An insert of a die for molding a speaker grille includes a forming member. The forming member defines a forming surface, from which a plurality of pins extend for forming apertures in a speaker grille. The forming surface defines a plurality of apertures disposed at spaced locations between the pins. The apertures are interconnected with a plurality vent channels communicating the apertures with the vent channels for venting air disposed in a die when melted polymer used to form the speaker grill is injected into the die. The forming member and the vent channels are formed as a monolithic construction.

There is shown and described a shoeing for horses, in particular for racehorses being used in competition, constructed from a core made of fiber-reinforced plastic material which is surrounded by a functional layer made of plastic.

According to the invention it is provided that the core is formed substantially from a fiber-reinforced thermoplastic polymer material (i.e. a fiber-reinforced thermoplastic) and the functional layer is formed substantially from a thermoplastic polycarbonate material or a fiber-reinforced thermoplastic polycarbonate material (i.e. a thermoplastic or a fiber-reinforced thermoplastic).

Furthermore there is shown and described a thermoplastic injection molding method for producing the shoeing.

A filter unit connecting a gate connection part to an outer cylinder includes a plurality of longitudinal ribs formed at regular intervals orthogonally to an X axis and parallel to a Y axis when a virtual plane orthogonal to a central axis of the gate connection part is assumed to be an X-Y plane. A plurality of transverse ribs is formed at regular intervals orthogonally to the longitudinal ribs and parallel to the X axis, and a plurality of rectangular openings is formed between the longitudinal ribs and the transverse ribs. By injecting molten resin into a cavity from a gate opened toward a cavity portion forming the gate connection part, the gate connection part, the outer cylinder, and the filter unit are formed integrally, the rib widths of the longitudinal ribs and the transverse ribs are made constant, and the shapes of the plurality of openings are made identical.
