810,404. Moulding seamless flexible containers. LEMFORDER METALLWARENGESELLSCHAFT. March 6, 1957 [March 22, 1956], No. 7496/57. Class 87(2). A seamless flexible container having embedded in one wall a member 9 through which extends a conduit, is made with apparatus comprising a thin-walled hollow core B to which the above member 9 is secured, access to the interior of the core being through the conduit only, and an outer shell A having an aperture. The arrangement is such that the member 9 can be secured in the aperture so as to seal it. The core B is located in, and spaced from the walls of, the shell A. Plastic material, e.g. polyurethane resin, is poured into the space between the core and the inner surface of the shell imtil the core is completely covered, the apparatus is heated, e.g. to 100-120‹C., to harden the plastic, the shell removed from the cast container, and the core inside the container demolished, e.g. by collapsing it from outside or by expanding it. The mould may be heated to 160‹C. before the plastic is poured in. The core B is made of thin metal foil, e.g. brass foil, of such a thickness that it will collapse when subjected to a pressure of more than 1 atmosphere. The shell A consists of two parts, an open-ended tubular-shaped upper portion 1 and a cup-shaped bottom 2. The joint between the two portions coincides with the axes of symmetry of the member 9 and a protuberance C on the shell A. The protuberance C consists of halves 4 and 5 which are welded to the upper and lower portions 1, 2 respectively. The inside surfaces of the shell and protuberance and the outside surface of the core B are greased in order to prevent the plastic from adhering to these parts. The outside of the member 9, which has previously been soldered to the core, is sandblasted on those parts which will be encased in plastic and is then treated with an isocyanate adhesive. Spacers may be inserted into the upper part of the mould but are removed before the plastic reaches their level. Preferably the plastic used has a polyurethane base produced from a linear aliphatic hydroxyl polyester and an excess of diisocyanate. The resulting product is mixed. with activators, e.g. 0-01 to 0-001 per cent. of alkaline salts and/or aryl alkyl sulphonates and with a mixture of divalent and polyvalent alcohol. The plastic is allowed to cross-link in the apparatus during casting.
