Abstract: A glass polishing device has a casing adapted for operative engagement with the exterior surface of a powered drill motor. The casing includes a handle extending from a second side opposite an opening in an opposite first side thereof from which a handle of the engaged drill motor projects. A triggerable fluid supply is coupled to the casing and projects fluid to a tool or a section of glass being resurfaced by the tool.

Abstract: Embodiments of the present disclosure provide methods, apparatuses, and systems for repairing of abnormalities such as cracks and/or breaks in substrates such as glass and/or plastics.

Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention provide methods and apparatuses for testing the structural integrity of glass. Embodiments of the present invention provide a method and apparatus for testing glass by applying one or more stresses to the glass in a controlled manner. Embodiments of the invention may hold a sheet of glass and may subject the glass to a variety of stresses by flexing, twisting, vibrating, etc.

Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention provide a device for controlling the temperature of glass by temporarily mounting the device on the glass and causing the flow of thermal energy into or out of the glass to raise or lower the temperature of the glass. In an embodiment, there is provided a windshield heating and cooling device that may heat and/or cool a windshield in the area of damage to be repaired. Such a device may have a thermoelectric control module, one or more heat sinks, and an attachment mechanism for attaching the device to a glass member to bring the device into thermal contact with the glass member.

Abstract: A system for removing scratches from glass windows, windshields and the like utilizing a compound applied to a powered polishing disk/pad which effectively “scrubs” away the scratches. Liquid needs to be applied during the process. To enable the operator to use both hands to maneuver the tool while also controlling the liquid application procedure, a hand piece is mounted to the tool which functions both as a second handle for the operator and also places a finger/thumb actuated liquid spray control accessible to the operator. A nozzle connected to the control and receiving liquid from the control is mounted for directing spray onto the glass surface outboard of the periphery of the pad.

Abstract: The invention includes an apparatus for curing resin in glass. The lamp system includes a light bulb, where the light bulb has a substantially annular shape configured to accommodate a resin injection system. The apparatus also includes a bulb housing having a substantially annular shape that substantially corresponds to the shape of the light bulb to facilitate accommodation of the light bulb within the bulb housing. The bulb housing has a hole, proximately at a center of the substantially annular shape of the bulb housing, configured to accommodate the resin injection system. As a result, the light bulb and the bulb housing surrounding the resin injection system in a relatively tight diameter, thereby facilitating uniform curing of the resin.

Abstract: A convertible repair device arranged to repair bulls-eye type cracks and elongate cracks in a laminated glass. The device has a stepped housing that has a large cylinder and a small cylinder. A piston is mounted in the housing and is movable in the cylinders. A mouth formed in the small cylinder is arranged to receive the filler material. The device is arranged to withdraw air from the bulls-eye type crack by moving the piston upward. When the air is withdrawn the piston is moved downward and the filler material flows into the crack. The piston has a thread form on its upper portion and a plunger projected into the thread form provides controlled movement of the piston without imparting a force on the surface of the laminated glass which is beneficial for filling elongate cracks.
