A device for treating a continuously advancing material web with ultrasound includes an ultrasound generator and a sonotrode, rigidly connected with the former in a manner so as to transmit ultrasound. The sonotrode has a face which lies opposite a counter-tool. The material web is passed through the gap. The module composed of the ultrasound generator and the sonotrode is connected with the machine frame via a piezoelectric actuator, by means of which small displacements of the face of the sonotrode relative to the circumference surface of the counter-roller can be balanced out.

Carpet material with at least a proportion of uncleaned used carpets is shredded to form a fiber-like wooly mass. The carpet material contains a thermoplastic binder with a low melting point, for example polypropylene, which can be derived from the used carpets or be added. Furthermore, a proportion of fiber-like wood chips is added to the carpet material. The total mass is compressed to form the molded part or panel, at a temperature which lies above the plasticizing point of the thermoplastic binder, but below the plasticizing point of any other thermoplastic components of the carpet material.

Molded park from recycled used-carpets

Carpet material with at least a proportion of uncleaned used carpets is shredded to form a fiber-like wooly mass. The carpet material contains a thermoplastic binder with a low melting point, for example polypropylene, which can be derived from the used carpets or be added. Furthermore, a duroplastically hardening binder, for example phenolic resin, is added to the carpet material. The carpet material is compressed to form the molded part or panel with these two binders, at a temperature which lies above the plasticizing point of the thermoplastic binder, but below the plasticizing point of any other thermoplastic components of the carpet material.

Molded part and method of its production

Carpet material with at least a proportion of uncleaned used carpets is shredded to form a fiber-like wooly mass. The carpet material contains a thermoplastic binder with a low melting point, for example polypropylene, which can be derived from the used carpets or be added. On at least one side of the carpet material, a cover layer of wood chips is provided. The carpet material, together with the layers of the adhesive-coated wood chips which form the cover layers, is compressed to form the molded part or panel, at a temperature which lies above the plasticizing point of the thermoplastic binder, but below the plasticizing point of any other thermoplastic components of the carpet material.

A hydraulically supported roll includes a stationary crosshead extending through a rotatable hollow roll, which is heated at its inner and outer circumferences. A thermostatic control and regulating device is provided to keep the temperatures at the inner circumference and the outer circumference of the hollow roll at the same level during the heatin-up and/or cooling-down phase.

Apparatus for controlling the heating and cooling of a roll

In a hydraulically supported roll including a rotatable hollow cylinder and a stationary crosshead, transverse end seals are provided to seal a longitudinal chamber formed in the clearance space between the crosshead and the hollow cylinder. Each transverse end seal includes a roller bearing having a first bearing ring rotatable with the hollow cylinder and a second bearing ring mounted on the crosshead. The first bearing ring includes a first surface, which along with a second surface formed on a ring secured to the crosshead, defines a clearance gap. The gap has a width of less than 0.1 mm. The first bearing ring seals the longitudinal chamber at the inner circumference of the hollow cylinder and the first and second gap defining surfaces are located on parts that are axially restrained with respect to the crosshead.

Roll having improved transverse end seals

A device for applying a treatment medium, especially in foam form, to a running web of material, especially a rug web, with an application beam extending transversely to the web of material, the application beam having a longitudinal slot, through which the treatment medium emerges onto the web of material. On the side opposite the slot an elastic cushion which presses the web of material against the sliding surface of the application beam is arranged on the back of the web of material. The cushion may be an inflatable elastic hollow body or a foam material cushion.
