer surface, the shaft possessing a distal end, a proximal end and a proximal portion which includes the proximal end, a transverse direction being perpendicular to the longitudinal direction, the elongated shaft being an elongated tubular body having a lumen formed therein, and a tubular hub fixed by insert molding to the outer surface of the shaft along the proximal portion of the shaft. The hub possesses a residual stress at one predetermined location of the hub that exceeds the residual stress of the hub at each of: (i) a first position distal to the one predetermined location, (ii) a second position proximal to the one predetermined location, and (iii) a third position being at the one predetermined location in the longitudinal direction and spaced apart from the one predetermined location in the transverse direction.

A method for forming a seal between structural components includes placing a retainer flap on a first side of a first structural component over a first channel within the first structural component and over a second channel within the first structural component such that the retainer flap, the first side of the first structural component, and a second structural component form a cavity. The first channel extends between the first side of the first structural component and a second side of the first structural component that is opposite the first side. The second channel extends between the first side of the first structural component and the second side of the first structural component. The method also includes evacuating the cavity through the first channel, thereby forcing the retainer flap against the second structural component and forcing a sealant to flow through the second channel into the cavity.

The present invention is directed to a golf ball having a non-planar parting line on its spherical surface. The non-planar parting line includes a plurality of arcuate segments, including at least one elliptical arc segment.
