  • Flat mold for corner-shaped simulated stone products
    Patent number: 7931248
    Abstract: A mold for manufacturing a corner-shaped simulated stone product has a mold cavity configured to imprint a stone texture on at least a first side face and a front face of the corner-shaped product. The mold also provides a back face with a desirable molded interior angle. The mold cavity can have a flexible edge around a perimeter of the mold cavity to impart a textured surface to a second side face of the corner-shaped product.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: December 28, 2005
    Date of Patent: April 26, 2011
    Assignee: Boral Stone Products LLC

  • Under carpet heat shield and floor pan insulator
    Patent number: 7166547
    Abstract: An under carpet heat shield/floor pan insulator is provided for a vehicle. The shield/insulator includes an acoustical and thermal insulating layer of polymer fiber that shows no signs of any thickness increase, delamination, deterioration or any undesirable effect which may affect performance for at least 330 hours when maintained at a temperature of at least approximately 150° C. The shield/insulator may include a relatively high density, nonlaminate skin of polymer fiber and/or one or more facing layers constructed from polymer material.

  • Flow through molding apparatus and method
    Patent number: 7159836
    Abstract: A mold for molding fibrous molding media includes upper and lower mold bodies defining a mold cavity, the upper and lower mold bodies being movable relative to each other to close the mold. The upper and lower mold bodies have respective upper and lower mold surfaces for contacting the fibrous molding media positioned within the mold, and have gas flow openings configured to direct gases into contact with the fibrous molding media. The mold also includes a source of gas connected to the gas flow openings.
