In a semiconductor device, a first skirt portion molded from a first mold resin and a second skirt portion molded from a second mold resin are provided on a heat dissipating surface of a lead frame. Also, a thinly-molded portion is molded integrally with the second skirt portion from the second mold resin. According to this kind of configuration, adhesion between the thinly-molded portion and lead frame is high, and the semiconductor device with excellent heat dissipation and insulation is obtained.

An example lid assembly can include a lid and a slider. The lid can include a wall defining a recess. The slider can be configured to slide in the recess and can be configured to move between a closed position where the slider covers the opening to aid in preventing spilling of contents of the container and an opened position where the slider uncovers the opening such that the contents of the container can be consumed. The slider can be configured to be removable from the lid and can be replaced back on the lid. Additionally, the slider can be configured to lock into place on the recess in both the closed position and the opened position.

An example antenna device may includes a base member, an antenna that is attached to the base member, and a cover member that is attached to surround at least a part of the base member and at least a part of the antenna. A first part of the base member that is attached to the cover member has a melting temperature equal to or lower than that of the cover member. A second part of the base member to which the antenna is attached has a higher melting temperature than the cover member.

A process for producing molded products having portions formed with two separate materials is provided. The process involves forming a first component over a structural core in a first step, and forming a second component that is secured to the first component and the core in a second step. The second component can be formed directly over the first component or can be secured thereto after formation. The first and second components can additionally be formed with indicia thereon, or with recesses within which inserts containing the desired indicia can be positioned. Additionally, the first component can be formed with a ridge disposed on a projection formed on the first component that effectively seals off a portion of the first component when the second component is formed around the core and the first component to ensure the portion of the first component surrounded by the ridge remains visible after formation of the second component.

Injection molding machine comprising at least one first and one second injection unit having a chamber for injecting a plasticized molding material and a piston for advancing a predetermined amount of plasticized molding material along a first axis from the chamber into a cavity of a mold, the machine including a form tool comprised of at least a first tool portion and a second tool portion, a tool cavity being at least partially disposed in the first tool portion.

A lacrosse head pocket includes a plug unit having first and second plugs disposed on a cross lace. The plugs are overmolded by first and/or second runners constructed from a polymeric material so that the plugs are joined with the first and/or second runners. The cross lace extends outwardly from the plug and the overmolded first and/or second runners. Some plug units can have cross laces that cross one another, while other plug units might not include cross laces that cross one another. A method is also provided including: forming a first plug on a first cross lace, placing the first plug in a mold, overmolding a first runner over at least a portion of the plug so the plug and first runner are joined, and optionally overmolding a second plug joined with the cross lace with a second runner or the same first runner.

The invention relates to a process for the production of multishell composite-material components, comprising the following steps: a) insertion of at least one first component (1) into an injection mold and optionally subjecting the first component (1) to a forming process, b) injection of at least one fixing element (4) onto at least one side (5) of the first component (1), c) insertion of at least one second component (2) into the injection mold and optionally subjecting the second component (2) to a forming process, d) bonding of the first component (1) to the second component (2) by way of the side (5) which has the fixing element (4), where a matrix material (6) is injected through the second component (2) onto and/or into the fixing element (4).

The present invention is intended to provide a manufacturing method of an insert molded article that makes it possible to manufacture efficiently the insert molded article including a metallic insert, an inside member made of a synthetic resin and covering a portion of the insert, and an outside member made of a synthetic resin different from the material of the inside member and covering a portion of the inside member using general molding machines, not a dedicated two-color molding machine.

General molding machines are used to manufacture the insert molded article formed by injection molding of a resin part in twice. An insert core 7 is used in common in primary molding using a primary molding die C1 and in a secondary molding using a secondary molding die. A round shaft 7C of the insert core 7 is fitted into an internal hole 2C of an insert 2 to form a coupled body 10 in which the insert 2 and the insert core 7 are coupled together. The coupled body 10 is used in common at the primary molding step and the secondary molding step.

A multi-camera vision system for a vehicle includes a plurality of video cameras having respective fields of view external of the vehicle. Captured image data is provided to and processed at a central data processor in order to detect objects that are within the field of view of at least some of the video cameras. The vehicle is equipped with a sensor system having at least one non-visual sensor that senses sensor data in a region external of the vehicle. The sensed sensor data is provided to the central data processor. A potential hazard present exterior the vehicle is determined to exist via processing at the central data processor of at least one of received image data and received sensor data.

By a simple configuration, contact members can be well retained with a housing in a mutually opposed state, and productivity can be improved. When the contact members in the mutually opposed state are to be attached to the housing, a contact retainer prepared by molding in advance is used by disposing the contact retainer in part of the contact opposed region. As a result, the contact members are stably retained in the mutually opposed state even in injection molding molds. Even in a case in which the contact members normally cannot be retained in the mutually opposed state in the injection molding molds, the housing and the contact members can be integrally molded by well retaining the contact members in the mutually opposed state by using the contact retainer and a contact retainer auxiliary and executing an injection molding process.
