The present invention relates to a method for manufacturing webs (1) that are intended to be involved in the makeup of a reinforcing ply (2) for a pneumatic tyre (20), said method comprising a preparation step (a), during which a plurality of straight-thread strips (7, 107, 207), which are each formed of a plurality of continuous reinforcing threads (4) that are embedded in a layer of rubber (5), are prepared, a butt-joining step (b), during which said straight-thread strips (7, 107, 207) are butt-joined in pairs to form a straight-thread ply (3), then a cutting step (c), during which the straight-thread ply (3) is inserted into a cutter (8) and the straight-thread ply (3) is severed transversely so as to form webs, wherein, in said method, the frontal width (W3) of the straight-thread ply (3) that is produced during the butt-joining step (b) and then inserted into the cutter (8) is equal to or greater than 50%, equal to or greater than 75%, equal to or greater than 80%, or even equal to or greater than 90%, of the cutter inlet width (W8), whereas the widest frontal width (W7, W107, W207) of the straight-thread strips is less than or equal to 50%, less than or equal to 40%, less than or equal to 25%, less than or equal to 10%, or even less than or equal to 5%, of said cutter inlet width (W8).

The present disclosure relates to corner profiles and/or corner reinforcement for liners and linings that are suitable for use with tanks and other storage/containment vessels, such as process tanks, immersion tanks, indoor or outdoor containment pits, gravity feed conduits (e.g., concrete trench, canal, or drain, etc.) for transferring or conveying liquid, grain storage tanks or containers (e.g., dielectric or electrically non-conductive liners for grain storage, etc.), etc. The present disclosure also relates to tanks and other storage/containment vessels including liners and linings with corner profiles and/or corner reinforcement. Additionally, the present disclosure relates to methods, systems, and apparatus for providing corner profiles and/or corner reinforcement for liners and linings.

A device for connecting a tubular element such as a hose or pipe to a part of a hydraulic or pneumatic system includes: a body having a connection end and a tubular element insertion end, the body having a cylindrical channel extending from the connection end to the tubular element insertion end, the connection end being connecting to the part of the hydraulic or pneumatic system, the cylindrical channel including a first part and a second part, the first part being arranged in the tubular element insertion end and the second part being arranged in the connection end. The tubular element insertion end includes at a middle section a recess extending radially from the first part of the cylindrical channel, along an entire circumference, the recess bordering the second part of the cylindrical channel. The tubular element insertion end includes at least one bore.

A composite vehicle driveshaft is provided with a composite tube and a welded joint system(s) at one or both ends of the composite tube for connecting the composite vehicle driveshaft to driveline components. Each welded joint system may include a sleeve that is bonded to an end of the composite tube and a joint assembly that is welded to the sleeve.

Connections of sub-elements formed at least partly from fiber composite materials of a component for an aircraft with relatively low manufacturing complexity and the same or improved reliability and improved sealing, by providing different seam connections between the sub-elements. For this purpose, at least an edge region, formed from fiber composite material, of the first sub-element is formed to give a foldover that engages with an edge region of the other sub-element. Preferably, the forming is effected especially with use of thermoplastic materials while heating preferably the entire edge region.

A component comprising a first concentric element and a second concentric element is disclosed. The first and second concentric elements are positioned relative to each other in the positions in which they are to be bonded together. The first concentric element comprises a first bonding portion (48) with a first bonding face (50), and the second concentric element comprises a second bonding portion (58) with a second bonding face (60), a first passage (62), and a second passage (64). The second bonding portion (58) partially surrounds the first bonding portion (48) and the first and second bonding faces (50, 60) face each other. The first and second bonding faces (50, 60) comprise a first and second void face (56, 61) respectively. Collectively the first and second bonding faces (50, 60) comprise an alpha plug (52) having an alpha plug face, a beta plug (54) having a beta plug face, an alpha bearing face, and a beta bearing face, in which the alpha plug face is in sliding contact with the alpha bearing face and the beta plug face is in sliding contact with the beta baring face, the alpha plug (52) is integral with one of the first or second void faces (56, 61) and the alpha bearing face is integral with the other of the first or second void faces (56, 61), the beta plug (54) is integral with one of the first or second void faces (56, 61) and the beta bearing face is integral with the other of the first or second void faces (56, 61), and the alpha and beta plugs (52, 54) and first and second void faces (56, 61) collectively define a void. The first and second passages (62, 64) each extend through the second concentric element from a mouth which opens onto the void to a mouth in an accessible surface of the second concentric element.
