摘要:
In a process for manufacturing a catalytic converter component, a ceramic unit is used that has been prepared by extruding green ceramic product through a die to form an extrusion having a honeycomb substrate structure in which tubular passages extend along the extrusion, the passages bounded by walls dividing adjacent passages from one another. The unit is obtained by cutting off a length of the extrusion and curing and firing it. The process further comprises flowing insulation material from one end of the unit into selected ones of the elongate passages, vaporizing a moisture content of the insulation material to form pores and curing the insulation material by using microwave irradiation to solidify the pores. The passages are selected so that the cured insulation material forms an internal thermal insulating barrier between a core zone of the unit and a radially outer zone of the unit.

A method for producing a finely subdivided insulating material includes the steps of: preparing a fluid composition by mixing together an alkaline silicate, a metal hydroxide and an impermeabilizing agent, heat-treating the composition so as to produce a plurality of small cavities in the composition, and finely subdividing the composition.

A method of filling a cavity in a building block with aminoplast resin foam comprises locating a template (6,7) against and in sealing relation to that face of the block having said cavity opening therefrom characterized in that an aperture (5) defined in said template and at least as large as the opening in the block which communicates with the cavity is aligned and registered with said opening, followed by passing curable aminoplast resin foam into the cavity under pressure to fill said cavity and form an upstand (9) of foam relative to the face of the block in the space defined by the thickness of the template, and then removing the template to leave at least some of said upstand projecting from said face.

Process for industrially filling differently structured cavities in building blocks with mouldings, having the following features: a) the mouldings are cut in the form of differently configured mineral-wool pads (1, 2) from mineral-wool boards supplied, b) the mineral-wool pads (1, 2) are then distributed in layers on at least two levels, c) the mineral-wool pads (1, 2) distributed in this way are respectively separated, arranged in rows and moved into a vertical position in order to be transported further, d) the vertically positioned mineral-wool pads (1, 2) are pushed off laterally in layers and distributed on at least two levels in a supply unit (A 170), wherein, for example, one level has large mineral-wool pads (1) and the other level has small mineral-wool pads (2) and the levels are arranged in accordance with the construction of the cavities of the building block; e) in a further position of the distributing unit (A 180), the mineral-wool pads (1, 2) are pushed into sheet-metal channels, moved up to the building blocks and sucked in there (A 190).

ICMUs (insulated concrete masonry units) having an inner load-bearing portion and one or two outer insulating portions are disclosed. Disregarding the insulation cores, heat flows from the outer side wall or walls to the inner portion through outer end walls and, in some embodiments, webs. These outer side walls and webs are heat bridges and are thinner and of significantly lower density than the other walls of the ICMU, thereby providing improved thermal insulation.Also disclosed are ICMUs with a vertical or horizontal recess in one outer insulating portion. Electrical conduit and/or plumbing can be placed into these recesses. In addition, corner ICMUs are disclosed which provide increased structural strength when used to construct a 90.degree. corner between two structural walls because of a special mid-wall in the corner ICMU.
摘要:
A method and apparatus for forming insulated concrete blocks in which at least two and preferably three concrete blocks are fed concurrently to the inlet end of the apparatus having a pair of opposed, continuous upper and lower conveyors for concurrently passing said blocks through the apparatus, and a foam injection system for delivering foam to the cavity or cavities formed between the blocks, wherein continuous strips of an impermeable material such as polyfilm are fed to bottom, ends and upper sides of the cavity or cavities to form an impermeable barrier between the foam and conveyors to substantially prevent escape of said foam from the said cavity or cavities. Former plates secured to end frames carried by the lower conveyor and former plates secured to transverse segments comprising the upper and lower conveyors interact with the former plates secured to end frames to provide a desired shape to the foam insulation.The center block of three concrete blocks forming a unit is split longitudinally after curing of the insulating foam to expose an aesthetic block face.
摘要:
A method of manufacturing a thermally insulated building block (54a) comprises foaming a quantity of foamable plastics material in an enclosed space (56) between a building block (54) and a closure means (52), the quantity of material being sufficient to fill the enclosed space (56). The foamable material may be injected into a cavity in the block onto an outer surface of the block (54) or onto the closure means (52) prior to locating the block (54) and closure means (52) relative to each other to form the enclosed space (56) therebetween. The block (54) is transported between upper and lower parallel endless belts (55, 50) during foaming and either belt (55, 50) may provide the closure means (52). If the lower belt (50) provides the closure means (52) the upper belt (55) maintains the block (54) in contact with the closure means (52) during foaming.

In a method of making a gaseous emissions treatment component, a ‘green’ ceramic mix is extruded through a die to form an extrusion having cells extending along the extrusion, the cells being bounded by walls dividing adjacent cells from one another. In concert with the extruding, metal is fed through the die with the extruded mix. A length of the extrusion and associated metal is then cut off and fired to form the component.
