  • Patent number: 4955970
    Abstract: A method for forming a joint between a product formed of composite material including reinforcing fibers and a connecting piece includes forming the connecting piece with a shoulder within a joint region thereof and during the formation of the product, guiding the longitudinally extending reinforcing fibers of the composite material as continuous, unitary fibers through a first path within the joint region of the connecting piece toward the connecting piece shoulder, around the shoulder of the connecting piece, and then in a substantially opposite direction through a second path within the joint region of the connecting piece to return to the composite material of the product, whereby both the product of composite material and the joint between the product and the connecting piece are formed simultaneously.
