摘要:
A method of forming a gas impermeable joint in a fluid system includes: providing a tube having a metallic barrier layer disposed between an inner plastic layer and an outer plastic layer; forcing at least one of the inner plastic layer and the outer plastic layer into contact with a plastic surface of a component; and welding the at least one of the inner plastic layer and the outer plastic layer with the plastic surface to form the gas impermeable joint. The welding may include: spin welding, hot plate welding, vibration welding, and ultrasonic welding. The metallic barrier layer extends substantially to the component, thus improving the gas impermeability of the joint between the tube and the component.

An adjustable apparatus for sizing objects, mainly delicate foods, by the rotation of a set of at least 7 rollers, each roller having one less tooth so that the rollers move at progressively higher revolutions per minute, from the in-feed shear roller of 144 revolutions per minute to the discharge roller of 210 revolutions per minute. The rollers are shaped and finished by 7 to 12 flats, alternated with a crown in between each flat, cut the horizontal length of the roller. The rollers are then sandblasted over the entire circumference of the surface to a depth range of 280 to 300 micro-inches.
摘要:
A method for manufacturing a multilayer hose having reduced permeation of hydrocarbon fuel vapor, wherein the multilayer hose is useful as a hydrocarbon fuel transport hose, comprises the steps of: extruding a first fluoroelastomeric tubular structure having an inner surface and an outer surface; applying an adhesive on the outer surface of the first fluoroelastomeric tubular structure, wherein the adhesive is applied to the outer surface of the first fluoroelastomeric tubular structure using piezo electric technology comprising a piezo element disposed in an adhesive reservoir positioned at an exit end of an extruder for extruding the first fluoroelastomeric tubular structure. The adhesive reservoir comprising a plurality of nozzles equally spaced apart around the exit end of the extruder through which adhesive is discharged onto the surface of the first fluoroelastomeric tubular structure in a precise and uniform manner as the first fluoroelastomeric tubular structure exits the end of the extruder, the discharge of the adhesive being activated by application of an electric current applied to the piezo element causing the piezo element to rapidly oscillate in a precise and uniform manner causing the adhesive to be repeatedly discharged through the plurality of nozzles in a pulsating manner, whereby the adhesive is uniformly applied to the outer surface of the first fluoroelastomeric tubular structure; and extruding a second fluoroplastic tubular structure onto the first fluoroelastomeric tubular structure such that the adhesive is disposed between the first fluoroelastomeric tubular structure and the second fluoroplastic tubular structure.
