Patent number: 7014901Abstract: The present invention intends to provide an air bag door construction in which the air bag develops smoothly and securely, the skin can be easily produced with small man-hour, and which is excellent in the surface appearance. The skin 50 is formed by a mold 5 including an endless and annular wall 50 provided at a part of a molding surface to be inclined relative to the molding surface. A groove portion 35 of the skin 3 formed by the wall 50 is cut at a bottom portion thereof to separate the skin 3 into a general portion 30 and a door portion 31. The general portion 30 and the door portion 31 are relatively shifted to make both surfaces thereof flush with each other. When the surfaces of the general portion 30 and the door portion 31 are flush by the relative shift, gap between the general portion 30 and the door portion 31 can be narrowed, and gap appeared on the surface can also be narrowed.Type: GrantFiled: February 5, 2003Date of Patent: March 21, 2006Assignees: Tokai Chemical Industries, Ltd., Toyoda Goset Co., Ltd.Inventors: Shoji Sanae, Shigehiro Ueno, Akiyoshi Nagano, Hiroshi Suyama, Akio Nakano

Patent number: 5756189Abstract: A console lid comprises a base having a predetermined rigidity and a skin layer member having an inner layer and an outer layer, which covers the base. A cushioning layer made of foamed polyurethane having a thickness that decreases toward the ends thereof is provided between the top of the base and the skin layer member. The skin layer member which has been trimmed is positioned in a mold and the cushioning layer is positioned so that it is in contact with the skin layer member. A plasticized resin is charged into a mold cavity from a gate to form a base. Excellent soft touch and feel is provided by the resulting composite structure since the cushioning layer, made of a soft material, is provided between the base and the skin layer member in a position where such a soft touch or cushioning is most desirable.Type: GrantFiled: November 14, 1995Date of Patent: May 26, 1998Assignee: Toyoda Gosei Co., Ltd.Inventors: Akiyoshi Nagano, Kenichi Furuta, Katsuhiro Katagiri, Tetsuya Fujii, Hiroshi Suyama

Patent number: 5205887Abstract: A manufacturing method for an article having a foamed layer, comprising the steps of: retaining and fixing an adherent portion having a resin-made reinforcing layer and a foamed layer, the reinforcing layer having an integrally formed design surface; and vibration welding, with a low-frequency wave, the reinforcing layer and a base portion together so as to be integrally bonded while the base portion, formed of resin which can be welded to the reinforcing layer, is in contact with the reinforcing layer. Thus, it is possible to reduce the processes which require a great deal of man-hours, such as the applying and drying of an adhesive material, sewing and mechanically affixing. Consequently, an attractive article can be produced while reducing manufacturing man-hours and providing for automated manufacture.Type: GrantFiled: May 1, 1991Date of Patent: April 27, 1993Assignee: Toyoda Gosei Co., Ltd.Inventors: Shigeru Yabuya, Katsuhiro Katagiri, Akiyoshi Nagano, Norio Jogan, Hiroshi Suyama
