A high strength composite piano hinge having an integral structure and of particular utility in aircraft, formed of two similar half portions each comprising a flange and an integrally formed loop, the integral flange and loop comprised of composite tape, fabric or filament, formed of fiber reinforced heat curable resin such as graphite fibers impregnated with epoxy resin. The loop can be formed in one embodiment by wrapping the tape or fabric around a pin, with the flanges of the hinge secured together, as by curing the composite. Stitching can be provided across the flanges adjacent to the loop, to reinforce the loop, and prevent peeling of the composite laminates or plies. The thickness of the flanges can be equal to or smaller than the outer diameter of the loop. Additional composite material or laminates can be co-cured to the flanges. After final curing of the composite material of the piano hinge, the loop is cut out at spaced intervals along the axis thereof, to provide knuckles and form one-half of the piano hinge. A pair of such hinge half portions are juxtaposed and aligned to provide the completed piano hinge, with a pin passed through the aligned knuckles. |

An open-ended container with unitary external wire bail support posts and tooling for its manufacture in which each support post incorporates a pair of partially overlapping wall segments differently spaced from the sidewall of the container body, the more distant segment being further from the sidewall than the nearer by the thickness of the nearer. In a preferred embodiment, the more distant segment is provided with a slot extending from the end of the wall segment nearest the open end of the container body toward the opposite end of the wall segment, and having a bottom surface defined in part by a portion of the closer wall segment. The closer wall segment is provided with an oppositely directed slot arranged to in part overlap a portion of the first slot. The overlap of the two slots form an aperture dimensioned to accept the bail end. In this embodiment, the supporting structure holding the pair of wall segments apart from the sidewall is concave opening away from the open end of the container. |

In this embodiment, the supporting structure holding the pair of wall segments apart from the sidewall is concave opening away from the open end of the container, permitting access to the interior of the support post by an extension of the mold's cavity, while the exterior surfaces of the post are formed by an extension of the core of the mold. |

A mold and method for injection molding a plastic strip having living hinges. The method includes providing a mold as described herein, injecting liquid plastic into the mold to only partially fill the cavity therein, moving the push bar within its channel through a space extending at least one-half the distance across the cavity in the direction of the projecting rib forcing the plastic to flow in the opposite direction and to completely fill the remaining portion of the cavity, and sealing the push bar relative to the channel by means of guide brackets to exclude the flow of plastic behind the push bar during the moving step. The moving step further includes the forming of mutually opposed and aligned grooves in the plastic defining a portion of reduced diameter having opposing and continuous arcuate surfaces, the reduced diameter portion being commonly called a living hinge. The product produced by the mold is in the form of a flat strip having a plurality of living hinges. The panels may be folded into a variety of final configurations with decorative leaves attached to the outwardly-facing exterior surface of the panels. Light may be shown through the panels in those areas not covered by the decorative leaves. One embodiment of the final configured panels is in the form of a light fixture having the configuration of a lamp shade or a box enclosing the lamp. |

A plastics article which incorporates an integral web of reduced thickness is compressed at the desired location of the web whilst the material of the article is still in a mouldable condition during manufacture in an injection mould. The injection mould incorporates a displaceable blade, plate or block which is retracted from the mould cavity during injection of the plastics material and is thereafter projected into the mould cavity to form the web.

INJECTION MOLDED SOLID SKINNED FOAM CORE SANDWICH STRUCTURES ARE MADE USING AN ENLARGEABLE MOLD. DURING THE MOLDING OPERATION, THIN, NON-FOAMED PORTIONS, SUCH AS HINGES, OR AREAS WHICH CAN SUBSEQUENTLY BE REMOVED TO PROVIDE ORIFICES IN THE MOLDING, ARE MADE AFTER THE MOLD CAVITY HAS BEEN FILLED WITH THE FOAMABLE COMPOSITION BY EFFECTING RELATIVE MOVEMENT BETWEEN A TOOL DEFINING THE NON-FOAMED PORTION AND ONE OF THE OPPOSED SURFACES OF THE MOLD.

An athletic mat is made up of uniform plastic foam slabs that are coated with plastic on each face and covered with adhesive along their edges. A mat of the desired shape and color is then assembled by abutting adhesive coated edges of selected slabs to bond together the foam; and the plastic coatings on each face of the bonded slabs are heated, and a heated plastic tape is pressed against the heated coatings to form a fused union between the tape and the coatings on each face of the slabs. The top and bottom coatings along the peripheral edges of the mat are heated, and a heated edge tape is formed into a channel shape and pressed over the peripheral edges and against the heated plastic coatings to form a fused union between the edge tape and the plastic coatings.

1,072,185. Seaming non-metallic sheet material. KALLE A.G. Oct. 7, 1964 [April 1, 1964], No. 40922/64. Heading B5K. [Also in Division B8] Juxtaposed flattened marginal zones of body and lid portions of thermoplastic containers are joined for subsequent ready separation and reclosing, by being heated and then curled together to form inter-engaged beads. Two opposed rims may be so joined or a single rim 9 of two hinged members, Fig. 12. Containers fed forward by a conveyer 2 have their margins or rims on one or both sides fed into a slot in a heating element 5a followed by the initial stage of the curling device 5b, the slot 14 of which gradually reduces as the bore 12 moves towards the container as at 5c, Fig. 7. The stage 5b may also include heaters 11 and a bore 13 for cooling process may be provided in the final stage. |
