Laying head and apparatus and method for manufacturing a three-dimensional pre-form for a structural component from a fiber composite material
09782926 · 2017-10-10 · ·

A laying head for manufacturing a three-dimensional preform includes an inlet configured to feed in a plurality of dry rovings. A fiber conveying device simultaneously and mutually-independently conveys, in a fiber supplying direction, the rovings fed-in via the inlet. An outlet is arranged downstream of the fiber conveying device in the fiber supplying direction and simultaneously lays the plurality of rovings on a workpiece carrier to manufacture the three-dimensional preform. A fiber-cutting device is disposed downstream of the fiber conveying device and upstream of the outlet in the fiber supplying direction and cuts the rovings. A nozzle applies a medium onto the rovings. A slit-shaped through gap of the nozzle has a height is equal to the height of the dry rovings in the thickness direction plus a margin that is sufficiently small so as to cause the medium to be forcibly embedded into the dry rovings.

Housing, electronic device using same, and method for making same

A housing includes a metal substrate, an adhesive layer formed on the metal substrate, and a resin film formed on the adhesive layer, the metal substrate, the adhesive layer and the resin film cooperatively form a cavity through a stamping process, an internal structure needed by the housing is formed in the cavity through an injection process, and the internal structure is formed on the resin film.

Interface Tubing for Peristaltic Pump

A pump interface tubing for use in a peristaltic pump includes a tubular core having an outer surface and a treatment on the outer surface. The treatment reduces static charge buildup on the tubular core during operation of the peristaltic pump, and thereby reduces the noise signal that might otherwise undesirably couple to a signal of interest. Treatments include nitrile layers, heat shrink layers, cotton fiber layers, and anti-static sprays.

Dry apply protective systems and methods

A system for protecting a surface of a substrate includes a protective film, which is configured to be applied and secured to the surface, as well as a backing on an adherent surface of the protective film and an application tape over an exterior surface of the protective film. Protruding features, such as tabs, adjacent to different peripheral edges of the protective film may enable removal of the backing and the application tape from the protective film, and may include features that indicate the order in which each protruding feature is to be grasped to peel its corresponding element away from the protective film.

09744746 · 2017-08-29 · ·

The invention relates to an edge material for panels, the edge material being constructed from a plurality of bonded layers. The edge material comprises a first layer, which is non-metallic, and a core layer, which is made of at least one metal layer. The edge material also comprises a second layer, which is non-metallic. Furthermore, the invention relates to a corresponding sandwich panel and to a corresponding cover layer for panels.

Apparatus and method for sticking cloth

The present disclosure relates to the field of apparatuses for manufacturing a display. It discloses an apparatus for sticking cloth, including: a rack; a workbench arranged on the rack; a roller frame arranged above the workbench and provided with a pair of clamps which are configured to clamp a rubbing roller onto which a cloth will be stuck; a horizontal moving mechanism mounted on the rack and configured to drive the roller frame to move horizontally; and a heating pad mounted on the workbench and configured to heat a rubbing cloth and a double sided adhesive tape. By means of heating the rubbing cloth and the double sided adhesive tape by the heating pad, the air bubbles on the surface of the rubbing roller may be reduced to optimize the rubbing alignment process. The present disclosure also provides a method for sticking cloth.

MICROFLOW RESTRICTOR ASSEMBLY AND METHODS OF MAKING THE SAME
20170241583 · 2017-08-24 ·

A medical fluid microflow assembly having an assembly fluid inlet and an assembly fluid outlet, and a mandrel having a curved exterior surface, the mandrel being positioned within an cavity of a housing so that the exterior surface of the mandrel is substantially parallel to an interior surface of the cavity, and at least one protrusion positioned helically around and extending from the interior surface of the cavity, each protrusion abutting the exterior surface of the mandrel to form a sealed fluid channel which has a channel inlet positioned proximate to the assembly fluid inlet and a channel outlet positioned proximate to the assembly fluid outlet, the exterior surface of the mandrel and the interior surface of the cavity having a minimal or neutral triboelectric value with respect to a fluid.

Cartridge and tubular container trimming and refinishing apparatus for ink and label removal
09738003 · 2017-08-22 ·

A device for removing a thin outer layer from the surface of a cartridge or tubular container such as a caulk cartridge for removal of ink, contaminant, adhesive, or printed or stamped label from the outside of the cartridge. The apparatus includes cartridge hopper and a cartridge handling mandrel or plunger which automatically removes a cartridge from the hopper aligning same for insertion of the cartridge axially through the throat of a spinning ring which contains at least one and preferably a plurality of inwardly extending knifes. The spinning knife distal end trims or peels off the label, adhesive, ink, imperfections, or even a thin film from an outer layer of a selected thickness effectively reconditioning the cartridge for reuse to be filled with virgin material or to be used as uncontaminated re-ground material to be sold as scrap.
