A quick connector coupling comprises a collar port having a passage and a collar, a connector to be coupled to the collar port and comprising a tube portion to be received in the passage, a flange on the tube portion, a sealing ring received in a groove on the tube portion, and a locking clip for engaging the collar and an engagement surface of the connector to lock the connector against axial movement. With the connector in a mounted state, the flange has extensions extending along the tube portion beyond the collar, the extensions carry a terminal ring with a surface facing the flange forming the engagement surface spaced from the collar, the clip arranged to lock the connector on the collar port against axial movement, and the groove is axially formed on the tube portion such that the groove is closer to the flange than the engagement surface.

A device for demolding parts includes a slider for housing a figure insert for the molding of a negative of the part to be molded. The slider is associated with a push rod, which can move the slider to an ejection position of a part to be molded. The device also includes a gas cylinder for driving the displacement of the push rod. The device eliminates an inclined guide and a safety wedge, saving a great deal of work and focusing all the machining only on a punch plate.

A gear box includes a gear box body, and a terminal which is integrated with the gear box body. The gear box body includes a storage portion which stores a gear, a motor insertion portion, recessed in an attachment surface of a motor, and a connector connection portion on the same side as the motor insertion portion with respect to a rotation center of the gear and is open in a direction different from the motor insertion portion. The terminal includes the connector terminal which is exposed to the inside of the connector connection portion, a motor feeding portion which is exposed to the inside of the motor insertion portion, a connecting portion which is in the gear box body and connects the connector terminal and the motor feeding portion, and a fixing tab extending from the connecting portion and exposed to the inside of the motor insertion portion.

An undercut processing mechanism is attached to and used in a molding die for forming a molded product having an undercut portion and allows the undercut portion, projecting in a direction intersecting a demolding direction of the molded product, to be demolded. The undercut processing mechanism includes: a holder attached to the molding die so as to be movable in a demolding direction of the molded product P; a sliding piece slidable relative to the holder and configured to form the undercut portion; and a retaining piece fixed to the molding die or formed so as to be integrated with the molding die, which retaining piece slidably retains the sliding piece. In demolding the molded product, the sliding piece moves in the direction in which the undercut portion can be demolded, by moving the holder in the demolding direction of the molded product.

A vehicle component, and a method and tool for forming the component are provided. First and second tools with first and second surfaces, respectively, are provided. The first tool is translated along a first axis towards the second tool such that the first and second surfaces cooperate to define a mold cavity configured to form an accessory mount feature with an aperture. The second surface is configured to form an integrated rib extending outwardly from an upper surface of the mount feature to a planar bearing surface surrounding the aperture with the planar bearing surface oriented at an acute angle relative to the upper surface. The first axis is substantially parallel to the upper surface.

A mold stack for a mold comprises a mold core configured for reception in a mold cavity plate with an outer molding surface. The mold core comprises an inner core with a first tapered guide surface and an outer core with a second tapered guide surface. The inner core is received through a passage in the outer core. A spacer slidably supports the outer core on the inner core. The outer core is movable relative to the inner core between a molding position in which the inner and outer cores define a mold cavity with the outer molding surface, and an open position in which the outer core is extended relative to the inner core. In the molding position, the first and second tapered guide surfaces engage one another to align the inner and outer cores.
