Methods and apparatuses for applying coatings on a baggy web are provided. A Mayer rod and a back-up roll engage with each other to form a nip. The back-up roll has a deformable inner layer with a surface thereof covered by a deformable outer layer. The Mayer rod and the flexible web at a contacting area are impressed into the back-up roll with a machine-direction nip width W and a nip engagement depth D, which enables formation of a coating having a substantially uniform thickness.

A powder-rubbing apparatus comprises: a rotatable rubbing roll having a rotational axis; a substrate path; an oscillating mechanism for oscillating the rotatable rubbing roll along the rotational axis; and a powder coating die comprising an inlet port in fluid communication with an outlet port disposed adjacent to the substrate path. The substrate frictionally contacts the rotatable rubbing roll within a rubbing zone. A dispenser for dispensing gas-borne powder is in fluid communication with the inlet port of the powder coating die. The dispenser is aligned such that at least a portion of a gas-borne powder dispensed from the powder coating die is deposited directly onto at least one of the rotatable rubbing roll or the substrate and conveyed into the rubbing zone. A method of using the powder-rubbing apparatus and a powder-rubbed web preparable thereby are also disclosed.

The present application provides an apparatus that is for producing a fiber-reinforced resin having reinforcement fibers aligned in one direction and that is capable of, with a relatively simple configuration, connecting a preceding reinforcement fiber and a subsequent reinforcement fiber when switching between the reinforcement fibers. An apparatus according to the present invention is for producing a fiber-reinforced resin having reinforcement fibers aligned in one direction, and comprises: an impregnation part which impregnates a reinforcement fiber with a resin; and a switching device which performs switching of reinforcement fibers on the upstream side of the impregnation part, from a preceding reinforcement fiber to a new reinforcement fiber. During the switching operation, the switching device forms a fabric using the preceding reinforcement fiber and the new reinforcement fiber as warp and other fibers as weft so as to connect the new reinforcement fiber with the preceding reinforcement fiber.

The present invention discloses a laminating machine. A glue outlet roller set and a feeding driving device are arranged in a machine body; the glue outlet roller set is located on the side, close to an outlet, of a laminating roller set; the linear speed of the roller face of the glue outlet roller set is larger than that of the roller face of the laminating roller set; the static friction force between the glue outlet roller set and a laminating object is smaller than that between the laminating roller set and the laminating object; and when the laminating object enters the glue outlet roller set through the laminating roller set, the laminating roller set and the laminating object are in static friction fit, meanwhile, the glue outlet roller set and the laminating object are in sliding friction fit, the plastic-packaged laminating object is tensioned and subjected to glue outlet, a glue film is prevented from being wrinkled and corrugated, and the laminating quality is improved.

An electrode plate manufacturing method of the present disclosure uses an electrode plate manufacturing apparatus including: a first roll and a second roll facing each other at a first position; and a third roll facing the second roll at a second position, and the manufacturing method rotates the first to the third rolls, feeds an electrode material at the first position, and brings a current collecting foil to pass through the second position. The electrode plate manufacturing apparatus includes: a flow passage roll having a flow passage thereinside and an outer circumferential surface disposed to be in contact with an outer circumferential surface of at least one of the first roll, the second roll, and the third roll; and a circulating unit circulating a fluid through the flow passage. The circulating unit circulates the fluid through the flow passage of the flow passage roll during manufacturing the electrode plate.
