Method for producing a profiled shell-like article and mould useful therein

摘要

One or more layers of a thermosetting resin reinforced fabric and a thermoplastic material layer are placed in or on one half(7a) of a molding tool(5) and after tool closure and pressurization of the tool half a curing stage is performed. Demolding of the product is effected by parting the tool halves, one(7a) of which is elastically deformed to allow demolding without damaging the product. Independent claims are also included for: (a) a molding tool(5), one half(7a) of which is elastically deformable to allow product demolding and capable of being pressurized in a rear side chamber(59); (b) an additional component(22.3) which is integrated in the container wall(3), is made of a thermoplastic, thermosetting and/or metallic material and has a stepped edge taper to reduce stress loading at the contact area with the wall material; (c) a molded product with an additional component and a wall comprising at least one thermoplastic layer and one or more fabric reinforced resin material layers.
