The present invention relates to a low-temperature dry preparation technology for a flame-retardant fabric, for use in compounding a first substrate with a second substrate, wherein the first substrate and the second substrate are pressed together by means of hot melt adhesive-based cold compounding: spraying and coating a surface of the first substrate with a hot metal adhesive in a flowable state, feeding the first substrate and the second substrate together into a press roller group, making the hot melt adhesive on the surface of the first substrate face the second substrate, and cold pressing the first substrate, the hot melt adhesive, and the second substrate together by means of the press roller group.

Method and system for layered wood product production
11453211 · 2022-09-27 · ·

A method and system for production of layered wood products employs local and independently operating robotic panel assembly cells including one or more veneer handling robots, one or more core handling robots, and one or more glue application robots to produce stacks of layered wood product panels locally near the pressing stations. Consequently, the stacks of layered wood product panels are independently built at, or near, the location of the pressing stations. This eliminates the need for traditional panel conveyors, traditional layered wood product panel assembly layup lines, and stack press delivery lines. This, in turn, eliminates thousands of moving parts and dozens of people from the layered wood product production process.

METHOD FOR TEACHING AND/OR OPERATING A LAMINATING METHOD AND/OR A LAMINATING DEVICE, METHOD FOR LAMINATING A FILM ELEMENT, METHOD FOR INSTALLING AND RETROFITTING A LAMINATING DEVICE FOR LAMINATING A FILM ELEMENT, DEVICE FOR LAMINATING A FILM ELEMENT, AND TEACHING STATION AND FILM ELEMENT
20220080715 · 2022-03-17 ·

The present disclosure relates to a method for teaching a laminating method as well as operating a laminating device, the both being for laminating a film element on a substrate part, in which designated path routes, in particular designated path curves, along which grippers for gripping the film element are subsequently moved to laminate the film element, are determined and taught by way of CAD data of the substrate part as well as the film element.

Laminate Nonconformance Management System

A method for managing nonconformances in laminates. The method comprises recording, by a sensor system, layup information about a layup of layers on a workpiece platform, wherein the layup of layers forms a workpiece and recording inspection information about the laminate on an inspection platform, wherein the laminate is formed from curing the workpiece. An analyzer in a computer system identifies a laminate nonconformance in the laminate using the inspection information and a user input verifies the laminate nonconformance in the laminate is present. An artificial intelligence system is trained by the computer system using the layup information, the inspection information, and the user input verifying the laminate nonconformance.

Film attaching apparatus for electronic device including display

The disclosure relates to a device (e.g., a jig) for attaching a protective film for protecting a display included in a foldable electronic device from impact and scratching. A film attaching apparatus for attaching a film to an electronic device is provided. The film attaching apparatus includes a display, wherein the film attaching apparatus may include a main body including a base plate, a jig disposed on a base plate and configured to seat the electronic device thereon, a film suction-fixing part inclined at a predetermined angle with respect to the jig, and a roller module disposed on the base plate and including a roller slidable above the jig, wherein the film suction-fixing part may include two or more divided suction areas which are sequentially arranged to correspond to a moving direction of the roller module and configured to have different suction forces.

Multilayer Coverings to Protect Surfaces from Lightning Strikes
20220065230 · 2022-03-03 ·

A multilayer protective covering can protect a surface from lightning strikes. The covering includes a bottom conductive layer affixed to the surface and having a first opening that is aligned with a grounding connection so that the grounding connection is exposed through first opening and not in contact with the bottom conductive layer. The covering also includes a dielectric layer affixed to the bottom conductive layer and having second opening aligned with the grounding connection so that the grounding connection is exposed through second opening and not in contact with the dielectric layer. The covering additionally includes a top conductive layer affixed to the dielectric layer and covering the grounding connection. The top conductive layer directs electrical current from a lightning strike on the surface to the grounding connection.

Laminating apparatus and method of fabricating display device using the same

A laminating apparatus and method of fabricating a display device are provided. According to an exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure, the laminating apparatus includes a first jig, which is configured to fix a window having curved surfaces, and a second jig, which includes a pressure pad facing the first jig. The pressure pad includes a top surface, which is convex toward the first jig, and depressed portions, which are inwardly depressed from side surfaces, respectively.

COMPRESSION TOOL AND METHOD OF FORMING GAS TURBINE ENGINE COMPONENTS

An assembly for forming a gas turbine engine according to an example of the present disclosure includes, among other things, a layup tool including a main body extending along a longitudinal axis and a flange extending radially from the main body, the flange defining an edge face slopes towards the main body to an axial face. At least one compression tool has a tool body having a first tool section and a second tool section extending transversely from the first tool section. The first tool section is translatable along a retention member in a first direction substantially perpendicular to the edge face such that relative movement causes the second tool section to apply a first compressive force on a composite article trapped between the axial face of the flange and the second tool section. A method of forming a gas turbine engine component is also disclosed.

SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR PRODUCING MULTI-LAYERED BOARD HAVING AT LEAST THREE MEDIUMS WITH AT LEAST TWO MEDIUMS BEING DIFFERENT
20210323266 · 2021-10-21 ·

A system and method for producing a board product characterized by having two corrugated mediums and at least one embossed medium in the board product. The board product may further include one or more facings that are adhesively coupled to either the corrugated medium, the embossed medium, or both. Generally speaking, a corrugated medium may be characterized as a paper product that exhibits flutes induced by a cross-corrugating process such that the induced flutes are perpendicular (or at least not congruent) with the machine direction of the paper product. An embossed medium may be characterized as a paper product that exhibits flutes induced by a linear-embossing process such that the induced flutes are aligned with the machine direction of the paper product. A resultant board product is stronger and more efficiently produced because of the linearly-embossed medium harnessing the natural strength of the paper in the machine direction.
