  • Patent number: 11820059
    Abstract: An ultrasonic device comprising a fusion chamber (10) with an inlet bore (11) for a polymer in pellet, powder or tablet form, a plunger that modifies the volume of the fusion chamber, an outlet bore (12) that communicates with a mould (60), a sonotrode bore (13) through which a distal portion (21) of an ultrasonic head (20) is inserted into the fusion chamber, wherein the distal portion is separated from the rest of the ultrasonic head by a first nodal plane (PN1) in correspondence of a first surface (S1) in contact with a complementary surface of a ring seal (30) that closes the fusion chamber, the ultrasonic head including a second nodal plane (PN2) away from and parallel to the first nodal plane in correspondence of or adjacent to a second surface (S2) wherein an anchoring device (40) presses the ultrasonic head against the ring seal ensuring a tight closure.

  • Patent number: 10967542
    Abstract: The invention relates to a method for manufacturing a part made from composite material, having a body and one or more continuous fibre bundles in its interior, characterised in that it comprises the stages of: a) obtaining a body that includes one or more tubular cavities in its interior that extend between a first end, disposed on the outer surface of the body and which comprises an inlet orifice, and a second end, opposite to the first end; b) introducing resin in the liquid state and a continuous fibre bundle in the interior of at least one tubular cavity through its inlet orifice; and c) curing the resin until it solidifies, adhering to the body and fixing the continuous fibre bundle. The invention also relates to a system for manufacturing a part made from composite material and to the part made from composite material obtained.

  • Patent number: 10881305
    Abstract: The thoracic element, in the shape of a band, comprises a support layer (5) including a first and second sensors (1),(2) and a processing unit (3) inside a casing (8). The first sensor (1) is a laminated strain gauge located on an elastic portion (5c) of the support layer (5) and the second sensor (2) is formed by a first and a second laminated electro-conductive elements (2a), (2b) cooperating to obtain an ECG measurement. Each of the sensors (1), (2) includes at their ends a connector (21a, 21b, 11a, 11b) to be attached to terminals (4a), (4b) of the casing (8). The laminated electro-conductive elements are superimposed and separated by an electric insulating rigid laminar layer (6). The support layer has two openings (5a) and (5b) at a given distance, through which the electro-conductive elements (2a and 2b) can contact the skin of the individual.
