A through-hole extends from the second panel support to the first panel support, and the diaphragm is disposed on the through-hole.

A core metal includes, on an outer circumference thereof, a plurality of attachment surfaces to which a plurality of strings are attached, and a plurality of guided portions are formed along an axial direction of the core metal and disposed between two of the attachment surfaces. A string supply device includes a string supply unit that supplies the strings to the outer circumference of the core metal, an attaching unit that arranges and attaches the strings on the attachment surfaces of the core metal in a circumferential direction of the core metal, and a plurality of guiding units, in contact with the guided portions of the core metal, which guides the core metal.

The adhering device of the present application includes a chamber; a carrying platform having a groove formed thereon; a pressing block assembly for supporting the flexible display panel, and fitting the flexible display panel toward the curved cover plate at a preset rising speed; a clamp assembly for holding the flexible display panel, and when the flexible display panel is adhered to the curved cover plate at a preset ascending speed, the clamp assembly starts to rotate until the flexible display panel and the curved cover plate completely adhere together with the display panel separation.

A molding system for applying insulation to a pipe employs an elongate mold in which to receive the pipe. A mold adjustment mechanism can adjust a shape of the mold to correspond to a shape of the pipe as the pipe sags in the mold cavity. In a method of insulating the pipe, the shape of the mold is adjusted to correspond to the shape of the sagging pipe and curable material is imparted into the mold while maintaining the adjusted shape of the mold. The elongate mold can include at least one double-walled mold member with an inner form wall, an outer jacket, and a plurality of radial supports that support the outer jacket on the inner form wall in radially spaced apart relation therewith.

Methods and apparatuses for mounting a material (1) on a carrier (6) are provided. To this end, the material is arranged on a porous layer (2) of an air bearing arrangement (2, 3).

Molded pulp containers with fused junctions and methods of making of same are provided. The present invention provides a pulp container, comprising a molded pulp body, wherein the body comprising a bottom and at least one side wall forming a wherein the at least one side wall comprising a upper rim, a neck, wherein the neck comprising a upper closure part and a lower rim, a fused junction, wherein a part of the upper rim of the at least one sidewall of the body and a part of the lower rim of the neck are aligned and fused together. The fused junction may be formed by ultrasonic welding.

The invention relates to a device for laminating a laminating foil element onto a component having a profiled lamination plane using a lamination tool, by means of which tool the laminating foil element is laminated onto the component, the lamination tool comprising a first tool half and a second tool half, and the device comprising a deflection arrangement for deflecting portions of the laminating foil element out of the profiled lamination plane.

An apparatus for manufacturing a surface-layered part includes: a main support that supports a surface layer member to be placed under a base member; a pulling device arranged at a periphery of the main support, wherein the pulling device includes a pulling member that pulls an edge of the surface layer member outward with respect to the support member; a base member clamping device that fixedly clamps the surface layer member, having been pulled outward by the pulling member, against the main support via the base member placed over the surface layer member; and a relieving device that separates the pulling member from the edge of the surface layer member to allow the edge of the surface layer member to wrap around the edge of the base member by an elastic restoring force of the surface layer member, thereby integrating them.

A laminating apparatus for a curved screen including a base, an elastic component, a backing plate, and a flexible pressing mold, where the backing plate is arranged above the base, the elastic component is connected to the backing plate, the flexible pressing mold covers the backing plate, and a top of the flexible pressing mold is arranged as a curved surface adapted to a shape of a screen; and the base includes a main body and two side beams connected to two sides of the main body, the side beams are higher than the main body in a vertical direction, the side beams are provided with grooves and supporting parts extending along length directions of respective side beams, and two sides of the flexible pressing mold extend outward to cover the supporting parts and reach into the grooves.
