The present invention is concerned with manufacturing board from a fluid evolutive product, such as a plaster and water mixture. The process comprises pouring upon a conveyor a fluid evolutive product, such as a plaster and water mixture, contained in storage above the conveyor, through a transverse, parallel slit into which the product is introduced in continuous process through a number of nozzles which discharge into the storage product mass. A reinforcement may be introduced into the poured product. The invention offers as well mechanism for the implementation of the process and products manufactured by the process. Typically the invention is applied to plaster board manufacturing.

Apparatus for making plaster board

The present invention concerns the manufacture of objects made of plaster, essentially in the form of boards and, specifically, the pouring onto a moving conveyor of a mixture of plaster and water into a reservoir with an open bottom installed on top of said conveyor. It proposes to integrate the upstream rear wall of the reservoir within a surface of greater dimensions than the rear wall, and displacing said continuously, with the purpose of presenting a different portion of the surface as the upstream rear wall. The invention allows continuous cleaning of the upstream rear wall without disturbing the pouring process.

Device for the pouring of plaster

The present invention is concerned with regulation of evolutive pulp. It offers a regulation process and mechanism, said mechanism including an elastic shape-changing pneumatic valve, valve opening control means, and modulating means causing a variation of said valve opening either way from an opening setting achieved through control means. The present invention can be applied to a continuous process for mixing plaster.
