The invention relates to a composite component that has improved bonding properties and includes a substrate (i) made of a thermoplastic polymer blend composition, and a coating (ii); in a layer located 5 to 10 μm below the boundary surface between the substrate (i) and the coating (ii), the substrate (i) has a dispersed, non-lamellar phase structure. The invention also relates to a method for manufacturing the composite component.

An injection molding machine includes a machine base; a stationary platen fixed to the base for holding a stationary mold section; a moving platen slidably supported by the base for holding a moving mold section; a rotary apparatus slidably supported by the base axially intermediate the stationary and moving platens for supporting a plurality of center mold sections and moving the center mold sections among axial positions directed toward the stationary and moving mold sections and lateral positions directed toward the operator and non-operator side of the machine; and a part-handling apparatus mounted to the stationary platen. The part-handling apparatus includes an end-of-arm tooling disposed laterally outboard of the rotary apparatus. The end-of-arm tooling is movable laterally between an engaged position for interacting with molded articles in one of the center mold sections in the lateral positions, and a disengaged position spaced laterally outwardly from the engaged position.

An instrument panel (10) includes a base material portion (20) made of a base material M1 and a different material portion (30) made of a different material M2 having a different thermal shrinkage from that of the base material M1, and in the instrument panel (10), the base material portion (20) and the different material portion (30) are connected in a state such that at least a part of the two materials do not overlap.

A syringe includes a syringe body, a syringe cone having a distal opening, and a connection arranged in the region of the syringe cone, wherein the syringe body includes a first material and the connection includes a second material, and wherein the first material is different from the second material and the second material is a softer material than the first material.

A method for manufacturing a microfluidic device can include providing a base component to define a first portion of the microfluidic device. A cap component of the microfluidic device can be fabricated with a sealing lip extending a first distance from a first side of the cap component and a support portion extending a second distance, less than the first distance, from the first side of the cap component. The method can include positioning the cap component and the base component within a mold to bring the sealing lip of the cap component in contact with the base component. The base component, the support portion of the cap component, and the sealing lip of the cap component together can define a cavity. The method can include injecting a polymer material into the mold to cause the polymer material to fill the cavity.

The present disclosure provides a microfluidic chip and a droplet separation method, and belongs to the field of biological chip technology. The microfluidic chip includes a first liquid tank and a second liquid tank opposite to each other and a channel layer therebetween. The channel layer includes a plurality of microfluidic channels separated from each other, first ends of the microfluidic channels are communicated with the first liquid tank, and second ends are communicated with the second liquid tank. The first liquid tank contains sample solution to be detected, and the second liquid tank contains encapsulating liquid. The sample solution to be detected entering the first liquid tank may be separated into a plurality of sample droplets through the microfluidic channels, the separated sample droplets enter the second liquid tank, so that the encapsulating liquid is encapsulated on a surface of each of the plurality of sample droplets.

A hot runner mold includes a hot runner mold body portion that is fixed to a fixing plate and supplies a molten resin received from a resin inlet to an injection mold, a nozzle receiving portion that is disposed to be inclined with respect to a position orthogonal to the resin inlet of the hot runner mold body portion and is coaxially connected to a nozzle of an injection device that supplies the molten resin, a relay portion that has a resin flow path having a bent portion therein and guides the molten resin from the nozzle receiving portion to the resin inlet, and a regulating portion that is fixed to the fixing plate and regulates movement of the nozzle receiving portion or the relay portion with respect to the hot runner mold body portion.

Provided is a rotation member connecting structure that does not require an operation of connecting a rotation support member and the rotation member to each other and can prevent rattling of the rotation member with respect to a rotation member support member. In the rotation member connecting structure, a rotation support member 10 has a support shaft 20, and a rotation member 30 has a retention part 50. The support shaft 20 has a restriction part 25 that restricts axial movement of the support shaft 20 with respect to the retention part 50 and a sliding part 27 that slides over an inner periphery of the retention part. The rotation support member 10 and the rotation member 30 are made of materials that are not bonded to each other during molding by the resin materials. In the inner periphery of the retention part 50,a portion that closely contacts the sliding part 27 is formed to be continuous in a circumferential direction so that the rotation support member 10 and the rotation member 30 are molded in a connected state.
