  • Patent number: 9084715
    Abstract: A port device (10) for a fluid storage bag (46) comprises a housing (12) having a bottom wall (14) and opposing sidewalls (16, 18), and a connective opening (20) in said housing (12) opposite to said bottom wall (14). The connective opening (20) is adapted to be connected with said fluid storage bag (46) and has an elongate surface area shaped by a wide center portion (22) and peaked longitudinally opposing ends (24). A port device (10) further comprises at least one access port (26) in said bottom wall (14) adapted to communicate with the interior of said fluid storage bag (46) through said connective opening (20). In order to be fixable to the fluid storage bag (46) in a safe and easy manner, said port device (10) further comprises at least one bridge element (32) supporting said sidewalls (16, 18) and oriented transversely to the longitudinal direction (34).

  • Patent number: 6270334
    Abstract: This device ensures insertion of a film into the entrance of a transverse drawing machine, leaving a longitudinal drawing machine. This device includes a fixed cylinder with an axis perpendicular to the travel axis of the film, located upstream of the entrance to the transverse drawing machine, whose lower generatrix is located in the film travel plane in the transverse drawing machine, a chest whose axis is perpendicular to the travel axis of the film, mounted on a movable support, so that it can be displaced between a retracted position and a position in which the chest is located between the fixed cylinder and the entrance to the transverse drawing machine, the upper surface of the chest then being disposed substantially in the plane in which the film travels in the transverse drawing machine.
