Patent number: 5641371Abstract: A simple combination of conventional operations uses a twin press configuration of tandem stationary, vertically acting heating and cooling platen presses in separate frames of a laminating machine which is loaded by rollingly transferring a book into the heating press in either of two loading-paths. One is at right angles to the path in which the book is to be processed ("process-path") so as to avoid using an entrance station. The other uses an entrance station which provides a loading-path parallel to the processing path through daylight openings ("daylights") in the presses, so as to support each book on the edge-conveyor means while it is stationary and coplanar with the loading-path. The system operates with a minimum cycle time based on the physical properties of the sheets to be laminated.Type: GrantFiled: November 20, 1995Date of Patent: June 24, 1997Assignee: Alfred D. Lobo Co., L.P.A.Inventor: William John Sanko

Patent number: 5641370Abstract: A simple combination of conventional operations uses a twin press configuration of tandem stationary, vertically acting heating and cooling platen presses in separate frames which share a fixed, hybrid bottom platen in a laminating machine. The machine therefore has aligned daylight openings ("daylights"). A set of sheets to be laminated is sandwiched between cover plates of a book which is loaded by rollingly transferring it with an edge-conveyor means, into the heating press. The path in which the book is processed ("process-path") starts at an entrance station and progresses linearly through the daylights. The system operates with a minimum cycle time based on the physical properties of the sheets to be laminated. Successive books may be loaded, in a machine using only two single daylight openings; or, in ganged single daylights; depending upon the capacity per unit time sought. A novel quick-locking carrier is provided in which a sandwich to be laminated is held.Type: GrantFiled: November 20, 1995Date of Patent: June 24, 1997Assignee: Alfred D.

Patent number: 4668229Abstract: The vexing problem of post-urinary drip in males can be solved by providing a loop means removably disposed around the scrotum, the loop means being located above the testicles. The loop means is attached to a slotted sheath of polymeric material which sheaths the penis in its normal or "rest" (non-erect) position; the loop and sheath may each be formed, integrally or separably, from an urine-absorbent ("u-a" for brevity) film of hydrophilic synthetic resinous material; or, the loop and sheath may each be formed from a natural fabric such as cotton, or a non-absorbent synthetic resinous material in which sheath a u-a liner means, preferably of polymeric material such as a monoolefinically unsaturated carboxylic acid-containing polymer is removably held. The hydrophilic polymer is formed from a block copolymer of sequences of acrylonitrile and sequences of a major portion of glutarimide units; or, a film formed from sequences of acrylonitrile and sequences of a major portion of acrylamide units.Type: GrantFiled: September 9, 1986Date of Patent: May 26, 1987Assignee: Alfred D. Lobo & Co., L.P.A.Inventors: Anthony Fago, Alfred D. Lobo

Patent number: 4600728Abstract: Elastomer compositions are provided which contain high molecular weight water-insoluble humic acid humates. The compositions show improved bloom resistance in both the uncured and the vulcanized or otherwise cured state. Methods to make sponge rubber are also disclosed in which the humic acid humate is the gas producing agent. A predominantly humic acid humate containing composition maintains a clean mold, and curing an uncured article coated with the humate at elevated temperature will clean metal molds which have dirty surfaces, particularly when green coated articles are vulcanized in contact with the mold's surfaces.Type: GrantFiled: July 24, 1985Date of Patent: July 15, 1986Assignee: Alfred D. Lobo Co., L.P.A.Inventors: Harold R. MacKeighen, Vincent T. Cortesi
