Abstract: A technology capable of improving the production yield of molded articles. A film is supplied to a die surface of a resin molding die set. Next, the film is adhered to the die surface and caused to be in a state of being separated from the die surface at a corner section of a cavity recess. Next, a die set is closed to clamp the film. Next, a resin filling the interior of the cavity recess is thermoset, on the film provided therebetween, while adhering the film to the corner section.

Abstract: The method is capable of resin-molding one side face of a work in a molding die set, in which the work is sucked and held on at least one of clamping faces and resin-molded in a cavity concave section. The method comprises the steps of: sucking and holding a release film which covers at least one of the clamping faces of the molding die set; setting the work in the molding die set; sucking the other side face of the work through a work sucking hole of the release film, which is formed before or after holding the release film, so as to hold the work on the clamping face; closing the molding die set so as to clamp the work; and pressurizing and heating the resin, which has been accommodated in the cavity concave section, with resin.

Abstract: A vehicle lamp is provided with a first unit having a first main reflector for reflecting light from a first semiconductor light emitting element to a front side, and a second unit having a second main reflector for reflecting light from a second semiconductor light emitting element to the front side. A light emitting region of the first unit and a light emitting region of the second unit are arranged to be separated from each other. An additional optical unit for receiving light irradiated from the first and the second units to irradiate to the front side is arranged between the first unit and the second unit such that a light emitting region of the additional optical unit connects the light emitting region of the first unit and the light emitting region of the second unit to be optically recognized as a single light emitting region as a whole.

Abstract: An imprinting method carries out imprinting on a workpiece by clamping UV-curable resin between a nano-imprinting mold and a workpiece and curing the UV-curable resin using UV light. In this method, the workpiece is supported on a setting table provided with through-holes that are disposed in a planar region of the setting table on which the workpiece is set and are connected to a gas pumping/evacuating mechanism. The UV-curable resin is supplied onto the workpiece and the setting table is raised to and stopped at a filling operation position where the mold surface of the nano-imprinting mold and the surface of the workpiece are apart. After this, gas is pumped toward the lower surface of the workpiece from the through-holes and the workpiece is pressed onto the nano-imprinting mold from a center of the workpiece toward a periphery of the workpiece while gradually filling the UV-curable resin between the nano-imprinting mold and the workpiece.
