Molded member made of form-stabilized material and method for the manufacture thereof
First Claim
1. A process for preparing a molded form-stabilized member comprising the steps ofa) filling a mold with the at least one first component comprising a pigmentation,b) compressing the at least one first component in the mold to form in the at least one first component a depression having a surface curved in space,c) filling the depression with at least one second component comprising a different pigmentation than the first component, andd) compressing the at least one second component in the depression, such that the surface curved in space forms an interface, curved in space towards the at least one second component, between the at least one first and second components, thereby producing the molded form-stabilized member,wherein the interface (16) is essentially described by a family of parabolas, whereby the second component (14) has an essentially parabolic border line (42, 44, 46) towards the first component in a cross-sectional plane (36, 38, 40),wherein continuously decreasing maximums (48) go through at least 50% of the second component (14) in a taper direction (52),Wherein the second component (14) respectively has an essentially parabolic border line (42, 44, 46) in all mutually parallel cross-sectional planes (36, 38, 40), andwherein the essentially parabolic border lines (42, 44, 46) have continuously decreasing maximums (48), starting from a major cross-sectional phase (22) in the taper direction (52)and extending perpendicular to the major corss-sectional plane (22).

Abstract
Molded member made of form-stabilized material, comprising at least one first component and one second component, characterized in that the second component has a different pigmentation than the first component and the second component is disposed inside the first element, forming a boundary surface, in such a way that the boundary surface represents a spatially curved surface.
