Abstract: A printing method for printing a first image and a second image on a printing object by using a print head while changing a relative position and a relative attitude of the print head relative to the print object, includes a first printing step of printing the first image on the printing object by using the print head; a processing step of performing an expansion and contraction processing on the second image so as to adjoin the first image printed on the printing object; and a second printing step of printing the second image that has been subjected to the expansion and contraction processing so as to adjoin the first image, on the printing object by using the print head.

Abstract: A printing method for printing a first image and a second image while changing a relative position and a relative attitude of a print head relative to a printing object, includes a first printing step of printing a first print image obtained by forming an unprinted region in the first image, a detecting step of detecting the unprinted region, an adjusting step of adjusting the print head such that the second image adjoins the first image, and a second printing step of printing a second print image including the second image and a partial image.

Abstract: An instrument panel unit (2) includes an instrument panel (3) and a decorative sheet (4). The instrument panel (3) includes a sticking portion (3a) and an exposed portion (3b). A plurality of insertion grooves 3c and insertion holes 3d are formed alternately at an end on a rear side of the sticking portion (3a), into which bent pieces (4a) formed at a rear end of the decorative sheet (4) are inserted. A groove front-surface (3g) forming the insertion groove (3c) of the instrument panel (3) is formed in a tapered shape such that a width between the groove front-surface and an opposing groove rear-surface (3h) gradually increases upwardly. The bent piece (4a) is formed to be thinner than the groove width at the upper part serving as the entrance part of the insertion groove (3c) and to be thicker than the groove width of a groove bottom-surface (3i).

Abstract: Provided is a molding apparatus or an apparatus for manufacturing a laminated resin molding, which is composed of a female mold, a first horizontal mold, a second horizontal mold and a male mold, and these components form a cavity. This cavity includes a horizontal portion extending in a horizontal direction, and a first vertical portion and a second vertical portion, which rise substantially vertically from the horizontal portion. The first vertical portion has a vertical size set larger than that of the second vertical portion. In the male mold, an injector is disposed at a portion corresponding to the substantially central portion of the horizontal portion, and an air supply pipe is disposed at a portion corresponding to the second vertical portion.
