Disclosed is a method of making an extensible sculpture including providing a plurality of flexible material sheets; cutting each of the plurality of flexible material sheets to form a plurality of at least three sculptural pieces; arranging the sculptural pieces in a predetermined order; defining a first set of connection columns on the top face of the first sculptural piece; using a first connector to fixedly connect the bottom face of the second sculptural piece to the top face of the first sculptural piece at the first set of connection columns; defining a second set of connection columns on the top face of the second sculptural piece; and using a second connector to fixedly connect the bottom face of the third sculptural piece to the top face of the second sculptural piece at the second set of connection columns.

A combined material honeycomb core and methods of manufacture are presented. The combined material honeycomb core comprises a plurality of cells arranged in columns and rows formed of multiple materials, the multiple materials comprising a metallic material and either a second metallic material or a non-metallic material.

A high-speed, cold laminating system includes a lamination unit for inline use connected with a paper feeder supplying at least 30 ppm. The lamination unit further includes a set of unheated motor-driven laminating pressure rollers along a laminating path, and a cutter between the rollers and an exit. A diverter gate passes the paper sheets to the laminating path or to the exit without passing along the laminating path. The system includes a controller to control the motor, the diverter gate, and functions of the lamination unit. The controller is programmed to control the motor to pause the pressure rollers with a leading sheet therein while a subsequent sheet moves toward the pressure rollers so a laminated spacing distance between a trailing edge of the leading sheet and a leading edge of the subsequent sheet to equal a prescribed spacing distance.

The disclosure provides a method for fabricating a cantilever section in a structure, which includes providing a structure comprising a substrate, a compliant layer and a sacrificial layer therebetween; cutting part-way through the substrate to create an at least one linear partial cut; releasing the sacrificial layer from the structure; and breaking the substrate along the at least one linear partial cut to generate a cantilever section in a substrate.

A sealing profile can be used for an edge joint formed between a floor and adjacent cladding of drywall. The sealing profile has a base body for sealing the edge joint. The base body has an upper portion close to the cladding and an opposite bottom portion. The upper portion has an upper side which forms a support for the cladding. The sealing profile also has a lateral fastening portion running towards the base body for fastening the sealing profile to a lateral holding rail of the drywall. The fastening portion is only firmly connected to the base body via the bottom portion. The base body also has a side surface which is directly opposite the fastening portion and which is not connected to the opposite region of the fastening portion. Drywall can contain such a sealing profile.

A fire-protecting insulation product has air-laid mineral wool fibres and a binder. The binder is the result of curing a binder composition comprising at least one hydrocolloid. The product further comprises a particulate endothermic material.

A transversely extensible continuous elastic laminates includes a continuous elastic tape sandwiched between two continuous webs, and at least one row of tabs extending transversely outside the two webs, wherein the tabs are made of a non-woven material and have respective micro-hook formations integrally formed in the non-woven material forming the tabs.

A method and an apparatus for manufacturing, in a continuous flow, face protection masks including a mask body and two U-shaped elastic thread portions, which are formed by bending respective elastic thread portions retained by a group of sectors including a fixed sector and two movable sectors rotatable with respect to the fixed sector.

Among other things a method including releasing a discrete component from an interim handle and depositing a discrete component on a handle substrate, attaching the handle substrate to the discrete component, and removing the handle substrate from the discrete component.

A lamination apparatus is adapted to laminate an encapsulation glue and a panel. The lamination apparatus includes a lower mold, an upper mold, and a cutting knife. The lower mold has a lamination area and a peripheral area adjacent to the lamination area. The panel is adapted to be retained in the lamination area. The upper mold is movable close to or away from the lower mold, and includes an encapsulation glue fixing part. The encapsulation glue fixing part is adapted to fix the encapsulation glue to the upper mold. The cutting knife is disposed in the peripheral area of the lower mold, and is located in a horizontal direction between the lamination area of the lower mold and the encapsulation glue fixing part of the upper mold. In addition, a lamination method is also disclosed.
