A fire protection system can include one or more pipes coupled with a fluid source, a pipe fitting coupled with the one or more pipes downstream of the fluid source, and at least one sprinkler coupled with the one or more pipes and the pipe fitting. The pipe fitting can include a wall defining an opening, the wall having an outer diameter, a first wall thickness at the opening, and a second wall thickness inward from the opening, the second wall thickness greater than the first wall thickness. The at least one sprinkler can be coupled with the one or more pipes and the pipe fitting to receive fluid from the fluid source through the one or more pipes and the pipe fitting.

A resin molded member for a vehicle lamp includes a first resin molded part, a second resin molded part, a bent resin molded part bent and molded to have a groove section between the first resin molded part and the second resin molded part, and a rib wall that is disposed inside the groove section and that is configured to connect between a first inclined wall and a second inclined wall which form the groove section of the bent resin molded part, wherein the rib wall is formed at a position overlapping with a gate mark which is formed on at least one of the first inclined wall and the second inclined wall through injection molding.

A resin tank and a method for manufacturing a resin tank in which positional deviation and deformation of an inserted member is prevented. In a resin tank formed through resin injection molding, a gradually changing thickness portion in which a thickness of a resin layer gradually changes from one side to the other side with respect to a surface of an insert plate for attachment of an auxiliary component is formed in the resin layer at a region into which the insert plate is inserted.

A method of manufacturing a support member, which includes a tubular-shaped tubular part and a coupling part coupling one portion and another portion of an inner circumferential surface of the tubular part to support a ventilation membrane, includes filling a fixed mold and a movable mold with a thermoplastic material or a thermosetting material, wherein the thermoplastic material or the thermosetting material is injected from a gate in the coupling part to be charged from the coupling part toward the cylindrical part.

Golf ball methods and molds for quickly and efficiently eliminating air/gas from within a mold while better centering a subassembly in the mold during golf ball manufacture and the improved golf balls resulting therefrom.

A cover body includes: a multi-color molded body including a first resin portion having a gate mark on an outer surface thereof, and a second resin portion having a color different from a color of the first resin portion and adhering to the outer surface of the first resin portion to cover the gate mark. An outer surface of the second resin portion includes a stepped portion that overlaps with the gate mark.

The present invention relates to an FPC connector housing, more particular to a DDRS connector housing. The invention also relates to a method for producing the connector housing as well as to a cavity mold suitable for the production of the connector housing. The cavity mold comprises a double gating system with centrally positioned injection gates. The connector housing can be used in a connector for mounting on a flexible printed circuit (FPC) assembled in various kinds of electrical and/or electronic devices.

The invention relates to an electrochemical system unit comprising a plurality of electrochemical cells that are arranged in layers side by side, each cell comprising an anode plate, a cathode plate and a sealing element, wherein the sealing element is designed to seal a space between the anode and cathode plate. Said system also comprises at least two electrochemical cells of the electrochemical system unit having different manufacturing types of the sealing elements.

An injection mold for producing a sprinkler head part and related injection molding methods are described. The sprinkler head part includes a first, second, third and fourth mold portions. The first and second mold portions include first and second shaping elements structured to cooperatively form a body including a substantially cylindrical portion and a substantially planar portion, and two frame arms extending from the substantially planar portion of the body. The third mold portion includes a shaping element structured to form an orifice in the body of the sprinkler head. The fourth mold portion includes a shaping element structured to form a cross member connecting the two frame arms. The injection methods include injecting a composite material in molten form into the mold to form the molded sprinkler head part. The composite material includes thermoplastic polymeric resin and a plurality of reinforcing fibers dispersed in the resin.

A biochip for the integration of all steps in a complex process from the insertion of a sample to the generation of a result, performed without operator intervention includes microfluidic and macrofluidic features that are acted on by instrument subsystems in a series of scripted processing steps. Methods for fabricating these complex biochips of high feature density by injection molding are also provided.
