Abstract: A thermally-resistant composite fabric sheet for use as single or outer layer of protective garments, comprises inside and outside fabric layers (B,A) joined together by an array of connection lines (12,22,32) arranged so that the inside layer forms bubble-like pockets (16) when the outside layer (A) is caused to shrink by the external application of intense heat. The array of connection lines (12,22,32) is constituted by a plurality of isolated single connection lines (22) and/or by a plurality of isolated groups of connection lines (12,32), for example forming a series of Y or V shapes. The connection lines are arranged at different angles and are spaced apart from one another to leave gaps (42) where the two layers (A,B) are not connected to one another. These gaps (42) unite a continuous expanse (40) of the two unconnected layers that surrounds each isolated connection line (22) or group of connection lines (12,32). This continuous expanse (40) has a labyrinth-like structure delimited by the connection lines (12,22,32) at different angles, such that when a given area of the outside layer (A) is subjected to intense heat resulting in thermal shrinkage the inside layer (B) forms under the given area a series of self-closing bubble-like pockets (16) that form individually in discrete areas of the continuous expanse (40) between the connecting lines (12,22,32) and that are inhibited by the labyrinth-like structure from propagating along or across the sheet.

Abstract: A cross-linked thermoplastic polyurea is formed by heating a mixture containing a thermoplastic urethane base material, a monomeric and/or polymeric di-isocyanate comprising between 1 to 10% of the total weight of the mixture, and a diamine comprising between 1 to 10% of the total weight of the mixture. A thermoplastic polyurethane may be formed by substituting hydroquinone for the diamine. The mixture is heated to a temperature within the range of 250 ~F to 550 ~F. The heated mixture, which is flowable, is then injected into an injection molding device. The mixture is then cured at a temperature between 150 ~F to 250 ~F for a period of time between 2 and 36 hours. The cross-linked thermoplastic polyurethane/polyurea retains the excellent flowability characteristics of a thermoplastic urethane while the same time exhibits good abrasion, tensile strength, rebound, and compression set characteristics which are similar to those found in thermoset urethanes.

Title: Toothbrush and toothbrush head for said toothbrush
Inventor: HERZOG KARL
IPC: A46B9/04
Filed: 2006-12-20
Abstract: The present invention relates to a toothbrush head having a bristle support on which a bristle arrangement which has a large number of filaments is arranged, wherein at least one filament is tapered in the direction of its free end, and also to a toothbrush having a toothbrush head of this type. The invention proposes providing the tapered area at the tip of the at least one filament with a shape which deviates from a rotationally symmetrical form in order to maintain a high bending stiffness of the filament in one direction. According to the invention, the tapered area is in the form of a pressed-flat sharpened area, so that the filament has a greater bending stiffness in the region of the tapered area with respect to a first transverse axis than with respect to a second transverse axis which is at right angles to said first transverse axis. The filament cross section in the region of the pressed-flat sharpened area has a longitudinal axis or long main axis and a shorter transverse axis or short main axis, as a result of which the filament is provided with different geometric moments of inertia with respect to the two said axes in the region of the sharpened area. The pressed-flat sharpened area at the tip of the filament facilitates penetration into the interdental spaces, wherein the higher geometric moment of inertia of the broad side reduces bending here.
