The invention relates to a device for producing three-dimensional models in a continuous process, comprising a build surface which has a first end in the direction of movement and a second end in the direction of movement, at least one dosing device and at least one solidification unit, characterized in that the build surface is designed to transport heavy components, and the components are transportable over the build surface essentially without distortion, and also comprising a method therefor.

A reel for carrying cable, wire or other wound materials is provided. The reel comprises a paperboard drum and molded flanges. The drum forms a friction fit with a hub located on each flange and forms an adhesive bond at an annular groove defined by each flange. The friction fit and the adhesive bond secure the flange to the drum sufficiently to eliminate the need for bolts or other attachment means.

A honeycomb structure (110) includes intersecting porous walls (106). Inlet channels (108i) and outlet channels (108o) are formed by the intersecting porous walls (106), wherein the inlet channels (108i) comprise inlet hydraulic diameters (HDi) and the outlet channels (108o) comprise outlet hydraulic diameters (HDo). The inlet channels (108i) comprise inlet corners (220i) with inlet corner radii (Ri) and the outlet channels (108o) comprise outlet corners (2200) with outlet corner radii (Ro). A centerpost (124) is defined by adjacent opposing inlet corners (220i) of two of the inlet channels (108i) and adjacent opposing outlet corners (2200) of two of the outlet channels (108o). A first diagonal length (D1) is a shortest distance between the opposing outlet corners (220o) of the two outlet channels (108o) and a second diagonal length (D2) is a shortest distance between the opposing inlet corners (220i) of the two inlet channels (108i). The honeycomb structure (110) has certain aspect ratios D1:D2 depending on hydraulic diameter ratios HDi:HDo.

Provided are: a main body (45) made of resin; a fastening counterpart (51) formed integrally with the main body; a metal load-receiving member (43) having an embedded part (46) embedded in the main body, and a shaft part (47) extending from the embedded part; and a reinforcement part (53, 55) having a rib (54, 56) and provided in the main body.

An acoustic matching layer where the thickness is defined by a single layer of defined mono-disperse particles. The layer comprises a polymer base in which mono-disperse particles are embedded. The mono-disperse particles can be coated with a solid material that participates in the definition of the acoustic impedance of the layer. The polymer base can include smaller solid particles that participates in the definition of the acoustic impedance of the layer. The invention also provides a method of manufacturing.

A molding process includes the operation of placing insulation material comprising fibers and binder on the fibers in a mold cavity. The molding process further includes the operation of transferring heat to the insulation material to cause the binder to cure.

An objective of the present invention is to provide a method for producing a cork stopper by compression molding cork grains, which can provide a cork stopper excellent in sealability and safety. There is provided a method for producing a cork stopper, comprising: mixing cork grains and an adhesive; compression molding the mixture to give an intermediate; and then heating the intermediate to expand the cork grains.

A method for soil remediation by molecular binding for producing beneficial use determined polymer concrete product that removes hazardous pollutants from a quantity of contaminated soil. Hazardous pollutants are identified though chemical analysis in order to select at least corresponding polymer and at least one corresponding binder for each hazardous pollutant present in the contaminated soil. The at least one polymer chemically bonds with the hazardous pollutant in order to neutralize the hazardous pollutant within the contaminated soil to form a polymer concrete product. The polymer concrete product is then used as a concrete substitute for construction applications.

A molding process includes the operation of placing insulation material comprising fibers and binder on the fibers in a mold cavity. The molding process further includes the operation of transferring heat to the insulation material to cause the binder to cure.

A vibration plate manufacturing device includes: a defibration unit which defibrates a material including fibers and generates a defibrated material formed of fibers having a fibril area of 0.5% to 2.0%; a mixing unit which mixes a binding material for binding the fibers to each other, into the defibrated material; a second web formation unit which accumulates a mixture mixed by the mixing unit; and a molding unit and a heating unit which perform a molding process including pressing and heating on the second web to obtain a molded product.
