The present invention provides a self-adhesive prepreg which is characterized by comprising: a base prepreg that is composed of reinforcing fibers and a thermosetting resin composition (I), some or all of which is impregnated into a reinforcing fiber layer that is formed of the reinforcing fibers; an adhesive layer that is composed of a nonwoven fabric which is laminated on at least one surface of the base prepreg so as to be integrated with the base prepreg and a thermosetting resin composition (II) which is laminated on the surface of the nonwoven fabric so as to be integrated with the nonwoven fabric.

Mold for producing a panel assembly comprising a panel and a gasket, which gasket is adhered to the panel, and extends along at least a portion of the periphery thereof, the mold comprising a first mold part and a second mold part that are formed such that the panel can been closed thereby forming a closed cavity the inner boundaries of which are formed by a first mold surface, a second mold surface and the periphery of the panel, and wherein the second mold part comprises a resilient lip extending along the periphery, the resilient lip being provided for being displaced by an applicator device to provide access to the closed cavity.

A housing for an electronic device is disclosed. The housing includes a first conductive component defining a first interface surface, a second conductive component defining a second interface surface facing the first interface surface, and a joint structure between the first and second interface surfaces. The joint structure includes a molded element forming a portion of an exterior surface of the housing, and a sealing member forming a watertight seal between the first and second conductive components. Methods of forming the electronic device housing are also disclosed.

A device for producing an edging of a flat extended panel has: a molding tool; a material dispenser which is movable in relation to the molding tool, for dispensing a material for the edging, wherein the molding tool has: a first mold body having a holding region for the panel; a second mold body having a holding region for the panel such that the panel is capable of being held by the first mold body and by the second mold body; a third mold body which with the first mold body shares a common contact region, wherein the first mold body, the second mold body, and the third mold body are configured such that they conjointly with the panel surround a space in which the edging is configurable; an access duct to the space, the former being configured between the second mold body and the third mold body.

A component having a flat reinforcing element of a first stiffness and a flat material of a second stiffness. The first stiffness is higher than the second stiffness. The flat reinforcing element has a first end on a first narrow side. The flat material, on a second narrow side thereof, has a second end that bifurcates into two strips. The two strips of the second end enclose the first end on both sides in a zone of enclosure.
