Process for producing multilayer molded article
First Claim
1. A process for producing a multilayer molded article comprising the steps of:
- providing a preheated fiber-reinforced resin sheet between a pair of upper and lower molds,supplying a resin melt of a thermoplastic resin between said upper mold and said fiber-reinforced resin sheet from a resin supplying opening provided in said lower mold through a hole made in said fiber-reinforced resin sheet, andclosing of the molds by moving the upper mold toward the lower mold during resin supply or as soon as the resin supply is finished to produce a multilayer molded article comprising said fiber-reinforced resin sheet and a skin layer of said thermoplastic resin which is integrally laminated on said resin sheet.

Abstract
A multilayer molded article having good appearance is produced by providing a preheated fiber-reinforced resin sheet between a pair of upper and lower molds, and supplying a thermoplastic resin melt and optionally a foam sheet between the upper mold and the fiber-reinforced resin sheet. The thermoplastic resin melt is supplied through a resin supplying opening provided in the lower mold, and through a hole made in the fiber-reinforced resin sheet and the foam sheet. During the supply of the resin melt or as soon as the resin supply is finished, the molds are closed to further flow, and the resin melt is formed to produce a mu molded article made of the fiber-reinforced resin sheet, a skin layer of the thermoplastic resin and optionally the foam sheet therebetween.

3. A process for producing a multilayer molded article comprising the steps of:
-
providing a preheated fiber-reinforced resin sheet between a pair of upper and lower molds and then a foam sheet on said resin sheet supplying a resin melt of a thermoplastic resin between said upper mold and said foam sheet from a resin supplying opening provided in said lower mold through holes made in said fiber-reinforced resin sheet and said foam sheet, and closing of the molds by moving the upper mold toward the lower mold during resin supply or as soon as the resin supply is finished to produce a multilayer molded article comprising said fiber-reinforced resin sheet, said foam sheet and a skin layer of said thermoplastic resin which is integrally laminated on said foam sheet. - View Dependent Claims (4, 9, 10, 11, 12)
