A flat laminate element made of thermoplastic is hot-formed in a two-stage method. In a first stage, the flat laminate which includes film(s) and/or panels(n) is placed on a flat frame-shaped pallet and is heated to a forming temperature in a heating zone between two flat heat screens in a contactless manner. The edge zone of the hot flat laminate element lies on the pallet such that the laminate piece cannot be clamped in a first laminate direction but rather can be slide on the pallet in this direction. Two non-flat rigid contours which are identical or largely identical act on two opposing parallel laminate edge sections uniaxially and perpendicularly to the laminate plane and only in the first laminate direction, i.e. monodirectionally, and shape the entire heated laminate element into a monodirectionally molded blank.

A heat curable, circular knitted fabric includes reinforcing and meltable resin fibers that can be cured to form a more rigid material form. In one embodiment, the fabric includes a core spun yarn, wherein the core may be made from glass, carbon, basalt, aramid or metal. The wrap surrounding the core may include resin type fibers such as Poly(p-phenylene sulfide) PPS, Polyetherimide (PEI), Polyether ether ketone (PEEK), Polysulfone (PES), Polyphthalamide (PPA), nylon, polyester, or polypropylene.

A method and apparatus for constructing a tubular assembly 40 comprising an inner portion (24) and a further portion (23) surrounding the inner portion. The inner portion (24) comprises reinforcement (37) and the further portion (23) being formed from a strip (50) of material comprising two opposed longitudinal marginal side portions (53). The apparatus comprises an assembly station (220) comprising a wall (253). The apparatus comprises means for advancing the inner portion (21) along a first path (231) extending passed the wall (253), and means for advancing the strip (50) along a second path (232) and causing the strip to encircle the wall (253) and thereby wrap about and surround the inner portion (21). The apparatus further comprises means (321) for introducing resinous binder into the reinforcement (37) as the strip (50) is being wrapped about the inner portion (21).

The present application discloses a bottle manufacturing method and a bottle, which comprises steps of: manufacturing a protection layer; printing an artwork on a surface of the protection layer; manufacturing a transparent layer; laminating the protection layer and the transparent layer having the artwork printed; arranging the protection layer and the transparent layer on a bottle body to make the artwork locate between the protection layer and the transparent layer. By printing the artwork between the protection layer and the transparent layer, the present application provides the artwork a good protection to prevent the artwork from worn, and makes the product a relatively high decoration quality.

A system and method of retroactively lining a vertical trash chute in a building. A tubular fabric liner is provided having a first open end and a second open end. The tubular fabric liner is infused with a resin. A first plug assembly is attached to the first open end. The tubular fabric liner is pulled through the vertical trash chute to position the tubular fabric liner in the trash chute. A second plug assembly is attached to the second open end. The tubular fabric liner is inflated. As it expands, the tubular fabric liner presses against the interior of the trash chute. This condition is maintained until the resin cures and bonds the tubular fabric liner to the trash chute. Once cured, the plug assemblies are removed, the tubular fabric liner is trimmed, and trash chute access openings are cut through the cured liner.

A hand-held squeegee for applying or installing wraps and/or films to surfaces. The hand-held squeegee includes a blade portion, a handle portion, a ring loop portion, a tool storage pocket for storing a knife, and hooks for wrapping film around the edge of a surface. The ring loop portion can be slipped onto a user's finger so that the squeegee can be conveniently secured to the back of the user's hand when it is not actively in use by the user or when the user is using another tool.

Disclosed is a film pasting device for electronic terminals. The device includes: a fixing seat provided with a containing groove for containing an electronic terminal, the containing groove being provided with a first mounting seat and a second mounting seat respectively, and the first mounting seat and the second mounting seat being provided with magnetic positioning members; and an adhesive film provided with positioning parts. Mounting holes are provided at the fixing seat, and a protective film can be directly aligned with the electronic terminal during pasting; and the first mounting seat and the second mounting seat are arranged in a structure higher than the containing groove, so that the adhesive film can be prevented from being pasted to the electronic terminal when being placed, a defective rate of film pasting is reduced, film pasting is simple, production cost is low, and the device is convenient to use.

A steam generator for use with a liner assembly for pipeline repair or reinforcement, includes: a water heater configured to heat water to generate steam; a water feed conduit configured to convey water to the water heater; an air heater configured to generate heated air; an air supply conduit configured to convey pressurized air to the air heater; a heated air supply conduit configured to convey heated air from the air heater to the water heater to yield a steam-air mixture; and an output conduit configured to convey the steam-air mixture from the water heater. An automated steam generator system including the steam generator is also described.

Provided is a protection film attaching apparatus according to the present invention comprising: a housing; a jig installed on an upper surface of the housing and fixing one side of a protection film; a gripper installed on one side of the housing and elastically supporting another side of the protection film vertically; and a film attaching part installed in the housing to move in a lengthwise direction of the jig so as to pressurize and attach the protection film onto a glass surface of an electronic device. According to the description above, when a protection film is attached onto a surface of glass having curved edges, air bubbles are not generated on the surface of the glass, and an attaching process becomes easier and more effectively done.

A method for relining a pipeline includes providing and using a composition that includes (a) a resin crosslinkable by action of a photoinitiator that is activated with actinic light, (b) a resin crosslinkable by action of a co-hardening compound; (c) a photo-initiator compound that can be photoactivated by irradiation with actinic light; and (d) a co-hardener compound added before use that is a semilatent co-hardener or a co-hardener at room temperature. A kit for relining a pipeline according to this method includes (1) a container containing (a), (b) and (c); (2) a container containing (d); (3) a substrate for impregnation with the composition resulting from mixing the contents of container (1) and container (2); and, optionally, (4) a source of actinic light and a generator of a flow of gas or liquid at adjustable pressure.
