IPC: D06C11/00
Filed: 1998-06-12
Abstract: L'invention concerne un procédé et un appareil permettant de relâcher, de couper et d'abraser une bande continue (16) de tissu textile constitué de filés qui contiennent des fibres d'enroulement. La bande continue(16) de tissu textile est dirigée sous haute tension autour de paires de tubes (12, 14) tournants, de diamètre réduit, et revêtus de particules abrasives, lesquelles sont de préférence des particules arrondies (sans facettes) de carbure de tungstène. Les tubes (rouleaux) (12, 14) tournent à différentes vitesses par rapport à la vitesse de la bande de tissu dans l'appareil. De préférence, le premier rouleau (12), qui est régressif, tourne à une vitesse inférieure à celle de la bande continue, tandis que le second rouleau (14), qui est progressif, tourne à une vitesse supérieure à celle de la bande continue. Ce processus et cet appareil permettent d'améliorer le conditionnement et le grattage d'une bande continue (16) de tissu et fournissent un procédé permettant d'accomplir ce traitement de tissu plus rapidement et plus efficacement.

Abstract: The invention pertains to a method for making a laminate comprising at least the following steps: placing a metal sheet on a form tool or a substrate, placing an adhesive layer on top of the first metal sheet, placing a second metal sheet on top of the adhesive layer such that at least one of the metal sheets overlaps at least one edge of the other metal sheet, applying heat and pressure to the thus obtained stack, where during the application of pressure at least one of the metal sheets is bent towards the plane of the other metal sheet. Thus, complicated structures can be optimized for a certain application and, besides, manufactured in one go using comparatively inexpensive tools.

Abstract: The invention relates to an ultrasonic measuring apparatus for determining the geometrical position of a boundary between two materials in a first material from a reference place, more particularly for wall thickness or fault testing. To enable even very thin-walled materials to be measured, the measuring apparatus isolates the reflected ultrasonic signals from the ultrasonic mixed signal received by the receiver, which consists of the ultrasonic signal reflected at the boundary to the first material and the ultrasonic signal reflected at the boundary to the second material, so that the time of impingement of the reflected signal is clearly determined for the determination of propagation time.

Abstract: An improved process for the continuous production of poly(vinyl alcohol) which
involves purifying poly(vinyl acetate) paste exiting from a polymerization reactor and
dissolving the substantially pure poly(vinyl acetate) in a hydrolytic alcohol-containing
solvent for subsequent saponification to produce poly(vinyl alcohol). Poly(vinyl acetate)
paste, containing poly(vinyl acetate), vinyl acetate, and solvent, is heated to a
temperature above the glass transition temperature but below a temperature which will
degrade the poly(vinyl acetate) and is fed into a flashing area of an extruding
devolatilization device. Vinyl acetate and solvent are flashed through vent ports in the
flashing area of the devolatilization device and can then be recycled to a polymerization
reactor, if desired. A substantially pure poly(vinyl acetate) melt, exiting the flashing area,
is conveyed to a mixing area of the devolatilization device where it is mixed with a
hydrolytic alcohol-containing solvent to form a solution for subsequent processing in a
saponification unit.
