Abstract: An application device for joining adhesive-tape sections that includes: a holder assembly having a plurality of holding devices that are movable relative to one another, each holding device configured to hold an adhesive-tape section such that a first main joining surface, a first end joining surface, and a second end joining surface of the adhesive-tape section are exposed; and a plurality of actuators. Further, each of the holding devices is configured for movement between first and second joining configurations. In the first joining configuration, each holding device holds an adhesive-tape section and each of the adhesive-tape sections are spaced apart from one another. In the second joining configuration, each holding device holds an adhesive-tape section wherein the first end joining surface of the adhesive-tape section bears against the second end joining surface of another adhesive-tape section, thus defining a continuous and closed adhesive adhesive-tape web.

Abstract: Housing seals and methods seal off a housing interior from a housing exterior. The housing seals and methods comprise an elastic adhesive strip that is arranged between a first housing element and a second housing element, wherein the adhesive strip comprises a first end portion having a first edge face, and a second end portion having a second edge face, wherein the adhesive strip and is arranged between the first housing element and the second housing element in such a way that the first and second edge faces lie substantially in a plane, the adhesive strip is arranged between the first housing element and the second housing element in a closed circulation, and the first edge face of the adhesive strip is in contact with the second edge face of the adhesive strip and forms a sealing gap.

Abstract: Housing seals and methods seal off a housing interior from a housing exterior. The housing seals and methods comprise a first elastic adhesive strip and a second elastic adhesive strip, the first and second adhesive strips being arranged between a first housing element and a second housing element. The first adhesive strip comprises a first end portion having a first front side and a first edge face, and a second end portion having a second front side and a second edge face, and is arranged between the first housing element and the second housing element such that the second housing element, with the exception of the application gap, in a closed circulation.
