Abstract: In an embodiment, a method of manufacturing (100) is described. The method comprises providing (102) a first layer defining a first inner surface (203a) and a first outer surface (203b), a second layer defining a second inner surface (205a) and a second outer surface (205b), and an electrical component (206) positioned on the first inner surface or the second inner surface. The method further comprises attaching (104) the first and second layers together to create a device (200) comprising the first and second layers, wherein the first outer surface and the second outer surface define an external surface of the device. The device further comprises a sealed portion (208) defined by liquid-tight attachment between the first and second inner surfaces. In use of the device, the sealed portion prevents liquid ingress into the device between the first and second layers towards the electrical component.

Abstract: There is provided a light guiding unit (10) for use in an oral cleaning device. The light guiding unit is configured to be coupled to a light source (50), and the light guiding unit comprises a homogenizing component (110) having a length along which light from the light source is guided. The homogenizing component is further configured such that at least one of an amount of refraction of the guided light and an amount of internal reflection of the guided light varies along the length to homogenize, along the length of the homogenizing component, an amount of light transmitting out of the homogenizing component.

Abstract: A housing element of a product includes a foil having a decorated side, where this decorated side of the foil is covered by a grip layer for realizing a grip effect. The other side of the foil is covered by a supportive layer. The grip layer may have a rib structure. Each of the supportive layer and the grip layer is applied to the foil in an injection molding process. A processing temperature of the material of the grip layer is significantly lower than an activation temperature of printing ink of a decorative covering of the foil, so that washout of the printing ink is prevented. Further, material of an adhesive layer of the foil is configured to establish adhesion to the material of the grip layer at this relatively low temperature.

Preferably, the grip layer (20) has a rib structure. In a preferred way of manufacturing the housing 5 element (1), each of the supportive layer and the grip layer (20) is applied to the foil (30) in an injection molding process. A processing temperature of the material of the grip layer (20) is significantly lower than an activation temperature of printing ink of a decorative covering of the foil (30), so that washout of the printing ink is prevented, whereas material of an adhesive layer of the foil (30) is adapted to establish adhesion to the material of the grip layer 10 (20) at this relatively low temperature.

Abstract: In a process of manufacturing a product part (50), a composite fibre sheet (10) is applied, and one side of the composite fibre sheet (10) is covered with a plastic material. First of all, the composite fibre sheet (10) is shaped by heating the sheet (10) and pressing the sheet (10) in a shaping mold. Subsequently, the composite fibre sheet (10) is placed in an injection mold into which liquid plastic is introduced for the purpose of applying a plastic layer (12) to the sheet (10). In this way, as a result of the application of the composite fibre sheet (10), a product part (50) having a high stiffness and a pleasant look and feel is obtained, which is preferred over a product part having a plastic body filled with reinforcing fibres.
