Abstract: A method of producing a pulp molded article comprising the steps of assembling splits (10, 11) each having a suction passageway and a papermaking screen (5) into a papermaking mold (1), filling the cavity of the papermaking mold (1) with a pulp slurry, discharging the liquid component of the pulp slurry through the suction passageway to deposit pulp fiber on the inner side of the papermaking screen (5) into an undried wet molded article, and dewatering the undried molded article deposited on the inner side of the papermaking screen (5), wherein the splits (10, 11) each have a large number of flow passageways (2) for feeding a purging fluid for cleaning the papermaking screen (5), and the purging fluid is ejected from the outer side of the papermaking screen (5) toward the cavity through the flow passageways (2) during the filling with the pulp slurry.

Abstract: A liquefied paper material is used as raw materials. A paper frame member 1 supporting a vibrating plate is paper-skimmed and formed. On paper-skimming and forming, a central hole for use in voice coils, air-release hole 1a releasing air pressure in a rear of the vibrating plate to outside due to vibration of the vibrating plate. A loudspeaker system is manufactured using the paper frame member 1.

Abstract: A pulp forming machine includes a forming head including a platen and plurality of mould carriers. The mould carriers are connected to the platen by mould carrier support means which allow the mould carrier and the platen to transmit forces perpendicular to the general plane of the platen but allow movement and expansion of each mould carrier in the general plane of the platen. Mould carrier to mould carrier locating means locate the mould carriers of opposing platens during the forming process to align moulds carried on the mould carriers with cooperating moulds of the cooperating platen.

Abstract: Tubular filter elements are formed by first feeding a slurry into a tubular moulding space between a vertical core and a cylindrical fine mesh screen. Air pressure is applied to the slurry so that the liquid drains through the screen and through a screen at one base of the space, while a mass of microfibres builds up to be removed from the space for bonding by a synthetic resin. A reciprocable sleeve increases the effective height of the screen as the mass builds up. Layers of microfibres having different qualities can be assembled by using different core diameters in succession. Filter elements that need not necessarily be cylindrical can be formed by this or analogous pressure methods in which the majority of the microfibres are directed approximately parallel to one another, and/or in which one or each face of the filter element has moulded into it a perforated sheet of supporting material.

Abstract: Apparatus for the production of combustible munition containers includes a normally vertical, hollow, water permeable but fiber-impermeable form having a circular cross-section.The form is rotated by a variable speed motor and the interior of the form is maintained under partial vacuum as aqueous suspensions are fed to adjacent axial zones of the form by pipes connected to separate suspension supply tanks so that, after dewatering, the resulting container is non-uniform in composition axially but is uniform in composition axially.
