Molded surface fastener manufacturing method
This manufacturing method of a molded surface fastener involves a primary molding step for forming a primary molded body and a secondary molding step for compressing a provisional element of the primary molded body while heating the same. A molding apparatus is provided with a mold member comprising multiple penetration holes and multiple concave portions, whereof each penetration hole communicates to at least one concave portion; in the primary molding step, the molding apparatus is used to form a primary molded body comprising a provisional element having a primary stem portion and a pawl portion is formed from the protruded portion by compressing the provisional element. By this means, it is possible to stably manufacture a molded surface fastener that has an engaging element comprising a pawl portion that projects from the outer peripheral edge of an engaging head portion.

BATTERY HOUSING AND METHOD FOR PRODUCING A BATTERY HOUSING
The invention relates to a battery housing (1) for an electrical battery, comprising a basic body (2) which extends in a direction of extent (E) and at least partially delimits a housing interior space (3) on the inside. The battery housing (1) moreover comprises at least one stiffening rib (4), which is shaped integrally on the inside or the outside of the basic body (2) and protrudes from the basic body (2). The stiffening rib (4) of the battery housing (1) runs on the basic body (2) in a rib direction (R) oriented at an angle to the direction of extent (E). In this respect, a body material of the basic body (2) comprises first reinforcing fibres (5), which run substantially in the direction of extent (E) and a rib material of the stiffening rib (4) comprises second reinforcing fibres (6), which run substantially in the rib direction (R).
