A hot stamping apparatus and a hot stamping method are for collectively decorating a plurality of decoration objects using a decorative sheet. In a hot stamping apparatus, an upper chamber and a lower chamber are partitioned by a partition sheet and pressing bodies, so that decorative sheet pieces can be used instead of a decorative sheet having a large area. Then, by using the decorative sheet pieces, local thermal deformation can be prevented. A usage amount of the decorative sheet can be reduced, and three-dimensional decoration can be implemented as needed on a portion requiring decoration.

A sport ball including a bladder enclosing a volume of gas. The sport ball further includes a casing including a casted material, wherein the casing encloses the bladder.

A composite molded cargo body panel including a core, an interior skin secured to a first side of the core having a thickness, and exterior skin secured to a second side of the core, and a plurality of recesses. The plurality of recesses are dispersed along a first direction at intervals in the interior skin, with the core thickness at each of the plurality of recesses being reduced compared to a maximum core thickness, and each of the plurality of recesses defines a support surface. A pocket is formed in each of the plurality of recesses, with the core thickness at the pocket being less than the core thickness at each of the plurality of recesses. A plurality of logistics inserts are attached to the respective support surfaces of the plurality of recesses so that, at each of the plurality of recesses, the logistics insert extends across the pocket.

An objective of the present invention is to provide an anti-reflection film laminate which is for manufacturing an anti-reflection film having low surface reflectance and good anti-reflection properties, as well as excellent thermoformability and scratch resistance. The aforementioned problem is resolved by the following anti-reflection film laminate. This anti-reflection film laminate comprises: a first laminate having a base film that has a release surface, and an optical interference layer laminated on the release surface; and a second laminate having a substrate layer that contains a thermoplastic resin, and an uncured hardcoat layer that is laminated on one surface of the substrate layer and comprises a curable hardcoat composition. The first and second laminate bodies are pressure bonded such that the optical interference layer of the first laminate and the uncured hardcoat layer of the second laminate are in contact with each other.

Disclosed are an exterior for a secondary battery and an apparatus and method for manufacturing the exterior for the secondary battery.

According to one aspect of the present invention, a method for manufacturing an exterior for a secondary battery comprises: a first step of preparing a sheet and a mold in which a recess part (I) is formed; a second step of locating the sheet so that a portion of the sheet faces the recess part (I); and a third step of supplying a fluid from the side of the mold toward the recess part (I) to form a forming part having a shape corresponding to that of the recess part (I) in an area of the sheet, which is provided on the recess part (I).
