Abstract
A flexible, silicone mold having a container and a peripheral rim that defines an opening to the container. Grasping zones are disposed along the rim and the grasping zones have sufficient dimensions to permit control of the geometry of the rim and also to permit control of the horizontal positions of the two grasping zones.
Claims19
A flexible, silicone mold, comprising:
- a container having a peripheral rim defining an opening of the container, the container and rim material being made of silicone;
- and
- a plurality of grasping zones disposed along substantially opposite ends of the rim, the grasping zones having sufficient dimensions for receipt of reinforcement sections comprising a cross-sectional area which is less than that of the grasping zones, and adapted to permit control of a geometry of the rim and to permit control of horizontal positions of the grasping zones, the reinforcement sections being bordered about their periphery by portions of the grasping zones which are free of reinforcement.
