摘要:
A method for the continuous manufacture of an undulating or corrugated longitudinal material in which a strip is projected longitudinally in the form of transverse folds between two longitudinal walls defining a passage or corridor having a height exceeding the thickness of the strip, a longitudinal displacement of said walls being caused in the direction of projection of the strip at a speed lower than the linear projection speed and decreasing in the direction of movement, in such a manner as to cause the packing or bunching of the folds inside the passage or corridor along the length of the material.

A machine (300) and the process for manufacture of a unique completely pleated product (110) which is made from a continuous, flexible web (311) for the covering of windows and the like. The machinery consists of a production line (300) with at least a screen printing assembly (306), printing phase control apparatus (330), a unique pleating assembly (400 or 800) and an optional folding assembly (500) for stacking and receiving the final product. Screen printing and web travel phasing is performed in accordance with standard practices in the industry, while the pleating and folding of the finished product is performed by apparatus designed and constructed by the instant inventors. After predetermined patterns of adhesive or bonding material (212) have been applied to the continuous web (311), it is pleated by a paired roller assembly (400 or 800) and, through the optional use of an air knife assembly (500), folded into a collecting apparatus. The finished product (110) is a completely pleated structure consisting of front and rear pleated faces containing, interstitially, a multi-cellular structure. The finished product realizes a flexible, shading structure which can be compactly collapsed, revealing essentially none of the pleated surfaces. The finished product derives its uniqueness primarily from the fact that it is pleated from a single continuous web and that retroflexing of the web comprises complete folds in, or pleating of, the web.
摘要:
A material transfer arrangement having a pair of generally cylindrical adjacent rolls which are counter-rotatable about their respective cylindrical axes and which define therebetween a nip between which material passes is disclosed. There is a corresponding pair of spaced apart doctor blades, each in close proximity to a corresponding one of the rolls so that material may be conveyed between the roll nip and the space between the doctor blades. In one form, the nip passes material to the space between the doctor blades and that space has a downstream restriction which causes the material to compress in an accordion-like way forming a corrugated material web. In another form, the doctor blades function to deliver thermoplastic extrudate to the nip between the rolls to form elongated sheets or webs of plastic material of improved uniformity.

摘要:
An apparatus for continuously manufacturing a corrugated sheet having a varying fold width and also having fold lines extending either straight or in wavy or zig-zag fashion in a direction widthwise thereof. The apparatus includes upper and lower toothed rolls each made up of a group of toothed discs and having a circumferential groove defined between each neighboring toothed discs. At least one of the upper and lower toothed rolls is supported for adjustment in position relative to and in a direction towards and away from the other of the upper and lower toothed rolls. Upper and lower guide bars while extending in a direction parallel to the upper and lower toothed rolls are accommodated within the circumferential grooves for movement in a direction towards and away from each other over a distance corresponding to the height of each tooth of any one of the upper and lower toothed rolls. During a continuous passage of the web of sheet through a biting region defined between the upper and lower toothed rolls, the web of sheet is alternately folded by the interaction between the upper and lower toothed rolls to provide the corrugated sheet.
