A method for producing sealing tape rolls of flexible, compressible foam having at least one external, radially oriented barrier layer comprises the steps of providing a foam web of flexible foam; forming a foam-barrier layer web by application of a barrier layer to a top surface and/or a bottom surface of the foam web; producing a plurality of sealing tape strips by introducing at least one continuous cut into the foam-barrier layer web in a longitudinal direction of the foam-barrier layer web and perpendicularly to the at least one barrier layer; and winding up each sealing tape strip of the plurality of sealing tape strips into a roll in such a way that the at least one barrier layer extends in the radial direction and is arranged on at least one of the two axial end surfaces of the roll.

Object: To provide a film cutting jig and a method of mounting a film that can easily mount a film that not only covers a roof of an object but also wraps around to the sidewalls of the object. Resolution means: The present invention provides a film cutting jig used when cutting a film to cover at least a roof of an object that includes a sidewall and the roof, the film cutting jig including: a main jig body that is to be attached to the object to continuously surround a covered region that includes the roof and at least a portion of a top edge side of the sidewall when the object is viewed from above, wherein a guide for guiding a cutting tool to cut the film is formed in the main jig body, and wherein the guide is formed to continuously surround the covered region when the object is viewed from above.

Systems and methods facilitate the automated manufacture of fabric articles. In an example operation, a single web of fabric is unwound and transported to a sequence of stations. At one station, the unwound fabric is cut to create first and second components of the fabric article and a web of remainder fabric. Then the web of remainder fabric is removed from the first and second components of the fabric article. At another station, adhesive is applied to the second component. Then a robot positions the first component onto the second component. At another station, the adhesive is cured. At another station, a design in printed onto the first component.

A resin film configured to hold a conductive metallic track against a panel. The resin film partially covers the conductive metallic track, such that the conductive metallic track has at least one region which does not have the resin film, so as to allow an electrical connection by contact. Thus, in the context of assembly on a panel, the metallic track incorporated between the panel and the resin film is protected, thus rendering this technical solution particularly robust. Furthermore, the resin film electrically insulates the metallic track from surrounding elements, and the regions which do not have resin film allow an electrical connection by contact.

A method of making the asphalt shingles includes applying a substrate to a layer of shingle-forming material, the substrate having indicators at predetermined spaced-apart distances, with the indicators being sensed as the shingle-forming layer is moved along a predetermined path, with adhesive zones being applied to the shingle such that the application of the adhesive zones is synchronized in response to sensing the locations of the indicators, and with the shingle-forming layer then being cut into individual shingles.

The presently disclosed subject matter generally relates to recyclable insulation material for shipping containers, groceries bags, etc., machines for making the recyclable insulation material, and methods for the making the recyclable insulation material. In one aspect, a method of forming an insulation product may include forming a continuous sheet of paper into a plurality of flexible loops defining a plurality of air channels extending in a direction that is substantially perpendicular with a machine direction of the continuous sheet of paper. The method may also include immediately attaching a first layer of paper and a second layer of paper to the plurality of flexible loops as they are formed so that the continuous sheet of paper retains the plurality of flexible loops between the first layer and the second layer and that the plurality of flexible loops remain unattached with respect to one another.

A drug delivery device comprising: a first layer comprising a first coaxially electrospun nanofiber membrane; a second layer comprising a second coaxially electrospun nanofiber membrane; a first therapeutic agent integrated into the first coaxially electrospun nanofiber membrane; and a second therapeutic agent integrated into the second coaxially electrospun nanofiber membrane. The second therapeutic agent is different from the first therapeutic agent.

An object of the present invention is to provide a shoe including an upper that is easily conformed to a shape of a last when it is shaped. The shoe includes an upper made of a fiber sheet that includes: a first layer made of knitted fabric or woven fabric that includes yarns having a heat shrinkability and has inner gaps; and a second layer layered on the first layer and made of nonwoven fabric, knitted fabric or woven fabric, and being integrated with the first layer by needle punching.

Electronic equipment may include structured fabric. Structured fabric may be used as a protective case or cosmetic cover for an electronic device, may be used to form a band that holds an electronic device against a user's body, or may be used to cover one or more openings in an electronic device. Structured fabrics may be soft and pliable while maintaining the ability to hold a given shape without added support. Structured fabric may be formed by laminating fabric such as warp-knit fabric with a stiffener such as polymer film. Structured fabrics may include openings through which signals such as optical or audio signals pass. To maintain the geometry and shape of the openings in the structured fabric without covering the openings, the stiffener and adhesive that are attached to the fabric may be cut to form a pattern of openings that align with the openings in the fabric.

A protective packaging product comprises a plurality of stacked layers, at least some layers preferably comprising a foamed material, and at least some layers being adhered to an adjacent layer. The inventions proposes that at least some layers are made of a polysaccharide material, and that adjacent polysaccharide layers are adhered to each other by means of a polysaccharide bonding material.
