Abstract: The present invention relates generally to intrinsic injection molding gates and a method of overmolding cordage. More specifically, this disclosure relates to a mold configuration wherein the viscous material is first injected into a distributor collar and then into a plurality of intrinsic injection molding gates with are formed between the injection mold and the cordage to be overmolded.

Abstract: An eyeglass retainer coupling having a plurality of co-axially aligned connection apertures, each aperture having a different inside diameter designed to accommodate the wide variety of modern eyeglass and sunglass frame styles and sizes. A large frame eyeglass temple can be inserted into the outmost connection aperture for sufficient retention. Whereas, a medium or small frame temple may be inserted through one or more of the larger connection apertures and into a connection aperture having a proper fit. The user may also choose to cut away or remove oversize connection apertures if the eyeglass retainer is used for eyeglasses having small temple earpieces.

Abstract: A modular retainer and decorative coupling system with interchangeable components used to form accessories including eyeglass retainers, lanyards, necklaces, wristbands, bracelets and hair ornaments. The modular coupling and eyeglass retainer system includes an elongate cord having an attachment portion on each end, a plurality of shorter cords, each having an attachment portion on each end, a plurality of interchangeable eyeglass frame couplers, a plurality of inter-coupler members and a medial connection device. The modular system components can be releasably coupled in various intercoupling schemes including, various eyeglass retainer configurations that accommodate a wide variety of eyeglass frame dimensions, and closed loop configurations, such as lanyards, necklaces, bracelets, wristbands and anklets.
