Abstract:

A method for making a cargo liner or a floor mat using a plastic molding process wherein a male mold includes a steel rule about its perimeter or a female mold includes a groove about its perimeter creating a ridge in the molded article to allow trimming of surplus material from the article along the ridge such that the dimensions of the finished article are determined by the ridge. In a preferred embodiment, an article is molded in a thermoforming process, the article thus produced includes a channel edge which enhances the appearance of the finished article and improves its structural integrity.

US Patent:

39627500, Jun 15, 1976
Filed:

Apr 7, 1975
Appl. No.:

5/565408
Inventors:

Kenton A. Buss - Oxford KS
Tony E. Branscum - Winfield KS
Assignee:

Gott Manufacturing Co., Inc. - Winfield KS
International Classification:

E05D 510
US Classification:

16168
Abstract:

Hinge construction for joining two relatively movable members. The hinge is particularly adapted for construction from plastics using known molding techniques and for incorporation into plastic molded parts. Identical hinge halves are formed to present, in each half, a planar mounting portion and a hinge tube section. The planar mounting portion is characterized by a peripheral tongue which is received within a peripheral groove of a socket in the respective member. The hinge tube section of each hinge half has opposed protuberances at one end which extend part way along the length of the section and into the tubular opening. When two hinge halves are placed with their tube sections aligned, the latter form a tubular hinge opening. A hinge pin is provided with opposed grooves which are complemental to the protuberances and disposed for alignment with the latter. The hinge pin may thus be inserted into the tubular hinge opening and held therein upon rotation to a nonaligning position.
