A method is provided for producing a locally-reinforced profile component. The method includes the following steps: providing a primary profile to be reinforced which is made of fiber-reinforced plastic; providing a secondary profile made of plastic for local reinforcement of the primary profile; arranging the secondary profile on an outer surface of the primary profile to create the profile component; heating the profile component (IO); integrally-bonded connecting of the primary profile and the secondary profile by applying pressure to an outer surface and simultaneous use of a counter pressure to apply pressure to an inner surface of the profile component.

A stacked tube heat exchanger consisting of tubes that are affixed to a header or headers that are additively manufactured.

The invention, belonging to the field of biological treatment of pollutants and functional materials, presents a method for the preparation of biofilm carrier with biochar fixed by thermoplastic resin. Extrusion grade polyethylene/polypropylene particles are used as the basic material. One or some combination of plant biochar, straw biochar, rice husk biochar, shell biochar, excess sludge and animal waste biochar are used as the functional material. The biofilm carrier with biochar fixed by thermoplastic resin is prepared by the screw extrusion process, which is a simple, flexible and controllable method, and possesses strong adaptability. The reactor with these biofilm carriers has high removal efficiency of refractory organic pollutants.

Techniques for integrating a machine-readable matrix with a component of a mechanical structure using three-dimensional (3-D) printing are disclosed. Such techniques include generating at least one data model representing the component, and projecting a matrix pattern identifying one or more features of the component onto a selected surface portion of the component to produce a modified data model for use as an input to a 3-D printer.

A method of manufacturing an in-mold decorative molded article includes supplying an in-mold transfer foil to a metal mold, injecting and cooling a molding resin and taking out an molded article formed of the molding resin cooled and cured in the metal mold in which a clear layer and a transfer layer having a decorative figure in the in-mold transfer foil are integrated on the surface by opening the mold, molding the molded article integrally with a cutting portion not necessary for a target product inside the metal mold by the molding resin at an outer periphery of the product and arranging a boundary of a printing region of the clear layer in the in-mold transfer foil in the cutting portion so as to be larger than the outer periphery of the product.

A tool for manufacturing a cap for a container comprises a blade set that includes a plurality of knives. The knives are configured to make incisions in a cap having a main body having a top plate and a circular sidewall. The top plate has a top surface, wherein two opposite sides of the circular sidewall circularly connect to each other, one periphery of the circular sidewall connects to one surface of the top plate forming a closed end, and the other periphery of the circular sidewall at the opposite side of the closed end forms an opened end and a ring member, which is located at the opened end of the main body. There is a first tab on the ring member and a second tab on the sidewall.

A shaping material extruding hollow module fabricating equipment of foamed shaping material having enclosing veneer comprises: a primary machinery, including a shaping material foaming mold allowing a foamed shaping material to be foamed, and disposed with a thermostat device and a blowing pipe; a shaping mold of formation platform, disposed with cooling water passageways and vacuum air passageways; a vacuum shaping mold of formation platform, disposed with cooling water passageways and vacuum air passageways; a shaping water tank mold for flattening the surface of shaping material, disposed with a water tank, a vacuum pump and a shaping block; a secondary machinery, disposed with a shaping material enclosing mold allowing the outer periphery of foamed shaping material to be enclosed by an enclosing veneer of non-foamed plastic and including a thermostat device; a towing device; a cutting device; and a shaping material storage rack adjacently disposed with a detecting device.

A system for refilling a stick product, such as lipstick or deodorant, in a propel-repel dispenser allows the reuse of the propel-repel mechanism. The stick product refill is shaped and dimensioned to be inserted into the open end of the dispenser and to attach to the receptacle that holds the stick product after the used product has been removed. Attachment of the refill to the stick receptacle is by an attachment means on the outer surface of an anchor cap enclosing the distal end of the refill and/or on the receptacle itself. Once secured to the receptacle, the refill can be advanced and retracted by the propel-repel mechanism so that it protrudes when in use and is withdrawn with the dispenser to protect it when not in use.

A stretcher for processing a film is described. In particular, stretcher receives a film, graps edge portions of the film, conveys the film in a machine direction, and moves the opposing edge portions along diverging; substantially parabolic paths to form a stretched film.

A high-moisture-permeability, microporous plastic film randomly having a lot of recesses having different opening diameters and depths, with clefts formed in the recesses, is produced by pressing a first pattern roll randomly having a lot of high-hardness, fine particles having sharp edges on a roll body surface to a flat-surface metal roll, to produce an anvil roll randomly having a lot of recesses on a metal roll surface; arranging a second pattern roll randomly having a lot of high-hardness, fine particles having sharp edges on a roll body surface oppositely to the anvil roll; and passing a plastic film through a gap between the second pattern roll and the anvil roll.
