In one method, a piece of nonwoven PET or PP fabric is formed into a tote bag using a bag forming device. Seams of the tote bag are ultrasonically welded using an ultrasonic bag welding device. The ultrasonic bag welding device includes at least one sonotrode. In another method, BOPP film is received and a full-color graphic is printed on the BOPP film for each tote bag using a printer. The printed BOPP film is received from the printer and nonwoven PP or PET fabric is received from a roll of nonwoven PP or PET fabric using a laminator. The printed BOPP film is laminated to the nonwoven PP or PET fabric. The printed BOPP film laminated to nonwoven PP or PET fabric is received from the laminator and a finished version of each tote bag is produced using an ultrasonic bag welding device.

A blow moulding machine for blow moulding a container having an integrally formed handle; said container blow moulded from a previously injection moulded preform; said preform comprising a body portion and said integrally formed handle; said machine including a preform loading station at which said preform is oriented by a preform orienting apparatus.

A method of manufacturing a paint brush head comprising a bundle of bristles comprising synthetic bristles and a ferrule, a paint brush head manufactured according to the method and a paint brush comprising a paint brush head, The method comprising gathering a number of bristles comprising synthetic bristles into a bundle of bristles such that the bristles are tangent to each other along their length, aligning the bristles of the bundle of bristles at a first end of the bristles obtaining a flush end surface of the bundle of bristles, arranging the first end of the bristles in the ferrule, applying a thermoplastic adhesive in the ferrule at the flush end surface, fusing the first ends of the bristles at the flush end surface together by heat into a jointed bundle of bristles, and fusing the thermoplastic adhesive in the ferrule by means of the laser to connect the thermoplastic adhesive to the jointed bundle of bristles and the ferrule.

A handle for a kitchen object is provided, including a part for attachment or connection to an object made of phenol resin, an intermediate part which winds around and partially incorporates the part for attachment or connection, and an external part or skin for covering or coating the intermediate part.

Disclosed are various embodiments of holders configured to couple to moldable hand grips for firearms and at least partially submerge the hand grips in heated water baths. According to various embodiments, a holder can include a non-moldable body that is configured to couple to a moldable hand grip. The holder can further include a non-moldable user handle extending from the body.

A hand tool comprising a head portion, a shaft, and a grip component is provided. The grip component and the shaft form a handle of the hand tool. The grip component is a reverse-molded component formed by: forming the external portion of the grip component by molding a first thermoplastic elastomer (TPE) material or thermoplastic urethane (TPU) material into a shell that surrounds a first cavity; after forming the external portion; placing the shaft into the first cavity; and, after the external portion is formed and the shaft is placed into the first cavity, forming the inner portion of the grip component by injecting a second TPE material or TPU material into the first cavity and onto the shaft. The first TPE or TPU material has a first level of hardness, and the second TPE or TPU material has a second level of hardness lower than the first level.

This disclosure details two toned door handles for vehicle doors. An exemplary two toned door handle may include a non-metallized portion and a metallized portion. The metallized portion may include a metallic layer that is transparent to signals sent and received by an antenna module packaged inside the two toned door handle. Exemplary methods for cost-effectively manufacturing the two toned door handle are also disclosed.

A method of making a container via a simultaneous filling and forming of the container with a liquid product is disclosed. The method comprises the steps of extruding a parison (12, 2), capturing a portion of the parison (12, 2) within a mold (15), and inflating the captured portion of the parison (12, 2) against the mold (15). The captured portion of the parison (12, 2) is inflated against the mold (15) by introducing the liquid product into an interior of the captured portion of the parison (12, 2), wherein the liquid product forms an end product to be sealed within the resultant container.
