A method for manufacturing a case for a mobile device with a screen, includes using a band having a layer of flexible polymer as an insert mold or in a dual injection process, for applying discrete discontinuous and unconnected damping material on the layer of the flexible polymer of the band. The damping material is softer than the flexible polymer and has a plurality of integrally formed protrusions projecting inwardly from a substantial portion of the inner periphery of the band to engage with the mobile device. The protrusions are arranged such that, in use there is substantially no contact between the band and the device other than through the protrusions.

An intravenous delivery system may have a liquid source containing a liquid, tubing, and an anti-run-dry membrane positioned such that the liquid, flowing form the liquid source to the tubing, passes through the anti-run-dry membrane. The anti-run-dry membrane may be positioned within an exterior wall of a drip unit, and may be secured to a seat of the exterior wall by an attachment component. The attachment component may have various forms, such as a secondary exterior wall that cooperates with the exterior wall to define a drip chamber, a washer positioned such that the anti-run-dry membrane is between the washer and the seat, and an adhesive ring formed of a pressure sensitive adhesive and secured to the anti-run-dry membrane and the seat via compression. Interference features may protrude inward from the exterior wall or outward from the anti-run-dry membrane to help keep the anti-run-dry membrane in place.

A mudguard member for a saddled vehicle covering above a rear wheel, a rear fender as a mudguard member is formed from fiber-reinforced resin. The rear fender has a surface provided with a resin-made reinforcing rib, the surface facing toward the rear wheel. The rear fender is formed in an elongated shape including: a vehicle attached portion that is arranged at a vehicle-front-side; and a length extension portion that extends from the vehicle attached portion toward the rear of the vehicle body. The length extension portion has a top panel and side panels that extend obliquely downward from both vehicle-widthwise sides of the top panel. The reinforcing rib includes: longitudinal ribs that extend from the vehicle attached portion to a vehicle-longitudinal center of the length extension portion; and transverse ribs that are arranged in a grip pattern in conjunction with the longitudinal ribs.

Composite materials having superior material properties useful as impact absorbing devices can be fabricated by embedding a lattice structure (e.g., polymer lattice structure) within a foam, so that the foam reinforces the lattice structure under impact. Materials and dimensions of the foam and the lattice structure may be selected to achieve composite materials having tailored impact absorbing elastic and/or viscoelastic responses over a wide range of temperatures.

An additive manufacturing system is disclosed. The additive manufacturing system may include a matrix reservoir, a primary nozzle fluidly connected to the matrix reservoir, and a primary cure enhancer operatively connected to at least one of the matrix reservoir and the primary nozzle. The primary cure enhancer may be configured to direct a cure energy toward a tip of the primary nozzle. The additive manufacturing system may also include an auxiliary nozzle, an arm configured to mount the auxiliary nozzle at a trailing side of the primary nozzle, and a passage extending from the matrix reservoir to the auxiliary nozzle.

A desired shape can be easily realized, and a decrease in strength can be inhibited. A method for producing a composite material includes: an insertion step of inserting an inner member in which a second reinforcing fiber is impregnated with a resin into a space of an outer member that is formed of a woven first reinforcing fiber extending in an undulating manner, the outer member including an opening that is provided at at least one end portion and the space that communicates with the opening; and a composite material forming step of forming a composite material in which the outer member and the inner member are joined to each other by curing the resin of the inner member to join the outer member and the inner member to each other.
