BACKGROUND
The appellants' invention relates to a method of forming a
synthetic resin formed article. An understanding of the
invention can be derived from a reading of exemplary claims 1,
4, and 5 which are reproduced below . 2
1. A method of forming a synthetic resin formed article
having a double-layer structure consisting of a base portion
and a covering portion which covers an outer periphery of said
base portion and which has an inwardly curved portion for
covering an end portion of said base portion, said method
comprising the steps of:
forming a sheet-like material into a predetermined shape
by vacuum forming utilizing a vacuum forming die apparatus to
obtain a preliminary covering portion;
trimming an end portion of said preliminary covering
portion obtained in the forming step to obtain said covering
portion of said formed article, said covering portion being
formed via vacuum forming prior to formation of the base
portion;
2We note that in claim 1, lines 25 and 26 (Paper No. 21),
the phrase "the slide cores" appears to be inadvertently in
the plural form, the previous recitation being to "a slide
core" (claim 1, line 17).
