An optical lens assembly is produced by an injection-compression molding process. The optical lens assembly includes a lens body and an injection-molded structure. The lens body includes a first lens surface and a second lens surface opposed to the first lens surface. The lens body is divided into an optically effective zone and an optically ineffective zone. The injection-molded structure has at least one gate land in response to the injection-compression molding process. At least a portion of the optically ineffective zone of the lens body is covered by the injection-molded structure, and the injection-molded structure is assembled with and positioned by an external structure. Each of the first lens surface and the second lens surface is one of a multi-aperture lens surface, a lenticular lens surface, an aspheric lens surface, a flat lens surface and a freeform lens surface.

The invention relates to a mold assembly used in the production of plastic injection pet preforms and similar plastic products. The invention comprises the jaw (10) that forms the mouth of the PET preform on the injection mold and has the first conical jaw ring (70) on one side and the second conical jaw ring (80) on the other side, the cavity (20), which is locked to the side of the jaw (10) with the first conical jaw ring (70), by means of the cavity ring (50) connected to the upper surface and forming the outer wall of the PET preform, the locking ring (40) that is locked to the side of the jaw (10) with the second conical jaw ring (80) by means of the core ring (60) connected to its upper surface, the core (30) that is connected on the locking ring (40) and forms the inner wall of the PET preform.

A resin part includes a plate-shaped molded main body that is constituted of an injection-molded product. Of plate surfaces of the molded main body, a surface on an opposite side to a surface requiring surface accuracy constitutes a pressure-application surface to which pressure is applied by a movable insert. A parting line is formed on the pressure-application surface by the movable insert to satisfy the following relationship: (t/4)≤x≤(3t/2), where x is a distance from an end edge part of the molded main body to the parting line and t is a thickness of the molded main body.

A toothbrush comprised at least one unitary brush head having a base and at least one filament and extending therefrom and having a free end terminating with a tip, wherein the filament has a length of from 6.0 mm to 20.0 mm between the base and the free end, and wherein the unitary brush head is made from a plastic material that has a melt flow rate of not greater than about 30 g/10 min measured in accordance with ISO 1133.

An ultrasonic device comprising a fusion chamber (10) with an inlet bore (11) for a polymer in pellet, powder or tablet form, a plunger that modifies the volume of the fusion chamber, an outlet bore (12) that communicates with a mould (60), a sonotrode bore (13) through which a distal portion (21) of an ultrasonic head (20) is inserted into the fusion chamber, wherein the distal portion is separated from the rest of the ultrasonic head by a first nodal plane (PN1) in correspondence of a first surface (S1) in contact with a complementary surface of a ring seal (30) that closes the fusion chamber, the ultrasonic head including a second nodal plane (PN2) away from and parallel to the first nodal plane in correspondence of or adjacent to a second surface (S2) wherein an anchoring device (40) presses the ultrasonic head against the ring seal ensuring a tight closure.

In an injection/compression-molding process, an assemblage of fiber-bundle-based preforms are placed in a mold cavity of a mold tool. The mold is then fully closed, but not pressurized. An injection charge, which includes resin and optionally short fibers, is placed in a plunger cavity that is in fluidic communication with the mold cavity. The injection charge is liquefied and injected into the mold cavity, pressurizing it to a pressure suitable for compression molding. If not previously liquefied, the resin in fiber-bundle-based preform is liquefied and, under the applied pressure, the resins and fibers are consolidated and then cooled to form a part.

A method for producing components or profiles from at least one solidifiable plastic compound in an injection moulding facility, said method comprising stationary mould components and mould components which are movable with respect thereto. The method includes injection of solidifiable plastic compound into a channel formed in the movable mould components and, from there, via connections either in portions into one or more mould cavities. The channel is enclosed by at least one stationary, temperature-controlled mould component. A continuous channel compound strand is formed with attachment compound strands, which is transported away from the injection point with increasing cooling and solidification and increasing length, together with the filled mould cavities and mould cavity portions. The channel compound strand, together with the connection mass strands, after its solidification and after opening the mould cavity or the mould cavities is separated from the component(s), and the component or the components is/are ejected.

Some embodiments relate to a method for the direct soling of a multilayered shoe sole. The method can provide two distinct sets of mold frames for a first and a second shoe sole layer and a distinct order for the soling of the layers. In contrast to art traditional approaches, a first layer (e.g. a midsole) is first soled to an upper in a first mold frame and subsequently a second layer (e.g. an outer sole) is soled onto said first layer in a second mold frame. The method can allows for an increased design flexibility and the inclusion of additional functional or aesthetic features, such as air pockets, undercuts, toe caps or running sole tips previously not possible with direct soling processes. Some embodiments relate to an injection molding system equipped and configured for carrying out the method.
