Abstract:
A method for fixing together a synthetic resin film and a molding resin comprising the steps of:providing an upper die including a cavity having at least an inner surface of a predetermined configuration, a lower die having at least a pin gate, a synthetic resin film including a biaxially stretched polyethylene terephthalate film or a biaxially stretched polyethylene naphthalate film, and a molding resin including a thermoplastic resin material other than the synthetic resin constituting the synthetic resin film;clamping the synthetic resin film between a portion of the upper die at a periphery of the cavity and the lower die;injecting, under pressure, the molding resin in a molten state from the pin gate in the lower die to urge the molten molding resin against a portion of the synthetic resin film which is positioned in the cavity of the upper die and is not clamped between the portion of the upper die at the periphery of the cavity and the lower die, to thereby stretch the portion of the synthetic resin film until it comes into intimate contact with the inner surface of the cavity, while, at the same time, filling the cavity with the molten molding resin; andsubsequently cooling the molten molding resin until it is solidified, whereby the stretched portion of the synthetic resin film and the molding resin are directly fused together.
