STRUCTURE FORMING METHOD, APPARATUS AND THE PRODUCT

摘要

A method of forming a continu- ous structure includes the steps of flow- ing a first liquid reactive resin material (75) over a base surface (74), form- ing a first thin layer (76) thereof and gelling the first layer (76). A second liquid resin material is flowed through an orifice (49) under pressure forming a liquid stream (77) thereof. The liquid stream (77) is gelled to form a contin- uous filament (78) with structural in- tegrity as it advances toward the first gelled layer (76). The filament (78) is contacted with the first layer (76) and distributed thereover in a prese- lected pattern (79) forming a porous non-woven filament blanket (81). A particulate solid material (82) is dis- tributed uniformly over the filament blanket (81). A third liquid resin ma- terial (83) is flowed over the blanket forming a second thin uniform layer (85) of the third liquid resin forming material (83) and gelled.
