WOVEN IRRIGATION TUBING, APPARATUS AND METHOD OF MAKING SAME
20220372674 · 2022-11-24 · ·

Woven irrigation tubing comprises a woven, extrusion coated & laminated tube formed of a high density polyethylene (HDPE) outer layer, a low density polyethylene (LDPE) middle layer and a linear low density polyethylene (LLDPE) inner layer. The finished tubing is treated for ultraviolet resistance. The tubing is tied off at a distal end with a proximal end connected to a pressurized irrigation source. Watering holes are created in the tubing at spaced intervals and the resulting water streams are directed into parallel plowed furrows. The tubing is completely recyclable. The tubing is formed by manufacturing tape for the woven outer tubing cover, stretching the tape along its length to strengthen it, weaving the outer layer from the tape, flattening the woven outer layer, extrusion coating each surface of the outer layer with LDPE, laminating the LLDPE inner layer to the LDPE, reversing and winding the tubing for storage and distribution.

A resin frame includes frame members combined into a frame shape that includes a corner portion, and a joint portion joining a pair of the frame members which are adjacent to each other at the corner portion. The joint portion includes an entire-surface welded portion, in which end surfaces of the pair of the frame members are welded to each other over an entire surface in a thickness direction of a plate portion of the frame members, and a partial welded portion, in which the end surfaces of the pair of the frame members are welded to each other on one side of the entire surface in the thickness direction while another side of the entire surface in the thickness direction is not welded. The entire-surface welded portion and the partial welded portion are present at different portions on an outer periphery of the joint portion.

Composite spars with integrated sacrificial surfaces

Composite assemblies are described that include composite spars that are co-cured with one or more sacrificial members on their flanges, forming an integrated sacrificial surface for the composite spars. In one embodiment, the composite assembly includes a composite spar having a web and flanges that project from sides of the web. The composite assembly further includes a sacrificial member of composite materials co-cured with the composite spar on an outer surface of at least one of the flanges. In addition, the sacrificial member has an outer surface that has been machined into conformance with an inner surface of at least one skin panel for an aircraft structure to form a contact surface with the at least one skin panel.

PELLETIZER APPARATUS

This pelletizer apparatus includes an observation unit for observing, from the outside of a housing chamber, a cut section of a synthetic resin cut by cutting teeth inside the housing chamber. The observation unit includes an optical system which sends an optical image of the cut section from the inside of the housing chamber to the outside of the housing chamber. Thus, with this pelletizer apparatus, the cut section can be visually checked clearly via the optical system.

A method for making a hard luggage case includes: a step of parison forming: including forming a parison; a step of blow molding including: forming the hard luggage case by subjecting the parison to a blow molding process, wherein the hard luggage case includes a cutting line to divide the hard luggage case into a first shell and a second shell; and a step of cutting including: cutting the hard luggage case along the cutting line to separate the first and second shells from each other. The step of blow molding is capable of reducing the manufacturing cost, while improving the life and marketing competiveness of the hard luggage case.

Flow regulator for extruder assembly

An extruder assembly includes a rolling assembly. An extrusion block includes a plurality of extruding ports that receive an extrudable material from the rolling assembly. A regulating mechanism is positioned within, above, or otherwise near each extruding port of the plurality of extruding ports. The regulating mechanism is operable with respect to the rolling assembly to modify a flow of extrudable material through each respective extruding port.

SYSTEM AND METHOD OF CONSTRUCTING COMPOSITE STRUCTURES WITHOUT TOOLING DAMS

The present invention includes methods of preparing a composite structure comprising: placing a first ply of a fibrous material with a curable material on a layup tool; adding one or more additional plies on the first ply, wherein each of the one or more additional plies has a perimeter that is different in size around the perimeter than a previous ply to form a taper; and curing the composite structure, wherein the curable material is selected to minimize, limit, control, or eliminate the outflow of the curable material along the perimeter of the composite structure during the curing step.

MEDICAL RUBBER STOPPER AND METHOD FOR PRODUCING MEDICAL RUBBER STOPPER

The present invention aims to provide a medical rubber stopper that is excellent in chemical resistance and airtightness while having good productivity. The present invention relates to a medical rubber stopper including: a disk-shaped head portion with a flange region; and a cylindrical leg portion protruding from the lower surface of the head portion and having a smaller diameter than the head portion, the lower surface of the flange region and the leg portion being laminated with an inert film, the lower surface of the flange region and/or the outer periphery of the leg portion being provided with an annular groove through which the base rubber is exposed.

Bladder Devices for Moving Components of Web Packaging Machines

A bladder device is for moving a component of a web packaging machine that forms and encloses a food product in a food product package made of webs of packaging material. The bladder device has a bladder and a nipple stub coupled to the bladder and having a first end configured to receive a gas and a second end configured to dispense the gas into the bladder to thereby inflate the bladder and move the component of the web packaging machine. A collar coupled to the nipple stub such that the bladder is sandwiched between the collar and the second end of the nipple stub. The second end of the nipple stub has a depression and the collar has a boss that is oriented towards the depression such that tightening the collar on the nipple stub forces the bladder into the depression and thereby forms a fluid tight seal.
