A thermal bag comprising a thermal bag body and a thermal bag cover. The bag cover is connected to the bag body via a connecting member in an openable manner. The bag body comprises an inner bag (2), and outer bag (3) and a thermal layer (5) between the outer bag and the inner bag. A receiving cavity is provided inside the inner bag for receiving articles to be kept warm or cold. An inner bag platform is provided corresponding to an upper portion of the thermal layer between an upper side of the inner bag and an inner side of the outer bag. An abutting platform is provided corresponding to the inner bag platform on the bag cover which abuts against the inner bag platform when the bag cover is closed.

A bonded structure is disclosed which includes a pair of members facing with each other, and a protrusion integrally formed on at least one of the members, the protrusion protruding toward another one of the members, having a predetermined height, and abutting on the another one of the members to provide a gap holding an adhesive between facing surfaces of a pair of the members to adhere and fix the members and to have a thickness of the adhesive determined by the predetermined height.

A joining system includes a holding fixture assembly configured to hold a fuselage skin. The stringers are temporarily attached to the fuselage skin. The joining system includes an upper beam assembly including an upper beam and a lower beam assembly. The lower beam assembly includes a lower beam and at least one lower heating element. The holding fixture assembly is coupled to the upper beam assembly. The holding fixture assembly is coupled to the lower beam assembly. The upper beam is movable relative to the lower beam to clamp the at least one of the plurality of stringers and the fuselage skin together prior to and during welding.

The present disclosure is directed to methods for joining rotor blade components using thermoplastic welding. The method includes arranging a first thermoplastic component and a second thermoplastic component together at an interface, determining a size of a tolerance gap between the first and second components at the interface, placing a thermoplastic insert between the first and second components at the interface, the insert being larger than the tolerance gap, heating the insert and the first and second components such that the insert begins to flow so as to fill the tolerance gap between the first and second components, applying pressure to the interface such that the insert and the first and second blade components remain substantially in direct contact with each other at the interface, and welding the insert and the first and second components together at the interface, wherein the heat and the applied pressure between the insert and the first and second components at the interface maintain the insert and the first and second substantially in direct contact at the interface during welding.

A production method for a heat insulation bag with a more regular shape and less heat transfer, the method includes preparing a bag cover, an inner bag and an outer bag; placing a heat insulation layer between the inner bag and the outer bag; and then welding the heat insulation layer, the inner bag and the outer bag together. Improvements of the present invention include the steps of first preparing an inner bag periphery before preparing the inner bag, then welding an inner bag top sheet, welding an inner bag enclosure, cutting off the middle portion of the inner bag top sheet, and then welding a bottom surface of the inner bag, thereby forming an inner bag platform in the inner bag. Thus, heat transfer between the bag cover and the bag body after the production of the heat insulation bag is reduced and the heat insulation effect is improved.

The present invention provides a valve cup (10) for use with a container (30) for dispensing a fluid medium stored under pressure. The valve cup (10) supports a valve (50) and seals an opening (32) of the container (30) and is formed from a semi-crystalline polyester. The present invention also provides a container (30), wherein at least a part of the container (30) surrounding an opening (32) is formed from a semi-crystal-line polyester. A further valve cup (10) is formed from a metal or rigid material and further includes a polyester lining (70). Dispensing systems (1) including the above containers (30) and valve cups (10) are provided, wherein welding is facilitated between the container (30) and valve cups (10).

A sheet bonding device includes a pressurization mold which is constituted of an upper mold and a lower mold and performs sealing through heating by sandwiching a sealing target portion of a bag main body and a sealing target portion of a gas barrier function sheet with pressurization surfaces; a plurality of support pins which are provided in the lower mold so as to be retractable and position the gas barrier function sheet with respect to one surface of the bag main body by penetrating the sealing target portions of the bag main body and the gas barrier function sheet; and gas spray means for making the gas barrier function sheet float by spraying inert gas to an area-enlarged portion, which does not overlap the bag main body, of the gas barrier function sheet supported by the support pins.

A pipe coupler (30) comprises: an axis (500); a body portion (70) surrounding the axis; a circumferentially segmented collar (72) extending from a first axial end of the body portion and having an inner diameter surface (80) and an outer diameter surface (82); and a plurality of fingers (90) projecting from a second axial end of the body portion, axially opposite the first end and having inward radial projections (96).

The invention relates to a method for manufacturing a plastic pedelec frame (1) by, preferably integrally, joining two matching plastic half-shells (2, 3), said pedelec frame being provided with receptacles (12, 13, 14) for a handlebar (4), a bottom bracket (5) and preferably a seat (6). The two plastic half shells (2, 3) are made from a fiber-reinforced thermoplastic material containing a partially aromatic polyamide, using an injection molding process. The invention also relates to a pedelec frame (1) manufactured by said method.

A method for producing a plastic container from a first plastic half-shell and a second plastic half-shell, with a first attachment permanently fastened to the first plastic half-shell.
