Granted: 1999-04-27
Abstract: L'invention concerne un conditionnement d'article absorbant tel qu'un étui de serviette hygiénique et un système de fermeture adhésif conçu pour ce type d'emballage. Le système de fermeture adhésif se compose d'une patte de refermeture revêtue d'un adhésif permettant la femeture dudit étui et de la serviette hygiénique en position pliée avant et après utilisation. L'adhésif adhère à une surface de réception telle qu'une partie de l'étui de la serviette hygiénique qui fait partie intégrante du conditionnement. La surface de réception doit être renforcée pour empêcher qu'elle ne se déchire lors de l'ouverture du conditionnement. Le système de fermeture de l'invention assure une bonne liaison et peut être ouvert facilement sans être dechiré grâce à la complémentarité savamment étudiée de l'adhésif, de la patte et de la surface de réception. Les caractéristiques de surface, le module d'élasticité et l'épaisseur de la surface de réception sont également spécifiés. L'agressivité (adhérence rapide) et les masses d'adhésif à appliquer sont soigneusement sélectionnées afin de produire un système de fermeture adhésive refermable qui adhère facilement et assure une bonne liaison.

Abstract: Apparatus is disclosed to control a Yankee hood profile along the cylinder wrap so as to provide a structurally stable hood having controlled impingement distances at operating temperatures.  Radial support of the hot hood internals are located at or near the extremities of the hood wrap and the internal profile along the cylinder wrap is on an adjusted cold shape so that the profile is even when operating temperatures are reached.  Thus, the hood is "deformed" (not pre-strained) when cold but, when the operating temperature is reached, it assumes the desired configuration.

Patent CA-2180927-C (CA)
Inventor: HOPPE STEFFEN
IPC: C23C8/34
Filed: 1996-07-10
Granted: 2006-10-03
Abstract: The present invention relates to a process for producing corrosion resistant and wear resistant layers on materials that are based on iron, in which the areas that are close to the surface are enriched with nitrogen, carbon, and oxygen.      In order to produce an iron-based material with a particularly durable and effective corrosion and wear resistant layer, it is proposed that, in a first step of the process, the material is subjected to nitrocarburation in order to form a connective layer consisting of iron carbonitrides. The material is then subjected to a plasma-assisted low-pressure process to activate the surface of the material that has the connective layer, before an unbroken and even oxide layer is formed on the existing connective layer during subsequent oxidation.      Corrosion and wear resistant layers with service lives clearly superior to known protective layers in standardized corrosion tests are obtained by the activation of the connective layer formed in the nitrocarburation process during the plasma-assisted low-pressure process.

Abstract: A woodworking press for effecting a mating of jointed boards. The instant invention is an elongated pressing/ jacking device which includes, at one end, an anchor piece, at the other end a reversible head for contact of a workpiece and a central turnbuckle structure connecting the anchor and the head. The anchor is adapted for nailing to a substrate and has a feature to enhance prying the anchor from the substrate. The turnbuckle device is conventional, but is enhanced by use of a transfixed, shuttling handle. The head is unique in that it is designed having multiple edges which may be brought into mating contact with wood joint structures of varying morphology. Through use of a simple, yet elegant, connection mechanism, the head may be alternately positioned so as to present different mating configurations to the workpiece.

Filed: 1995-05-03
Granted: 2000-08-22
Abstract: An absorbent article having an expandable component. The expandable component comprises a compressed, resilient element disposed within an air impermeable envelope. The compressed element provides the absorbent article with a thin, low bulk profile prior to use of the disposable absorbent article, thereby reducing shipping and storage space. At the point of use of the absorbent article, the air impervious envelope is opened, thereby permitting entry of air into the envelope and expansion of the compressed element. In one embodiment the expandable component is a spacer for maintaining fecal void space in a disposable diaper. Alternatively, the expandable component can provide displacement of the topsheet relative to the backsheet along the longitudinal centerline of a sanitary napkin.

Granted: 2000-01-25
Abstract: A coating edge limiter for a coating arrangement with a short dwell time. Color is fed under pressure into a coating chamber formed by a backing roll around which a paper web is guided, a barrier wall, a doctor blade element and sealing blocks located at both ends of the coater. A formatting plate almost completely covers an application zone between the doctor blade element and the barrier wall so that an edge region of the web is sharply delineated and kept completely free of color. In each of the sealing blocks water is supplied via channels to depressions thereby forming a pressure cushion. This pressure cushion prevents the pressurized slip in the coating chamber from flowing out laterally and ensures that the formatting plate is pressed flatly against the web. The coating edge limiter thereby makes it possible to establish very precisely the width of the web to be produced.
