Process of making a plastic component (1), in particular luggage shell, from self-reinforced thermoplastic material, to a plastic component (1) made of self-reinforced thermoplastic material and an apparatus for making such a plastic component, in particular luggage shell (7). The invention provides a new product and process for manufacturing same on the basis of self-reinforced thermoplastic material by means of the step of tensioning said material (lamina), at least partially tensioning said lamina during all follow-up component shaping and/or molding steps up to a release of a component pre-form shape from the remainder lamina, to form the component. The present invention allow the manufacturing of an ultra-light weight luggage shell (7) on the basis of using self-reinforced thermoplastic material, the manufacturing of same can be further enhanced by permanently tensioning said material during all manufacturing steps up to the final finishing of the product.

To solve the above problems, a pouch molding method according to an embodiment of the present invention includes: a seating step of seating a pouch film on a top surface of a die; a stripper descending step of allowing a stripper disposed above the die to descend; a fixing step of fixing the pouch film using the stripper; a molding preparation step of allowing a Blank holder disposed at a central portion of the die to ascend to contact one surface of the pouch film and allowing a punch disposed at a central portion of the stripper to descend to contact the other surface of the pouch film; and a molding step of allowing the punch and the Blank holder to descend along with each other to form a cup part in the pouch film.

Described is a method for making single-use capsules for beverages including the steps of: providing an upper flange having at least one hole; providing a support having at least one seat for housing a rigid cup-shaped body; inserting a rigid cup-shaped body in said housing seat, said rigid cup-shaped body having an inner space and an open upper opening; providing a piece of filter material above the upper flange; actuating a first step of feeding, by means of a pushing element, a central portion of said piece of filter material towards said hole, up to an intermediate position; upon reaching said intermediate position of the pushing element, performing a main locking of said piece of filter material relative to said upper flange and making a main cut of the piece of filter material along a predetermined main closed cutting line, extending substantially circularly about said central portion, to define a filter for infusion of beverages.

Cap wrinkling in a contoured composite hat stringer is reduced by constraining the cap as the hat stringer is being formed from a flat composite charge. The cap is constrained by an inflatable bladder placed in a tool set used to form the composite charge.

A display device includes a cover member which is at least partially bent, a panel member arranged along a surface of the cover member, where the panel member displays an image, and a support member arranged on another surface of the panel member different from the surface of the panel member on which the cover member is arranged.

A method of forming a forming mold screen including providing a die plate defining a plate contour and a die center point. A screen is disposed on the die plate. A retainer plate secured to the die plate defines an opening having a retainer center point substantially aligned with the die center point. The screen is disposed between the die plate and the retainer plate and substantially defines a plane. A nested punch unit inserted into the opening includes an inner punch and an outer punch disposed around the inner punch. The inner punch and the outer punch are aligned along an axis substantially aligned with the retainer center point. The screen pressed with the nested punch unit includes pressing the screen with the inner punch followed by pressing the screen with the outer punch.

A multi-cavity forming mould system for forming a plurality of discrete three-dimensional cellulose products from an air-formed cellulose blank structure. The forming mould system includes a first mould part and a second mould part arranged for cooperating with each other during forming of the cellulose products. The first mould part includes a plurality of first forming elements and the second mould part comprises a plurality of corresponding second forming elements movably arranged in relation to a base structure of the second mould part. The forming mould system is configured for establishing a plurality of forming cavities for the cellulose blank structure between each first forming element and corresponding second forming element during formation of the cellulose products. Each second forming element is arranged for interacting with a pressure member arranged in the base structure, where the pressure member is configured for establishing a forming pressure in each forming cavity onto the cellulose blank structure during formation of the cellulose products.

An apparatus for manufacturing a pouch of a secondary battery according to the present invention includes a lower die having an accommodation groove for molding a cup part of the pouch on a base surface, on which the pouch is disposed, a punch inserted into the accommodation groove of the lower die to mode the cup part of the pouch, a stripper disposed above the lower die to face the lower die and provided to press a peripheral portion of the pouch, which is disposed around a portion to be molded into the cup part of the pouch by the punch, from an upper side, and a back plate coupled to the stripper and configured to support the stripper, wherein a protruding block protruding toward the stripper is provided on a surface (S) of surfaces of the back plate, which faces the stripper.

A pouch case manufacturing device pack according to an embodiment of the present disclosure includes a fixing unit that fixes a pouch film of a laminated sheet for battery cells; and a punch unit that presses the pouch film so as to form a storage part on the pouch film. The punch unit includes a central punch unit and an outer peripheral punch unit surrounding the central punch unit, the central punch unit presses the central portion of the pouch film, and the outer peripheral punch unit presses the outer peripheral portion of the pouch film. In in a vertical cross section parallel to the pressing direction of the punch unit, a radius of curvature of a corner of the central punch unit is larger than a radius of curvature of a corner of the outer peripheral punch unit.
