Latest Patents
Gillard holds a patent for a "Method for producing a formed structural element." This invention relates to a method and apparatus for creating a formed structural element of fiber material that is bonded with synthetic resin. The process involves sprinkling or spraying a fine-grained or flowable synthetic resin bonding agent onto a nonwoven fabric made predominantly of natural fibers. The fabric, once permeated with the bonding agent, is fragmented and stored in a tower on a perforated female mold belonging to a molding press. The parts are precompressed using an air stream suctioned through the perforations. To achieve a stable shape, the synthetic resin bonding agent is hardened by a hot air stream conducted through the perforations in both the male and female molds.
