Abstract

A decorated molded article includes a corner portion in the form of an entirely rounded corner portion. The rounded corner portion has a distal end face at a distal end thereof. The distal end face has a width determined by an outer curved line and an inner curved line. The inner curved line has a central portion curved to approach the outer curved line. The width of the distal end face of the rounded corner portion is smaller than a width of a distal end face formed at a distal end of the first wall extending from the substrate body.

Claims (15)

1. A decorated molded article, comprising;

a resin substrate molded of a synthetic resin material; and

a decorative sheet provided with a decoration and applied to an obverse side of the resin substrate,

the resin substrate including a substrate body, a first wall rising from a reverse side of the substrate body, a second wall rising from the reverse side of the substrate body and arranged in orthogonal relation to the first wall, and a corner portion formed at a merging point between the first wall and the second wall,

the corner portion being an entirely rounded corner portion,

the rounded corner portion extending from the substrate body and having a distal end face at a distal end thereof,

the distal end face having a width determined by an outer curved line and an inner curved line,

the inner curved line having a central portion curved to approach the outer curved line,

the width of the distal end face of the rounded corner portion being smaller than a width of a distal end face formed at a distal end of the first wall extending from the substrate body.

2. The decorated molded article according to claim 1 , wherein the inner curved line has a length approximately equal to a length of the outer curved line.

3. The decorated molded article according to claim 1 , wherein the rounded corner portion is recessed on an inner side thereof to form a curved inclined surface curved in a concave shape and inclined in such a manner as to gradually reduce a thickness of the rounded corner portion toward the distal end of the rounded corner portion.

4. A decorated molded article comprising:

a resin substrate molded of a synthetic resin and having an obverse side and a reverse side opposite to the obverse side, the resin substrate further having a peripheral edge bent toward the reverse side thereof, the peripheral edge having at least one curved inner corner portion, the curved inner corner portion being thinned on an inner side thereof in such a manner as to gradually reduce a thickness of the curved inner corner portion in a direction from an inner end toward an outer end of the peripheral edge; and

a decorative sheet applied to the obverse side of the resin substrate in such a manner as to enclose the peripheral edge from the obverse side toward the reverse side of the resin substrate.

5. The decorated molded article according to claim 4 , wherein the curved inner corner portion is recessed on the inner side to form a curved inclined surface curved in a concave shape and inclined in such a manner as to gradually reduce the thickness of the curved inner corner portion toward the outer end of the peripheral edge.
