A process of forming a shaped, dimensionally stable tampon includes the steps of: radially compressing a tampon blank to form a dimensionally stable intermediate pledget having an intermediate pledget diameter and a longitudinal axis; placing the intermediate pledget into a hollow carrier and inserting the intermediate pledget and hollow carrier into a mold; urging the intermediate pledget into the mold via a ram bearing on an end of the intermediate pledget contained within the hollow carrier and withdrawing the hollow carrier from the mold to permit the exposed end of the intermediate pledget to substantially fill the mold and to form the shaped, dimensionally stable tampon; removing the shaped, dimensionally stable tampon from the mold; and enclosing the shaped, dimensionally stable tampon in a primary package that conforms to the shape thereof. The mold has an access opening through which the hollow carrier can be withdrawn.

Compression molded articles employing circumferential surfaces having friction-enhancing patterns to contact substrates during wet chemical processes are disclosed. An article such as an annular body may be formed by a compression molding technique. By including a patterned surface as part of an outer circumferential surface of the annular body, frictional contact between the annular body and the substrate may be enhanced as friction-reducing fluids associated with a wet chemical processes may be directed away from the desired friction contact area between the annular body and the substrate. In this manner, frictional contact may be enhanced and the substrate may be effectively positioned and moved during the wet chemical process to improve the effectively of the process.

Elastomer members for a torsional vibration damper, methods of making the same, and torsional vibration dampers having the elastomer members are disclosed. The elastomer members have a first major surface and an opposing second major surface with opposing side joining the first major surface to the second major surface, have a median sagittal plane extending parallel to the first major surface and the second major surface, and a transverse plane perpendicular to the median sagittal plane. In a cross-sectional geometry in a plane bisecting the median sagittal plane and the transverse plane, a thickness of the elastomer member changes along the median sagittal plane in a direction parallel to the transverse plane with a first thickness at both opposing sides and a second thickness at the transverse plane, where the second thickness is greater than the first thicknesses.

There is little fluctuation in amount of short fibers among individual products of fiber substrate. No damage is caused to a mold for the fiber substrate. Continuous production of the fiber substrates is possible. A method of manufacturing a fiber substrate includes the steps of: preparing slurry by dispersing short fibers in a dispersion medium; pouring the slurry into a cylindrical mold from above the cylindrical mold, the slurry being directed to a slurry diffusion member disposed in the center of the cylindrical mold and having an upward pointing conical or pyramidal shape; pouring the dispersion medium or water onto the slurry diffusion member from above the slurry diffusion member to cause the short fibers adhering to the slurry diffusion member to fall down, after the step of pouring the slurry; and discharging the dispersion medium from the cylindrical mold to accumulate the short fibers in the cylindrical mold to obtain a fiber aggregate.

Methods of compression molding powdered polytetrafluoroethylene resins to produce composite articles of manufacture having at least two distinct layers of two types of PTFE resin are disclosed. A first layer of resin, preferably including a filler, is placed in a compression mold and partially compressed at a relatively low pressure. A second layer of resin, preferably virgin resin, is then added to the mold and both layers are simultaneously fully compressed. After compression, the resulting composite preform is preferably sintered and coined to create a finished PTFE material or product. In a preferred embodiment, the partial compression step is performed at pressures of less than 500 psi. It has been found that modified PTFE resins provide improved resistance to cold flow and also provide better binding between filled and unfilled (virgin) layers and thus are used in certain preferred embodiments.

A process for the manufacture of thin-walled elasto-porous elements in the form of bushings in metal-rubber material (MR), comprises the steps of: obtaining wire fragments in the form of spirals having a lead equal to the spiral diameter, forming a flat blank from said spiral segments; pressing the blank into a roll; placing the roll into a mold; placing some elastic medium inside said roll; and pressing the roll in several passes by axial compression together with the elastic medium elements transforming the axial compression into radial pressure on the roll to be compressed.

A molding apparatus includes a plurality of deep-draw compression molds. Each of the molds includes a mold cavity and an associated mold core. A rotating support structure operatively supports the mold cavities and the mold cores relative to each other. The molds open and close as they travel around a closed path defined by the support structure. A mold material discharge mechanism deposits a predetermined amount of mold material in each of the molds. A heat source superheats the molds, and a mold closing mechanism closes the superheated molds, compressing the mold material between the mold cavities and the mold cores to form a deep-draw component A coolant source rapidly and actively cools the molds, and a mold opening mechanism opens the cooled molds. An ejector is disposed to eject the deep draw components from the molds. A method of molding deep-draw components is also disclosed. The system and method of the present invention facilitate compression molding of deep-draw components.

A press for producing a pellet from powdered material comprises a press frame and a pressing unit arranged therein, at least one upper press punch and/or at least one lower press punch, as well as at least one receptacle for powdered material. At least one upper drive unit has at least one upper drive motor for moving the upper press punch and/or at least one lower drive unit having at least one lower drive motor for moving the lower press punch and/or the receptacle. The at least one upper drive unit acts laterally offset on the at least one upper press punch via an upper force transmission element and/or the at least one lower drive unit acts laterally offset on the at least one lower press punch and/or the receptacle via a lower force transmission element. At least one upper spring element is arranged between the upper force transmission element and the at least one upper drive unit and/or at least one lower spring element is arranged between the lower force transmission element and the at least one lower drive unit.

There is proposed and provided a plastic bottle the longitudinal dimension (height) of which is decreased substantially when the bottle is manufactured, as compared with the time when the bottle is filled with contents, a method for manufacturing the plastic bottle, and an apparatus for manufacturing the plastic bottle. When the bottle is manufactured, the bottle being constructed so that a longitudinal part or the whole of the bottle, except a mouth portion at the upper end, has a bellows shape in the horizontal direction, the bottle is molded in a state of having substantially smaller volume and height than the volume and height at the time when the bottle is filled with contents, and when an empty portion is formed in the bottle by an operation of drinking up the contents, the bottle can be made again in a state of having substantially smaller volume and height than the volume and height at the time when the bottle has been filled with contents.
