A foam twin-sheet formed air filled gasket is provided. The foam sheets need not be covered with one or more layers of air impermeable materials before, during or after the twin-sheet forming process. Methods for manufacturing the air filled gaskets are also disclosed.

A formation device melts a plastic material and places the melted plastic material into a mold. The mold has an upper case, a lower case and a cavity, and a blowing aperture is disposed at a conjunction area of the upper and lower cases and extending to the cavity. The formation device utilizes a blowing tube to connect to the blowing aperture to reach into the plastic material in the cavity. During a blow molding process, the formation device inflates the plastic material through the blowing tube such that the plastic material expands to conform with a shape of the cavity, and when the mold is opened, a hollow casing member is obtained. The casing member further comprises a framed base, and two opposite sides of the base respectively connected to a top board and a bottom board via a connecting lip.

A hollow container producing device for producing a hollow container using a pair of parison sheets is provided. The hollow container producing device includes a pair of molds; an intermediate frame to be clamped to the pair of molds; and a transport unit that carries the intermediate frame and a pair of parison sheets to a position between the pair of molds, with the pair of parison sheets being respectively held on opposite sides of the intermediate frame.

A skinned panel for stably molding a thin skin material and a molding method thereof. An extruding device is configured to extrude a pair of multilayered resin sheets, each of which has a lamination structure of an inner layer made of a foamed resin and an outer layer made of a non-foamed resin that is changed into a skin material of a sandwich panel as a skinned panel. The pair of the resin sheets is abutted to the circumferential part of the pair of the split molds for producing sealed spaces. The sealed spaces are sucked for pressing the pair of the resin sheets onto cavities of the pair of the split molds. Accordingly, the pair of the resin sheets is formed in a shape substantially identical to the outline of the sandwich panel.

A method of manufacturing a structure is provided in which a burr portion can be more reliably cut. In a burr portion shaping step, the burr portion is sucked to an engaging portion by a suction part to shape the burr portion along the engaging portion, and in a cutting step, ae movable portion is moved relative to first and second split molds with the burr portion being shaped along the engaging portion, thereby the burr portion is cut from a molded main body along a cutting line.

A resin panel according to an embodiment includes a core material, a reinforcing material, a skin material covering the core material and the reinforcing material, and a fastened member. A reinforcing material has a first plate provided on a front surface of the core material, a second plate provided on a back surface of the core material, and a connecting plate connecting the first plate and the second plate. The fastened member is attached to the skin material by a fastening member penetrating the skin material and the first plate or the second plate of the reinforcing material.

A foam twin-sheet formed air filled gasket is provided. The foam sheets need not be covered with one or more layers of air impermeable materials before, during or after the twin-sheet forming process. Methods for manufacturing the air filled gaskets are also disclosed.

A luggage room board includes the luggage room board main body made of resin and is configured to be opened and closed. At one of ends of a non-woven fabric, a concave portion is provided on a surface of the luggage room board main body to which the non-woven fabric is attached, and the end of the non-woven fabric is attached so as to enter the concave portion. The concave portion is formed such that a depth gradually increases toward the end of the non-woven fabric. The depth of the concave portion at the end of the non-woven fabric is approximately same as the thickness of the non-woven fabric or larger than the thickness of the non-woven fabric. The concave portion is provided at the end of the non-woven fabric on a side of the rotation center line.

A method for manufacturing a part for an aircraft seat includes positioning a heating frame around a stacked structure, locally heating an edge of the stacked structure using a heating frame, externally heating the entire stacked structure, positioning the stacked structure inside a thermoforming mould provided with cutting punches, closing the thermoforming mould and applying a vacuum to the interior of the thermoforming mould, to simultaneously perform, during the same step of shaping the first cover and the second cover, a step of heat sealing an edge of the first cover to an edge of the second cover, bonding the first cover and the second cover to the foam core, and cutting the stacked structure along the circumference thereof using cutting punches.

An article of luggage is provided for comprising a first layer of hard shell and a second layer of hard shell material with one or more ornamental substrate disposed between at least the first layer of hard shell material and at least the second layer of hard shell material. A section of hard shell material may be formed by pressing and/or heating at least the first layer of hard shell material, the second layer of hard shell material, and the ornamental substrate together.
