In this case, since the projections 10 are provided on the corners of the concave portion 3a of the base material 3, the cushion layer 7b is pressed by the projections 10 and the opposite side of the pressed portion (ie, the skin layer 7a).
Side), the cushion layer 7b is raised. Therefore, protrusion 1
0, and the crushing of the cushion layer 7b due to the depression of the convex portion 6b of the female mold 6 described above is offset, and the laminated sheet 7 is kept flat up to the upper position P2 of the protrusion 10, and Stretching starts from P2. Since the upper position P2 is located above the wall of the recess 3a and inside the conventional position P1 shown in FIG. 13 , the corners of the laminated sheet 7 have a square shape.

This effect becomes more remarkable as the depth of the concave portion 3a of the base material 3 is increased and the extension of the laminated sheet 7 is increased.
Further, it becomes more remarkable as the cushion layer is thicker. Then, by making the thickness of the laminated sheet 7 after stretching less than half the thickness of the laminated sheet 7 before molding, the radius of the corner of the laminated sheet 7 becomes smaller than the thickness of the laminated sheet 7 before molding.

FIG. 12 (a) ~ (c) is an explanatory view of the relationship between the projection-shaped and the corner shape of the laminated sheet. Laminated sheet 7
The thickness of the skin layer 7a is 0.6 mm, and the thickness of the cushion layer 7b is 2.0 mm. (A) is an explanatory view of a case where the corners of the laminated sheet 7 are formed to be square using the protrusions 10a of FIG. 11 (a). As is apparent from the figure, the protrusion of the cushion layer 7b due to the protrusion 10a is larger than the collapse of the cushion layer 7b due to the depression of the convex portion 6b (see FIG. 7) of the female die 6, so that the laminated sheet 7 is located above the protrusion 10a. It was found that the position P2 was raised, and the laminated sheet 7 was raised above the projections 10a, so that it was difficult to obtain a suitable convex corner. (B) is an explanatory view of a case where the corners of the laminated sheet 7 are formed in a square state using the protrusions 10b of FIG. 11 (b). As is apparent from the figure, the protrusion of the cushion layer 7b due to the protrusion 10b is larger than the collapse of the cushion layer 7b due to the depression of the protrusion 6b (see FIG. 7) of the female die 6, so that the laminated sheet 7 is located above the protrusion 10b. It was found that the position P2 was raised, and the laminated sheet 7 was raised above the projection 10b, so that it was difficult to obtain a suitable convex corner. (C) is an explanatory diagram in the case of forming the state of angular corners of the laminated sheet 7 using the projection 10c of FIG. 11 (c). As is apparent from the figure, the protrusion of the cushion layer 7b due to the projection 10c and the collapse of the cushion layer 7b due to the depression of the convex portion 6b (see FIG. 7) of the female die 6 cancel each other,
It has been found that the laminated sheet 7 is kept flat up to the position P2 above the projection 10c, and the corners of the laminated sheet 7 can be formed in a square state.

According to the present invention, the following effects are exhibited by the above configuration. According to the first aspect of the present invention, since the projection is formed integrally on the convex portion of the base material in advance, the cushion layer of the laminated sheet is pressed by the projection, and the cushion layer is provided on the opposite side (ie, the skin layer side) of the pressed portion. Raise the layer. By offsetting the bump of the cushion layer and the crushing of the cushion layer due to the stretching of the laminated sheet by the female mold, the stretching of the laminated sheet starts from the position of the protrusion. Thereby, the starting position of the stretching of the laminated sheet can be set in the vicinity of the convex portion of the base material, so that the corner of the laminated sheet becomes square.

According to the second aspect of the present invention, since the projection is made to protrude in the mold opening direction of the mold, the projection does not protrude from the vertical wall surface forming the projection of the substrate. Therefore, since it is not necessary to form an undercut portion, the corners of the laminated sheet can be made square without complicating the structure of the mold.
