  • Corrosion inhibiting sprayable thermoplastic cover for mechanical assemblies, and methods of making and using
    Patent number: 10300657
    Abstract: A Corrosion Inhibiting Sprayable Thermoplastic (“CIST”) cover is formed by spraying melted CIST onto a mold, allowing the CIST to cure, removing the cured cover from the mold using a series of cuts if necessary, positioning the cover on a mechanical assembly whose shape is significantly identical to the mold, and fusing the cuts on the cover using heat to reform the cover on the mechanical assembly.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: April 12, 2017
    Date of Patent: May 28, 2019
    Inventors: Kenneth Lee Boehm, Ivan Hess

  • Device and method for melting and spraying thermoplastics
    Patent number: 9211562
    Abstract: A single-phase portable device melts and sprays thermoplastic using 120-V power. The device includes a vessel for receiving and storing thermoplastic, and heated hollow rod circulators that draw melted thermoplastic upward and redistribute it within the vessel to facilitate rapid and even melting. The device includes a heated hose and nozzle for spraying the material, hose storage area, and wheels and handle for moving device and spraying in multiple locations as desired.
