  • Patent number: 8318281
    Abstract: An absorbent laminated paper article is a rectangular sheet having first parallel edges in a first direction, second parallel edges in a second perpendicular direction and an article area delimited by the edges. The article includes at least two plies adhesively bonded in a bonding pattern between the plies. The bonding pattern includes bonding elements arranged along a first set of bonding lines extending from one of the first parallel edges to the other of first parallel edges in a first direction at a first angle to the first direction and along a second set of bonding lines extending from the one of first parallel edges to the other of first parallel edges in a second direction at a second angle to the first direction, the first set of bonding lines intersecting with the second set and forming an intermeshing network of bonding lines.

  • Patent number: 7153385
    Abstract: Method for producing a multi-ply web of flexible material, such as paper and nonwoven material, comprising at least one first and one second ply which are interconnected by gluing in a plurality of discrete glue sites. The web is printed with at least one printing pattern which is in register with the glue pattern. The multi-ply web is produced by bringing a first ply in contact with a patterned glue transfer roll, transferring glue to the first ply in a glue pattern, a second ply is brought in contact with the glue applied side of the first ply in a press nip between a patterned lamination roll and an impression roll, the glue transfer roll and the lamination roll being in register with each other and having corresponding patterns.

  • Patent number: 6808664
    Abstract: Method for forming an air laid fibrous web, wherein an air born fiber stream is laid on a web shaped forming member, such as a wire, and the air laid fibrous web is bonded together.

  • Patent number: 6753058
    Abstract: A pile of a plurality of panels includes at least one web of a hygiene- or wiping material. The web has a web width and a web length and is divided in its length direction in closely adjacent or partly overlapping separate or partly interconnected sheets, which in the longitudinal direction of the web extend between transverse separations or perforations. The web as well as the sheets are folded in accordion-like manner about transverse folding lines forming panel edges, so that panels are formed and piled on top of each other. The pile has a panel width constituting the distance between adjacent folding lines and a panel length which is the same as the panel width. The majority of the sheets comprised in a pile have a length, which is not divisible with the panel width.

  • Publication number: 20030096687
    Abstract: A method of making a multi ply tissue paper web. The tissue web material is wound a plurality of revolutions in a helical manner to form a tube-like shape or alternatively the shape of a flattened tube, in which the edges of the web material of adjacent revolutions are partly overlapping, located substantially edge to edge or are located a small distance apart. The thus formed tube is then flattened to form a double- or multiply web. Alternatively web material is pulled out in the form of a helically twisted tube from the centre of a centre-fed roll of web material, and subsequently flattening the tube.

  • Publication number: 20030091786
    Abstract: The invention refers to a pile (1) of a plurality of panels (2) comprising at least one web of a hygiene- or wiping material (3). The web has a web width (3a) and a web length (3b) and is divided in its length direction in closely adjacent or partly overlapping separate or partly interconnected sheets (3′, 3″), which in the longitudinal direction of the web extend between transverse separations or perforations (4). The web as well as the sheets are folded in accordion-like manner about transverse folding lines (5) forming panel edges (14), so that panels (2) are formed and piled on top of each other, wherein the pile has a panel width (2a) constituting the distance between adjacent folding lines (5) and a panel length (2b) which is the same as the panel width (3a). The majority of the sheets (3′, 3″) comprised in a pile have a length, which is not divisible with the panel width (2a).

  • Publication number: 20030000666
    Abstract: The invention relates to a multi-layered soft paper web, and a method for forming such. A multi-layered soft paper web consists of at least one layer, showing basis weight variations in a pattern. A base-layer of a fibre furnish is firstly formed on a wire (2), whereupon at least one top layer is deposited on top of the base-layer, which is supported by a wire or the like (3, 13, 113, 1113) under the applying of the top layer, whereby the top layer is deposited with a fibre suspension jet, and the hereby deposited top layer is formed with twin wire technology. A pattern is created in connection with the forming of the base layer, or at least one top layer by local redistributions within the layer of at least one substantial part of the solid material in the fibre furnish, whereby the pattern in said layer is created under simultaneous dewatering, and that the local redistributions are dependent of the pattern as well.

  • Publication number: 20020055310
    Abstract: A method for providing a wire for forming a patterned fiber web, a wire which has been provided by means of the method according to the invention and a patterned fiber web formed on the wire (100) according to the invention, which comprises a plurality of threads (101, 102, 103, 104, 105, 106) arranged in a wire structure with a plurality of drainage opening (107, 108, 109) and a patterning area (110) substantially in the plane of the wire, intended for the forming. In the method a number of the threads (103, 104, 105) are given a permanent deformation for forming one or several pattern creating surfaces (111) within the patterning area (110) at the forming. The invention may be applied in relation to production of soft tissue paper, wet pressed non woven materials, air laid non woven materials, or at the production of hydraulically patterned or entangled non woven materials.
