  • Publication number: 20250276496
    Abstract: Apparatuses and methods for production of tea bags or coffee bags from web material are disclosed. An apparatus (1) is provided comprising a first roller (10, 60) and a second counterrotating roller (12, 62) arranged to form at least one nip zone therebetween for applying pressure to a sealing region of web material guided through the at least one nip zone. At least one induction heater element (70, 72) is arranged within at least one of the rollers to apply heat generating energy to at least one of the rollers for heating the sealing region of the web material in the at least one nip zone. A heating apparatus within a roller can comprise at least one induction heater element arranged axially relative to the roller so that heat generating energy is applied only to a segment of the roller.

  • Publication number: 20230019308
    Abstract: A method of forming a Light Emitting Diode (LED) precursor is provided. The method comprises forming a LED stack comprising a plurality of Group III-nitride layers on a substrate, the LED stack comprising a LED stack surface formed on an opposite side of the LED stack to the substrate, and masking a first portion of the LED stack surface, leaving a second portion of the LED stack surface exposed. The second portion of the LED stack surface is subjected to a resistivity changing process such that a second region of the LED stack below the second portion of the LED stack surface comprising at least one of the Group III-nitride layers of the LED stack has a relatively higher resistivity than a resistivity of the respective Group-III nitride layer in a first region of the LED stack below the first portion of the LED stack surface.

  • Patent number: 6422279
    Abstract: A run flat tire has a plurality of reinforcing wedges located in the tire sidewall with the hardness of each wedge generally diminishing in the radially inward direction of the sidewall. Since the bead filler is harder than the radial innermost wedge, the hardness at generally the top of the bead filler increases in the radial inward direction. The reinforcing wedges partially overlap each other and can generally have any configuration. The changing of hardness of the radial wedges results in a wedge sequence and thus a more even strain distribution throughout the tire sidewall. This strain distribution extends the run flat life of the tire and also provides a good balance with other tire performance parameters.
