A method of making an aerosol container suitable for use as an aerosol dispenser. The aerosol container includes at least a valve and product delivery device joined to an outer container. The method has the steps of sealing the valve to the product delivery device and outer container at respective annular welds or other bonds joining the valve to the product delivery and to the outer container. The welds, or other bonds may be concentric, with one circumscribing the other, in the same plane or different planes. Suitable product delivery devices include bags and dip tubes. Suitable welds include spin welds.

The present invention relates to a brush with fusion interlocking bristle strip and a method of manufacturing the same. The brush includes carrier strips and knotted bristle strips bonded together by ultrasonic welding and interlocking.

The present invention provides polymer-metal composites free of adhesives and methods of making same. In particular, the present invention takes advantage of a unique metallic bonding surface created by exposure to a laser whereby micron-sized fragments are fixed to the metallic bonding surface such that a high strength bond with polymeric material is created upon exposure to a second laser.

It is provided an electronic control device including a resin molded body, a metal body, and an electronic component, wherein the resin molded body and a main surface of the metal body are bonded, and at least a part of a side surface continuous to the main surface of the metal body is in contact with a side contact portion provided in the resin molded body.

A system and method for producing a disposable undergarment, with the lateral edges of the undergarment bonded by means of an ultrasonic horn. When a blank is formed for an individual undergarment, the lateral edges of opposing edges of the blank will form the seam. When the edges are sealed together, a seam is formed. The individual undergarments may be later separated along the seams.

A method for joining two carpet segments, each carpet segment having an underside and at least one edge, comprises abutting one edge of one carpet segment with one edge of the other carpet segment, positioning a length of seam tape under the abutting edges, and activating the adhesive to secure the seam tape to the undersides of both carpet segments. The seam tape comprises an elongated base layer being resilient in a longitudinal direction, an intervening layer applied to the base layer, and an adhesive applied to the intervening layer.

An aerosol container suitable for use as an aerosol dispenser. The aerosol container includes at least a valve and product delivery device joined to an outer container. The valve and product delivery device have respective annular welds or other seals joining the valve and product delivery to the outer container. The welds, or other seals may be concentric, with one circumscribing the other, in the same plane or different planes. Suitable product delivery devices include bags and dip tubes.

Disclosed are: an ultrasonic welding member which is independent of a first member and a second member and which is held between a surface to be welded of the first member and a surface to be welded of the second member prior to ultrasonic welding between the surface to be welded of the first member and the surface to be welded of the second member having a shape parallel to or fitted into the surface to be welded of the first member, the ultrasonic welding member characterized by including a thermoplastic resin and satisfying a discontinuous forming requirement, an outside opening requirement, and a bonding place reduction requirement; and an ultrasonic welding method using the ultrasonic welding member. The ultrasonic welding member may include a plurality of streaks at least in a part thereof. The ultrasonic welding member may be a substantially lattice-shaped fabric or textile mesh at least in a part thereof. When the ultrasonic welding member is held between the surface to be welded of the first member and the surface to be welded of the second member, crossing parts of threads of the mesh may form a bonding place between the ultrasonic welding member and the surface to be welded of the first member and a bonding place between the ultrasonic welding member and the surface to be welded of the second member.

The present disclosure relates to methods and apparatuses for mechanically bonding substrates together. The apparatuses may include a pattern roll including a pattern element protruding radially outward. The pattern element includes a pattern surface and includes one or more channels adjacent the pattern surface. The pattern roll may be positioned adjacent an anvil roll to define a nip between the pattern surface and the anvil roll, wherein the pattern roll is biased toward the anvil roll to define a nip pressure between pattern surface and the anvil roll. As substrates advance between the pattern roll and anvil roll, the substrates are compressed between the anvil roll and the pattern surface to form a discrete bond region between the first and second substrates. As such, during the bonding process, some yielded substrate material flows from under the pattern surface and into the channel to form a channel grommet region.

When a blank is formed for an individual undergarment, the lateral edges of opposing edges of the blank will form the seam. When the edges are sealed together, a seam is formed. The individual undergarments may be later separated along the seams.
