Abstract: A glue gun, comprising: a housing for storing strands including thermoplastic plastic, a heating device, an outlet nozzle for discharging heated strands from the glue gun, an extrusion unit for shaping extruded strand, a conveying device for conveying strands to the heating device and through the outlet nozzle. Embodiments of the disclosure make it possible to store glue in the glue gun even in large amounts and to join the parts to each other with a strand of fiber-reinforced plastic with adhesive bonds in such a way that the adhesive bonds can withstand even large forces. Various glue guns of the disclosure include a pultrusion unit for consolidating fibers and plastic.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for producing a support structure in the form of a hybrid component with a base structure and with at least one reinforcement structure, having the following steps: producing the at least one reinforcement structure for each base structure, wherein the at least one reinforcement structure, in particular all of the reinforcement structures, is/are made of a composite material comprising fibers and a matrix using a pultrusion and/or extrusion process, and connecting the at least one reinforcement structure to the base structure such that the at least one reinforcement structure is connected to the base structure in a connection position, and the base structure together with the at least one reinforcement structure forms the support structure.

Abstract: A method for reinforcing an existing base structure with at least one reinforcing structure so as to form a support structure having the following steps: producing the at least one reinforcing structure, connecting the at least one reinforcing structure to the base structure such that the at least one reinforcing structure is connected to the base structure in a connection position and the base structure together with the at least one reinforcing structure forms the support structure. The at least one reinforcing structure is made of a composite material comprising fibers and a matrix by means of pultrusion and/or extrusion, and a pultrusion unit and/or an extrusion unit is moved in space such that the at least one reinforcing structure, is pultruded and/or extruded onto the base structure at the respective required connection position after the pultrusion and/or extrusion.

Abstract: With a method for producing a two-dimensional or three-dimensional framework (1) with rods (2) of a composite material with fibers and a matrix, which are connected with nodes (3) to at least one other rod (2) and/or another component (29), comprising the steps of: producing the rods (2) out of a composite material, connecting the rods (2) with at least one other rod (2) and/or another component (29) at the nodes (3), the framework (1) should be manufactured inexpensively and reliably by a low technical effort. This object can be solved in a way that the rods (2) are being produced with pultrusion and/or extrusion and a pultrusion unit (6) and/or an extrusion unit (7) is moved in space such that after the pultrusion and/or extrusion the pultruded and/or extruded rods (2) are pultruded and/or extruded in each case at the required position within the framework (1).

Abstract: The invention relates to a glue gun (1), comprising: a housing (2), at least one storage means (5) for storing plastic, a heating device (11, 12), an outlet nozzle (10) for discharging the heated plastic from the glue gun (1), an extrusion unit (9) for shaping the strand (36) having plastic, which strand is to be extruded, a conveying device (17) for conveying the thermoplastic plastic from the storage means (6) to the heating device (11, 12) and through the outlet nozzle (10). The problem addressed by the invention is that it should be possible to store glue in the glue gun (1) even in large amounts and to join the parts to each other with a strand of fiber-reinforced plastic by means of adhesive bonds in such a way that the adhesive bonds withstand even large forces. This problem is solved in that the glue gun (1) comprises a pultrusion unit (8) for consolidating fibers and plastic.
