Abstract
Abstract TETRAHEDRAL HOLLOW ARTICLES ARE PRODUCED BY FORMING A TUBE FROM A TRAVELLING WEB AND PASSING THE TUBE THROUGH A RIGID GUIDE MEANS CONTACTING THE TUBE IN AT LEAST TWO DIAMETRICALLY OPPOSITE REGIONS SO AS TO DISPLACE THE POSITION OF UNDERSIRABLE KINKS IN THE ARTICLES FORMED. SUBSEQUENTLY SPACED APART TRANSVERSE SEAMS ARE PROVIDED ACROSS THE TUBE. THE GUIDE MEANS MAY BE A PLATE HAVING A SQUARE OPENING AND A FLEXIBLE SLEEVE OF INELASTIC MATERIAL IS SECURED IN THE SQUARE OPENING. THE TOTAL INTERNAL PERIPHERAL LENGHT OF THE OPENING IS SUBSTANTIALLY EQUAL TO THE CIRCUMFERENCE OF THE TUBE PASSING THROUGH THE OPENING.
