Abstract:
The invention concerns a belt or chain drive with at least one belt-shaped or chain-shaped drive element (1) conducted via drive or deflection disks (2, 3). For the accurate detection of the movement or for the exact transport of a component, movable entraining elements (7) are located in the belt-shaped or chain-shaped drive element (1) transverse to the movement direction of the drive element (1), between a withdrawal position and an extended entraining position, and an actuation device (11), by means of which the entraining elements (7) can be moved into the entraining position in a non-curved area of the drive element (1), is assigned to the drive element (1).
Abstract:
A wooden wick for use in a wax candle comprising a strip of a predetermined wood having each of a first predetermined length, a first predetermined width and a first predetermined thickness. Such wick further includes a booster member having each of a second predetermined length, a second predetermined width and a second predetermined thickness adhered to the strip of wood.
Abstract:
Device for producing and/or processing panels includes a panel transport device utilizing two double-belt conveyors for transporting panels along a transport path. A processing device is used for processing the panels during their transporting by the panel transport device. Each of the two double-belt conveyors includes an upper endless belt and a lower endless belt having transport strand sides essentially parallel to the transport path and deflection devices arranged to at the ends of the transport strand sides. A plurality of guide rollers are arranged between the deflection devices of at least one of the endless belts to support the transport strand side of the at least one endless belt. At least one roller cassette is arranged to support several of the plurality of guide rollers.
Abstract:
Method for manufacturing floor panels having a top layer having a composition based on a synthetic material. At least at two opposite sides, the floor panels have profiled edge areas that include at least coupling parts. For manufacturing the floor panels, one starts from a board-shaped material, and the floor panels are formed at least partially by way of a laser treatment of the board-shaped material.
Abstract:
Systems, including method and apparatus, for processing workpieces driven automatically along a linear path to a plurality of positions disposed substantially along the linear path. In some embodiments, a workpiece may be processed at one or more of the positions using two or more processing stations, such as a first processing station that cuts the workpiece into segments and a second processing station that performs another processing operation on the workpiece.
Abstract:
An optimizing planer infeed system for feeding an array of workpieces downstream to a planer includes an apparatus for setting the size of the gaps between successive linearly aligned workpieces so that each gap between successive workpieces provides enough time for at least one of movable cutting elements in the planer and movable guiding elements to be moved to their optimized position corresponding to the next successive workpiece.
Abstract:
Method of manufacturing multi piece curved molding from planar material including the steps of, milling locating holes in the bottom side of sheet material proximate ends of curved sections, milling curved section from sheet material including the finished outer radius, the finished inner radius and milled ends, milling the profile to produce the profiled top side on curved section, placing locating holes in corresponding locating pins in a precision cut off fixture and precision cutting ends of curved section thereby producing a precision cut end and discarding waste portion.
Abstract:
A method and a system for glulams fabrication, comprising obtaining wood pieces of a target length from raw materials; and assembling them into structural timbers of a target thickness in a continuous line, whereby moisture content, end joints, mixing and applying of adhesives, glue line pressure and clamping time are continuously controlled.
Abstract:
A driving assembly for driving panels and plate elements in general to be processed comprises a central framework for supporting a driving chain continuously entrained on a driving pulley and an idle pulley, a plurality of panel driving shoes being coupled to the chain.The main feature of the invention is that the driving assembly further comprises, on a portion of an active arm of the driving chain, actuator elements for removing the drive shoes from a panel sliding plane, to allow a processing tool to perform a lot of desired machining operations on the panels.
Abstract:
An optimizing planermill system includes a control system and a workpiece feed path for feeding an array of workpieces linearly downstream to an optimizing planer. The gap size between successive workpieces is set so that each gap provides enough time for relative movement of at least one of movable cutting elements in the planer and movable guiding elements so as to obtain relative movement between the cutting elements and the workpiece being next fed in for optimized positioning.
