The present specification relates to an apparatus for manufacturing a blanket, a method for manufacturing a blanket, a blanket manufactured using the same, a reverse offset printing roll provided with the blanket, and a reverse offset printing apparatus including the same.

A method of making a light weight component is provided. The method including the steps of: forming a metallic foam core into a desired configuration; applying an external metallic shell to an exterior surface of the metallic foam core after it has been formed into the desired configuration; forming an inlet opening and an outlet opening in the external metallic shell in order to provide a fluid path through the metallic foam core; and injecting a thermoplastic material into the metallic foam core via the inlet opening.

The present invention is directed to a certain method of catalytically coating a honeycomb monolith, in particular a so-called flow-through monolith. These types of monoliths can be quite precisely be coated by a method using an indirect coating via a displacement body. The present invention further improves this method through controlling the process by monitoring the certain measures.

A system for the in situ production of a liner suitable to shield active surfaces of apparatus for the processing of liquids and/or solids from coming into contact with, and being fouled by, the processed materials, comprises: 1) a spray head, adapted to spray a layer of curable polymeric material onto a surface; 2) circuitry adapted to direct the movement of said spray head according to data pertaining to the surface to be sprayed; and 3) curing apparatus, suitable to cure the layer of material sprayed onto said surface, thereby to produce a shielding liner in situ.

A post-cure inflation machine for processing a tire may include a tire holder shaft. The tire holder shaft may include a chuck to secure the tire to the tire holder shaft. A hollow passage may be defined in the tire holder shaft. A spray nozzle may be connected to a spray shaft that is telescopically disposed in the hollow passage of the tire holder shaft. The spray nozzle may extend to spray an air barrier material onto the tire.

A coating method includes a first step for spraying, onto an inner area of an opening part of a cylindrical body having a bottom and arranged horizontally, a first coating material of synthetic resin containing non-volatile components while rotating the cylindrical body around a central axis thereof. After the first step, a second step is performed for spraying, onto an inner area of a barrel part of the cylindrical body, a second coating material of synthetic resin containing a lower proportion of non-volatile components than that of the first coating material while continuing to rotate the cylindrical body. After the second step is performed and before the volatile components of the second coating material vaporizes, a third step is performed in which the rotation of the cylindrical body is stopped, the cylindrical body is placed vertically, and the volatile components of the second coating material are vaporized.

A substrate coating apparatus is disclosed. A substrate coating apparatus comprises: a source of a washcoat; a washcoat showerhead for discharging the washcoat towards an upper surface of a substrate; a conduit fluidly connecting the source of the washcoat to the washcoat showerhead for supplying washcoat to the washcoat showerhead; a headset for engaging the substrate to locate the upper surface of the substrate below the washcoat showerhead; and a vacuum generator for drawing the washcoat discharged from the washcoat showerhead through the substrate. The headset comprises a headset seal for engaging against the substrate. The headset seal comprises a perimetral portion that extends around the headset and a cantilevered portion that extends down from the perimetral portion and which is configured to engage against a sidewall of the substrate.

Overvarnished aluminum cans which are not usable because of label graphic errors or other reasons are conditioned for reuse by first treating the existing overvarnish to accept an opaque new layer of overvarnish. The opening of the can is engaged with a plug having a pin communicating with a pressurized gas supporting the can on a wheel to supply gas pressure according to the rotational position of the pin. The overvarnished can is pressurized to allow printing an opaque new layer of overvarnish on to the can over the existing overvarnish. The treated can is visually inspected and the internal coating resprayed, and the opaque overvarnish and the internal coating are cured in a final curing oven, the can being then ready for printing of new graphics or sold as a brite, silver or blank can where other graphics can be applied.

A method of coating a high-pressure fluid vessel comprises filling a high-pressure fluid vessel with a coating solution, draining the coating solution, and drying a remainder of the coating solution in the high-pressure fluid vessel. The coating solution may include a thermoplastic elastomer that is hard with a low glass transition temperature and a high melting temperature. Drying the remainder of the coating solution may form a food grade coating within the high-pressure fluid vessel.

A method for coating a monolithic porous catalyst support having a plurality of channels formed in a longitudinal direction with a catalyst slurry, and a device therefor are proposed. A pressure dispersion coating device for a porous catalyst support includes: a slurry quantitative input means; a container being variable in volume, having an open upper part thereof into which a slurry is input by the slurry quantitative input means, and having a bottom thereof movable; a container moving means fastened to one side of the container; a moving means fastened to a lower part of the container and having a shaft connected to the bottom of the container; an overflow outlet being formed on a side part of the container and provided with a valve; and a pressurizing means disposed on the open upper part of the container.
