A multi-layer decorating element includes a base and a plurality of plates forming decorative elements. The base has a length between the first and second ends thereof and an increased width from the first end to the second end. The first end of the base is curved. The second end of the base is divided by a gap into two segments. The gap has a closed end and an open end. The open end is disposed at the second end of the base. The closed end has a smaller width than the open end. The plurality of plates includes a side with a hot melt glue layer and is hot pressed on a side of the base. The plurality of plates is disposed within peripheral edges of the base and includes a plurality of overlapped sections. The plurality of plates has different shapes.

The present invention describes various methods for manufacturing gel composite sheets using segmented fiber or foam reinforcements and gel precursors. Additionally, rigid panels manufactured from the resulting gel composites are also described. The gel composites are relatively flexible enough to be wound and when unwound, can be stretched flat and made into rigid panels using adhesives.

The present disclosure generally relates to devices and methods for furniture protection. More particularly, the present disclosure relates to foam-film sheets configured to protect furniture from damage. An exemplary foam-film sheet as disclosed herein includes a sheet of foam material having a first lateral edge and a second lateral edge; a sheet of film material having a first lateral edge and a second lateral edge; a first seal between a portion of the foam material proximate its first lateral edge and a portion of the film material proximate its first lateral edge; and a second seal between a portion of the foam material proximate its second lateral edge and a portion of the film material proximate its second lateral edge, wherein the film and foam are substantially unsealed along the entire transverse width between the first and second sealed portions near the lateral edges of the foam material.

A roofing shingle includes an overlay sheet, an underlay sheet, and a reinforcement member. The overlay sheet includes a headlap portion and a tab portion, wherein the overlay sheet has an overlay sheet height. The underlay sheet is secured to a bottom surface of the overlay sheet such that a region of the underlay sheet overlaps a region of the headlap portion of the overlay sheet. The reinforcement material is secured to a top surface of the headlap portion of the overlay sheet, wherein the reinforcement material is configured to improve nail pull-through, wherein the reinforcement material extends beyond the overlapping regions of the headlap portion and the underlay sheet.

A composite plate structure includes a composite plate and a resin component. The composite plate includes a first fiber layer, a second fiber layer and a core layer. The second fiber layer has a first region, wherein an area of the second fiber layer is smaller than an area of the first fiber layer. The core layer is disposed between the first fiber layer and the second fiber layer, wherein the core layer is exposed at the first region. The resin component is connected to the composite plate, wherein the resin component is combined with the core layer at the first region. In addition, a manufacturing method of the composite plate is also provided.

According to some illustrative embodiments, a protective product is provided that includes: at least one expandable slit paper sheet, said at least on expandable slit paper being expanded between opposing ends of said slit paper; a first embossed paper sheet facing said expanded slit paper sheet and a second paper sheet facing an opposite side of said at least one expanded slit paper sheet, at least one of said first embossed paper sheet and said second paper sheet being fixed to said expanded slit paper sheet at the opposing ends of said expanded slit paper sheet and thereby maintaining said expanded paper in its expanded state, said first embossed paper sheet having a plurality of embossings that increase the rigidity of said embossed paper sheet, whereby inhibiting deformation of said embossed paper sheet that is fixed to said expanded slit sheet paper.

The present invention provides an electrical debonding type adhesive sheet capable of producing a joined body in which a voltage can be stably applied to an electrical debonding type adhesive layer. An electrical debonding type adhesive sheet according to a first embodiment of the present invention includes a first adhesive layer, a substrate for voltage application including an electroconductive layer and a base layer, and a second adhesive layer in this order, and has a first protrudent part, in which the first adhesive layer and the substrate for voltage application extend and protrude with respect to the second adhesive layer, and a second protrudent part, in which the substrate for voltage application extends from the first protrudent part and protrudes with respect to the first adhesive layer.

A vehicle structural element made of plastic has at least one carbon filler reinforced region and at least one fiberglass reinforced region. In a method for producing the vehicle structural element, a pre-heated carbon fiber reinforced region and a pre-heated fiberglass reinforced region are placed in a press and shaped.

Disclosed are a method of manufacturing a flexible thin-film type super-capacitor device and a super-capacitor device manufactured by the same. The flexible thin-film type super-capacitor device comprises a base film which has flexibility; a separator which is interposed between the base films; and an active material which is formed on the base film. Thus, flexibility is given since thickness is very thin while maintaining high electrical conductivity and high binding property. In addition, economic feasibility is high and mass production is possible. Further, it is possible to stably and efficiently contain a highly corrosive material.
