A Vacuum Insulating Glazing Unit (VIGU) comprises two or more glass lites (panes) spaced apart from one another and hermetically bonded to an edge seal assembly therebetween. The resulting cavity between the lites is evacuated to create at least one insulating vacuum cavity within which are disposed a plurality of stand-off members to maintain separation between the lites. The edge seal assembly is preferably compliant in the longitudinal (i.e., edgewise) direction to allow longitudinal relative motion between the two lites (e.g., from thermal expansion). The longitudinal compliance may be obtained by imprinting a three-dimensional pattern into the edge seal material. The edge seal assembly is preferably bonded to the lites with a first bond portion that is hermetic and a second bond portion that is load-resistant. Methods for producing VIGUs and/or compliant edge seal assemblies and VIGU and edge seal apparatus are disclosed.

The thermal energy venting system includes an insulation board disposed in the cavity between adjacent studs and other areas of a domicile or building to form venting channels directing excess heat through a roof/ridge vent. The insulation board is a non-porous laminate formed by a rigid foam core covered or sheathed with a reflective polymeric facer or plastic. The insulation board provides a thermal barrier for conduction, convection and radiation aspects of thermal energy transfer. The installation of the insulation board forms an envelope that reflects exterior thermal energy and interior thermal energy to maintain comfortable interior temperatures with minimal heating/cooling energy expenditure and costs.

A floor panel for a floor of a passenger cabin of a mobile platform is provided, which comprises a base body with an integrated cable channel and a cover element covering the cable channel. The base body is realized in the form of a sandwich component including two honeycomb structures, between which the cable channel is arranged. The cover element is firmly attached to the base body, thereby creating a self-supporting floor panel. Since the cover element is firmly attached to the base body, the thickness and weight of the base body may be reduced.

Structured-core laminate panels and methods of forming the same

Номер: US20140013691A1
Автор: Charles H. Moore, John E.C. Willham, M. Hoyt Brewster
Принадлежит: 3Form LLC

A structured-core laminate panel can be made in an efficient, structurally sound manner without the use of adhesives (film or liquid forms) using materials with different melt or glass transition temperatures. In one implementation, a manufacturer positions one or more resin substrates about a structured core, which comprises a relatively high melt or glass transition temperature compared with that of the one or more resin substrates. The manufacturer heats the assembly to at least the glass transition temperature of the resin substrates, but not to the melt or glass transition temperature of the structured core. This allows the one or more resin substrates to melt and bond (mechanically, chemically, or both) to the structured core on one side (or inner surface), while maintaining a substantially planar or original conformation on an opposing side (or outer surface).

The present invention is a twin-wall rigid plastic sheet intended to provide protection and insulation in applications where a small bending radius for the twin-wall plastic sheet is desired. The twin-wall configuration includes a smooth or flat outer single sheet and a contoured inner single sheet separated by a series of similar plastic ribs to form a connected row of longitudinal cavities or “channels”. The inner wall is contoured in a concave manner to form a relief between each rib. When the twin-wall sheet is flexed, each relief distorts to minimize stress in the transverse direction while maintaining high rigidity in the longitudinal direction. In another embodiment of the present invention, multiple single sheets separated by ribs and contoured similarly to that of the inner wall are added between the contoured inner wall and smooth outer wall. 1. An extruded thermoplastic twin-wall sheet with a Modulus of Elasticity greater than 2 GPa , having a structure comprising: a first wall comprising a single generally flat sheet; a second wall comprising a single sheet generally parallel to , extending the length of , and separated from the first wall , having a transverse contour of a form incorporating a series of alternating flat and arced sections each with an apex toward the first wall and extending the length of the second wall in the direction of extrusion; and a plurality of ribs located between , perpendicular to , and connected to the first wall and second wall and each rib equidistant between two adjacent arcs in the contour of the second wall and extending the length of the first and second walls in the direction of extrusion.2.

The present invention relates to a method for making a cementitious mortar based composite panel comprising portions made of translucent material which are developed from a first side ( 1′ ) of the panel ( 1 ) to a second side ( 1″ ) opposite to the first side. The method includes making a monolithic structure ( 3 ) made of light translucent material provided with a base ( 10 ) and a plurality of elements ( 12,12′,12″ ) which develop from said base ( 10 ). The structure is made by means of a plastic injection molding process. The method includes arranging such a structure inside a formwork so as to arrange all the elements in the predetermined position for the subsequent step of pouring in a single operation. The method finally includes finishing off the cementitious mortar obtained following the hardening of the cementitious mortar, by eliminating said base ( 10 ) of said structure ( 3 ) and by defining said flat sides ( 1′,1″ ) of said panel ( 1 ).

A building unit encasement device encapsulates at least one unit of building material that is known in the art for building structures, so as to protect wooden or steel units from moisture and insects that can destroy the building unit. The device provides an elongated, rectangular container that encapsulates lumber. The device provides four walls that form a cavity to receive a wood or steel building unit. At least two of the walls form a hinged relationship that allows air to flow into the cavity for circulation and drying the building unit. A male-female connector is comprised of a cylindrical protrusion having ribs that interact with lips on a receptacle to prevent high winds from removing the cylindrical protrusion from the receptacle. 1. A building unit encasement device , the device comprising:an elongated container defined by a vinyl material composition,the container further defined by a first lateral wall having a first hinge edge and a first depressed edge, the container further defined by a second lateral wall having a second hinge end and a second depressed edge, the first and second lateral walls disposed in a generally parallel relationship,whereby the first lateral wall and the second lateral wall are adapted to be cut at an angle,the container further defined by a first end wall having a first protruding edge and a first edge,the container further defined by a second end wall having a second protruding edge and a second edge, the first and second end walls disposed in a generally parallel relationship,the wide and end walls joined to form an elongated rectangle defined by a cavity,the second hinge edge of the second lateral wall adapted to hingedly join the first edge of the first end wall;an elongated cylindrical protrusion extending along the first protruding edge of the first end wall, the cylindrical protrusion defined by a plurality of spaced-apart ribs,whereby the cylindrical protrusion detachably mates with the first depressed edge of the ...
