It is structured in the form of a bearing sheet made up of a series of profiled plates (1), which run from the ground to the roof, grooved, to form trays with a U-shaped section, which are attached by their central branch to the front edge of the floor slabs and whose side branches (2) serve as supports and spacers for an exterior sheet (7), which forms the exposed face of the front wall, using modular pieces (9) that are mounted on strips (10) suitably attached to the front edge (3) of the trays (1), or panels that are directly secured to those edges if there are no strips. The respective layers (6) of insulation and soundproofing material lie at the bottom of the trays (1), which are still at a considerable distance from the exterior sheet (7), forming a ventilated chamber that also runs from the floor to the roof, while the internal face of the bearing sheet (5) adapts to the insertion of another insulating and soundproofing layer (13), an inner sheet (12), which takes the form of a self-supporting back made up of panels composed of plaster sheets on a galvanised steel structure.

It comprises a flattened base (3) for the rest and support of the user, and an articulated covering body (4) with opening and closing means that, with the flattened base (3), define a housing for the positioning of the user in its interior during the treatment, a footing (1) on the ground and a support frame (2) that is characterized in that in the inner part of the body of the apparatus includes a hitting device constituted by a plurality of liquid sprinkler mechanisms (11), placed in at least two horizontal and parallel flatbars (9, 10) or with a certain degree parallelism, equipped with alternative movements in opposite directions one in respect to the other and driven by means of devices (24 to 27) with speed regulation and moving stroke regulation.

Finisher comprises a chassis (1), an inlet board (5) hinged via arms (6), a base board (7) and an outlet board (8). The angle of the inlet board can be adjusted via an adjusting cylinder (12). Hydraulic supporting cylinders (21) are arranged between the rear region of the chassis and the outlet board and/or board parts (9) of each side. The cylinders are impinged with an adjustable hydraulic pressure in the direction of the ground when the finisher is started up. Preferred Features: The supporting cylinders are hinged on the chassis on the piston side and on each outlet board and/or the board parts on the piston rod side. The chassis has hooks (20) for a trailer.

The invention relates to a method for coating a substrate with a layer of a material, such as a metal, in which a quantity of electrically conductive material is vaporized in a space with a low background pressure and energy is supplied to the material which is to be vaporized in order to vaporize this material. According to the invention, the material which is to be vaporized, while it is being vaporized, is kept floating, without support, in the space and is enclosed in an alternating electromagnetic field, the alternating electromagnetic field being generated with the aid of a high-frequency alternating current. The invention also relates to a device for coating a substrate and to a substrate.

A method is provided for forming an active material containing coating on a substrate. The substrate is suitably a wipe, cloth or sponge for household use, or a water-soluble household cleaning unit dose product. The method comprises the steps of: i) introducing one or more gaseous or atomised liquid and/or solid coating-forming materials which undergo chemical bond forming reactions within a plasma environment and one or more active materials which substantially do not undergo chemical bond forming reactions within a plasma environment, into an atmospheric or low pressure plasma discharge and/or an excited gas stream resulting therefrom, and ii) exposing the substrate to the resulting mixture of atomised coating-forming and at least one active material which are deposited onto the substrate surface to form a coating.

Device for the piece-wise or batch-wise refining of pieces of a substrate, in particular a textile substrate, under high pressure with a treatment medium, comprising: a substantially cylindrical pressure vessel ( 1 ), which is provided with a closable feed aperture ( 4 ) for placing the pieces of substrate in the pressure vessel ( 1 ); a pipe system ( 7 ) for feeding a treatment medium to and discharging it from the pressure vessel ( 1 ) under high pressure during treatment. The cylindrical pressure vessel is provided on at least one of the two end faces with an aperture that is closable by a lid ( 2, 3 ), which aperture forms the feed aperture ( 4 ). The device comprises retaining means for keeping the lid ( 2, 3 ) in place in a sealing manner during treatment, and the retaining means comprise a bounding frame ( 10 ) that is circumferentially closed, with two interconnected end pieces ( 11, 12 ) situated at a distance from each other, which end pieces in a closed position can be slid over the pressure vessel ( 1 ) and thereby retain the end faces of the pressure vessel ( 1 ) in the axial direction.

There is disclosed a composition for forming a protective coating upon a substrate. The composition has been found particularly useful for forming a protective coating upon components of automotive vehicles, such as a bedliner for a pick-up truck. The composition may include, without limitation, an isocyanate component and an amine component and optionally includes one or more of a catalyst, stabilizer, pigment, fire retardant or other additives.
