The methods herein relate to assembling an elastic laminate with a first elastic material and a second elastic material bonded between first and second substrates. During assembly, an elastic laminate may be formed by positioning the first and second substrates in contact with stretched central regions of the first and second elastic materials. The elastic laminates may include two or more bonding regions that may be defined by the various layers or components of the elastic laminate that are laminated or stacked relative to each other. In some configurations, a first plurality of ultrasonic bonds are applied to the elastic laminate to define a first bond density in the first bonding region, and a second plurality of ultrasonic bonds are applied to the elastic laminate to define a second bond density in the second bonding region, wherein the second bond density is not equal to the first bond density.

Method of bonding a shear web (50) to a wind turbine blade shell (75) and the obtained blade, wherein the shear web (50) comprises a web and a mounting flange (56) oriented transverse to the web (50). The method involves: providing a seal (66, 68) on the mounting flange (56) of the shear web (50) such that when the mounting flange (56) is positioned against the blade shell (75), a cavity (76) is defined by the seal between the mounting flange (56) and the blade shell (75). The air of the cavity (76) is then evacuated and adhesive is injected into the cavity (76). The use of pieces (80) to keep the distance between the mounting flange (56) and the blade shell (75) is preferred.

A low-temperature vacuum cooking device and a cooking appliance including low-temperature vacuum cooking device are provided. The cooking appliance may include a housing including a container mount, a first container having a space to accommodate a liquid therein, the first container being configured to be coupled with the container mount, a heater that heats the liquid accommodated in the first container, a cover rotatably installed on the housing to cover or open the first container.

A vacuum adiabatic body, a method for fabricating a vacuum adiabatic body, a porous substance package, and a refrigerator including a vacuum adiabatic body and a porous substance package are provided. The vacuum adiabatic body may include a first plate, a second plate, a seal, a support, a heat resistance device, and an exhaust port. The support may include a porous substance and a film made of a resin material, the film configured to accommodate the porous substance therein. Accordingly, it may be possible to provide a vacuum adiabatic body through an inexpensive process.

A process for packaging a product arranged on a support comprising unrolling a film, moving the film to a packaging assembly defining at its inside a packaging chamber, progressively moving a number of supports inside the packaging chamber of the packaging assembly, closing the packaging chamber with the film sheets held above the respective support, optionally causing one or both of: a gas withdrawal from the hermetically closed packaging chamber and gas injection of a gas mixture of controlled composition, heat sealing the film to said support, wherein the heat sealing uses one or more heaters having heating surfaces which are heated for discrete and short time periods only. An apparatus for performing the above process is also disclosed.

The present disclosure relates to methods for assembling elastic laminates that may be used to make absorbent article components. Particular aspects of the present disclosure involve providing a first substrate and a second substrate, the first substrate and the second substrate, each having a width in a cross direction; providing an activated elastic material; elongating the activated elastic material; and ultrasonically bonding the first substrate together with the second substrate with the elongated activated elastic material positioned between the first substrate and the second substrate.

The present disclosure relates to methods for assembling elastic laminates that may be used to make absorbent article components. Particular aspects of the present disclosure involve a spreader mechanism operating to activate an elastic material by stretching the elastic material in to a first elongation. The elastic material is then consolidated to a second elongation, wherein the second the elongation is less than the first elongation. The consolidated elastic material is then joined to one or more substrates. In some configurations, the substrates may be nonwovens, and the elastic material may be an elastic film and/or an elastic laminate.

A vacuum-sealing device includes external cylinder part (501B) which includes a distal end face that is brought into airtight contact with an outer face of a container that is a vacuum-sealing target to cover an exhaust hole of the container, and includes body part (501A) provided within external cylinder part (501B) and movable forward and backward along an axial center of external cylinder part (501B). The vacuum-sealing device further includes driver (503) that moves external cylinder part (501B) and body part (501A) forward and backward in the direction of extension of the axial center of external cylinder part (501B), and heater (504) that heats distal end portion (51) of body part (501A). Exhaust space (58) communicating with the distal end face of external cylinder part (501B) is formed between an outer circumferential face of distal end portion (51) of body part (501A) and an inner circumferential face of external cylinder part (501B).

This packaging method for polycrystalline silicon is for reducing contamination by surface organic impurities, in particular surface carbon impurities. After a packaging bag is filled with polycrystalline silicon, a portion of the packaging bag on the opening part side relative to a filled part where the polycrystalline silicon is filled and on the filled part side relative to a planned heat-seal part where the packaging bag will be heat-sealed is clamped by clamping rods such that no gas flows into the filled part, the planned heat-seal part is heat-sealed by sealing rods on both sides while clamped by the clamping rods, and the clamping rods are removed after the heat-sealing.

A forming tool is used, which has a tool trough arranged in a stationary manner and a pressure bell, which can be lowered onto and lifted away from the tool trough. An arrangement is created in which a single- or multi-layer, initially flat, flexible laminate separates the trough interior from the pressure-bell interior in a pressure tight manner. A table, on which the 3-D substrate to be coated is located, assumes a lowered position within the trough interior; there is a considerable, free intermediate space (between the laminate and the 3-D substrate. A radiant-heater assembly is inserted into said intermediate space. The radiant-heater assembly has a carrier, on the top side of which radiant heaters that can be activated are attached and on the bottom side of which radiant heaters that can be activated are attached.
