Abstract:
1. A method for producing a basin integrated in a receiving plane that comprises an upper surface and a lower surface, comprising the steps of: forming an opening in the receiving plane, the opening extending through the receiving plane from the lower surface to the upper surface and having an edge that defines a periphery of the opening; using an injection mold comprised of a lower shell of generally concave shape and at least one upper shell of generally convex shape, installing the receiving plane on the lower shell with the lower surface of the receiving plane bearing on an upper surface of the lower shell; placing the at least one upper shell on the upper surface of the receiving plane such that a lower surface of the at least one upper shell bears on the upper surface of the receiving plane to thereby form, with the lower shell, an impression with a shape of the basin to be obtained, the impression extending to the periphery of the opening; clamping the periphery of the opening of the receiving plane between the lower shell and the at least one upper shell such that at least part of the edge of the opening constitutes a continuous peripheral wall connecting the lower shell to the upper shell; and injecting a thermoplastic synthetic material into the impression to mold the basin onto the edge of the opening of the receiving plane.
