A pipe-liner system for lining a pipe and methods of use thereof. A continuous, eversible extended liner is formed from a pipe-liner attached to an extender-tube via a substantially leak-proof connection there between. Lengths of the extender-tube and the pipe-liner are each chosen so that the pipe-liner is caused to be accurately positioned within the pipe upon everting the extended liner into the pipe by a pressurized fluid. The pipe-liner is held against an interior surface of the pipe being lined by inserting an inflatable bladder into the extended liner and filling the bladder with pressurized fluid. When a resin in the pipe-liner has hardened, the bladder is removed and the extender-tube is detached from the pipe-liner.

A surface arrangement for a conveyor roller adapted for use in a conveyor system configured to support and move a conveyor medium, and a conveyor roller incorporating same. The surface arrangement has a cylindrical rotatable supporting surface, at least one shear stop member extending outwardly from the rotatable supporting surface, at least one lagging member positioned on the rotatable supporting surface, and a bond between the at least one lagging member and the rotatable supporting surface. The at least one lagging member is positioned on the rotatable supporting surface, with at least a portion of one end of the at least one lagging member abutting at least a portion of the side surface of the at least one shear stop member. The at least one shear stop member is adapted to resist movement of the at least one abutting lagging member in at least one direction along the circumference of the rotatable supporting surface to reduce a shear force exerted on the bond when the conveyor roller is in use. Methods of making and repairing the surface arrangement are also disclosed.

A method of making an aircraft blade is provided. The method comprises the steps of: assembling two or more fibre-reinforced thermoplastic composite parts into a blade assembly; and welding the fibre-reinforced thermoplastic composite parts together utilising an additional thermoplastic located at least at locations where the parts will abut when assembled. The additional thermoplastic has a melting or softening temperature lower than a melting temperature of each of the fibre-reinforced thermoplastic composite parts being assembled. The step of welding comprises heating the blade assembly to a temperature above the melting/softening temperature of the additional thermoplastic and below the melting temperature of each of the fibre-reinforced thermoplastic composite parts so as to melt/soften the additional thermoplastic and thereby weld the fibre-reinforced thermoplastic composite parts together to form the aircraft blade.

A pipe lining apparatus having a settable, resin-impregnated reinforcement filament that is helically wound onto the inner surface of a pipe or pipe lining by an inverted filament winding apparatus, the apparatus having multiple spools and applicator arms to retain and apply the filament. The applicator arms may be aligned circumferentially or axially.

A repair element for a formwork board that includes a housing. The repairing element comprising a first member made of thermoplastic material and a second member made of porous material, wherein the second member acts as a support of the first member, the first member being arranged on the second member. The first member has a height that partially projects from the board once the repairing element is fixed in the housing, the first member being suitable for filling a cavity existing between the repairing element and the housing once the repairing element is placed in the housing after being at least partially melted, thus sealing the attachment between the repairing element and the board. Repairing method of the board with the repairing element.

A method may comprise applying a first adhesive to a cavity of a bond panel, the cavity defined by a raised body portion of the bond panel, inserting an acoustic insert assembly in the cavity, the acoustic insert assembly being secured in the cavity by the first adhesive, and securing edges of the acoustic insert assembly to the raised body portion of the bond panel with a second adhesive to create a seamless interface between the edges and the raised body portion.

A tool is configured to have a changeable shape. The tool comprises a thermoplastic polymeric material, resistive heating elements within the thermoplastic polymeric material, and a flexible casing encapsulating the thermoplastic polymeric material and resistive heating elements.
