Latest Patents
One of Oliver's latest patents is titled "Process and apparatus for producing shaped profile sections." This invention outlines a method for producing a shaped profile section in a continuous line process. It involves providing an outer facing web, an inner facing web, and laying down liquid foam reactants in the outer facing web. The method pre-forms the outer facing web into a desired outer profile shape before laying down the liquid foam reactants. The inner facing web is shaped with the liquid foam reactants within the pre-formed outer facing web to create a desired inner profile shape for the shaped profile section. Additionally, the patent includes an apparatus for producing a shaped profile section and a shaped profile section resulting from the method.
Another significant patent by Oliver is for "Insulating foam sections." This invention features a pipe insulating section that includes a generally cylindrical hollow phenolic foam body of substantially uniform cross-section. The body has an inner facing web and an outer facing web. The phenolic foam body is slit longitudinally to create section halves that can be opened to wrap around a pipe for insulation. The section halves are linked by the outer web on one side, while the facing ends are faced with the inner web. The inner web may consist of paper, and the outer web may be made of aluminum foil. The manufacturing apparatus for this elongate shaped phenolic section includes an outer mold for forming the outer facing into a cylindrical shape and an inner mandrel for shaping the inner facing.
