A plastic internally hollow body has a cavity for containing liquids, solids or gases, and includes a main body shaped and having an inner surface at least partially defining the cavity. The inner surface terminates in a shaped edge that delimits a coupling aperture to the cavity. The internally hollow body includes a closure body, having an outer sealing surface suitable at least partially engaging the inner surface of the main body. The closure body at least partially closes the cavity in correspondence of the coupling aperture. The main body is joined to the closure body at least partially along the shaped edge by a joining element over-moulded to the main body and the closure body and covering the over-moulding seat resulting between the main body and the closure body. A method for making the internally hollow body over-moulds the joining element by injection moulding with an over-moulding mould.

A portion of reduced diameter 7a is provided to the flow tab plastic portion 7 on the connecting plastic portion side.

A catheter having a distal tip comprising two sections of different hardness, and a method of making the same, is herein disclosed. The first section of the two sections is distal to the second section of the two sections and the second section is comprised of a material that is harder than the material of the first section. Additionally, the distal tip is bonded to a catheter shaft and the material of the catheter shaft is harder than the material of the first and second sections. The material of the catheter shaft, first section, and second section can comprise polyether block amide, with each section and the catheter shaft having different properties.

The invention is directed to an overmolded two-component friction element in a plastic pallet and to a method for forming the pallet. The friction element includes a rigid outer carrier member and an elastomeric material that is exposed at one or more ends. The friction element is first formed in an injection mold, and then is placed in a pallet mold. Resin is injected into the pallet mold around the sides of the friction element leaving the exposed elastomeric material form part of the pallet surface.

The present invention relates to an injection port for connecting with a container, such as a medical fluid container. The injection port includes a barrel, a septum, and a cap, which are sequentially formed via a three-shot injection molding process. The present invention further relates to an assembly that includes the injection port connected to a container. Further, the present invention relates to a method of making the injection port utilizing a three-shot injection molding process.

A manufacturing method of a liquid ejection head including manufacturing a flow path constituting member for supplying a liquid to an ejection module, the manufacturing a flow path constituting member including using a metal mold which is constituted of a fixed mold and a movable mold, the manufacturing a flow path constituting member including: a first step of molding a first member, a second member, and a third member independently at locations different from each other in the metal mold, the first member, the second member, and the third member constituting the flow path constituting member; a second step of joining the first member and the second member in a specific manner; and a third step of joining the second member and the third member in a specific manner.

A resin molding method includes a first molding step, a sliding step, a second molding step and a mold opening step. In the first molding step, first molded part supported in a fixed mold and a second molded part supported in a die slide mold are molded in different positions in a second direction. In the sliding step, the movable mold is removed in a first direction and the first molded part and the second molded part are aligned by the die slide mold is moved in the second direction. In the second molding step, the movable mold is clamped again with the fixed mold and resin is injected into engaged portions. Each of the first molded part and the second molded part includes at least one wall extending in the first direction, and in the second molding step, the first molded part and the second molded part are engaged with each other at sides of the walls extending in the first direction.

An integrated molded body in which a resin member (C) including discontinuous carbon fibers and a thermoplastic resin is interposed between a plate material (A) one side surface of which is a design surface, and a resin member (B), wherein the integrated molded body has a first joining part at which the resin member (B) is joined to the resin member (C) and a second joining part at which at least a partial region of an outer peripheral edge part of the plate material (A) is joined to the resin member (C).

A joint assembly comprising at least one extruded profile member and at least one molded member connected to the profile member by an injection molding process. The extruded profile member comprises at least one pre-processed structured surface area adapted to increase grip between the profile member and a molding tool during the molding process. A method for forming a joint assembly is also disclosed, comprising the steps of comprising: inserting an extruded profile member in a molding tool, the extruded profile member and/or the molding tool having a structured surface area to increase the friction between the molding tool and the extruded profile member; clamping the molding tool and bringing the structured surface in contact with the molding tool and/or the extruded profile member to hold the profile member in place, and injecting material into the molding tool to produce a molded member connected with the extruded profile member.
