  • Patent number: 7585169
    Abstract: The invention relates to a method for producing an adhesive closure element made of a thermoplastic synthetic material, by means of an extruder, which is produced without the need for screens, using a tempered forming cylinder (3) coated in rubber and a pressure cylinder in the form of a tempered pressure and smoothing cylinder. According to the invention, the synthetic material of a strip of film (2) is compressed by a wide split nozzle (1) of the extruder into pin holes (4) embodied as pocket holes in a rubber layer (7) which is arranged on the tempered forming cylinder (3), said layer of rubber (7) and the pin holes being provided with a teflon covering. The pin strip (5) is guided by means of a tempered withdrawal cylinder (10) between a gap with a gap with a pression cylinder (9) heated to a temperature greater than 230° C. and covered with PTFE at a low speed of between approximately 1 m/min. and 20 m/min.

  • Patent number: 6585029
    Abstract: A continuous casting mold for continuous casting of a steel billet. Opposite spaced apart wide side walls and opposite spaced apart narrow side walls between the wide side walls and clampable at the wide side walls and also displacable along the wide side walls transversely to the casting direction, the narrow side walls being narrow wedged-shaped in the casting direction. A funnel-shaped pouring-in region defined in the wide side walls. The wide side walls converge in the casting direction. The distance between the wide side walls at the mold end is constant over the entire width of the side walls allowing at least one of the wide side walls is supported to be displaceable and tiltable with respect to the other wide side wall by an adjusting device.

  • Patent number: 6223888
    Abstract: The invention refers to a roller conveyor for individually packed goods units, and particularly for heavy, individually packed goods units such as pallets, with multiple successive and spaced rollers arranged in the direction of conveyance, provided also with carrier rollers that form a conveying surface for the packed goods units, and having at least one continuous drive belt proceeding in the conveying direction as well as along the side of the carrier rollers that face the conveying surface, and that same belt—in order to drive the carrier rollers—can be placed (pressed) against the carrier rollers via hugger rollers that can be moved in the carrier rollers' conveyance direction, by means of shifting (regulating) devices.

  • Patent number: 6029800
    Abstract: The invention concerns a conveyor for packages, especially a conveyor for flexible packages such as newspapers, textiles or sacks. The conveyor includes a plurality of sequential, parallel and spaced rollers, which form a conveying surface and are perpendicular to a direction of conveyance. Along their length, the rollers have alternating cylindrical sections and narrowing sections. The narrowing sections narrow to both sides of a highest point along the length of the roller toward the cylindrical sections. A plurality of continuous belts are guided around groups of sequential rollers and run in the direction of conveyance to bridge gaps between the spaced rollers. The belts are positioned around the narrowing sections at the maximum diameter thereof.

  • Patent number: 5058727
    Abstract: This invention relates to a conveyor apparatus or roller train with a series of conveyor stations, the support rollers of which can be optionally driven or shut off. To create an economical and reliable roller train with a separation and storage function, each conveyor station of the roller train has its own drive motor with a switchgear unit and the several switchgear units are connected together for control purposes into a cascade so that only the first switchgear unit of the cascade is connected to a higher-voltage switch cabinet.
