A method for making the composite material wheel rim includes the steps of: configuring a plurality of inner lining chunks individually to the desired position where the spokes are to be mounted to allow the inner lining chunks to be integrated with an inner annular portion of the wheel rim, next, integrating the formed inner annular portion with an outer annular portion of the wheel rim to form a semi-finished wheel rim, and then, creating the requested threaded holes for connecting the spokes in the inner lining chunks of the inner surface of the semi-finished wheel rim subject to the requested amount and angles of the spokes. By the present method, the semi-finished wheel rim allows drilled, threaded holes subject to needs to fit different types of wheel hub units to increase the yield rate and reduce the inventory of the wheel rims.

A peel and stick skid resistant polyurethane surface with abrasives is provided with a method of manufacture.

The present invention relates to a method for producing laminate floorboards having edges following the natural curvature of veneer planks cut from timber planks with natural curvature. With the method laminate floorboards are obtained, each floorboard comprising a veneer plank glued onto a substrate, the contour of the substrate and the veneer corresponding with each other.

Laser conversion of multilayer optical film bodies comprising polyester and polycarbonate materials.

Disclosed herein is a method of manufacturing a natural cork film, which includes forming a thin cork layer by slicing a prepared natural cork material, forming a fiber layer by attaching a fiber sheet to one surface of the cork layer formed in the forming a thin cork layer, pre-treating a lamination of the cork layer and the fiber layer formed in the forming a fiber layer, for preventing discoloration of the cork layer, and forming a resin layer by attaching a resin sheet to the fiber layer passing through the pre-treating a lamination of the cork layer and the fiber layer. Accordingly, it is possible to prevent the manufactured cork film from naturally discoloring due to light and to significantly reduce a phenomenon such as brittleness or wrinkling caused when the cork layer is decolorized alone.

A method and a device for attaching a backing film to a flexible substrate and a roller for use therewith. The method includes placing the flexible substrate on a surface of a first worktable facing a second worktable and placing the backing film on a surface of the second worktable facing the first worktable; pressing the flexible substrate and the backing film by a rolling mechanism to attach them together. The rolling mechanism includes a roller having a surface encapsulated with segmented roller encapsulating rubber.

An insulated HVAC duct component such as a transition box includes a first insulation layer and a second, different insulation layer. The transition box includes at least four sidewalls and one of a top and a back wall, the transition box further including a first access port and a second access port, the first access port having a different cross section than the second access port, one of the access ports being spaced from a nearest sidewall by less than 2 inches. The first insulation layer is located along an inside surface of the box. The second different insulation layer overlies the first insulation layer, the second different insulation layer having an air impervious surface, wherein the combined thickness of the first insulation layer and the second different insulation layer is less than 2 inches.

The invention relates to a diaper closing strip (1), comprising a substrate (2) and a plurality of mechanical closing elements (3) arranged thereon, which mechanical closing elements have a front-side engaging surface and a rear-side fastening surface, wherein an adhesive element (6) is arranged between the substrate (1) and the rear-side fastening surface of each mechanical closing element (3), which adhesive element does not completely cover the rear-side fastening surface of the mechanical closing element (3).

An adhesive bolt for forming a fastening point to a workpiece has a head and a shank connected to the head. The shank is set up to be introduced into a cutout on the workpiece. An adhesive is situated in the region of the shank and the workpiece. The shank is configured to enter into a non-positive preliminary connection with a bounding face of the cutout until the adhesive has hardened.

A direct dry film (DDF) lamination method includes providing a chamber including a bladder, positioning a frame in the chamber, positioning a compound curve substrate in an interior space within the frame, and suspending, by the frame, an optically clear adhesive (OCA) sheet over the compound curve substrate. In embodiments, a top liner of the OCA sheet is scored or cut to introduce weakness imparting flexibility in the sheet corresponding to the curvature of the compound curve substrate. The method continues with evacuating the chamber, deploying the bladder, retracting the bladder, and venting the chamber. Additional steps prepare the product for further boding with a flexible film or rigid part having a matched curvature profile.
