Patent number: 9067365Abstract: The invention relates to a positioning device (203) for a manual welding machine (300), particularly for a plastic welding machine, comprising at least one contact shield (16) associated with the manual welding machine (300) and a positioning ring (3) associated with the material to be welded. In order to perform precise welding and to prevent the subsequent slipping of the manual welding machine (300), according to the invention, the positioning ring (3) can be fixed to the material to be welded and a contact shield (16) that can be inserted in the positioning ring (3) transfers a pressure distributed evenly over the circumference to the materials to be welded, in order to allow secure welding over a large area.Type: GrantFiled: May 31, 2010Date of Patent: June 30, 2015Assignee: Plasticon Germany GmbHInventor: Hermann Van Laak

Patent number: 8752257Abstract: An arrangement is provided for securing a lining material of a wall inner surface of a load-bearing construction, such as a container, apparatus, duct, housing, or column, which is acted upon by a gaseous or liquid medium. Multiple securing points are provided, and are arranged in a distributed manner and connected to the wall inner surface in order to secure the lining material. In order to reliably secure a lining material to a wall inner surface subject to great tractive forces, the fastening elements have at least one holding element which connects the wall inner surfaces to the lining material, and which can be fixed by a pressure element in a force- and/or form-fit manner.Type: GrantFiled: June 10, 2010Date of Patent: June 17, 2014Assignee: Plasticon Germany GmbHInventor: Hermann Van Laak
