A method of manufacturing an optical obturator includes providing an injection mold including a mold cavity defining an outer surface of the optical obturator and a core pin centrally positioned within the mold cavity. The core pin defines an inner surface of the optical obturator. In particular, the core pin may be cantilevered to the injection mold. The method further includes injecting a first material between the core pin and the mold cavity to form the tubular shaft and injecting a second material between a distal portion of the core pin and a distal portion of the mold cavity to form the optical tip.

A conduit connector and method of construction thereof is provided. The conduit connector includes a body having a through passage extending between open opposite ends and a tubular male port section extending axially to an end face of one of the ends. The tubular male section has an outer surface configured for connection to a tubular conduit and an inner surface bounding at least a portion of the through passage. The end face has an outer annular first surface extending radially inwardly from the outer surface and an inner annular second surface extending radially inwardly from the annular first surface toward the inner surface. The annular second surface forms a counterbore that is recessed axially a first distance from the annular first surface, wherein an annular bead extends from one of the annular second surface or the inner surface, with the entirety of the annular bead remaining recessed below the annular first surface.

A method and apparatus for forming a part having a cavity with a complex contour is presented. The molding apparatus comprises a mold cavity and a molding insert. The mold cavity is formed by a first mold portion and a second mold portion. The molding insert is within the mold cavity, wherein the molding insert has a forming surface, and wherein the molding insert is configured to move in more than one direction relative to the first mold portion

Molding unit (1) for the forming of a container (2) provided with a hollow recess (3), comprising: a mold (5) provided with a lateral wall (6) defining a cavity (7) and provided with a pocket (9) that comes out into the cavity (7); a boxing device (11) comprising: an insert (12) mounted in translation in the pocket (9) relative to the lateral wall (6) and provided with at least one passage (81) opening out; an actuator (16) integral with the insert (12) and provided with a piston (17) mounted in a chamber (22) defined in the wall (6) of the mold (5), the piston (17) subdividing the chamber (22) into a rear half-chamber (22A) in communication with a primary fluid duct (46), and a front half-chamber (22B) in communication, on the one hand, with a secondary fluid duct (50) and, on the other hand, with the pocket (9).

A mold assembly (100) for making tubular articles. The mold assembly includes a core plate (210), core inserts (230) mounted to the core plate (210) by fasteners (B), a cavity plate (410) with holes (413) through its thickness and cavity inserts (420) mounted to the cavity plate (410). Each core insert (230) has a molding surface (234a) and an engagement taper (233) between the molding surface and its mounting surface (236). At least part of the engagement taper (233) is located closer to the mounting surface (236) than it is to the molding surface (234a) for inhibiting the core insert (230) from tipping when the engagement taper (233) is engaged to move or slide the core insert (230) along the core plate (210). The assembly (100) has an assembled configuration, in which the core plate (210) is mounted to the a cavity plate (410), such that each core insert (230) describes with a respective cavity insert (420) a hollow body and each cavity plate hole (413) is aligned with a respective core insert fastener (B) for allowing a tool to be inserted therethrough to access the core insert fastener (B).

Provided is a protection tube with latch in which a latch that is formed engageable with an attachment hole of a panel is molded integral with a protection tube that receives an electric wire, and a manufacturing apparatus of the protection tube with latch. The protection tube with latch includes a latch to be engaged with the attachment hole of the panel having the electric wire wired therein disposed on an outer peripheral face of the protection tube that is formed tubular and receives the electric wire.

A method for manufacturing a resin vehicle part provided with a panel body having a decorative surface on the front surface and a stepped reinforcing rib, which stands on the back surface of the panel body and the thickness of the base end of which is formed to be thinner than the thickness of the leading end. On the injection molding die thereof, a sliding piece for forming the stepped reinforcing rib is provided so as to be movable. During shrinkage movement of the stepped reinforcing rib in the height direction after molten resin has been filled in the injection molding die, the sliding piece is pressed by the leading end of the stepped reinforcing rib and moves towards the panel body.

A protection tube with latch in which a latch that is formed engageable with an attachment hole of a panel is molded integral with a protection tube that receives an electric wire, and a manufacturing apparatus of the protection tube with latch. The protection tube with latch includes a latch to be engaged with the attachment hole of the panel having the electric wire wired therein disposed on an outer peripheral face of the protection tube that is formed tubular and receives the electric wire.
