Abstract

The invention relates to a hollow board material comprising a first sheet and a second sheet. A first and a second lath are arranged in parallel between the first sheet and the second sheet along opposite edges of the hollow board material. The first lath and the first sheet are attached to each other by means of a first metal gripping lamina which at least partly covers the first lath. The second lath and the first sheet are attached to each other by means of a second metal gripping lamina which at least partly covers the first lath. Optionally, the first lath and the second sheet are attached to each other by means of a third metal gripping lamina and optionally the second lath and the second sheet are attached to each other by means of a fourth metal gripping lamina. The metal gripping laminas have a first face and a second face which are opposed to each other. Each face comprises a plurality of sharp projections extending substantially perpendicular therefrom and into the laths or the sheets respectively. The metal gripping laminas thereby provides a hollow board material and increases the bending strength of the hollow board material. The invention further relates to a furniture comprising said hollow board material and method for producing said hollow board material.

Abstract

A method for joining two objects by anchoring an insert portion provided on a first object in an opening provided on a second object. The anchorage is achieved by liquefaction of a thermoplastic material and interpenetration of the liquefied material and a penetrable material, the two materials being arranged on opposite surfaces of the insert portion and the wall of the opening. During the step of inserting the insert portion in the opening and/or during anchorage a clamping force is applied to opposing surfaces of the second object to prevent the second object from cracking or bulging.

Abstract

A method and an arrangement for detecting and counting articles are disclosed, performing the steps of: providing a detecting station arranged along a passageway for the articles, the detecting station being adapted to establish at least a scanning radiation beam at a cross section of the passageway; passing articles past the detecting station, the detecting station detecting an article upon sensing at least a partial interruption of the scanning radiation beam; and obtaining a count of the detected articles through the passageway, wherein the detecting station include first and second detecting assembly arranged at a predetermined distance from each other along the direction of travel of the articles, which first and second detecting assembly establish a respective scanning radiation beam on a first, respectively second scanning plane at a corresponding cross section of the passageway, and wherein at least a first predetermined reference section of the articles is detected at each scanning plane; a travelling speed of each article is calculated based on the time used by the at least one reference section of the article to travel the predetermined distance between the first and the second scanning planes; at least a second predetermined reference section of the articles, which is separate from the first reference section, is detected at least at one of the first and second scanning plane; and a count of the articles is obtained by calculating a length thereof from the calculated travelling speed and by calculating the time used by the article to cross at least one of said first and second scanning plane.
