Abstract

PURPOSE:To restrain generation of shrinkage by mixing a foaming agent into a resin material at the time of molding, and setting such a thickness as to enable the foaming agent to foam at both ends of a thin thickness part or a protrusion part. CONSTITUTION:An air bag device lid 11 is provided with a lid main body 12 as a sheet shape plate part wherein a carbon group foaming agent is mixed into a thermoplastic resin material, and a pair of leg parts 13 as protrusion parts protruded underneath from the lid main body 12, and a groove-shape thin thickness part 12a is formed into a U-shape in the lid main body 12. In manufacturing the air bag device lid 11, a thermoplastic resin material pellet with a foaming agent pellet mixed therein is injected into a cavity of a metal mold, and after cooling-curing, released from the mold to complete manufacturing. In the cooling-curing, a shrinkage margin is different at a part where a thickness is changed, however, by mixing the foaming agent, a foaming quantity is large at a part having the large shrinkage margin and shrinkage is thereby prevented.

However, in such a conventional one, since the plate thickness changes abruptly in the leg portion 6 and the thin portion 5a, the surface of the lid body 5 is shrunk due to shrinkage during resin curing. There is a problem that sink marks are generated in a portion corresponding to the leg portion 6 of the above and a portion corresponding to both sides of the thin portion 5a. Therefore, the recess 5b is formed in advance in the portion corresponding to the thin portion 5a to make the sink mark inconspicuous.
Since the concave portion 5b is formed, the sense of continuity is impaired and
The freedom of modeling is limited. Further, there is a problem that a sink mark still appears as an appearance on a portion of the surface of the lid body 5 corresponding to the leg portion 6.

According to the structure described in claim 1, when the foaming agent is mixed in the molten resin material and the resin material is cooled and hardened into a predetermined shape, only the resin material can form a thin portion of the plate portion. Although shrinkage tends to occur due to the large amount of shrinkage on both sides, the foaming agent foams on both sides, which offsets and prevents sinkage. Further, in the portion where the convex portion is formed, since this portion is thicker than the other portions, the shrinkage amount tends to be large and shrinkage tends to occur only with the resin material. Since the amount of foaming is larger than the other parts, they are offset to prevent sink marks.

Specifically, in the thin portion 12a, shrinkage due to cooling and hardening and foaming due to the foaming agent p hardly occur. On the other hand, at the portions on both sides of the thin portion 12a, shrinkage occurs due to cooling and hardening, but foaming due to the foaming agent p also occurs, so that they do not cancel each other out and a sink mark as in the conventional case does not occur.

The amount of addition is based on the following experimental results. That is, the airbag device is used in a wide range of temperatures from high temperature to low temperature.
No. 1 needs to be split and expanded as shown by the chain double-dashed line in FIG. 1 without cracking when the airbag is expanded from low temperature to high temperature. In particular, since resin products are apt to crack at low temperatures, a test was carried out under the condition of −30 ° C. when the carbon dioxide-based foaming agent p was added. 4 and 5 show the results of cold cracking and appearance quality evaluation at this time. The low temperature crack shows the evaluation result by the high speed surface impact test.

As is clear from FIGS. 4 and 5, the low temperature cracking is extremely deteriorated when the amount of the foaming agent p added exceeds 2%.
In addition, the appearance quality is not preferable when the addition amount is about 0.5%, and some sink marks remain, and when the addition amount is more than 2%, the appearance is swollen and silver is increased.
