Tapping assembly for a beverage, including container including a first and second container, wherein the first container has a neck portion and the second container is suspended in the first container, from the neck portion thereof. A neck region of the container is provided with at least one opening in a side wall thereof, preferably in a neck region of the first container, opening into a space between the first and second containers. The assembly further includes a connecting device, connected or connectable to the neck portion, wherein the connecting device includes at least one connecting element for connecting to the at least one opening, wherein the connecting element is connected to a source of pressurized gas.

A gear housing for an epicyclic gear set, the gear housing including a hollow wheel having internal teething and a first front end with a first front-side joining surface; a housing cover having a second front end with a second front-side joining surface for longitudinally axially covering the hollow wheel; and a bonded connection for connecting the first front end to the second front end through the mating of the first and second front-side joining surfaces, at which the hollow wheel and the housing cover are connected to each other by a bonded connection, in particular, by heated tool welding, infrared welding, ultrasonic welding, or rotary friction welding.

The fluid connecting system comprises a connecting piece (16) that consists of a single injection-molded part of plastic material, said part accommodating a coaxial first fluid conveying arrangement (15), as well as an also coaxial second fluid conveying arrangement (17) and providing several adhesive reservoirs that allow a pressure-resistant gluing of the two fluid conveying arrangements (15, 17) to each other by a reliable safe process.

An object is to provide a spin welding component that has a simple configuration of a welding surface and provides enhanced welding strength. A spin welding component 1 includes a shaft portion 2 formed in an approximately columnar shape, a flange portion 3 extended outward from below the shaft portion 2 to be formed in a disk-like shape, and an opening 4 formed by opening part of a bottom face of the flange portion 3. A molten resin 9 as molten material is applied on the bottom face. High-speed rotation causes the molten resin 9 to be melted by the frictional heat, and part of the molten resin 9 enters the opening 4 to be welded.

The machine (1) for sealing plastic profiled elements comprises: a base frame (6); a pair of retention members (7, 8), adapted to retain respective plastic profiled elements (P) having respective areas to seal (Z) with a first main edge (2a), a second main edge (3a), a first lateral edge (4a) and a second lateral edge (5a); a heat-sealing element with heated plate (11); sliding means (9, 10) of the retention members (7, 8); removing means (13, 14) adapted to remove material from the areas to seal (Z) at least at the first lateral edges (4a); lateral containment means (23, 24), which are adapted to abut on the areas to seal (Z) at the first lateral edges (4a) for the containment of a lateral sealing bead (S) and which comprise at least a V-shaped element (23) having two sides (25) arranged in a V pattern which are adapted to abut on at least a portion of respective first lateral faces (4) of the profiled elements (P).

A valve body unit (11) in which a plurality of valve bodies (17) which open and close intake passages (10) are attached on a rotational shaft (16) is inserted into inner sides of housing passages (28) of a housing (12) and, thereafter, a holder (13) is mounted in the housing (12) to rotatably support the valve body unit (11). A flange (14) is fixed onto an upper surface of the housing (12) on the holder (13) by means of a vibration welding and the holder (13) is retained with this flange (14) and the housing (12).

A housing includes a first surrounding wall connected around a base wall. The first surrounding wall has a first joint portion opposite to the base wall, a first outer surface and a first inner surface. The first outer and inner surfaces extend from the first joint portion toward the base wall. The first joint portion is stepped and has a first projecting portion adjoining the first outer surface, and a first shoulder portion indented from the first projecting portion and proximal to the first inner surface. The first shoulder portion has a plurality of parallel spaced-apart ribs protruding therefrom in a same direction as the first projecting portion. Each of the ribs has a tip that does not extend beyond a top end of the first projecting portion.

A device for welding profiled elements in plastic material includes: a base frame supporting retaining members of respective profiled elements, to engage the profiled elements with corresponding zones to be welded facing one another; a heater for heating the weld zones of the profiled elements; a unit to move the retaining members, to shift the profiled elements between a first reciprocal away direction and a second reciprocal closer direction wherein the zones to be welded are coupled together; and a removal unit utilizing milling The removal unit includes: a supporting frame positioned in correspondence to the retaining members; at least one machining tool; a motor part associated with the tool; and a movement member of the tool, to move it between a first idle condition and a second working condition wherein it is placed between the profiled elements.
