Abstract:
A monolithic injection molded plastic part including an interior core, a surface formed as a monolithic structure with the interior core, and a distribution of hollow cells formed within the interior core during an injection molding process from a blowing agent and methods for making the same are provided. Such methods include preparing a mixture of unmelted plastic resin, filler agent, and blowing agent, melting the mixture into a viscous combination using a standard injection molding machine, injecting a set amount of the viscous combination into a hollow cavity of an injection mold secured within the standard injection molding machine, and holding the set amount of the viscous combination in the hollow cavity at a low pressure for a hold time until the viscous combination sets into a monolithic structure at least partially filling the hollow cavity and the blowing agent forms a distribution of hollow cells throughout the monolithic structure.

Claim (Index 9):
A part comprising:\n a first monolithically molded plastic piece formed of a first plastic polymer material and having a first interior core and a first surface formed as a monolithic structure with the first interior core, wherein the first interior core substantially fills the first surface and includes a first distribution of first hollow cells formed from a first chemical blowing agent during an injection molding process; a second monolithically molded plastic piece formed of a second plastic polymer material and having a second interior core and a second surface formed as a monolithic structure with the second interior core, wherein the second interior core substantially fills the second surface and includes a second distribution of second hollow cells formed from a second chemical blowing agent during an injection molding process; and a fastener having a first end coupled to the first distribution of the first hollow cells inside the first monolithically molded plastic piece and a second end coupled to the second distribution of the second hollow cells inside the second monolithically molded plastic piece.
