A method of partially insulating an interior space of a pre-formed fluted core panel is disclosed herein. The fluted core panel includes a first facesheet, a second facesheet spaced apart from the first facesheet, and webs between the first facesheet and second facesheet. The interior space is defined between the first facesheet, the second facesheet, and adjacent webs. The method includes positioning a spacer in a first portion of the interior space, positioning a membrane between the spacer and a second portion of the interior space, and positioning insulation in the second portion of the interior space. Additionally, the method includes pressing the membrane against the spacer, curing the membrane, and removing the spacer from the first portion of the interior space.

A method of making an aircraft acoustic structural panel (10) begins with preforming a core honeycomb laminate (12) having preformed foam (3) bonded inside cells (14) thereof by a distinct adhesive (2). The preformed honeycomb laminate (12) is then stacked between opposite top and bottom structural outer laminates (16,18). The stacked honeycomb laminate (12) and outer structural laminates (16,18) are then compressed together under heat and pressure into a unitary structural panel (10) having the core honeycomb laminate (12) integrally bonded between outer skins (20,22). The outer laminates (16,18) may include imperforate acoustic septums (4) bounding the core honeycomb laminate (12) followed by an outer honeycomb (5) and structural fiber layers (6,7,8) defining the outer skins (20,22).

A resin frame includes frame members combined into a frame shape that includes a corner portion, and a joint portion joining a pair of the frame members which are adjacent to each other at the corner portion. The joint portion includes an entire-surface welded portion, in which end surfaces of the pair of the frame members are welded to each other over an entire surface in a thickness direction of a plate portion of the frame members, and a partial welded portion, in which the end surfaces of the pair of the frame members are welded to each other on one side of the entire surface in the thickness direction while another side of the entire surface in the thickness direction is not welded. The entire-surface welded portion and the partial welded portion are present at different portions on an outer periphery of the joint portion.

An assembly for forming a structural, insulating or decorative article as any of a roll, sheet, board or panel and including a width extending die and extruding nozzle for issuing a flowable polymeric material having either of a solid or ribbed cross sectional profile and including any of a polyurethane, a polypropylene or any other polymeric material. At least a pair of opposing and rotating pinch rollers are arranged for receiving therebetween the flowable material. A material roll simultaneously feeds a material layer between the rollers and against the flowable polymer material at a given pressure to cause the polymeric material to fuse and embed within the material layer. The material separate material layer can further include any structural panel, multi-panel or pallet style construction, such including both solid and interiorly hollowed/corrugated constructions.

A resin frame includes frame members combined into a frame shape that includes a corner portion, and a joint portion joining a pair of the frame members which are adjacent to each other at the corner portion. The joint portion includes an entire-surface welded portion, in which end surfaces of the pair of the frame members are welded to each other over an entire surface in a thickness direction of a plate portion of the frame members, and a partial welded portion, in which the end surfaces of the pair of the frame members are welded to each other on one side of the entire surface in the thickness direction while another side of the entire surface in the thickness direction is not welded. The entire-surface welded portion and the partial welded portion are present at different portions on an outer periphery of the joint portion.

The present invention relates to a device for controlling the temperature of a component and a method of production thereof. The device includes an elongate basic profile that defines a plurality of fluid flow channels in its interior. The fluid flow channels are arranged in series and separated by webs. The elongate basic profile extrudes from a plastic material. The device includes a connection unit connected to the basic profile and designed to direct fluid into the basic profile or out of the basic profile. The connection unit is formed partially or completely from a transparent plastic material.

A method and a device (10) for welding at least two profiled sections (1) for window or door frames or leaves uses a heating unit (4) introduced between the profiled sections (2, 3) to be joined. At least two heating elements (5, 6) of the heating unit melt the profiled section ends (2, 3) at the end surfaces to be joined. In order to chamfer, in particular remove, a profiled section edge layer (20) of the profiled section ends (2, 3) along the layer surfaces (12, 13) thereof, at least one tool, in particular at least one cutting blade (7, 8), is arranged on the heating elements (5, 6) and is moved such that the material (9) to be melted is displaced into the profiled section interior (11) or into the interior (12) of the profiled section chambers (13). A compression device compresses the profiled section ends (2, 3).

The profiled element (1) comprises: one main portion (2) defining a holding surface (2a) for a central panel (3) of a door/window (4), the main portion (2) being adapted to form a perimeter frame (5) of the door/window (4); one retaining portion (6) which defines an abutment surface (6a) of the central panel (3) and is adapted to fasten the central panel (3) to the perimeter frame (5); and non-removable connection means (7) which connect the main portion (2) to the retaining portion (6) and are adapted to allow the movement of the retaining portion (6) between a raised configuration, wherein it frees superiorly the holding surface (2a), and a retaining configuration, wherein it faces the holding surface (2a).

A method for producing composite profiles comprises providing a first profile part extending in a longitudinal direction, made from a first plastics material, with a profile region produced from a second plastics material thermally plasticizable at a first temperature, providing a second profile part extending in a longitudinal direction, made from a material not thermally plasticizable at the first temperature, and with a receiving structure formed along the longitudinal direction of the second profile part, with which the profile region of the first profile part is connectible, bringing the profile region of the first profile part into contact with the receiving structure of the second profile part, plasticizing the second plastics material of the profile region by heating to the first temperature and deforming the plasticized profile region while forming a positive engagement between the profile region and the receiving structure while maintaining the geometry of the receiving structure.
