A method for overmolding at least one line (40) comprises the steps: receiving the at least one line (40) in an opening (14) of a sealing element (10), wherein the opening (34) of the sealing element (10) is substantially complementary in shape to a peripheral geometry of the at least one line (40); mounting the sealing element (10) on a mold (30); overmolding the at least one line (40) received in the sealing element in a region (42) that is adjacent to the sealing element (10) and delimited by the sealing element (10); and removing from the mold (30) the sealing element (10) and the at least one line (40) received therein and overmolded in a region.

A device for deterring avian pests includes first and second spikes, each having a terminal retention feature held within an injection molded base. The spikes are preferably arranged in a radial fashion, extending outward from the molded base.

Each of a plurality of terminals has a first portion and a second portion being a connection target for a semiconductor element. A manufacturing method of a housing includes a first step arranging, for a lower mold provided with a plurality of holes each of which is a target into which the first portion is inserted, a nest having a third portion covering at least one of the holes, a second step arranging, for the lower mold with the nest being arranged therein, the plurality of terminals by inserting the first portion into the hole not covered by the third portion, a third step arranging an upper mold on the lower mold with the nest and the plurality of terminals being arranged therein, and a fourth step, which is executed after the third step, obtaining the housing by performing resin molding using the lower mold and the upper mold.

A toothed shaft can be installed in a hollow shaft that has an internal toothing such that the toothed shaft is coupled in a positively locking fashion so as to be telescopic in a direction of a longitudinal axis. The toothed shaft may include a toothing region with teeth on an outer circumference and extending in an axial direction. In the toothing region a shaft core may be overmolded by way of an injection molding process with a sliding coating comprised of thermoplastic material. The sliding coating may have at least three impressions, with each of the at least three impressions featuring an aperture that extends through the sliding coating to a surface of the shaft core.

The connector includes a terminal and a resin housing that houses and retains the terminal. One or a plurality of grooves extend in a part of a region of a surface of the terminal. An inclination surface is formed near an opening of the groove. The groove is formed to have a part with a minimum width parallel to the surface of the terminal and a part with a maximum width parallel to the surface of the terminal. An angle formed by the inclination surface with respect to the surface of the terminal is between 100 degrees and 150 degrees. Moreover, a ratio of the minimum width of the groove with respect to the maximum width of the groove is equal to or greater than 0.58 and less than 1.0. The terminal is embedded and fixed in the resin forming the housing.

A method for producing a multi-core cable includes arranging first and second contact elements in a contact carrier having first and second longitudinal channels connecting a contacting side to a cable side, and first and second through-openings respectively crossing the first and second longitudinal channels, and a second through-opening crossing the second longitudinal channel. The first and second longitudinal channels and the first and second through-openings are sealed in a fluid-tight manner by inserting two first sealing pieces into the first through-opening and two second sealing pieces into the second through-opening. In an injection-molding method, a connecting piece is formed connecting the contact carrier to the outer sheath of the cable by overmolding at least a rear section of the contact carrier comprising the first and second through-openings and a section of the cable protruding on the cable side.

A molding method of a waterproof member is provided. The waterproof member is molded by molds and is for a coated electric wire. The molds include mold division surfaces including molding portions and electric wire mold clamping portions. The electric wire mold clamping portions are to sandwich the coated electric wire at sides of the molding portions. One of the electric wire mold clamping portions includes a convex portion and a side wall erected on an end of the convex portion. The other of the electric wire mold clamping portions includes a concave portion. One of the molding portions includes a side wall entering groove into which the side wall enters. The method includes molding the waterproof member accommodated in the concave portion with the waterproof member being pressed by the convex portion toward a direction in which one of the mold is attached to the other.

A catheter has extruded length of tubing and an injection molded tip that facilitates insertion of the catheter into the body. The catheter is fabricated by the steps of providing the tubing, for example, by extruding the tubing from a thermoplastic resin cutting the tubing to the desired length, inserting a plug into the tubing, inserting one end of the tubing into an injection mold cavity, creating and forming a tip in an injection molding step, and demolding the tubing with the formed tip.

A hand tool comprising a head portion, a shaft, and a grip component is provided. The grip component and the shaft form a handle of the hand tool. The grip component is a reverse-molded component formed by: forming the external portion of the grip component by molding a first thermoplastic elastomer (TPE) material or thermoplastic urethane (TPU) material into a shell that surrounds a first cavity; after forming the external portion; placing the shaft into the first cavity; and, after the external portion is formed and the shaft is placed into the first cavity, forming the inner portion of the grip component by injecting a second TPE material or TPU material into the first cavity and onto the shaft. The first TPE or TPU material has a first level of hardness, and the second TPE or TPU material has a second level of hardness lower than the first level.

Disclosed is an end welding mold for providing end welding in all moving or fixed glass profiles of vehicles via injection method, having at least one mold core providing geometric shaping of the paste which is transferred by a hot runner system or a cold runner system, which is changeable depending on different end welding references. It could also be applied to dynamic sealings ends (eg. door seals) on cars if they have an end moulding.
