Abstract:
An article manufactured from a polymer filled with fibers includes a plurality of ribs orientated and configured in a unique manner to improve resistance to an impact from an object. The ribs extend from a planar portion of the article. A fillet interconnects the ribs and the planar portion and includes a fillet radius of at least 0.75 mm. The fibers of the polymer are aligned within the article parallel to a flow of the polymer when injected into a mold during a molding process. The ribs are oriented in a pattern relative to the aligned fibers to maximize the impact resistance of the article.
