Abstract: A molded body formed with pulp mold having projected lines corresponding to a slit-shaped vent package part, capable of being provided by paper-making/dewatering, using a paper making mold, a slurry having fibers dispersed in a liquid so as to obtain a three-dimensional fiber wetted laminated body, moving the laminated body to a dry mold having an inner surface with the slit-shaped vent package, and pressing and drying that laminated body.
Abstract: A method of producing a pulp molded article. The method feeds a pulp slurry to a cavity of a papermaking mold having a prescribed cavity shape to form a pulp preform including a main part having an opening and a separable part having a flange and connected to an edge of the opening. A pressing member is inserted into the preform, the pressing member is expanded to press the preform toward the papermaking surface, the preform is removed from the papermaking mold, and then the preform is cut at a joint between the separable part and the main part.
Abstract: A method for producing a pulp molded article is disclosed. The method comprises the steps of forming and drying a pulp molded precursor (15). The drying step includes a first step and a second step. In the first step, the precursor (15) is set in a cavity of a heating mold, and is hot-pressed. The cavity has a configuration in conformity to the contour of the pulp molded article to be produced. In the second step, the hot-pressed precursor (15) is taken out from the heating mold and is heat-dried in a drying furnace.
Abstract: A method for producing a pulp molded article (7) comprising the steps of supplying a pulp slurry into the cavity (1) of a mold (10) composed of a set of splits (3 and 4), the set of splits (3 and 4) being assembled together to form the cavity (1) with a prescribed configuration, to form a pulp deposited body (5), feeding a fluid into the cavity (1) to press the pulp deposited body (5) onto the inner wall of the cavity (1) for dewatering.
Abstract: A method of producing a pulp molded article is disclosed. The method comprises the steps of: feeding a pulp slurry to a cavity (4) of a papermaking mold (1) having a prescribed cavity shape to form a pulp preform (7) comprising a main part (7a) having an opening and a separable part (7b) having a flange (7c) and connected to the edge of the opening; inserting a pressing member (8) into the preform (7); expanding the pressing member (8) to press the preform (7) toward the papermaking surface; removing the preform (7) from the papermaking mold (1); and then cutting the preform (7) at a joint between the separable part (7b) and the main part (7a).
Abstract: A process for producing a pulp molded article comprising inserting a hollow inflatable pressing member 81 which has been made small so as to have smaller cross-sectional contour into a cavity 4 of a mold 1 in which a pulp layer 7 has been formed, and feeding a pressurizing fluid into the inserted pressing member 81 to inflate the pressing member 81 thereby to press the pulp layer 7 onto the inner wall of the cavity 4.
Abstract: A coffin for a human being molded of papier-mache. The coffin is formed with ribs that provide strength to the structure and at the same time have a decorative effect. The improved method of forming the coffin includes drawing paper pulp onto the molds while the latter are inverted so that there is a heavy flow of pulp by gravity to the open end of the coffin to produce heavier flanges. When the mold is received from the pulp with the coffin molded onto it, an air impervious blanket is placed over the coffin when the vacuum is applied to suction the water from the papier-mache so that greater compression of the pulp is obtained to produce a stronger papier-mache structure and reduce the drying time.
