  • Patent number: 11241809
    Abstract: A molding die and a molding method are provided, which allow high-cycle manufacturing of molded bodies of a thermoplastic resin or thermoplastic resin-fiber composite material, thereby improving productivity. Molding is performed using a molding die including a plurality of die portions that form a cavity in which a molded body is molded, the molding die including: a first temperature adjusting unit disposed in the vicinity of the cavity surface and capable of at least cooling the cavity surface; and a second temperature adjusting unit disposed on a side of the first temperature adjusting unit opposite from the cavity surface and capable of at least heating the cavity surface, wherein a distance L0 from the cavity surface to the first temperature adjusting unit and a distance L1 from the cavity surface to a surface of the corresponding die portion opposite from the cavity surface satisfy the relationship: (L1/L0)>3.

  • Patent number: 10479005
    Abstract: A composite molded article (3) containing: a thermoplastic resin continuous fiber composite material (1) containing a continuous reinforcement fiber (A) and a thermoplastic resin (B); and a thermoplastic resin composition (2), wherein the thermoplastic resin continuous fiber composite material (1) is bonded to the thermoplastic resin composition (2) via a bonding surface, and a bonded part between the thermoplastic resin continuous fiber composite material (1) and the thermoplastic resin composition (2) has a tensile strength which is 0.35 times or more as strong as a tensile strength of the thermoplastic resin composition (2).
