Abstract: A floor panel for forming a floor covering, wherein this floor panel comprises a substrate, which substrate is manufactured on the basis of synthetic material; wherein this floor panel, on at least one pair of opposite edges, comprises coupling parts, which coupling parts allow that two such floor panels can be coupled to each other by means of a downward movement of one floor panel in respect to the other floor panel.

Abstract: A floating floor system includes a plurality of floor panels, each of the floor panels comprising a base layer, a wear layer forming an uppermost surface of the floor panel, a first locking edge portion having a first locking profile that includes a first channel having a first channel floor, the first locking edge portion being formed by the wear layer and the base layer, the first locking profile further comprising a first channel bed thickness measured between the uppermost surface and the first channel floor, and wherein the wear layer forms at least 5% of the first channel bed thickness, and a second locking edge portion having a second locking profile that includes a second vertical ridge, the second locking edge portion located opposite the first locking edge portion.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates generally to filled polyimides that can be used in films and articles comprising the films. The films are useful in coverlay applications and have advantageous optical properties. The present disclosure also relates to blends of polyimide precursor, polyacrylonitrile, and cellulosic polymer which can be used to obtain the filled polyimides.

Abstract: Flooring material comprising sheet-shaped floor elements (1) with a mainly square or rectangular shape. The floor elements (1) are provided with edges (2), a lower side (5) and an upper decorative layer (3). The floor elements (1) are intended to be joined by means of joining members (10). The floor elements (1) are provided with male joining members (10I) on a first edge (2I) while a second edge (2II) of the floor elements (1) are provided with a female joining member (10II). The male joining member (10I) is provided with a tongue (11) and a lower side (5) groove (12) while the female joining member (10II) is provided with a groove (13) and a cheek (14), the cheek (14) being provided with a lip (15). The floor elements (1) are provided with a male vertical assembly joining member (10III) on a third edge (2III) while a fourth, opposite, edge (2IV) is provided with female vertical assembly joining member (2IV).

Abstract: A large capacity car body for a pressure discharge railway hopper car has a plurality of end slope plates assemblies, each having a slope sheet, and a plurality of intermediate slope sheet units, each of inverted “V” shape. The intermediate slope sheet units and the end slope plates form the end walls of a plurality of hoppers. A crossridge frame is associated with each of the intermediate slope sheet units and together with the end frames supports side sheets and a top sheet. Top chord members and bottom chord members extend coextensively with and are welded to upper and lower edge portions of each side sheet. Edge portions of the top sheet overlap and are welded to upper leg portions of the two top chord members. The crossridge frames and chord members considerably increase the resistance of the side sheets and top sheet to deforming when the car body is pressurized during unloading.

Abstract: In a person transport vehicle, a roof structure is fixed on longitudinal sidewalls (1). In order to achieve a simple but highly functional structure, a longitudinal beam (3) for the roof is fixed to the area of the top side edges of each longitudinal side wall (1) and is provided with an at least approximately horizontal leg. The horizontal legs extend toward each other and carry in a weld-free and watertight manner an inherently stable roof plate (5) provided with integrated longitudinal channels (6, 7).
