A plurality of scores (26, 30, 32, 34, 36, 38) are formed, as post-processing, at predetermined positions in an incomplete container lid formed with no scores.

A battery module having a fire-extinguisher, and more particularly to a battery module having a fire-extinguisher, the battery module including a plurality of battery cells stacked in a vertical direction or a horizontal direction and a fire-extinguisher located adjacent to each of the battery cells, wherein the fire-extinguisher includes a fire-extinguishing pack containing a fire-extinguishing material, a piezoelectric element interposed between the battery cell and the fire-extinguishing pack, and at least one breaking unit interposed between the battery cell and the fire-extinguishing pack.

A rotary cutting disc (10) comprising two coaxial mutually opposed disc-shaped elements (12a, 12b) each having a circumferential edge, wherein circumferential edges (14a, 14b) of the disc-shaped elements (12a, 12b) are joined together forming a cutting edge (16) of the cutting disc (10); wherein each of the disc-shaped elements (12a, 12b) comprises one or more at least partly curved elongated deformation lines (30), wherein the one or more deformation lines (30) have a radial distance from the centre (26) of the cutting disc (10) that increases along at least a part of the length of the deformation line (30). The rotary cutting disc (10) has an increased critical speed that allows improving the efficiency of a cutting operation with a cutting disc while maintaining acceptable levels of quality, cutting precision and safety.

A battery pack has a fire-extinguishing unit including a fire-extinguishing material, and more particularly to a battery module having a fire-extinguishing unit including a fire-extinguishing material, the battery module including a plurality of battery cells stacked in a vertical direction or a horizontal direction and a fire-extinguishing unit located adjacent to each of the battery cells, wherein the fire-extinguishing unit includes a fire-extinguishing pack containing a fire-extinguishing material and at least one breaking unit interposed between the battery cell and the fire-extinguishing pack.

Methods and equipment suitable for slicing products into lattice-type slices or chips. The methods and equipment utilize a knife assembly that includes a corrugated knife, a knife holder, and a clamp. A leading edge of the knife holder is defined by fingers and notches therebetween, and the fingers of the knife holder engage valleys in a first surface of the corrugated knife. The clamp is mated with a second surface of the corrugated knife and secures the corrugated knife to the knife holder. The clamp has a leading edge defined by fingers and notches therebetween. The fingers of the clamp engage valleys on the second surface of the corrugated knife, such that the fingers of the clamp are interdigitated with the fingers of the knife holder.

A cartridge adapted to secure reciprocating bread slicer blades including a rectangular frame having a planar surface, the frame having a plurality of pairs of opposed holders, each pair of the opposed holders adapted to releasably secure opposed ends of a corresponding bread slicer blade. The frame is adapted to secure a plurality of aligned bread slicer blades defining a plane offset from the frame planar surface. The frame is adapted to selectively maintain each of the plurality of aligned bread slicer blades in tension.

Knife assemblies and methods therefor that are adapted to be used with a cutting apparatus capable of producing a variety of shaped food products having large amplitudes, for example, sliced, shredded, and strip-cut food products. The knife assembly includes a primary blade having a corrugated shape to produce a large-amplitude food product slice having a periodic shape, and at least one tab blade assembled with or formed from the primary blade to cut a food product slice into strips.

A process and an apparatus for cutting a continuous rubber-covered belt in a process for building tyres for vehicle wheels, wherein the apparatus includes a cutting group, in turn comprising: a knife formed by a first half-part and a second half-part and movable along a cutting direction that is tilted with respect to a supply direction of a rubber-covered belt placed beneath the knife. The process includes: lifting a lifting element placed below the continuous rubber-covered belt and at the cutting zone, until a portion of rubber-covered belt is lifted, and lowering the single first-half part of the knife, making it slide with respect to the second half-part.

A blade (6) for underwater granulation of an extruded polymer, this blade comprising a plate (60) bounded by a contour including a cutting edge contour (61) having a first end (62) and a second end (63), and an outer contour (64) linking the first end (62) and the second end (63) of the cutting edge contour (61),

characterized in that the outer contour (64) comprises at least a first bearing portion (65) and a second bearing portion (66), the first bearing portion (65) and the second bearing portion (66) diverging while extending away from the cutting edge contour (61) and being configured to be received in a dovetail housing (13).

A printing device includes a transport roller performing a first transport that transports recording paper drawn from roll paper in a transport direction and a second transport that transports the recording paper in a direction opposite to the transport direction, a cutter having a first blade configured to move between an advanced position and a retracted position, and a second blade for cutting the recording paper together with the first blade moving from the retracted position to the advanced position, and a guide member provided downstream of the first blade in the transport direction and guiding the recording paper during the second transport.
