INSIDE CORNER DRYWALL FINISHING
20210246671 · 2021-08-12 ·

An inside corner drywall finishing comprising a first segment composed of a first side and a second side, a second segment composed of a first side and a second side, a third segment composed of a first side and a second side, a flap composed of a first side and a second side, the first side of the first segment attached to the first side of the flap wherein the first segment is affixed to the flap, the second side of the first segment attached to the first side of the second segment wherein the first segment is affixed to the second segment and the second side of the second segment attached to the first side of the third segment wherein the second segment is affixed to the third segment.

MESH SEAM CONNECTION ELEMENT
20210164242 · 2021-06-03 ·

Aa mesh tape bonded to the outer edge or outward side of sheet panel products. The mesh tape is applied so that the tape overhangs the edge of the panel for the purpose of adjoining to the adjacent panel following installation of the panels at a job site. The mesh may be applied to two edges of the sheet panel, one along the panel width and another along the panel length. When installed, the panel edge with the mesh tape applied is overlapped with the edge of an adjacent panel that does not have tape applied, both along the length and width, thus allowing for a faster, more robust and reliable installation of panel sheathing.

20210148123 · 2021-05-20 ·

The present invention relates to a system for finishing an interior or exterior drywall surface of a building structure. More specifically, a means of applying a predetermined formulation of dispensable compound material in liquefied form at continuous flow with simultaneous finishing characteristics thereby reducing labor intensity and maximizing finish quality to a level 5 standard.

Drywall banjo tools for applying joint tape

Method and apparatus are disclosed for drywall banjo tools for applying joint tape. An example drywall banjo for applying joint tape includes a banjo body. The banjo body includes a panel and side walls protruding from outer edges of the panel to define a cavity that is configured to contain joint compound mud. The side walls include a first side wall that extends between an inlet and an outlet. The example disclosed drywall banjo also includes a sloped mound configured to couple to and project away from the first side wall within the cavity. The sloped mound is configured to guide the joint compound mud within the cavity toward the joint tape travelling between the inlet and the outlet to enable the joint compound mud to uniformly collect on a side of the joint tape.

PRESSURE SENSITIVE ADHESIVE JOINT SUPPORT
20210140179 · 2021-05-13 ·

The present disclosure relates a joint support that includes a support strip having first and second elongate flanges, the first and second elongate flanges having an inside surface, an outside surface, an inner edge, and an outer edge. The joint support further includes a first auxiliary flap including an inner portion attached to the inside surface of the first elongate flange and an outer portion that extends laterally beyond the outer edge of the first elongate flange. The joint support further includes a second auxiliary flap including an inner portion attached to the inside surface of the second elongate flange and an outer portion that extends laterally beyond the outer edge of the second elongate flange. The joint support further includes a pressure sensitive adhesive substance disposed on at least a first portion of an inside surface of each of the first auxiliary flap and the second auxiliary flap.

TAPE MACHINE

A mesh tape bonded to the outer edge or outward side of sheet panel products. The mesh tape is applied so that the tape overhangs the edge of the panel for the purpose of adjoining to the adjacent panel following installation of the panels at a job site. The mesh may be applied to two edges of the sheet panel, one along the panel width and another along the panel length. When installed, the panel edge with the mesh tape applied is overlapped with the edge of an adjacent panel that does not have tape applied, both along the length and width, thus allowing for a faster, more robust and reliable installation of panel sheathing.

JOINT SUPPORT INCLUDING ENCAPSULATED ADHESIVE

The present disclosure relates generally to building surface joint supports, for example, suitable for covering a seam between two building surface panels, such as drywall. The present disclosure relates more particularly to a joint support including an encapsulated adhesive for securing the joint support to the building surface panels. The joint support includes a support strip having a width, a length, a first end, a second end, a contact surface, and an outer surface. An adhesive is disposed on the contact surface of the support strip. The adhesive includes a first set of capsules and each capsule of the first set of capsules includes a membrane enclosing a first component of an adhesive composition.

Joint Compound Application Assembly
20210071431 · 2021-03-11 ·

A joint compound application assembly for applying joint compound on drywall includes a rod that has a conduit integrated therein. The conduit is fluidly coupled to a source of joint compound thereby facilitating the joint compound to be urged through the conduit. A box is coupled to the rod and the box has a bottom end that is open into an interior of the box. A spray bar is fluidly coupled to the conduit and the spray bar is directed toward the bottom end of the box to spray the joint compound onto a wall or ceiling. A knife is coupled to the box to smooth the joint compound on the wall or ceiling.
