Abstract: A molding method and a mold therefor capable of forming a doll head of a shape exactly conforming to a mold by blow molding using a safe molding material. A split mold (2, 3) which has an inner surface formed to have a configuration conforming to a shape of a doll head (17) is so arranged that a parting line (18) formed by mold members (2, 3) of the split mold may be formed on a hairline of the hair of the doll head (17) or in proximity thereto. A molding material is constituted by a thermoplastic synthetic resin elastomer as a main ingredient thereof and has a plasticizer and a coloring agent added thereto. The molding material is heated and then dropped in as a parison (15) between the mold members (2, 3) of the split mold spaced from each other. Then, the mold members (2, 3) of the split mold are joined together and air is blown into the split mold. Air is removed through at least one projection such as a nose (5) or the like from a cavity during blowing of air into the split mold (2, 3).

Abstract: Of margins of a resin molding with an antenna element buried therein which lie around the antenna element, a margin on that side of the resin molding where a gate mark remains is made larger than margins on other sides where there is no gate mark. Particularly, when the antenna element has a line antenna portion and a capacitance-adding portion provided at a distal end of the line antenna portion, the resin molding is injection-molded in such a way that a gate mark can be formed on that side where the capacitance-adding portion is located. Those portions of the resin molding where the terminal portions are led out are dented from levels of portions around those portions. This provides a chip antenna which has a simple structure with a high mechanical strength and does not prevent separation or cracking from occurring in the resin molding in which the antenna element is buried and a method of manufacturing the chip antenna.

Abstract: A method for forming a safe molding material into an elastic doll head of a uniform thickness without deteriorating an appearance of the doll head. Split mold members (2, 3) each have an inner surface (2a, 3a) formed to have a configuration which provides a shape of a doll head (A) when the split mold members cooperate with each other. The split mold members (2, 3) form the doll head with a parting line (18) in a manner to extend from an upper portion (27) of a forehead of the doll head through a rear side (28) of each of ears thereof to a rear portion (29) of a neck thereof, to thereby substantially equally divide the doll head into two halves. A molding material mainly consisting of a thermoplastic synthetic resin elastomer is heated and dropped in the form of a parison (13) into a space defined between the split mold members (2, 3) kept spaced from each other. Then, the split mold members (2, 3) are joined to each other and air is blown into the thus-joined split mold members.

Abstract: A small antenna comprises an antenna conductor, and a dielectric chip formed at surroundings of the antenna conductor by a plurality of resin moldings.

Abstract: A compact antenna comprises a core which is a hard linear member having a predetermined shape corresponding to resonance characteristic, a conductor film which covers at least a portion of an outer surface of the core and which has higher electric conductivity than that of the core, and a substrate which closely surrounds and holds the outer surface of the core covered with the connection film. A film thickness of the conductor film is equal to a skin depth and thus, it is possible to inexpensively maintain reliability, and to prevent radiation efficiency from being lowered.

Abstract: A small antenna comprises a planar antenna element, and a resin molded body integrally molded with the antenna element, and the resin molded body has a thin part and a thick part on both sides of the antenna element, and a gate portion at a resin molding is provided to the thin part.

Abstract: A chip antenna comprises an antenna conductor, and a dielectric chip which stacks on a portion of the antenna conductor, in which a conductor exposed portion of the antenna conductor which is not overlapped on the dielectric chip is bent along the surface of the dielectric chip.

Abstract: An optical ferrule is a molding of a resin composition comprising a base resin, silica, and whisker, as essential components. The resin composition has a melt viscosity of 300 to 600 [Pa×sec.] when measured at a shear rate of 900 [1/sec.] at a temperature of 340° C. by using a capillary having a diameter of 0.1 mm and a depth of 30 mm as defined by JIS-K-7199. Preferably, the base resin is a linear polyphenylene sulfide resin, and 250 to 300 parts by weight of silica and 10 to 70 parts by weight of whisker are blended with 100 parts by weight of the linear polyphenylene sulfide resin.
