According to one embodiment, a coating apparatus includes a coating bar configured to face a member to be coated, and a plurality of nozzles configured to supply a liquid toward the coating bar. A number of the nozzles is 3 or more. An arithmetic mean roughness Ra of at least a part of a surface of the coating bar is not less than 0.5 μm and not more than 10 μm.

A material deposition device for decorating an object. The device has a housing as a structural framework, an object holder, and a container releasably coupled to the housing. The housing has an object support for supporting the object to be decorated. The container creates a volumetric enclosure with the housing. The device is configured to deposit decoration materials onto the object.

A fluid supply system includes: a support body having: a base plate; a side plate provided on one side of the base plate in the longitudinal direction so as to be orthogonal to the base plate; and a top plate provided on one end of the base plate in the height direction so as to be orthogonal to the base plate and the side plate; a process-gas supply unit provided on an outer surface of the top plate; a liquid supply unit provided on an inner surface of the side plate so as to communicate with the process-gas supply unit via a communication-flow-channel forming block; and a purge-gas supply unit provided on an inner surface of base plate so as to communicate with the process-gas supply unit via a communication pipe.

A device for producing a pattern combination on a clothing includes the following: a rotary screen, a cylindrical jacket surface with a perforation pattern that defines a first pattern component. Material in the liquid or pasty state is pressed through the perforations of the jacket surface of the rotary screen and deposited on the surface of the clothing in order to produce the first pattern component on a surface of the clothing, while the rotary screen, rotating several times about a longitudinal axis thereof, rolls on the surface of the clothing in at least one path that continuously revolves on the surface of the clothing at least once. At least one device produces, synchronously and/or simultaneously, a second pattern component, which device is connected indirectly or directly to the rotary screen. The device for producing the pattern combination also includes a post-run system.

A method of coating a substrate with a washcoat using a substrate coating apparatus is disclosed. The method comprises locating the substrate below the washcoat showerhead; bringing the partition ring into contact with the face of the substrate to thereby define a central region of the face of the substrate which lies within an interior of the partition ring and a peripheral region of the face of the substrate which lies outside the partition ring; conveying washcoat from the source of the washcoat, along the conduit and through the washcoat showerhead; discharging the washcoat out of the nozzle apertures towards the face of the substrate, the showerhead plate of the washcoat showerhead discharging washcoat onto both the central region and the peripheral region of the face of the substrate.

The invention relates to a method for surface treating a substrate (28) by means of an electrical corona discharge, wherein aerosols (5) are sprayed into discharge area defined by an active gap formed between a corona electrode and the substrate (28) during the discharging, designed such that the aerosols (5) are sprayed substantially opposite the direction of gravity.

A process capable of commercial scale manufacturing of inexpensive, shaped film products includes placing a mask over a substrate; delivering a film-forming composition through a nozzle to form a raw shape on the substrate; removing the mask; and solidifying the film-forming composition to provide the shaped film product disposed on the substrate. The mask has a delivery surface and an opposite substrate-facing surface and at least one aperture having a design corresponding to the desired shaped film product. The nozzle is disposed in sealing engagement with the delivery surface of the mask to the at least one aperture of the mask during delivery of the film-forming composition.

A method for producing an abrasion-resistant wood-based panel with a top side and a bottom side, wherein at least one decorative layer, in particular as a printed decoration, is provided on the top side, includes applying at least one first resin layer to the at least one decorative layer on the top side of the wood-based panel, uniformly scattering abrasion-resistant particles onto the first resin layer on the top side of the wood-based panel; wherein the first resin layer on the top side of the wood-based panel provided with the abrasion-resistant particles is not dried after application, and applying at least one second resin layer to the first, moist resin layer provided with the abrasion-resistant particles on the top side of the wood-based panel, then drying the assembly of first resin layer and second resin layer on the top side of the wood-based panel in at least one drying apparatus.

According to one embodiment of the invention, a coating apparatus includes a first pipe, a first pump, a first nozzle, a second nozzle, and a holder. The first pipe includes a first inflow port, a first outflow port, and a second outflow port. The first pump is configured to supply liquid toward the first inflow port. The first nozzle includes a first nozzle inflow port and a first nozzle discharge port. The first nozzle inflow port is connected to the first outflow port. The first nozzle discharge port is configured to discharge the liquid passing through the first pipe. The second nozzle includes a second nozzle inflow port and a second discharge port. The second nozzle inflow port is connected to the second outflow port. The second nozzle discharge port is configured to discharge the liquid passing through the first pipe. The holder holds the first nozzle and the second nozzle. The holder is configured to form a first state and a second state. In the first state, a height of the first nozzle discharge port and a height of the second nozzle discharge port are not less than a height of the first pipe. In the second state, the height of the first nozzle discharge port and the height of the second nozzle discharge port are lower than the height of the first pipe.
