Mold used to manufacture a gasket member includes a first mold, second mold, and plate-shaped substrate clamped between the first and second molds. The first mold includes circumferential groove that opens to a bottom surface of the first mold and forms a cavity, injection groove that opens to the bottom surface and connects to the cavity at first location of the circumferential groove, injection hole having a lower end opens into the injection groove and upper end extends to top surface of the first mold, exhaust groove that opens to the bottom surface and connect to the cavity at a second location of the circumferential groove, and exhaust hole having lower end connect into the exhaust groove and an upper end extends to the top surface of the first mold. The elastic material is injected and filled into the cavity to form the gasket member.

An apparatus or assembly for forming injection molded magnets in permanent magnet rotors or laminations for such rotors. The assembly includes a plurality of platens defining an axial boundary of a die cavity and a plurality of support shoes that are radially moveable between a closed position defining a radial boundary of the die cavity, and an open position creating a gap between the rotor core and the plurality of support shoes. The assembly has an injection system for filling at least one of the plurality of voids of the rotor core with a magnetic slurry, and a plurality of alignment magnets configured to magnetically align the magnetic slurry.

A reciprocating-rod seal (10) comprising a one-piece rigid support (20) and a one-piece elastomeric body (30) bonded to the rigid support (20). A notch (40) separates an ID fluidside portion (41) of the elastomeric body (30) from an OD fluidside portion (42) of the elastomeric body (30), and the ID fluidside portion (41) forms a sealing lip (43). A groove (50) separates an ID airside portion (51) of the elastomeric body (30) from an OD airside portion (52) of the elastomeric body (30), and the ID airside portion (51) forms a wiping lip (53). The sealing lip (43) prevents fluid escape during forward and return strokes of a reciprocating rod, and the wiping lip (53) removes dirt, dust, or other debris from the rod during return strokes. The seal (10) can serve as the primary seal for a mudpump pony rod and/or a mudpump plunger rod.

A method and assembly for forming a rotor include forming a rotor core having a plurality of voids and placing the formed rotor core into a die cavity. The method includes moving a plurality of support shoes to define an outer diameter of the die cavity, and injecting at least one of the plurality of voids with a magnetic slurry. At least one permanent magnet is formed from the magnetic slurry by applying pressure to the rotor core and the magnetic slurry within the die cavity and by applying a magnetic field to align the magnetic slurry. After forming the at least one permanent magnet within the rotor core, the plurality of support shoes are retracted and the rotor core removed with the at least one permanent magnet formed therein.

An injection mold and an optical lens produced from the injection mold are provided. The injection mold includes a disk-type mold base and a nozzle. A mold cavity chamber is defined by the disk-type mold base. The mold cavity chamber includes an optically effective central runner and an optically ineffective annular runner. Moreover, plural spoiler structures are formed in the optically ineffective annular runner. While a melt is injected from the nozzle to the mold cavity chamber, the plural spoiler structures provide the functions of disturbing the melt flow and decreasing the velocity of the melt in the optically ineffective annular runner. Consequently, before the optically ineffective annular runner is completely filled with the melt, the optically effective central runner is completely filled with the melt. Since no defect is formed in an optically effective zone, the yield of the optical lens is enhanced.

A compression collar is manufactured for use in reinforcing an interference fit between an end of a pipe and a fitting. A precursor form is injection molded using a cold-expansion material. The precursor form has a tubular body with an initially closed axial end and a bore that is initially blind formed in the other axial end. Material is removed from the initially closed axial end of the tubular body of the precursor form to form an opening in the initially closed axial end that connects to the bore thereby forming the compression collar. The opening has an inner periphery with a profile in axial cross section that is different than any profile in axial cross section of an inner periphery of the bore. The collar formed may lack knitlines and may include tabs formed during the removal step which help to position the collar on a pipe.

An electromagnetic coil, a mold, and an electromagnetic coil manufacturing method are provided. The electromagnetic coil includes an annular main body, and an inner peripheral wall of the annular main body comprises multiple claw poles arranged at intervals in a circumferential direction. The electromagnetic coil further includes an encapsulation layer, and the encapsulation layer is capable of encapsulating an upper annular wall, a lower annular wall, and an outer peripheral wall of the annular main body. The encapsulation layer is not disposed between the claw poles, and is formed by injection molding of a resin material. In the electromagnetic coil provided in the present invention, the encapsulation layer is not disposed between the claw poles of the inner peripheral wall of the annular main body, such that after moisture having entered the interior of the coil can be discharged therefrom within a short time.

A balloon is disclosed for expanding an orifice. The balloon comprises a hollow body having a head. The body is closed at a distal end and open at a proximal end. The head extends from the distal end. The balloon also comprises a hollow neck positioned between the open proximal end and the distal end of the body. In the balloon, a wall thickness of the neck is greater than a wall thickness of the head. In a variation, the balloon can be configured such that, when the balloon is inflated, the head expands in a radial direction greater than in the longitudinal direction and a diameter of the body remains approximately constant during inflation. Also disclosed is a system for expanding an orifice. The system includes such a balloon and an inflation device for inflating the balloon. Also disclosed is a kit comprising the system and a container. Further, disclosed is a mould and a method for forming the balloon.
