The invention relates to a process and a device for the production of polyurethane clock foam, in which the reaction mixture, after flowing through a mixer, flows freely from an outflow opening and then flows through an accumulation chamber, in which a static pressure is built up, a gap and finally an expansion chamber.

Method for the production of polyurethane block foam

The invention relates to a method of producing rebonded foam blocks in a box mould having a base, a plurality of mutually adjacent mould side walls standing thereupon and a plunger movable in the direction of the base, in which at least one of the mould side walls may be swiveled about a substantially horizontal swivel axis mounted on the base between an outwardly directed position and a substantially vertical position, the method involving mixing the foam flakes with a binder, swiveling at least one of the mould side walls outwards such that the cross-sectional area of the box mould increases from the bottom upwards, introducing the foam flakes into the box mould, adjusting the at least one mould side wall so that the cross-sectional area of the box mould is substantially constant over its height, compressing the foam flakes by means of the plunger to the desired density or foam block height, thereby bonding together the foam flakes and removing the finished foam block from the mould.

Method and device for producing rebonded foam blocks

An installation for producing a three-dimensional shaped plastic foam part, comprises a plurality of tanks respectively receiving plastic foam granules and a liquid primary material, a device for reducing the plastic foam granules to a predetermined size, conduits connecting the reducing device to respective tanks receiving the plastic foam granules, a weighing tank having an inlet arranged to receive the plastic foam granules from the reducing device and an outlet, a device for mixing the plastic foam granules with the liquid primary material, further conduits connecting the mixing device to respective tanks receiving the liquid primary material and to the outlet of the reducing device, an intermediate storage tank comprising a weighing device and arranged to receive the plastic foam granules mixed with the liquid primary material, a mold having a mold cavity, and a supply line connecting the intermediate storage tank to the mold cavity, the supply line comprising a conveying device having an inlet and a conveying conduit connected to the intermediate storage tank, the conveying conduit being connectable to the conveying device inlet.

Installation for producing shaped plastic foam parts

A method of producing a three-dimensional shaped plastic foam part comprises the steps of mixing plastic foam granules of a predetermined range of sizes and of different hardness in a predetermined mixing ratio to obtain a mixture of the plastic foam granules, mixing the mixture of the plastic foam granules with a liquid primary material until the granules are coated with the liquid primary material and a mixture of coated plastic foam granules is obtained, feeding a preset quantity of the mixture of coated plastic foam granules into a mold cavity of a mold closed on all sides, reducing the volume of the mold cavity at least in partial regions thereof after it has been filled with the mixture of coated plastic foam granules, triggering a reaction of the liquid primary material by applying pressure and heat until a continuous cellular structure of plastic foam has been formed and the plastic foam granules have been interconnected by the cellular structure of plastic foam after the volume of the mold cavity has been reduced at least in partial regions thereof, ventilating gaseous reaction media from the mold cavity through openings in the sides of the mold, and removing the three-dimensional shaped part from the mold cavity.

Method of producing shaped plastic foam parts

A three-dimensional shaped part comprises at least one first portion having an equal density throughout the volume thereof and comprising a plastic foam of a primary material having a cellular structure and plastic foam granules interconnected by the cellular structure of the plastic foam, and at least one second portion having an equal density throughout the volume thereof, the second portion being adjacent the first portion and comprising a plastic foam of a primary material having a cellular structure and elastically precompressed plastic foam granules interconnected by the cellular structure of the plastic foam. 70% to 90% of the volume of the shaped part is formed by the plastic foam granules, and the density of the second portion is greater than the density of the first portion.

Shaped plastic foam part having portions of different density

The invention relates to a method and an apparatus for the continuous production of foam blocks or sheets having an essentially rectangular cross-section from a foamable, liquid reaction mixture, possibly in the form of a liquid froth, in which the reaction mixture is applied from a stationary mixing head onto a moving lower facing sheet inclined in the longitudinal direction. An upper covering sheet is supplied from above and is brought into contact with the reaction mixture by means of a deflecting element. The deflecting element is flat in the longitudinal direction, so that a channel with an essentially constant cross-section is formed between the lower facing sheet and the upper covering sheet guided by the deflecting element, the length of which channel in a longitudinal direction is several times greater than its central height H.sub.M. The deflecting element can be oscillated about an axis at the entry end where it rests on the reaction mixture by the application of pressure.

Method for the continuous production of foam blocks or sheets

In the continuous production of polyurethane block foam, in particular from fast-reacting reaction mixtures which expand with rise time of less than 1.5 minutes, to achieve a good foam quality and a rectangular cross-section a centrally disposed mixer (44) is used, disposed downstream of which is a rubber-elastic plate (22), which is located in the feeding table (21) and in turn has a centrally disposed prop (33), associated with which, at right angles to the production direction and mounted laterally and symmetrically relative to said prop, are at least two adjustable props (32).

Apparatus for continuous production of polyurethane block foam

The invention is directed to a device for the discontinuous production of block foam comprising a mixing unit, a means for moving the unit approximately vertically into and/or out of a mold with the unit having reaction component feed lines, a stirring means, and a mixing container having a plate with feed openings for the reaction components characterized in that
