Automatic machine (1) for coating panels with leather or fabrics comprising: —a base (2), provided with a fixed perimeter surround (3), containing a vertically movable supporting surface (4) for a coating material (M) and for a panel (P) to be coated; —two pairs of movable clasps (5, 6), arranged on opposing sides of the perimeter surround (3), parallel to the sides of the surface (4), adapted to determine the preliminary pulling of the coating material (M) in a transversal and longitudinal direction and then its surmounting and folding onto an upper face of the panel (P) to be coated; —means of reversibly lowering the surface (4); —a frame (7), in one piece with the base (2) and above it, carrying a hydraulic piston (8), arranged perpendicular to the surface (4), adapted to block the panel (P) to be coated on the coating material (M) subjected to pulling; —an electronic command and control unit for the moving parts.

The invention relates to an industrial machine for vertically applying temporary or permanent protective films on plane surfaces and having an automatic system for cutting the film, positioning it edge-to-edge or with a margin (in particular in the context of film-coating sheets of glass for the purposes of glazing any window frames without damaging the temporary protection; the glass being film-coated while leaving a setback) by acting simultaneously on both faces and adapting automatically to changes in the format of the parts for treatment, using an electrostatic method for holding the film in position on the applicator roller.

A screen protector laminate applicator is used with an installation machine to install a screen protector on a mobile device. The laminate applicator comprises a web secured to the installation machine; the screen protector carried by the web, and a backing layer covering the screen protector opposite the web. The web, the screen protector and the backing layer are removably coupled together as a laminate. A tab of the backing layer extends beyond the perimeter of the screen protector and comprises an enlarged head connected to the backing layer by a narrower neck.

A tape applicator assembly for securing tape to a surface includes a body and may include a centering and locking assembly configured to automatically center and lock a tape assembly within the body for dispensing. The tape applicator assembly may further be configured for securing tape to at least one cable and a surface, wherein the body includes a tape-receiving cavity defined for receiving a tape assembly having tape with a tape center longitudinal axis. A tape applying assembly may be defined within the body that is configured to adhere the tape to both the at least one cable and the surface. A cable alignment assembly may also be defined within the body that is configured to receive at least one cable positioned against the surface and substantially align the at least one cable with the tape center longitudinal axis.

A system (10) for reinforcing a pipeline (90) or pressure vessel includes a dispenser (12), a quantity of fabric (14), and a resin (16). The dispenser (12) has a first end (39), a second end (32), and a slot (46) formed in a wall (48), and is pressurizable via a fluid input (74) to a pressurized state. The dispenser (12) has a seal (56) configured to permit the quantity of fabric (14) to pass through the slot (46) and retain pressure within the dispenser (12). The dispenser (12) is configured to dispense the quantity of fabric (14) through the slot (46). The quantity of fabric (14) has a first width (24).

A method of applying a film to upper and lower appliques of a rear slider window assembly includes providing a support structure and positioning a rear slider window assembly at the support structure, with the rear slider window assembly including spaced apart fixed window panels, upper and lower appliques extending between the spaced apart fixed window panels, and a frame portion attached at the fixed window panels and appliques. An applicator includes first and second applicating devices for dispensing a strip of film onto a respective applique. The applicator is moved to a starting position where a roller of each applicating device presses an end region of the film onto the respective applique, and then is moved along the appliques with the rollers rolling along the respective appliques to press the film onto the appliques. The film strips are cut and pressed onto the respective appliques.

An apparatus configured to apply protective sheeting of polymer material around a cutback on a pipeline has a frame located close to a pipeline extending along a longitudinal axis; a manipulator fitted to the frame and having a guide system movable between a rest position at a distance from the pipeline, and a work position in which the guide system is fitted around the pipeline; and an extrusion die movable selectively along the guide system and around the pipeline to supply and apply protective sheeting around the cutback on the pipeline.

A film-applying device and method for 3D glass with two opposite curved edges. The film-applying device comprises: an upper base for fixing a film; a lower base for fixing the 3D glass; a roller structure for rotating a rotary cylinder of the upper base; and a lifting cylinder for moving the upper base, the rotary cylinder, and the roller structure up and down and making the roller structure apply a pressure to press-fit the 3D glass and the film. The roller structure comprises a lower roller and an upper press roller; the rotary cylinder is used for rotating the upper base to change or fix the relative position of the upper base and the roller structure. The device has a simplified structure. The device and method are suitable for applying a film to 3D glass with two opposite curved edges due to convenient operations, high film-applying precision and efficiency.

A pipe joint coating for welded ends of pipes forming a pipeline. A last and third layer of a 3LPP coating system covering at least a circumferential weld area of the pipe joint is a heated sheet applied around the pipe with a machine including a mounting frame and a transport carriage rotatably movable on the mounting frame to move circumferentially about the pipe joint, and a roller applying an adjusted pressure to the sheet against the pipe and adapting to eccentricity or ovality of the pipe. The sheet is pressed below the pipe away from its overlapping ends, a first part of the sheet is then applied when the roller is rolled in a first direction, and a second part of the sheet is applied by the roller rolled back in the reverse direction around the pipe. The sheet is dimensioned to obtain an overlapped area between its extremities.
