It comprises: a film made of a resin in which an aperture pattern is formed, the aperture pattern passing through the film, the aperture being with a shape and dimension corresponding to the thin-film pattern in a pre-established region for formation of the thin-film pattern on the substrate; and a metal member that has an aperture part opposite the aperture pattern with a shape and dimension larger than the aperture pattern, the metal member being provided as a thin sheet in intimate contact with one surface of the film on an outside part of the aperture pattern of the film. The film is mutually distanced and distributed, at a position where the film does not overlap the aperture pattern, into a plurality of divided parts on one surface of the metal member.

A method of applying a coating to an aerosol generating assembly (1). The method comprises the steps of: providing an aerosol generating assembly (1) comprising a combustible heat source (2), an aerosol forming substrate (3), and a wrapper (4) joining the combustible heat source (2) and the aerosol forming substrate (3), the combustible heat source (2) having a downstream portion (22) circumscribed by the wrapper, and an upstream portion (21) not circumscribed by the wrapper; and applying, in a first application step, a coating formulation (6) from at least one applicator head (10, 14) onto the upstream portion (21) while rotating the aerosol generating assembly (1) about its longitudinal axis (9).

The invention relates to a dispensing system for use in cryogenic skin treatment that is capable of targeted delivery of a cryogen at a high rate, thereby achieving rapid freezing of targeted skin tissue. The dispensing system of the present invention uses a cryogen that contains dimethyl ether and is designed to deliver the cryogen in an accurate and very effective manner.

A paint-line hook for vehicle shocks includes a tube, an eye fixed to the tube, and a bracket fixed to the tube below the eye. The tube has a bottom end and a bore extending through the bottom end. The bracket defines a channel configured to engage a mount of a vehicle shock. A latch is rotatably supported by the tube. The tube includes a slot in communication with the bore. The latch extends through the slot and has a handle exterior to the slot and an end positioned to engage a threaded shaft of a vehicle shock in the bore. A vehicle shock may be retained in the tube and the tube acts as a paint shield during paint application to the vehicle shock.

Heads for an aerosol container are disclosed. The head comprises a handle body having a base configured to be coupled to the aerosol container, an outlet, a flexible tube housed within the handle body. The flexible tube is configured to provide fluid communication between the container exit of the aerosol container and the outlet. And the head further comprises an elastically deformable actuator comprising a lever arm, and a coupling portion integrally formed with the lever arm and configured to be mounted around the flexible tube, wherein the coupling portion is further configured such that when the lever arm is deformed by a user, the coupling portion actuates on the valve body of the aerosol container. Aerosol containers comprising such heads and kits for treatments skin lesions are also disclosed.

Systems and methods for protecting threads of metal pipes while coating the metal pipes with a protective coating are disclosed herein. Innovative metal couplings are used to protect the threads while a protective coating is applied to the metal pipes. The couplings are reusable and result in multiple efficiency improvements over previous methods and systems. Benefits include elimination of plastic caps and reduced waste, improved flowthrough in the powder coating process, more efficient thermo transfer in the thermal chamber, and an increase in the overall capacity of the powder coating operation.
