Abstract
A method for manufacturing a handle for a personal care implement includes molding from a fiber-reinforced material, preferably by injection-molding, a core-connector unit having a core structure and a connector for attaching and detaching a head to and from the handle, and molding, preferably by injection-molding, a polymeric material onto the core structure to form a component that at last partially covers the core structure.
Claims22
A method for manufacturing a handle (12) for a personal care implement (10), the method comprising steps of:
- molding a core-connector unit (20) from a fiber-reinforced material, the core-connector unit (20) comprising a core structure (18) and a connector (16) for attaching and detaching a head (14) to and from the handle (12),
- wherein the connector (16) and the core structure (18) are made as one unitary piece, and
- molding a polymeric material onto the core structure (18) to form a second component (22), the second component (22) at last partially covering the core structure (18).
