The invention is to apparatus and method for a plasticizing batch process used in manufacturing building materials such as sheet goods, roofing shingles, and various sizes of dimensional lumber products. Recycled waste plastics and other not plastic materials are used in a batch process to plasticize the waste materials into a mixture used in molding various products. A intensive mixture mixes and plasticizes the waste materials of a predetermined weight until the plasticized mixture reaches a predetermine temperature. The material is then expelled to a material mover to dispense the plasticized material by weight to molds in which the plasticized material is pressed to form various products.

Process for making non-extruded molded boards and sheet products

A device for installation and removal of a wrist pin from a piston includes a press pin having an upper end for engaging a hydraulic ram and a lower end section of reduced diameter which engages into the bore of the upper end of a wrist pin. The lower end of the wrist pin is engaged by an end section of reduced diameter of a guide pin, the end section of reduced diameter having at least one groove encircling its circumference and having an O-ring engaged in the groove. The press pin, wrist pin and guide pin engage together to form a substantially rectilinear rod-like structure, enabling the wrist pin to be inserted through the shaft of the piston and eye of the connecting rod without damage to the shaft.

Piston wrist pin installation and removal device and method of using

A molding apparatus, using raw material substantially comprised of crumbed rubber tires, and producing end products of durability and structural integrity. Products such as fence posts and dimensioned pieces like dimension-lumber products, have a hardened, dense outer wall structure surrounding a comparatively less dense and relatively porous central core, with the attendent structure integrity advantages of tubular and hollow-walled products. Heat fused raw material is fed under pressure, as from a screw extruder mechanism, through selectively controlled input valves to mold bodies, with the mold bodies carried in a chilled environment to establish fluid flow paths and hardening sequences leading to the desired end product body structure.

Extruding machine and end products

A porous flexible hose primarily of crumbed rubber and synthetic rubber reclaimed from rubber tires, ground to a relatively small granular size, with metal removed; such as, for example, would pass through a 30-mesh screen, process-mixed through an extruder, with a much smaller binder mix of primarily polyethylene, in the order of 25% by weight, and with approximately 0.5% of the mixture added sulphur and 0.5% oil that can be random mixed grades of automobile engine oil. The resulting product is useful as a soil watering soaker hose that has a high degree of flexibility along its length. It is a water leaking soaker hose formed in the process through the extruder with limited foaming from steam originating from absorbed moisture in the crumbed, reclaimed rubber tire material, and from residual gases venting from the material mix, with product mix heating in the extruder, forming some open cell fluid flow paths. The foaming with steam and gases from the mix also form labyrinth passageways between the rubber tire granules and the polyethylene binder mix, and also through the binder mix that is non-compatible with the rubber granules but that forms a physical interconnective structural material binder therefor.

Soaker hose

A porous pipe primarily of rubber and synthetic rubber reclaimed from rubber tires, ground to a relatively small granular size, with metal removed; such as, for example, would pass through a 30-mesh screen, process-mixed through a pipe extruder, with a much smaller binder mix of primarily polyethylene, along with vinyl, ABS binder, and a trace of attaclay. The resulting product is useful as a subsurface irrigation buried pipe, having high structural integrity effectively resisting soil-loading pipe collapse, and it even resists collapse from moderately large rocks in the soil, and yet has a high degree of flexibility along its length. A pipe is provided with cross sectional area of pipe wall more than twice the cross sectional area of the pipe opening. It is a waterleaking pipe formed in the process through the extruder with limited foaming from steam originating from absorbed moisture in the ground, reclaimed rubber tire material, and from residual gasses venting from the material mix, with product mix heating in the extruder, forming some open cell fluid flow paths. The foaming with steam and gasses from the mix also form labyrinth passageways between the rubber tire granuals and the polyethylene binder mix, and also through the binder mix that is non-compatible with the rubber granules but that forms a physical interconnective structural material binder therefor.

Method for extruding porous irrigation pipe

A substantially thick, resilient pad is bent around the neck of an animal and secured to the body of the animal with straps. The thickness of the pad prevents the animal from reaching the chest, back, belly and rear extremities of the animal with his mouth to prevent damage to injuries and surgical areas on the animal. The resilient pad preferably extends a substantial distance along the length of the animal and can serve as a protector for the animal when in a vehicle or the like.

Animal protector

A heat and pressure moldable material end product made from injection or extrusion molding processes using a mixture of reclaimed pre-vulcanized rubber bits and resinous thermoplastic material bits as raw material. The reset end product is a homogeneously incomplete mixture of the raw material, including reset resin and rubber mixture portions and rubber bits per se in a bonded inter-relationship. The porosity of the end product is controllable by the relative amount and size of rubber particles in the raw material mixture.

Underground irrigation porous pipe

A corona coupling system with a plurality of corona coupling unit blocks, individually snapped on spark plug wires and coil wires, interconnected by wire for corona coupling distribution between the spark plug and coil wires. The blocks are interconnected by two generally parallel, insulated wires clamped in place running through each two-piece block by a stamped conductive metal plate having formed-down corners biting into and through insulation on the block interconnecting wires as plastic top and bottom parts of each block are pressed and sonically welded together. The stamped conductive metal plate is formed with a downward longitudinally extended ridge positioned in the blocks so that the bottom edge rests against and along the insulation of the wire on which each block is mounted.
