INFORMATION PROCESSING METHOD, STORAGE MEDIUM, INFORMATION PROCESSING APPARATUS, DESIGNING METHOD OF MOLD, MANUFACTURING METHOD OF MOLD, AND MANUFACTURING METHOD OF MOLDED PRODUCT - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240160188 titled 'INFORMATION PROCESSING METHOD, STORAGE MEDIUM, INFORMATION PROCESSING APPARATUS, DESIGNING METHOD OF MOLD, MANUFACTURING METHOD OF MOLD, AND MANUFACTURING METHOD OF MOLDED PRODUCT
Simplified Explanation
The abstract describes an information processing method for designing a mold for molding a molded product. The method involves receiving data including the three-dimensional shape of the molded product and a non-molded product area enclosing the molded product. It also includes extracting a three-dimensional space from the non-molded product area that becomes an undercut portion when the first and second molds forming the molded product are opened.
- Three-dimensional shape data of molded product and non-molded product area received
- Undercut portion extracted from non-molded product area
- First and second molds forming the molded product are opened
Potential Applications
This technology could be applied in various industries such as manufacturing, automotive, aerospace, and consumer goods for designing molds for molded products with complex shapes.
Problems Solved
1. Simplifies the mold design process for products with undercut portions 2. Improves efficiency in mold manufacturing by accurately identifying non-molded product areas
Benefits
1. Enhanced precision in mold design 2. Reduction in production time and costs 3. Ability to create molds for intricate products
Potential Commercial Applications
Optimizing Mold Design for Complex Products
Possible Prior Art
Prior art in mold design software and techniques may exist, but specific examples are not provided in this context.
Unanswered Questions
How does this method compare to traditional mold design processes?
This method streamlines the design process by focusing on extracting undercut portions, but it would be beneficial to know if it offers significant time or cost savings compared to traditional methods.
What types of molded products would benefit most from this technology?
Understanding the specific industries or products that would see the greatest advantages from this method could provide valuable insights into its potential market impact.
Original Abstract Submitted
an information processing method of designing a mold for molding a molded product, the method includes a processing of receiving data including a molded product area indicating a three-dimensional shape of the molded product, and a non-molded product area indicating a three-dimensional shape of a non-molded product space enclosing the molded product, and a processing of extracting, from the non-molded product area, a three-dimensional space that becomes an undercut portion in a state where a first mold and a second mold forming the molded product are opened.
