Title: Method of and apparatus for powder coating wood substrates
Inventor: HAUER PETER
IPC: B05D3/02
Filed: 2007-08-14
Abstract: In the powder coating of wood substrates, there is the problem that on the one hand they must not become too hot and on the other hand the coating requires a certain temperature for crosslinking. With the known methods and devices, adequate crosslinking is not ensured. The object is to overcome this disadvantage. For this purpose, the freshly sprayed wood substrates (2) are pretreated by means of brief infrared radiation in such a way that the lacquer powder adheres to the wood substrates (2) and that the surfaces of the powder layer are pre-crosslinked. Then, the surfaces of the wood substrates (2) pretreated in this way are subjected to intensive hot air treatment, wherein the average temperature of the wood substrates (2) remains below 100°C.

Title: Side loading conduit spacer
Inventor: MCCOY DONALD P
IPC: H01B11/00
Filed: 2007-05-24
Abstract: Apparatuses and methods are disclosed for mounting conduits within spacers for underground installation. Spacers for side loading of conduit, as opposed to older methods of end loading, allow construction workers to easily assemble conduits to a plurality of spacers above-ground. The side loading technique uses spacers having bores that communicate with each other, preferably in a radial manner. Thus, a first plurality of conduits may be assembled or mounted to an inner portion of the spacers and then at least a second plurality of conduits may be assembled and mounted to an outer portion of the spacers. Cables later pulled through the conduits are typically those used for the transmission of electricity or communication signals. Other embodiments use bores that do not communicate with each other but are secured to the spacers with an outer banding saddle.
