A tubular molded body that can reduce restrictions on attachment to another member to be easily attached to another member. The tubular molded body 10 includes a tube main body 11 formed in a tubular shape and an attachment flange 100 formed in a flange shape to project from the tube main body 11. The attachment flange 100 includes a thin-walled hinge 130 and is rotatable by the hinge.

A balloon catheter includes an elongated, tubular shaft having a proximal end and a distal end, and a balloon positioned along the distal end of the shaft. A portion of a wall of the balloon partially comprises a coextruded radiopaque material. Related aspects and methods are also disclosed.

A honeycomb sandwich sheet or panel, based on thermoplastic polypropylene, includes a structure having two flat outer films, at the top and bottom, welded to at least two inner or central thermoformed blister films, repeated in a regular and continuous pattern, wherein the at least two inner thermoformed films are welded to each other.

The invention relates to a device and a method for semi-continuous blow moulding of fiber-reinforced, thermoplastic, endless, hollow-profile-shaped components with longitudinally constant or varying cross-sections, consisting of at least one consolidation tool, which, in its closed state, encloses a preform enclosing an elastically moldable pressure chamber.

In the method for the continuous production of a heat-insulated, corrugated line pipe (1) with at least one inner pipe (2), a corrugated outer jacket of the line pipe is first produced by means of an extruder (27) and a corrugator (28) and the inner pipe arranged in a foil tube together with a foam-forming starting material is guided into the corrugator, in which the outer jacket of the line pipe which has been corrugated before is filled with the heat-insulating foam. The device (10) provided for carrying out the method has a protective pipe (26) by means of which the inner pipe surrounded by the foil tube can be guided separately from the extrusion and corrugation of the outer jacket into the corrugator.

A device produces and fills containers, in which at least one hose of plasticized plastic material emerging from an extrusion head (2) can be extruded into an opened mold. A filling device (14) can be used to at least introduce the filling material into the relevant container by filling mandrels (12), which, at least during operation, extend through the extrusion head (2) along at least one row of passages (40). The extrusion head (2) has a cuboid shell (20, 22). The overall height (H) of the extrusion head (2), viewed in parallel to the orientation of the relevant filling mandrel (12), is smaller than the length (L) of the extrusion head (2), viewed along the pertinent row of passages (40).

The present invention provides a thin sheet with suppressed strain. The sheet according to the present invention has a thickness from 0.1 to 5 mm and is formed of a plastic that contains at least one resin selected from polyamide resins, polycarbonate resins, cellulose acrylate resins, and acrylic resins. A difference between a maximum value and a minimum value of retardation of the sheet is 3000 nm or less. The sheet according to the present invention can be obtained, for example, by subjecting a plastic containing at least one resin selected from polyamide resins, polycarbonate resins, cellulose acylate resins, and acrylic resins to extrusion molding to obtain a plastic in the form of a sheet, and subjecting the resulting plastic in the form of a sheet to vacuum forming, air-pressure forming, or vacuum air-pressure forming.

A manufacturing method of a structure by which a target member can be easily positioned with high accuracy. In a tilting step, at least one target member is positioned by tilting a positioning table and sliding the target member placed on the positioning table to bring the target member into contact with a locking portion.

An advanced siding panel that combines a traditional siding appearance with improved insulation, structural integrity, and improved thermal characteristics.

A polymeric article includes a body and encoded visual indicia formed on the body. The encoded visual indicia may be scanned to generate instructions. A method of providing the polymeric article includes applying polymeric materials to a mold to provide an article-blank web having formed therein an article preform of a desired shape with encoded visual indicia formed in the article preform.
