  • Publication number: 20240049837
    Abstract: A method for producing a textile material, in particular a shoe upper, including the steps of: providing a shaping support, in particular a last; melting a polymer composition at a first temperature; applying the molten polymer composition to the shaping support. The molten polymer composition is applied to the shaping support by a nozzle which has an outlet opening for the molten polymer composition and a plurality of air exit openings which are provided around the outlet opening and from which compressed air is supplied to the exiting polymer composition in such a way that the molten polymer composition which has exited from the nozzle is applied as a helical filament to the shaping support.

  • Patent number: 10843832
    Abstract: A method and device for thermal activation of tube-shaped packaging sleeves made of cardboard/plastic composite material, wherein a hot gas is applied to the tube-shaped packaging sleeve by a heating device in order to produce the base or the head of the packaging. To achieve even heating for the activation of the contact surfaces with production using simple construction, wherein the energy required for the activation process is used as completely as possible for the heating of the surfaces to be activated, the heating device is placed into effective contact with the surfaces to be activated by the heating device being moved inside the tube-shaped packaging sleeves for activation. The heating device has at least one nozzle element with an outlet opening, the external shape of which nozzle element corresponds to the internal shape of the end of the tube-shaped packaging sleeve to be activated.
