摘要： A plasma spray process used for coating surfaces of a variety of components made of a plastic substrate. Powder particles are injected into a plasma jet where they soften and then strike the surface at high velocity to produce a strongly adherent coating. The component or work piece the coating is being applied to remains cool because the plasma is localized at the plasma gun. The plasma spray process allows for the melting of glass particles, creating a transfer mechanism to the plastic substrate. Components having complex shapes can be coated, without the issues currently encountered in dip coating. The powder coating is applied via plasma spraying, as a protective layer, giving glass like surface properties to a component having complex molded or formed shapes.

摘要翻译： 用于涂覆由塑料基材制成的各种部件的表面的等离子体喷涂工艺。 将粉末颗粒注入到等离子体射流中，在那里它们软化，然后高速冲击表面以产生强粘附的涂层。 由于等离子体位于等离子体枪处，因此施加涂层的部件或工件保持冷却。 等离子喷涂工艺允许玻璃颗粒熔化，从而产生一个转移机构到塑料基材上。 具有复杂形状的组分可以被涂覆，没有当前在浸涂中遇到的问题。 通过等离子体喷涂施加粉末涂料作为保护层，对具有复杂模制或成形形状的部件赋予玻璃样表面性质。

摘要： An improved vehicle headrest includes a bead between a plastic sleeve and a cloth facing. The cloth is bonded to the plastic sleeve such that an exposed face of the cloth is quickly and reliably connected to the plastic sleeve. The plastic sleeve is then filled with a foam and a positioning post. The inventive headrest is formed by initially placing the cloth material on positioning structure in an anvil. The plastic sleeve has been previously rotationally molded, and is slid onto the anvil and over the cloth material. A dielectric bar is then brought into contact with the plastic sleeve, and a bead is formed. As the bead is formed, a cutting blade cuts the plastic material inwardly of the bead. The cut portion of the sleeve is removed exposing the cloth material. A "RF" compatible barrier layer is formed on a rear face of the cloth material and prevents foam from reaching the exposed forward face.
