Carbonaceous product may be generated using systems and methods provided herein. Carbon dioxide may be sequestered. The carbonaceous product may include carbon black.

An extruder system and a method for extruding cord reinforced extrudate, in particular for tire components, are provided. The extruder system includes an extruder head with flow channels for receiving an extrusion material from an extruder, a die for receiving the extrusion material from the flow channels, and a cord guide for guiding cords side-by-side in a cord plane into the die. The extruder head is provided with an insertion slot that extends in an insertion direction parallel to the cord plane through the extruder head. The flow channels debouch into the insertion slot at a flow area. The insertion slot is arranged for receiving the die and the cord guide in the insertion direction into a die position downstream of the flow area and a cord guide position upstream of the flow area, respectively, with respect to the insertion direction.

A method for sealing and inflating inflatable articles, in particular for sealing and inflating motor vehicle tires, wherein, by means of a compressor which is driven preferably by means of an electric motor, a sealing and pumping pressure is generated, wherein, by means of the sealing and pumping pressure, via a valve and distributor device for sealant and compressed gas and via compressed-air and sealant hoses between valve and distributor device and an entry valve or an inlet nozzle of the inflatable article, a sealant situated in a sealant vessel connected to the valve and distributor device is conveyed into the inflatable article and, at the same time, the inflatable article is inflated to a predefined operating pressure, wherein, by configuration of the corresponding parameters, of the sealant and of the device, in or downstream of the entry valve/the inlet nozzle, the sealant is at least partially atomized to form an aerosol by virtue of the sealant or the sealant-air mixture being converted, in the entry valve or in the inlet nozzle, into a turbulent flow with a Reynolds number Re≥22300.

The invention relates to a preform device for positioning extruded rubber mixtures, characterized in that the preform device consists of an inlet module (2) and an outlet module (3), wherein both the inlet module (2) and the outlet module (3) each have a base surface (11, 12) and a contact face (19, 21) opposite the base surface (11, 12, 13), and wherein the surface of the contact face (19, 21) of the inlet module (2) is smaller than the surface of the base surface (11, 12) of the inlet module (2). The invention also relates to an extruder mold system for molding extruded rubber mixtures into a complete rubber element (40), having the preform device and at least one final forming device, and to a corresponding extruder system (22).

The invention provides a apparatus for reworking of non-vulcanised rubber or de-vulcanized rubber from a rubber component, preferably a rubber tire, to produce recycled rubber. The apparatus comprises a gear pump configured to receive and filter the rubber to produce filtered rubber and a mixer-extruder configured to homogenize and extrude the filtered rubber to produce recycled rubber.

Continuous thermal processing of used or damaged tires carried out by thermal decomposition in a closed vertically oriented reaction space in the presence of a controlled flow of air blowing into it from below, by the action of flue gases passing from the tires ignited at the bottom of the reaction space upwards, along the tires stacked and continuously replenished in the reaction space to form their thermal decomposition products, discharged from the reaction space to be further processed.

Provided are a rubber sheet member joining device and method. At least one opposing surface of a pair of gripping parts is provided with a contact member having a contact surface projecting toward an other opposing surface of the pair of gripping parts; the pair of gripping parts grip ranges in proximity to end surfaces in a state in which end surfaces project from the one opposing surface toward the other opposing surface; the total of end surface projection amounts of the end surfaces from the opposing surfaces is set to be a predetermined length larger than a separation distance between the opposing surfaces when the contact member is sandwiched between the opposing surfaces; and by bringing the contact member into a state of being sandwiched between the opposing surfaces, the movement of the gripping parts in proximity to each other is stopped and the end surfaces are joined together.

A method for sealing and inflating inflatable articles, in particular for sealing and inflating motor vehicle tires, wherein, by means of a compressor which is driven preferably by means of an electric motor, a sealing and pumping pressure is generated, wherein, by means of the sealing and pumping pressure, via a valve and distributor device for sealant and compressed gas and via compressed-air and sealant hoses between valve and distributor device and an entry valve or an inlet nozzle of the inflatable article, a sealant situated in a sealant vessel connected to the valve and distributor device is conveyed into the inflatable article and, at the same time, the inflatable article is inflated to a predefined operating pressure, wherein, by configuration of the corresponding parameters, of the sealant and of the device, in or downstream of the entry valve/the inlet nozzle, the sealant is at least partially atomized to form an aerosol by virtue of the sealant or the sealant-air mixture being converted, in the entry valve or in the inlet nozzle, into a turbulent flow with a Reynolds number R.sub.e≥2300.

The invention relates to a compressor assembly for supplying pressure medium to a tire cavity of a vehicle wheel that can be mounted on a wheel hub which can be mounted on a wheel carrier so as to be rotatable about an axis of rotation. The compressor assembly includes a wheel mount-side transmission component or the hub-side transmission component, which includes a cylindrical cam.

The invention relates to a vehicle with a compressor assembly for supplying pressure medium to a tire cavity of a tire of the vehicle wheel mounted on a wheel hub, wherein the wheel hub is mounted on a wheel carrier so as to be rotatable about an axis of rotation. The compressor assembly is located at or in the wheel hub mount.
