Abstract: A method and apparatus for feeding resiliently compressed articles into a form/fill/seal machine. The method includes steps of receiving horizontally compressed articles into an infeed end of a pair of conveyor belts (60, 62), continuously conveying the compressed articles to a discharge end, continuously forming a plastic film around the pair of cantilevered conveyor belts without the stack of articles exerting expansion force against the plastic film, forming and sealing a closed tube, and releasing the stack of compressed articles into the closed tube only after the seal has sufficient strength to maintain the stack of articles compressed. The pair of conveyor belts (60, 62) has rigid conveyor backing members (44, 46) and cantilevered ends (48, 50) with a discharge pulley (54, 58) mounted at each cantilevered end. At least one tie bar connects the backing members near the cantilevered ends in order to resist the expansion force of one or more stacks of resiliently compressed articles between the conveyor belts.

Patent CA-2241659-C (CA)
Inventor: KOPP LORENZ
IPC: C25D21/18
Filed: 1997-01-10
Granted: 2006-03-14
Abstract: The invention relates to a method for maintaining constant concentrations of substances contained in an electrolytic treatment bath, preferably in baths with aqueous solutions. In order to regenerate the continual depletion of chemicals, substance concentrates are added to the baths according to known methods. The rapid increase in concentrations of damaging substances in the processing solution is disadvantageous. In order to reduce this build-up, a further metering method is known, namely the continuous replacement of bath solution by creating a bath overflow. The addition of bath solution with the bath concentration is balanced out by the overflow. As a consequence of evaporation and entrainment this method also leads to the fact that the operating concentration cannot be maintained for a long period of time in chemically critical baths. With the invention, this problem is resolved by continuous or intermittent removal of bath solution in a defined quantity and addition of fresh bath solution preferably in the same quantity. The changes in the concentrations of substances in the bath occurring through evaporation and entrainment are compensated for completely independently of the metering.

Abstract: An apparatus (10) for making paper. The apparatus (10) comprises a felt (14) and a pattern layer (18) joined to the felt (14). The felt (14) has a relatively high UV absorbance. Such a high UV absorbance prevents the actinic radiation applied to cure the pattern layer (18) from scattering when the radiation penetrates the surface of the pattern layer (18). By limiting the scattering of radiation beneath the surface of the pattern layer (18), extraneous cured pattern layer material is minimized in the regions of the felt (14) where it is desired not to have pattern layer material.
