Abstract: A method of transferring a plurality of metal foil labels from a metal foil strip onto a continuous film liner in spaced apart juxtapositions, the method comprising placing metal foil strips onto a continuous web to form an assembly of the strips and the web, feeding the foil strip assembly through a compression roller module, and then feeding the foil strip assembly to a rotary die cutting module to cut through said metal foil strip and portions of said web to form a plurality of metal foil labels.

Abstract: An appliance for supporting a woman during childbirth includes a flexible supporting part of flat design for supporting the woman's back, buttocks and thighs. Attached to the supporting part are suspension elements by means of which the supporting part can be suspended. The supporting part preferably has a basic shape in the form of an elongate quadrilateral, with two longitudinal sides, a head side and a leg side. The leg side is bent in or recessed thereby forming two tabs which are intended for supporting the thighs and between which the child-bearing region in the vicinity of the woman's vagina remains freely accessible. By adjusting the suspension height of the head side or leg side, the position of the supporting part and therefore the woman's position can be selected, any position from an upright posture to a supine position being possible.

Abstract: A process for producing and processing multicomponent mixtures on the basis of reaction plastics provides that the liquid mixture is cooled off to a temperature that allows virtually dry further processing. This is done in that the cooled reaction plastic mixture is shaped as a solid piece from which material is rubbed off while it is applied onto a surface to be coated. The rubbed off material melts on the surface to be coated and hardens within a short period of time.

Abstract: The process for hardening ballasts and other heaped structures calls for an adhesive, which is pourable at ambient temperatures, to first be transformed into the solid state by means of cooling. Then, the application of the liquid adhesive onto the heaped structure is time-dosed by the thawing of the cooled adhesive.
