Abstract
Abstract Method and apparatus for the manufacture of one-dimensional or multi-dimensional curved or angularly formed, preferably moldings of mineral wool, which is impregnated with a binder, in that a matching or chosen piece of binder impregnated mineral wool felt (9) or mineral wool is compressed between mold parts comprising a matrix (4) and a counter die (1), whereafter the matrix (4) and/or the counter die (1) cures the binder of the mineral wool body formed by the matrix and the counter die, whereby the mineral wool felt (9) is compressed in two or several steps, namely in at least a first step between the counter die (1) and a portion (5) of the matrix (4), whereafter the remaining part (6) of the matrix (4) in one or several successive steps is fold or pressed to the mineral wool felt (9), so that all remaining parts thereof are pressed to the counter die (1), whereby all parts of the mineral wool felt (9) is given a predetermined thickness.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 6
Claim 1
Independent Claim
121 words
In a method for the manufacture of non-planar arcuately shaped binder impregnated mineral wool felt mat (9; 19) compressing the mat between mold parts comprising a matrix (4; 16) and a counter die (1; 12), the improvement comprising: enabling an even distribution of material sufficient to provide a predetermined thickness in the felt, by compressing the felt in a plurality of stages including, compressing the mineral wool felt (9: 19) between the counter die (1; 12) and a central portion (4; 17) of the matrix (4; 16), whereafter folding the side portions (6; 18) of the matrix (4; 16) in at least one successive step, into contact with the mineral wool felt mat (9; 19) sufficient to provide said predetermined thickness.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
121 words
In a method for the manufacture of non-planar arcuately shaped binder impregnated mineral wool felt mat (9; 19) compressing the mat between mold parts comprising a matrix (4; 16) and a counter die (1; 12), the improvement comprising: enabling an even distribution of material sufficient to provide a predetermined thickness in the felt, by compressing the felt in a plurality of stages including, compressing the mineral wool felt (9: 19) between the counter die (1; 12) and a central portion (4; 17) of the matrix (4; 16), whereafter folding the side portions (6; 18) of the matrix (4; 16) in at least one successive step, into contact with the mineral wool felt mat (9; 19) sufficient to provide said predetermined thickness.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
108 words
Method according to claim 1, characterized in that the mineral wool felt is placed into contact with the counter die, whereupon a part of the matrix is put into contact with the mineral wool felt, so that said felt is presed to a predetermined thickness between the matrix and the counter die at least along a generatrix of the molding to be made whereafter the remaining part (6; 18) of the matrix (4; 16) in one or more successive step is fold into contact with the mineral wool felt (9; 19) thereby pressing also the remaining part of the mineral wool felt through the counter die (1; 12).
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
46 words
Method according to any of claims 2, characterized in that the application of the mineral wool felt (9; 19) to the counter die (1; 12) is made from above, and so is the application of the matrix (4; 16) to the mineral wool felt (9; 19).
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
32 words
Method according to claim 1, characterized in that the matrix as a complete is in contact with the mineral wool felt before the counter die as a complete comes into contact therewith.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim
43 words
Method according to claim 4, characterized in that portions (14) of the counter die (12) are fold or displaced outwards into contact with the mineral wool felt (19) at the same time as or after the folding in of the matrix portions (18).
