Abstract: A core mold for bent pipes including a main body formed of a plurality of hollow cylindrical members connected to each other, the angle between adjacent hollow cylindrical members being fixable at any desired value. The main body may be mounted to a shaft through support members each of which consists of a main body fixed to the main body of the core mold and a shaft support member secured rotatably to the main body of the support member, the shaft support member being slidable along the shaft.

Abstract: Apparatus and method for molding a reinforced plastic tubular body having a socket, and a mold for carrying out the method. The steps of the method areassembling a main mold body having a tubular section and a socket-molding member slidable axially along the periphery of the tubular section of the main body and fixable at a predetermined position to the tubular section of the main body to form a mold by fixing the socket-molding member at the predetermined position to the tubular section of the main body,forming a layer of a reinforced plastic molding material around the resulting mold and curing it, andpulling the main mold body and the socket-molding member axially from the cured plastic layer.

Abstract: A pipe joint of a reinforced resin having a structure in which the wall of at least a socket portion consists of an inside surface layer composed of a cured product of a reinforced resin molding material, an outside surface layer composed of a cured product of a reinforced resin molding material, and an interlayer between these layers composed of a cured product of a resin mortar.

Abstract: A process for producing a thick reinforced plastic article by laminating unit layers of a molding material composed of a thermosetting resin and a reinforcing material, which comprises scattering fibers on the surface of an earlier disposed unit layer while it is in the uncured state, then curing the unit layer, and laminating the next layer on the cured unit layer.
