    摘要: A segmented hook and loop type fastener (10) accommodates molding contours. Each segment (12) may be surrounded by a gasket (22) barrier, or covered by another sort of cover (322), or left unprotected. The fastener component (10) is a plurality of fastening segments (12). Carried on the fastening face (18) of a base member (16) are a plurality of fastening elements (20), either hook-type or loop-type. Located between and joining each adjacent pair of fastening segments (12) is a flexible neck (14) that is narrower than the fastening segment (12). The flexible neck (14) region is typically flexible around two or three orthogonal axes. Each segment may have a barrier for use during an operation to incorporate the fastener (10) into a molded body (53). The barrier would prevent any liquid foaming material from contacting the fastening elements (20) if the fastener is placed in the mold (53) with the fastening elements (20) pressed against the wall of the mold (53). The cover (322) may be enveloping or space filling. Several different types of apparatus and methods for fabricating such a fastener are also disclosed.

    摘要: A fastening tape has a sheet-form base carrying an array of hooking members (10, 22, 24, 34) each having a height (h) of about 0.008 inch (0.2 millimeter) or less, as measured from the base, and fiber-engaging features, such as re-entrant tips (18, 32), disposed less than about 0.003 inch (0.08 millimeter) from their upper surfaces, as measured normal to the base. Such hooking members are employed to releasably engage directly into foams and fine denier non-woven materials, such as those of insulation, filters, construction moisture barriers, disposable gowns and diapers.

    摘要: A rotating mold roll (215) defines an array of molding cavities (252). The mold roll (215) is positioned adjacent a pressure device (220, 280) to define a pressure nip (235, 285). At least one of the mold roll (215) and the pressure device (220, 280) define a molding recess (250, 257, 253) that is larger than the molding cavities (252). Resin (230) is introduced to the rotating mold roll (215) and pressed into the molding cavities (252) and the molding recess (250, 257, 253) to form discrete projections (130, 530, 630, 830, 930) and a series of discrete, longitudinally spaced apart structural features (110, 510, 610, 710, 810, 1410). The projections (130, 530, 630, 830, 930) and structural features (110, 510, 610, 710, 810, 1410) are carried on a continuous sheet-form base (115, 515, 615, 715, 815, 1415). The resin (230) is removed from the mold roll (215) to expose a continuous preform sheet including the base (115, 515, 615, 715, 815, 1415), the projections (130, 530, 630, 830, 930), and the structural features (110, 510, 610, 710, 810, 1410). The structural features (110, 510, 610, 710, 810, 1410) are arranged along the preform sheet in a longitudinally repeating pattern. The preform sheet is separated into multiple discrete products including an array of the projections (130, 530, 630, 830, 930) and at least one of the structural features (110, 510, 610, 710, 810, 1410).

    摘要: An elongated electrical cable (30) or flexible circuit board (1500) includes an electrically conductive path (36, 1509) and an insulating body (632) encompassing and electrically isolating the conductive path, the insulating body including an exposed surface (624) having an array of fastener elements (622) extending therefrom, the fastener elements arranged and constructed to engage mating fastener elements associated with a supporting surface (16, 16') to selectively secure the cable or flexible circuit board to the supporting surface. The fastener elements can be loop-engageable fasteners (622) and/or loops (144). Such a cable or flexible circuit board is continuously formed by introducing an electrical insulating material including a thermoplastic resin into a gap (102, 202) formed adjacent a peripheral surface of a rotating mold roll (104), the mold roll defining an array of cavities (134) therein, the insulating material being introduced under pressure and temperature conditions selected to cause the insulating material to at least partially fill the cavities to form fastener element stems (623, 622') integrally with and extending from one broad side (624) of a strip of said insulation material; while introducing conductive wires (678) and/or a conductive path (1409, 1509) formed on or within a substrate (1401, 1501) to the gap so as to cause the insulating material to envelop and electrically isolate the conductive path and/or to cause the conductive path to become an integral part of the strip of insulation material from which the fastener element stems extend.

    摘要: A hook member (16, 31, 33, 35, 51, 53, 57, 160) is provided that is capable of engaging fibers (156). The hook member includes a stem (18, 34) extending upwardly from a sheet-form base (11) to a distal end. The stems (18, 34) have leading (42, 50, 56, 60, 64, 68, 72) and trailing (44, 52, 58, 62, 66, 70, 74) edges that form an apex angle therebetween. A crook (40) is integrally formed with and arches along a curved axis directly from the stem (18, 34) of the hook member to a tip. The crook (40) has a width (Wc) measured along a line tangent to the tip and perpendicular to a central axis (80) that bisects the apex angle (α) and intersects a plane substantially parallel to the sheet-form base (11) that is less than about 20 percent of a height (H) of the hook member measured along a line extending perpendicular to the base (11).
