| 20090014903 | METHOD OF MAKING FOAMING MEMBER WITH HETEROGENEOUS COMPOSITE FOAMING LAYERS - The present invention provides a method of making a foaming member with heterogeneous foaming layers. The first step is adding a foaming agent and an accelerator to a first material, which is a flexible material, and a second material, which is a non-flexible material, respectively, and then pressing and stirring the first material and the second material respectively for well mix. The second steps is pressing the first material and the second material respectively to form a first material piece and a second material piece. The third step is stacking the first material piece and the second material piece to form a stack. The fourth steps is vulcanizing the stack in a high pressure and high temperature environment to bond the first material piece and the second material piece together firmly; and the last step is releasing pressure on the stack to get a foaming member. | 01-15-2009 |
| 20090051066 | AUTOMOTIVE ARMREST WITH SOFT FEEL AND METHOD OF MAKING THE SAME - The present invention provides for an improved armrest with a soft feel for use in a trim assembly, and to a continuous two-shot molding operation that may be continuously performed utilizing a single mold assembly. In an exemplary embodiment, a trim assembly includes an integrated armrest formed by injecting a first material into a first shot mold cavity in a first shot of a molding operation. An armrest cover is molded to at least a portion of the armrest by injecting into a mold chamber a second foamed material in a second shot of the molding operation to provide the armrest with a soft feel. The second foamed material includes a foamed material that produces a soft, outer skin and a light, cellular inner core such that when a force is applied to the cover, the skin will deform and compress the inner core, providing a soft-touch feel to the armrest. | 02-26-2009 |
| 20090243135 | METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR MAKING FOAM-IN-PLACE CUSHIONS WITH SELECTIVE DISTRIBUTION OF FOAM - A method and apparatus for making a foam-in-place cushion in which a foam-forming composition is dispensed between two plastic film portions in a predetermined fashion to selectively control the distribution of the foam in the cushion. A foam dispenser can be moved in a transverse direction as foam is dispensed. A dispersion device can be employed to apply pressure on predetermined areas of the film portions towards each other so as to cause the composition to be redistributed in position in a predetermined manner while the composition is in a less than fully expanded state. The plastic film can then be sealed closed to form an expanding foam cushion that can be placed into a shipping carton where the cushion expands to fill void space, or into a mold where the cushion expands and is molded into a desired shape. | 10-01-2009 |
| 20100187711 | MANUFACTURING METHOD OF A THERMALLY INSULATED HOUSING - A back surface of an outer case is formed by mutually overlapping left and right back panels. The overlapping edges on the front side and backside of the panels may be bent toward the opposite side at a blunt angle. A joint between the back panels is established in which the overlapping edge of one back panel is pressed against the overlapping edge of the other back panel. Spacers are mounted between the outer and inner case such that the overlapping edges are put in close contact with each other. The bends are deformed in order to prevent leakage from the joint after the injection of foam liquid. Due to the pressure of the foam, both of the overlapping edges are placed in closer contact while deforming the bends to be substantially flat. Consequently, the sealing properties of the joint after the completion of the thermally insulated housing are secured. | 07-29-2010 |
