Abstract: The invention concerns an impact machine for forming a body with desired shape of a formable working material through impact action in a forming operation, said impact machine comprising a machine stand (6), an upper unit which comprises either a lower impact unit (3), which comprises a counter-impact device, or a stationary anvil, and a central unit between the upper and the lower units.

Abstract: A packaging container for a pressurized, liquid food, the packaging container being formed from a packaging laminate which includes at least one core layer of paper or paperboard displaying one major fibre orientation in a first direction thereof. According to the invention, said core layer is pre-strained in a second direction which is substantially at right angles to said first direction, with a view to reducing or eliminating expansion in the finished, filled packaging container during storage thereof. The present invention also encompasses a packaging laminate for the packaging container, as well as a method of producing the packaging container.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for the manufacture of an annular article, which substantially consists of metal, ceramic material, and/or polymer. A cavity in a die is filled with a formable working material, which shall form said article. A tubular, upper punch (17) is introduced into the upper mouth of a hole in a die (34), so that a closed mould cavity is formed. The upper punch and a lower punch (27) are simultaneously struck towards one another at such a high velocity that the working material is plasticized and flows out and fills the mould cavity, and thereafter the upper punch is removed. Then, a mandrel (35) in the lower punch is driven out of the annular body by means of a mandrel expulsor (170), which is pressed against the mandrel from above, and thereafter the annular body is from below pushed out of the die by mean of the lower punch. The invention also relates to an equipment for the carrying out of the method.

Abstract: The invention concerns an impact machine for forming, cutting, or punching a working material in a mould die by impact action during an impact operation carried out by means of impact devices, preferably from two opposite directions, said impact devices being provided to strike the working material or impact members which transfer the impact energy of the impact devices to the working material, said die (9) being carried by a carrier (2) included in the impact machine. According to the invention, the die is resiliently mounted in the carrier, which e.g. may consist of a stationary or moveable table.

Abstract: A method for the manufacturing of a plate (2) of metal or of a ceramic material, the plate having one or more fields (3) which occupy the major part of the surface of the plate and which on at least one side of the plate is high relief patterned such that the plate on said at least one side within the area of said field or fields has reliefs with high projections and deep valleys (9) or recesses (8) alternatingly, and between the sides a thin web (10), said high relief patterned field or fields being at least partly bordered by broad edge portions (4) which have a thickness larger than the mean thickness of the plate within the region of said high relief patterned field or fields. In a preparatory step, an intermediate product (1) is manufactured. This intermediate product includes at least a first portion (11) which shall form said high relief patterned field(s), which however is/are not yet high relief patterned but contain(s) an adequate quantity of material.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a hydraulic DEVICE having a valve housing (1) with a movable valve body (2) arranged inside the valve housing, a hydraulic cylinder with at least a hydraulic chamber (115), and at least a control mechanism (4) for the control of said movable valve body (2), the valve body (2) is substantially sleeve-shaped and arranged inside an annular space (128) in the valve housing (1), and said valve body (2) is provided with a plurality of apertures (250, 251, 252; 206, 202) to make a flow of hydraulic liquid possible in the radial direction through the valve body (2).

Abstract: A method of forming a body of a formable working material in an impact machine, which comprises an upper impact unit (29 with an upper ram (14), an upper punch (17), a lower impact unit (3) with a lower ram (24), a lower punch (27), and mould cavity for the working material between the punches when the punches are brought towards one another, is characterized in that downwards movable masses, which comprise at least the mass of the upper ram and the mass of the upper punch, and upwards movable masses, which include at least the mass of the lower ram and the mass of the lower punch, are caused to move towards one another and towards the working material in the mould cavity, that the masses which move downwards, including the upper punch (17) obtain a downwards directed velocity (v1) and those masses which move upwards, including the lower punch (27), obtain an upwards directed velocity (v2), wherein the movable parts have such masses and the velocities are so high that the momentums of the downwards movable ma

Abstract: A three part package of polymer coated aluminum for fill-goods under pressure includes a for example frusto-conical barrel, a top and a bottom. The bottom includes a central, circular dome facing inwardly in the package, outside thereof a circular portion, which is inwardly curved and extends toward the barrel, and a rim, which extends downwardly from the curved portion and is intended for sealing to the barrel.
