Abstract:
Verfahren zur Herstellung von zumindest einseitig klebenden Klebebändern, wobei eine Klebebandbahn, bei der die zumindest eine klebende Seite mit einem ersten Liner 1 eingedeckt ist, in eine Schneidvorrichtung geführt wird, in der in Maschinenrichtung aus der Klebebandbahn insgesamt N einzelne, nebeneinanderliegende Klebebandstreifen 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7 insbesondere verlustfrei erzeugt werden, ohne dass der erste Liner 1 verletzt wird, jeder zweite Klebebandstreifen 2, 4, 6 oder 3, 5, 7 vom ersten Liner 1 entfernt wird und auf einen zweiten Liner 8 mit jeweils einem Abstand a zwischen den einzelnen Klebebandstreifen 2, 4, 6 oder 3, 5, 7 aufgebracht wird, der erste Liner 1 und der zweite Liner 8 jeweils zwischen den auf dem ersten 1 und auf dem zweiten Liner 8 befindlichen Klebebandstreifen 2, 4, 6 oder 3, 5, 7 durchschnitten werden, die einzelnen Klebebänder 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7 mit dem Linerstreifen zu insgesamt N Rollen in Form einer archimedischen Spirale aufgewickelt werden.
Abstract:
Sanitary articles (1) that can be worn as a pair of pants, said articles (1) comprising a central body (2), which can be set around the crotch region of the user, said central body (2) extending m a longitudinal direction (X1) between two opposite ends, and at least one pair of side panels (3), which are connected to one of the ends of the central body (2) and extend on opposite sides of said central body (2) to define at least in part the waistband of the article (1). The side panels (3) are connected to the central body (2) whilst they are in a folded condition. The aforesaid panels are preferentially obtained in a folded condition, with the distal edge (7) set in the proximity of the proximal edge (6).
Abstract:
Absorbent pads for personal sanitary items are made by a device that comprises a set of pick-up heads (2) moving along a feed path (P), a first application unit (5) and a second application unit (6) by which a respective first portion (4a) and second portion (4b) of an absorbent pad are placed on the pick-up head (T), and a motion-inducing mechanism, coupled to the pick-up head (2), which is designed to bring about a relative displacement between the first portion (4a) and the second portion (4b), so that when the second portion (4b) is placed over the first portion (4a), the one will be covered by the other only in part. A method of making absorbent pads using the device in question includes the steps of preparing a first portion (4a) and a second portion (4b) of an absorbent pad, then placing the second portion (4b) over the first portion (4a) in such a way that the first portion (4a) is covered only in part by the second portion (4b).
Abstract:
A headgear for use with a mask includes a first strap (660) being configured to engage a back of a patient's head and extend on either side of the patient's parietal bone behind the patient's ears and assume, in use, a substantially circular or oval shape. At least a portion of the first strap is substantially inextensible. The headgear also includes at least one second strap (620, 630) configured to removably connect the first strap to the mask. The second strap may be more extensible than the first strap. At least a portion of the first strap is self-supporting such that the headgear maintains a three dimensional shape when not in use. The substantially inextensible portion of the first strap is constructed to resiliently return to a predetermined shape when not in use. The arcuate region includes a first portion that may be arranged to align substantially parallel with a top of the patient's head and a second portion being arranged to align substantially to a rear surface of the patient's head.
Abstract:
The present application discloses a composite pad structure that includes a substrate bonded to a plurality of discrete, spaced-apart, resilient elements engaged to at least one reinforcing structure.
Abstract:
A method allows for rapid manufacture of relatively thick adhesive coatings using a continuous process, where a single thin coating is continuously converted into a single thicker adhesive laminate. An exemplary process includes the steps of: (1) producing a web having a first surface with an adhesive layer and a second surface with a release liner; (2) slitting the web longitudinally into a first section and a second section, each section having a first surface with an adhesive layer and a second surface with a release liner; (3) laminating a backing film to the adhesive layer of the first section; (4) removing the release liner of the laminate of step (3) exposing the adhesive layer of the first section; (5) positioning the laminate of step (4) and the second section so the exposed adhesive layer of the laminate of step (4) faces the adhesive layer of the second section; and (6) laminating the second section to the laminate of step (4), wherein the adhesive layer of the laminate of step (4) is combined with the adhesive layer of the second section. The resultant laminate of this exemplary process has one surface having a backing film, one surface having a release liner, and an inner area having an adhesive layer.
Abstract:
An assembly includes a light-permeable film layer, a release liner, and a print pattern. The print pattern includes a base layer. The print pattern sub-divides the film layer into a plurality of discrete base layer areas and/or a plurality of transparent areas. The base layer includes a design imaging surface of a first color. The release liner includes an imperforate material. The release liner includes a release surface. The imperforate material when viewed through said light permeable film layer is a second color contrasting with said first color by the graytone of said second color differing from the graytone of said first color by at least 10%. This contrast may provide a more realistic perception of how the assembly will look in situ (e.g., on a window).
Abstract:
This is a method to create 3-dimensional images from a 2 -dimensional image. This Method utilizes various pieces of paper produced within the process and a method of attachment all together with layering and spacing in 3 - dimensions to create a final piece of artwork which is 3- dimensional. Among other uses the end product of this method can be used as a free standing work of art which can be matted and framed and placed either hanging or attached to a wall or other surface or placed on an easel or other tripod mechanism for free standing on a table or floor or other surface.
