  • Publication number: 20100265792
    Abstract: A static mixing device is described, comprising a flow channel and mixing elements which are distributed over the cross section of the flow channel in the form of flow bodies arranged on a wall extending in the direction of flow and which are each delimited by one tapering deflecting surface which is inclined in relation to the wall and originates from a base extending transversally to the direction of flow and by two guide surfaces which protrude from the wall and which converge in an edge extending transversally to the channel axis on the side of the flow bodies which is opposite of the base.

  • Patent number: 7708539
    Abstract: A device is suggested for calibrating an extruded plastic profile (1) having a shaping extrusion die (3) and having a framework (6) which is displaceable in the longitudinal direction of the plastic profile (1) in relation to the extrusion die (3), which has a cooling tank (5) and, between the cooling tank (5) and the extrusion die (3), a dry calibration apparatus (4) which is replaceably attached to a carrier (12) and is connectable on one hand to supply lines for a coolant liquid feed and removal and on the other hand to a partial vacuum. To obtain advantageous mounting conditions, it is suggested that the carrier (12), which is adjustable in relation to the cooling tank (5) in the longitudinal direction of the plastic profile (1), form a distributor, connected to the supply lines (16, 17), having line transitions (25) for the coolant liquid and the partial vacuum in the placement area of the dry calibration apparatus (4), which is provided with corresponding line transitions.

  • Patent number: 7491048
    Abstract: An extrusion die for extruding hollow profiles is suggested having a die head (2), which is connected to a runner part (1) and forms extrusion channels (3) for shaping a profiled strand (4), and having a runner chamber (5), which is provided between the die head (2) and the runner part (1) and runs transversely to the extrusion channels (3), which is connected around its circumference (8) to an annular channel (7) for impingement with plastic melt and from which the extrusion channels (3) of the die head (2) originate. In order to provide advantageous construction conditions, it is suggested that the runner part (1) have an inner channel (9) discharging into the runner chamber (5) inside the annular channel (7) for additional impingement of the runner chamber (5) with plastic melt.

  • Patent number: 7371062
    Abstract: A device for calibrating an extruder plastic profile having a calibration unit for the profiled strand coming-out of a molding profile nozzle is described, the calibration unit having a molding body (1) enclosing the profiled strand, having calibration surfaces (5), which press against the profiled strand, and vacuum slots (6), which run in the calibration surfaces (5) transversely to the passage direction of the profiled strand (2) and are connectable to a partial vacuum source. In order to provide advantageous construction conditions, it is suggested that at least individual vacuum slots (6) penetrate the molding body (1) transversely to the passage direction (2) and be closed on outside of the molding body (1) using a removable cover (12).

  • Patent number: 7258540
    Abstract: An apparatus for calibrating an extruded plastic profile forming at least one longitudinal groove (5), comprises a calibrating body (1) receiving the profile (2). Body (2) comprises a form nose (6) with a cooling channel (9) engaging in the longitudinal groove (5) and extending in the direction of passage of the profile, and coolant bores (13, 14, 26) extending transversally to the form nose (6) and crossing its cooling channel (9).
