A tubing system with a coupler join positioned between and joining tubing segments. The coupler join is formed to reduce dead legs and hold up volumes within, and/or to reduce materials used to form, and/or to simplify the manufacturing process of the tubing system. The coupler join may be sized, shaped, configured, and/or dimensioned to join tubing segments, such as pre-formed tubing segments, in a streamlined configuration, such as to substantially correspond with the outer and inner diameters of the tubing segments. The tubing system and coupler join may be formed with a mold configured to form a coupler join securely coupling spaced apart ends of tubing segments to be joined together in a configuration which reduces dead legs and hold up volumes within the resulting tubing system.

A method for manufacturing a lower housing of a battery pack having an embedded cooling pipe comprises the steps of: preparing a cooling pipe, which protrudes to the outside of the lower housing so as to be insert-connected to an external quick connector, includes a locking protrusion having a first outer diameter at a quick connector insertion part to be connected to the quick connector, and a second outer diameter for enabling the protrusion to be fixed to the quick connector in the inward direction in a first length at the end of the quick connector insertion part, and has a joint part which has a predetermined length and a third outer diameter corresponding to the second outer diameter in the inward direction in a second length longer than the first length at the end of the quick connector insertion part, and which is to be disposed over a cooling pipe inlet of the lower housing; preparing a slider including one or more pipe insertion parts having inner diameters corresponding to the third outer diameter of the joint part; inserting the quick connector insertion parts of the cooling pipes into the pipe insertion parts of the slider; coupling a lower housing mold to the cooling pipe; forming the lower housing by using the lower housing mold; and removing the slider and the lower housing mold.

A die for casting junctions of a coating of a pipeline is configured to be coupled to the pipeline to form an annular shaped closed compartment about a tubular joint portion comprising a tubular wall, which extends about a designated axis; a plurality of centering devices configured to align the axis of the tubular wall with a longitudinal axis of the pipeline; two annular walls arranged respectively at the opposite ends of the tubular wall; and two pluralities of vent openings arranged along the tubular wall respectively at each of the annular walls; and at least one feeding port configured to supply polymer material into the closed compartment.

A process for producing a plastic-metal composite component composed of at least one hollow profile and at least one application of plastic to be applied to the outside by means of injection molding or compression.

An insert molding apparatus includes a forming die in which a first part is arranged, and that molds resin such that a portion of the first part is exposed; and a first mounting part that is arranged at a portion where the first part is exposed, and that has a passage that passes through a space in the forming die into which the molten resin is supplied and a portion where the first part is arranged.
