Abstract: An apparatus for processing a composite structure includes a mandrel that includes a tooling surface and vacuum bagging that includes an elastomeric membrane and a bagging surface. The apparatus also includes a surface interface formed between the mandrel and the elastomeric membrane. The surface interface includes a suction channel formed in at least one of the tooling surface of the mandrel and the bagging surface of the elastomeric membrane. The elastomeric membrane is configured to be sealed to the mandrel along the suction channel in response to a vacuum applied to the suction channel.

Abstract: A part transfer system includes a movable support, a plurality of arms coupled to the movable support, and an end effector coupled to each of the plurality of arms. The end effector includes a body and a plurality of dividers each coupled to the body. The plurality of dividers divides the body into a plurality of partitions. The end effector includes a plurality of vacuum ports each in fluid communication with one of the plurality of partitions. The part transfer system further includes a vacuum source in fluid communication with at least one of the plurality of vacuum ports. Each of the plurality of vacuum ports is configured to draw a fluid from the plurality of partitions to establish a vacuum between the end effector and a part that is engaged with the end effector, thereby securing the part to the end effector.

Abstract: A portable computing device is disclosed. The portable computing device can take many forms such as a laptop computer, a tablet computer, and so on. The portable computing device can include a single piece housing and a display module. The display module can include a protective top glass cover that is bonded to a plastic display frame and surrounded by a seal frame. The display module can also include a display panel and its associated circuitry suspended from the display frame below the protective glass cover. The display module is coupled to the single piece housing using mounting clips in a manner that allows the display module to move relative to the single piece housing during an impact event. The plastic display frame can include inserts that provide structural support near openings in the single piece housing.

Abstract: The present invention is directed to two- and three- component aqueous polyurethane composition which are cured at ambient temperature and have excellent chemical resistance without reduction in abrasion resistance and flexibility. The two component system comprises a first component of a hydroxy functional aqueous polyurethane dispersion and phenoxy resin blended together, and a second component of polyisocyanate. The three component system comprises a first component of a hydroxy functional aqueous polyurethane dispersion, a second component of epoxy resin; and a third component of polyisocyanate. Generally, the mass of the epoxy or phenoxy resins is 1 to 50% of mass of the polyurethane solids in the dispersion and the mass of the polyisocyanate is 50 to 200% of the mass of the polyurethane solids in the dispersion. The two or three component polyurethane composition has a mass fraction of solids of preferably 10-50%.
