Method for producing flexible three-dimensional articles

Manufacturing process for the production of flexible three-dimensional items, made from an outer material formed by flat cuts of flexible material, which entails cutting the pieces, which will form the outer material;

• preparing a mould and a counter mould, between which a volume corresponding to that of the three-dimensional item to be produced is delimited;
• placing the cuts, which will form the outer material between the mould and counter mould delimiting channels and spaces between them;
• injecting a plastic material through the aforementioned channels and spaces;
• and opening the mould once the plastic material injected has solidified and then removing the item produced, wherein:
• the cuts, which will form the outer material are secured on a flexible laminated template, in a matching position to that which they will occupy in the outer material of the item to be produced;
• the mould and counter mould have opposing surfaces without ridges in the area to be occupied by the cut pieces which will form the outer material of the item to be produced;
• the laminated template, along with the cut pieces which will form the outer material, are arranged on the inner surface of the mould, with said cut pieces facing the counter mould;
• and
• a network of channels through which the plastic material is injected is delimited between the laminated template and the counter mould, coinciding with the lines, which separate the consecutive cut pieces which form the outer material.
