Abstract

1,003,031. Vacuum forming. DUNLOP RUBBER CO. Ltd. Oct. 5, 1961 [Oct. 5, 1960; Jan. 19, 1961], Nos. 36090/60 and 2150/61. Heading B5A. In the vacuum forming of a large thermoplastic sheet, the pressure on the upper surface thereof is reduced as it softens so that it is retained in substantially planar configuration. Theremoplastic sheet 1 is gripped between frame 4, 5 and maintained by elastomeric strip 8 in sealing contact with vertically reciprocable box 10 as it is heated from above and below, by electrical elements arrayed in overlapping relationship within box 10 and lower heating unit 17, whilst the box 10 is evacuated to counteract any sagging tendencies of the sheet 1 until a drop in pressure of the order of the sheet weight/unit length is attained. The lower heating unit is removed and shaping former 22 raised to sealingly engage lower frame member 5 whereupon, after removal of the box 10, air is withdrawn through holes 25 in the former 22 to mould sheet 1 into contact with the surface thereof. The sealing strip 7 of frame 4, 5 may be retained by adhesive within a groove therein and may be of V-section. Plasticized or unplasticized vinyl resins, polyethylene and polypropylene and polyacrylates may be formed by the method into ship's hulls, dishes, buckets, plates and ashtrays. The seal 8 may be of silicone rubber, polyurethane or neoprene rubber. Specification 972,823 is referred to.
