<p>An apparatus for moulding three-dimensionally shaped moulded articles from binder-containing web-like nonwoven fabrics for transferring by pressure and heat action the shaping forces of at least one mould half acting on at least one elastically deformable supporting layer to the weblike non-woven fabrics, said supporting layer being fixed to a component or held in movable manner with respect to the mould making it possible to match the deformation behaviour of tile stabilizing supporting layer in an optimum manner to the deformation behaviour of the non-woven fabrics without there being any risk of over-elongation of the supporting layer enabling the latter to be used repeatedly. For this purpose the supporting layer is fixed wholly or partly to the component by means of the additional resilient elastic stretching elements, said stretching elements, e.g. springs, rubber strips or plastic cords, having regulatable resilience characteristics, e.g. by pneumatic or hydraulic cylinders.</p> |
