Abstract
A method for molding a sheet blow molding, wherein a board member as a core of the sheet blow molding is placed between a pair of thermoplastic sheets facing each other and separated by a predetermined distance. Opposite ends of the sheets are clamped by dampers so as to form clamped sheets with a closed space between the clamped sheets. The clamped sheets are heated by a heater and air is supplied to the closed space. The clamped sheets are pressed between molds so as to cover all outer surfaces of the board member and to be thermally bonded to the board member.
Claims4
A sheet blow molding comprising:
- a board member adapted to be a core of the sheet blow molding;
- and
- a surface material which is formed of thermoplastic plastic sheets covering all outer surfaces of said board member, said thermoplastic plastic sheets being thermally bonded to all the outer surfaces of said board member upon being clamped between a pair of molds and blow molded.
A method for molding a sheet blow molding, comprising the steps of:
- disposing a pair of thermoplastic sheets facing each other and separated by a predetermined distance;
- placing a board member as a core of the sheet blow molding between said sheets;
- clamping opposite ends of said sheets by dampers so as to form clamped sheets with a closed space between said clamped sheets;
- heating said clamped sheets by a heater;
- supplying air to said closed space;
- and
- pressing said clamped sheets between molds so as to cover all outer surfaces of said board member and to be thermally bonded thereto.
