The invention relates to a mold (200) for producing a foam cladding (120) made of plastic on a planar component (100) or for producing a foamed plastic part (120), comprising a mixing head (300) for producing liquid plastic from at least two components, at least one first cavity (240) for receiving the plastic in order to form the foam cladding (120) or to produce the foamed plastic part (120), a sprue channel (210) for connecting the mixing head (300) to the at least one first cavity (240), and a further cavity (220), which is formed at the transition of the sprue channel (210) to the first cavity (240) and widens the sprue channel (210). For automated cutting of a tag-like sprue, which would otherwise adhere to the foam cladding, the invention provides that a sprue cutter (400) having at least one slide (410) is movably mounted on the mold (200), which slide can be moved by means of at least one actuating cylinder (450) in the direction of the sprue channel (210) toward the first cavity (240) and, in an end position of the movement of the slide, closes off the first cavity (240) from the sprue channel (210) and/or from the further cavity (220) by means of at least one edge (414) and/or contour (412).

The sheet member has a region in which a plurality of coherent pattern lines appear when viewed from a direction facing the pair of main surfaces, the plurality of coherent pattern lines being arranged at intervals in a direction in which one edge portion and another edge portion opposing the one edge portion oppose each other, and a pair in the plurality of coherent pattern lines adjacent to each other do not intersect.

Mold, system and method for manufacturing a molded part

A mold, system and method for manufacturing a part includes injection molding a substrate in a single injection mold and optionally trimming the panel substrate. The substrate can have a first configuration or a second, different configuration. Trimming of the substrate can occur when the substrate has the first configuration to define an aperture in the substrate.

Bearing cage and manufacturing method therefor

The resin injection gate is disposed at the pillar part. When the bearing cage is divided into first and second regions by an imaginary line connecting the resin injection gate and a weld to be formed at a position radially facing the resin injection gate, a resin reservoir that can store therein the melted resin is formed at the pillar part in only one of the regions. A circumferential distance between the resin reservoir and the weld is smaller than a circumferential distance between the resin reservoir and the resin injection gate. A cross-sectional area of a communicating part of the resin reservoir, which is configured to communicate with the pillar part, is equal to or less than a quarter of a cross-sectional area of the resin injection gate.

METHOD FOR PRODUCING AN INJECTION MOLDED PART, INJECTION MOLD AND FAN IMPELLER

A method produces an injection molded part. A plastic material is injected into a cavity for forming the injection molded part. The plastic material in a flow line region of the cavity, where the plastic material from two directions coincides during an injection molding process, is at least partially removed from the cavity via at least two overflow points and, in so doing, is locally swirled or mixed between the overflow points.

TUBING COUPLER MOLDINGS AND SYSTEMS, AND ASSOCIATED METHODS
20230191671 · 2023-06-22 · ·

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.
