Abstract: A light modifier mounting assembly includes an outer frame which is rotatably connected to an interchangeable adapter ring. The adapter rings have different sizes of light openings. One of the adapter rings is mounted on the lighting fixture. A soft tent modifier includes a plurality of rods which define the shape of the tent. The ends of the rods are connected to the rotatable outer frame. The image maker may also rotate the light modifier during use without disassembly of the mounting assembly.
Abstract: The automated system includes a fluid dispenser having an applicator tip which is used to apply a fluid to an object. A compliance mechanism is utilized to assist in maintaining the applicator tip of the fluid dispenser in contact with the object during the coating operation. A robot can be utilized to advance the object past the applicator tip during the coating operation. The fluid dispenser is mounted on a movable arm to allow the fluid dispenser to be moved or rotated into and away from the position where fluid is applied to the object. The automated system provides a fluid application system that can apply a precise and repeatable layer of fluid to an object. The use of the robot allows larger objects to be easily handled and for the coating process to be done in a rapid fashion. The automated system is flexible and can readily accommodate changes in the object that is to be coated or the configuration of the coating that is to be applied to the object.
Abstract: This remote control qualifier, typically a radio frequency (RF) qualifier, is an apparatus for monitoring a mechanical torque wrench with torque switch. The torque wrench includes a means for stimulating the torque switch wherein the torque switch can provide an electrical signal upon reaching target torque. The torque wrench also includes a transmitter for sending the electrical signals to a receiver. The RF qualifier is remote and includes a receiver for receiving the electrical signals from the transmitter of the torque wrench. The remote qualifier also includes a means for electrically computationally processing the electrical signals into other signals.
Abstract: The present invention provides an improved method for laminating a first three-dimensional apertured or non-apertured film material to a second flat or three-dimensional apertured or non-apertured film material utilizing the heat generated by the extrusion of the first and/or second materials and the films produced thereby.
