The present disclosure relates to a method for producing a container for washing and/or cleaning agents from a water-soluble material and to a container that is obtained in accordance with the method as contemplated herein.

A molded chair assembly includes a molded chair shell and a plurality of legs coupled to the molded chair shell. The molded chair shell further includes a plurality of individual and separate integrated hollow support members extending along the molded chair shell and providing the same with increased durability and stability, while maintaining flexibility. The integrated hollow support members may be formed in a gas assist injection molding process conducted in association with an injection molding process to form the molded chair shell.

A molding method for a synthetic resin molding that includes a molding body, a bent portion, and a flange. The bent portion and the flange are continuous in a longitudinal direction of the side edge. The flange includes a wide portion and a narrow portion. The molding method for the synthetic resin molding includes arranging a gate at a position corresponding to an end of one side of the flange in a longitudinal direction, setting a relationship S1≦S2, where S1 is a cross-sectional area of the wide portion of the flange, and S2 is a cross-sectional area of the narrow portion of the flange adjacent to and downstream from the wide portion in a flow of molten resin, and performing injection molding using a colored resin material containing a luster agent kneaded in the material.

A main body portion is disposed at a regular position by inserting a protrusion into an engaging portion formed in a leg portion of the main body portion in accordance with a forward movement of a sliding mold including the protrusion. Then, an injection molding mold is completely closed to cause at least a part of a mold surface of the sliding mold to come into contact with the main body portion.

A roof rail for a vehicle is provided that is made of only one piece and is solid across its length. The roof rail may be made using a co-injection molding process, a two-shot injection molding process or an extrusion molding process.

An additive injection system for use in injection molding machines to inject additive materials, such as fluids or powders, downstream of a nozzle of the injection molding machine. The additive injection unit has an additive tank to store or contain additive material and additive injectors that inject an additive material into an injection molding machine. A pump pumps the additive material from the tank through a common manifold connected to the additive injectors to be injected into the injection molding machine. A controller controls operation of the additive injection device and one or more sensors coupled to the additive injection device can provide feedback to the controller.

A method of forming a fin configured for use with a water sports board. The method includes providing a mold having a mold cavity and first and second insert pre-preg sheets each including structural strands respectively bonded by first and second resin materials. The method further includes placing the insert pre-preg sheets within the mold cavity. The method further includes injecting a third resin material under pressure into the mold cavity between the first insert pre-preg sheet and the second insert pre-preg sheet to urge the first insert pre-preg sheet and the second insert pre-preg sheet away from each other and towards respective ones of the pair of mold cavity faces, and dispose the third resin material between the first insert pre-preg sheet and the second insert pre-preg sheet to space at least a portion of the first insert pre-preg sheet from the second insert pre-preg sheet.

A controller for an injection molding system is in communication with a melt flow control unit, a gas assist control unit, and a gas counter pressure control unit. The controller can effect real-time adjustments to gas assist pressure and/or gas counter pressure as a function of melt pressure or flow front position.

A container having an annular sidewall with upper and lower annular peripheral edges and a lattice structure of elongate ribs interconnecting the upper and lower annular peripheral edges, wherein the lattice structure is an open framework defining a plurality of sidewall openings, and a base having an annular peripheral edge which is integral with the lower annular peripheral edge of the sidewall, the annular peripheral edge of the base surrounding a base wall structure which is integral therewith, the base wall structure having at least one injection moulding sprue at a central region of the base wall structure, wherein the at least one injection moulding sprue is connected to the upper annular peripheral edge of the annular sidewall by the base wall structure, the annular peripheral edge of the base, the lower annular peripheral edge of the sidewall and the lattice structure of the sidewall, wherein the sidewall and the base are composed of a thermoplastic polymer and define a central concavity for packaging a product, and wherein the container further has a flexible sheet which is bonded to the lattice structure to cover the sidewall openings and form a sealed sidewall surface of the container.

An injection molding machine for foam molding includes a heating cylinder having a gas injection port, a screw which is drivable in the heating cylinder, a gas supply device configured to supply a gas to the gas injection port, the gas supply device including a valve mechanism in a gas flow path, and a control device. The control device is configured to control the valve mechanism to close the valve mechanism at least once in a molding cycle, and keep the valve mechanism open at least in a measuring step.
