Abstract:
A multi-ply tissue includes a first cellulosic embossed ply having an emboss pattern applied over a portion of its surface and a second cellulosic embossed ply of tissue. The first ply is contact laminated to the second ply so that the primary adhesion between the plies of tissue is the result of contact between cellulosic fibers. The first and second plies contact one another in contact-areas, with the contact areas between the first and second plies defining compliant voids. The contact areas between the first ply and the second ply are elongated and/or rounded contact areas. A method of forming a multi-ply tissue involves conveying a base sheet through a nip between an impression roll and a pattern roll to produce an embossed base sheet having a back side possessing projections, applying adhesive to the back side of the embossed base sheet at spaced apart locations, and applying a flat backing sheet to the back side of the embossed base sheet so that the backing sheet adheres to the back side of the embossed base sheet at said spaced apart locations. A method of producing an embossed tissue involves successively conveying a base sheet through a nip between a first impression roll and a pattern roll, and conveying the base sheet through another nip between the pattern roll and a second impression roll, wherein the second impression roll is made of rubber having a lower hardness than the rubber from which the first impression roll is made.
Abstract:
An embossing system is provided for embossing a web having a first embossing roll having embossing elements and a second embossing roll having embossing elements, wherein at least a portion of the embossing elements of the first and second embossing rolls are substantially oriented in the cross-machine direction. The embossing roll may be crowned, may have alignment means, and may be provided with precision gearing.
Abstract:
The invention relates to a device for embossing and/or glazing films. Said device comprises at least one first and one second embossing roll, through which the flat material can be fed under pressure, in order to create a pattern. At least one additional embossing roll (4) is connected downstream of the second embossing roll (3), said additional embossing roll interacting with the first (2) or preceding (3) embossing roll. The patterned flat material (6) can be fed between these embossing rolls, in order to be embossed again with essentially the same pattern. In a simplified embodiment, only a total of two rolls (2, 4) is used. In order to achieve as precise an embossing as possible, with special effects, the first driven embossing roll (2) is provided with teeth (8), while at least one other embossing roll (3, 4, 20) comprises rings (10) or longitudinal ribs (12), or is smooth.
Abstract:
An embossing device for embossing a single-ply or multi-ply web of tissue paper includes a first steel roll with embossing protuberances on its peripheral surface and a second roll with a yielding layer on its peripheral surface. The second roll cooperates with the steel roll so as to form an embossing nip therewith. The steel roll and the second roll run in synchronization. The second roll has individual zones on its peripheral surface with a higher overall thickness and/or different material characteristics of the yielding layer compared to that of the remaining peripheral surface. These individual zones are opposed in the embossing nip to embossing protuberances of the steel roll.
Abstract:
Paper tissues and paper tissue products such as disposable handkerchiefs, kitchen paper towels, toilet paper and facial tissues exhibiting a soft and smooth surface, and a high bulkiness together with a high strength, in order to provide to the user an enhanced functionality and a high degree of comfort during usage. The present invention also relates to the process of making paper tissue and paper tissue products presenting such characteristics.
Abstract:
An embossing system for embossing and perforating at least a portion of a web is provided comprising a first embossing roll having embossing elements and at least a second embossing roll having embossing elements, wherein the elements of the first and second embossing rolls define perforate nips for embossing and perforating the web and wherein at least a predominate number of the perforate nips are substantially oriented in the cross-machine direction. Moreover, substantially all of the nips defined by the embossing elements of the first and second embossing rolls can be substantially oriented in the cross-machine direction. Further, the cross-machine embossing elements are at an angle of about 85null to 95null from the machine direction.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a sheet (1, 2) of absorbent paper, in particular made of cellulose cotton and of a specific surface weight between 10 and 40 g/m2, comprising a first embossed zone such as is provided by embossing between an undeforming cylinder (A12) fitted with protrusions and a cylinder fitted with a resilient cladding (C) in such manner that the sheet (1, 2) comprises on one side in particular frustoconical salients (120, 110) of which the tops are situated substantially in one plane. The salients (110, 120) corresponding to recesses on the opposite side, the sheet being characterized in that the first embossed zone (110) constitutes a background base pattern of which the number of salients of height H1 relative to the plane is greater than 30 per cm2, and in that it comprises at least a second pattern (G) constituted of salient-free zones of which the height H2 relative to the plane is greater than H1. The invention furthermore concerns the manufacture of such a sheet and to apparatus designed to implement the method.

Abstract:
The invention relates to a sheet of paper which includes at least one decorative pattern (14, 16) which contrasts visually against the sheet's background (12) and which has a first series of generally truncated protrusions (22) projecting from one side (13) of the sheet and aligned in a design. In the invention, the sheet (10) includes a second series of protrusions associated with the first series (22) and of which each protrusion assumes the approximate form of a low wall projecting from a side (13) of the sheet and having a height which is less than the height of the protrusions (22) of the first series and of which each (24) bridges the two adjacent protrusions (22) of the first series to enhance the visual perception of the decorative unit (14, 16).
Abstract:
The invention relates to apparatus clamping at least one paper or non-woven sheet and including two cylinders which run substantially tangent to one another. At least one of the cylinders has on its surface and in a zone that makes contact with the sheet a clamping band having first salient elements. The interaction of the two cylinders in the presence or absence of the sheet subtends an active surface during the rotation of the cylinders. In the invention, at least one of the cylinders has on its surface and in a zone (nip) that makes contact with the other cylinder by means or not of the sheet a load compensating band having second salient elements. This band is selected so that the variation of the consecutive instantaneous active surfaces of the clamping band and of the load compensating band is less than the variation of the consecutive instantaneous active surfaces of the clamping band alone. The invention applies in particular to converting paper or non-woven sheets in the manufacture of absorbent paper items, such as tissues or table napkins.
Abstract:
A process and device for forming a matrix cavity in the counter die of an embossing punch with an embossing device. The counter die is made of a tough, elastic to hard material such as a thermoplastic. The top die having a raised embossing pattern is pressed onto the counter die, which is heated, to form the matrix cavity.
