A soap reforming assembly includes a housing and a soap collection unit that is coupled to the housing for collecting and transporting pieces of soap when the pieces of soap are dropped into the housing. A heating element is coupled to the housing and the heating element heats the soap collection unit to melt the soap pieces into a fluid soap. A forming unit is positioned within the housing for receiving the fluid soap from the soap collection unit when the heating element produces the fluid soap. The forming unit cools and forms the fluid soap into a bar for bathing. A drawer is slidably positioned in the housing and the drawer receives the bar of soap from the forming unit. The drawer is positionable in an open position having the drawer extending outwardly from the housing to dispense the bar of soap.

An apparatus and method of manufacturing a display apparatus are provided. The apparatus for manufacturing a display apparatus includes a support; a first stage arranged on the support, the first stage being configured to move linearly and to receive a film member thereon, a second stage spaced apart from the first stage, and arranged on the support, the second stage being configured to move linearly and to receive a display panel thereon. an adhesive belt spaced from the support, the adhesive belt being configured to selectively adhere to the film member, a tension maintenance portion arranged on the support, the tension maintenance portion being configured to ascend and descend and to maintain a tension of the adhesive belt, and a pressing portion under the tension maintenance portion, the pressing portion being configured to move linearly and to press the adhesive belt toward one of the first stage and the second stage.

3D printers include a feed stepper motor coupled to an extruder, a platen positioned adjacent the extruder, a platen support coupled to a platen lifter, and directional stepper motors, wherein the extruder comprises an air scoop, extruder nozzle and heater, wherein the heater is positioned to heat the extruder nozzle and air to provide heated air and the air scoop is configured and positioned to route the heated air which is emitted adjacent the extruder nozzle directly onto the surface of a workpiece positioned on the platen. A feed stepper motor may include a hollow bore motor shaft. A substrate made of the same material being extruded may be provided. A method of 3D printing employs such a substrate.

The present invention relates to pharmaceutical dosage forms, for example to a tamper resistant dosage form including an opioid analgesic, and processes of manufacture, uses, and methods of treatment thereof.

The present invention relates to an external cooling system for a molten film tube produced by a blown film tubular extrusion process, comprised of a divergent cooling element with a divergent cooling interface containing a cooling gas deflector spaced adjacent to the molten film tube and providing an expelled cooling gas (i) in a path opposing the flow of the molten film tube toward a first exit gap and (ii) in a path with the flow of the molten film tube toward a second exit gap. A minimum gap between the divergent cooling interface and the molten film tube occurs at the first exit gap and/or the second exit gap. Advantageously, the divergent cooling interface is provided with one or more compound angles to maximize stability and cooling efficiency. Additionally, multiple cooling elements can preferably be arranged in a stackable configuration to achieve higher throughput rates. Operation is characterized by improved film holding forces without the presence of high noise levels or detrimental vibration, flutter, and drag. Additionally, employing simplified single air delivery channels, and a stackable design, significantly reduces complexity and manufacturing costs.

The present invention relates to an external cooling system for a molten film tube produced by a blown film tubular extrusion process, comprised of one or more enclosures with one or more respective cavities that directly receive a portion of cooling gas emanating from one or more associated cooling elements. Each enclosure includes a port containing a variable exhaust device and optional flow buffer, acting to maintain a pressure differential between the cavity and an adjacent inside volume of the molten film tube, adjustable to optimize molten film tube stability cooling element efficiency and spaced apart dimension between cooling elements. Significant increases in production speeds are achieved with improved film quality over an increased range of tubular film sizes, down to a minimum size which occurs when operating at zero internal to molten film tube pressure.
