A press for forming a container with a bottom profile is provided. The press may have a profile pad that is secured within a base of the press or is secured to a die core riser that is axially movable up and down. The press may have one or more biasing members that accommodate expansion in certain tooling components during operation of the press. The press may have a tool pack of tool components located within a part of the fixed base wherein the tool pack is removable from a top surface of the ...

A method and machine separates profiled elements from a plurality of profiled elements. The machine includes a structure having opposed first and second ends and opposed sides, the structure receiving profiled elements extending between the first and second ends. A first separating device more evenly distributes the profiled elements between the sides. A displacement member displaces a portion of the profiled elements away from the remainder of the profiled elements. A gripper receives the porti...

The sealing profile (5) comprises an inherently stable carrier rail (7) which is injection-coated over a part of its periphery with an elastomeric profile strip (8). On a peripheral portion (10) without elastomer lie heads (9) of fixing members (6) which are screwed into roof guides (4) of the folding soft top (2). Sealing lips (17, 18) take care of the sealing in relation to a side window (21). A further sealing lip (22) effects sealing in relation to the roof cover (24).

A finely profiled copper electrode for electro-erosive boring having a multi-lobal cross-section of a plurality of radially extending arms having a thickness of less than about 80 microns and terminating within an outer circumference of less than about 600 microns, the electrode being formed by cold rolling a calibrated hard drawn copper wire with the ends of the arms being cut to size and shape. Such electrodes are especially useful in boring the openings in a nozzle plate for spinning profiled...

A profiled bottom bag made of paper, plastic foil or a similar foldable material has at least one profiled end provided at its outside with a handle-forming strip whose length is essentially that of the profiled end. A handle section extends between connecting areas and, in contrast to the connecting areas, is narrower. The handle-forming strip forms part of a prefabricated cut section encompassing a separating strip which extends under the handle section of the handle-forming strip without bein...

A profiled clamping jaw for a clamping device has a base body (12) and a clamping surface (14) arranged on the base body and adaptable to the surface profile of a workpiece (54). To make it possible to adapt by simple means the clamping surface (14) of the profiled clamping jaw (10) to the surface profile of the workpiece, the claiming surface (14) is composed of a plurality of pressure pieces (16) movable with respect to the base body (12) and capable of being locked thereon in a determined cla...

A custom profiled flexible conduit system conveys a fluid therethrough between two locations, which may be moving relative to one another. The conduit profile includes a wall with a nonuniform thickness selected to control a diffusion rate of the fluid when conveyed through, or when standing within the conduit. The conduit profile defines a main chamber and optional auxiliary chambers. During a collapse of the conduit, caused by a kink for instance, restricted fluid flow may be sustained through...

A profiled cylinder for teaseling and/or fluffing machines of the type having a generally cylindrical outer peripheral surface and provided at its ends with support hubs for its rotation, in which the radially outer peripheral surface has a particular profile caused by a plurality of variously arranged geometrical forms or surface portions disposed for abraiding contact with a fabric which is to be treated by passage through the machine.

An electrodeless discharge lamp has a thinner wall portion located proximate a position of high applied power. Since the heat capacity of the thinner wall portion is smaller then the remainder of the bulb wall, the thinner wall portion cools faster when the lamp power is turned off, and the condensable part of the fill tends to condense at this bulb wall portion. When the power is turned on again, since the thinner wall portion is located at a position of high power application, the fill is avai...

A tread design for a pneumatic tire of radial construction for high-speed vehicles is provided. The tire has a height-to-width ratio of .ltoreq.0.6 with a tread design that is tied to the direction of rotation. The tread design comprises profiled elements that are steeply oriented in the circumferential direction at an angle to the equatorial plane of the tire and are arranged in the shape of V's. The profiled elements extend from a central portion of the tread into shoulder regions of the tire,...
