20090202727 | Non-contact edge coating apparatus for solar cell substrates and methods for using same - A non-contact edge coating apparatus applies coating material to an edge of a non-circular solar cell substrate without physical contact. The apparatus may include a rotatable substrate support configured to hold the substrate. The apparatus may further include an applicator configured to receive a coating material and apply the coating material to an edge of the substrate while the substrate is rotated without any portion of the applicator physically touching the edge of the substrate. The substrate support may be mechanically coupled to a cam, which contacts a follower mechanically coupled to the applicator. A variety of coating materials may be employed with the apparatus including hot melt ink and UV curable plating resist. | 08-13-2009 |
20110027483 | ARTICLES FOR HIGH TEMPERATURE SERVICE AND METHODS FOR THEIR MANUFACTURE - An article for use in aggressive environments is presented. In one embodiment, the article comprises a substrate and a self-sealing and substantially hermetic sealing layer disposed over the bondcoat. The substrate may be any high-temperature material, including, for instance, silicon-bearing ceramics and ceramic matrix composites. A method for making such articles is also presented. The method comprises providing a substrate; disposing a self-sealing layer over the substrate; and heating the sealing layer to a sealing temperature at which at least a portion of the sealing layer will flow. | 02-03-2011 |
20110052816 | METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR TREATING THE PERIPHERAL REGION OF A SANDWICH COMPONENT - The invention refers to a device and method for treating a peripheral region of a sandwich component, in particular of a sandwich component having a honeycomb structure and two spaced-apart coating layers and a core structure having a plurality of cavities. The invention is characterized by applying a layer of liquid thermoplastic material onto an peripheral region of the sandwich component such that thermoplastic material penetrates into cavities in the core structure of the sandwich component, and hardening the applied thermoplastic material. | 03-03-2011 |
20110195190 | SURFACE TREATMENT LIQUID, SURFACE TREATMENT METHOD, HYDROPHOBILIZATION METHOD, AND HYDROPHOBILIZED SUBSTRATE - Disclosed is a surface treatment liquid which enables simple and efficient hydrophobilization of a substrate and prevention of collapse of a resin pattern or etched pattern. Also disclosed are a surface treatment method using the surface treatment liquid, a hydrophobilization method using the surface treatment liquid, and a hydrophobilized substrate. When a substrate is hydrophobilized, the substrate is coated with a surface treatment liquid containing a silylating agent and a hydrocarbon non-polar solvent. When a pattern is prevented from collapse, the surface of a resin pattern formed on a substrate or etched pattern formed on a substrate by etching is treated using a surface treatment liquid containing a silylating agent and a solvent. | 08-11-2011 |

20130156955 | Methods For Foil Stamping Parts Having Asymmetrical Edges - A method for coating a part that has an asymmetrical edge by attaching the part to a part holder, placing a film between the part and a mandrel, rolling the part over the mandrel such that the asymmetrical edge of the part contact the film, and, moving one or both of the mandrel and the part holder in an angular relationship to one another as the angle of the part's asymmetrical edge changes. A film dispenser and a film retriever are provided and preferably they move cooperatively in at least two dimensions with respect to the part holder. The film has a first edge and a second edge, and the film can be a decorative coating, a protective coating or combinations of these. The film dispenser holds the first edge of the film, the film is positioned between the mandrel and the part holder and the film retriever holds the film second edge. | 06-20-2013 |
20150072077 | SYSTEM FOR APPLYING A COATING TO A WORKPIECE - An applicator head for a vacuum coating system includes two applicator manifolds. Each applicator manifold includes two coupled manifold plates, with one including a manifold aperture, and each is affixed to the respective shell plate so that each manifold aperture aligns with the respective shell aperture. An applicator channel is formed between the manifold plates of each applicator manifold, and the applicator channel is fluidically coupled to the manifold aperture of each respective applicator manifold. Each applicator channel forms an applicator port at a leading edge of each respective applicator manifold, and each leading edge is configured to be complementary in shape to an edge of a workpiece to be coated. One of the leading edges is configured to have different application gaps with respect to different portions of the edge of a workpiece. First and second face plates are disposed over the leading edges of the applicator manifolds. | 03-12-2015 |
20150104577 | WHEEL PROTECTING PANEL - A wheel protector is provided. The wheel protector may be a substantially circular panel having a front surface, a rear surface and a rim. The wheel protector may be made plastic, paper, metal or any suitable material. The circumference of the rim is sized to be substantially the same as the circumference of a wheel. Therefore, the wheel protector may cover the wheel while a user is spraying tire dressing onto the tires of a vehicle. | 04-16-2015 |
20150321948 | METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR COATING GLASS EDGES - A process and system for applying coating materials to glass edges of various profiles. The glass edge is coated by picking up the coating material from an applicator such as, for example, a roller, through precise independent or relative control of the spatial relationship between the edge of the glass article and the applicator to achieve desirable product attributes such as coating thickness, profile, coverage areas and consistency. Such spatial relationships include the gap distance between the roller and applicator, coating thickness on the applicator, applicator and/or glass speed, and the like. | 11-12-2015 |
