Patent number: 8794292Abstract: Provided is double-faced adhesive tape joining apparatus that allows accurate joining of a double-faced adhesive tape on a tape joining surface of a workpiece in a curved or bent shape with no damage on a surface of a separator joined to the double-faced adhesive tape and no floating of the separator. Specifically, a hand-operable base includes a tape guide for guiding the double-faced adhesive tape successively supplied, and a joining head for pressing against the joining surface of the workpiece the double-faced adhesive tape supplied to a front end of the base. The base and the joining head are configured as to rotate relatively about a support axis toward a longitudinal tape direction.Type: GrantFiled: April 20, 2010Date of Patent: August 5, 2014Assignee: Nitto Denko CorporationInventors: Shinji Inokuchi, Kazuhiko Kinpara, Naoto Kato, Isao Hirose

Publication number: 20130228267Abstract: A double-sided pressure-sensitive adhesive tape does not generate wrinkles or floating on a release liner even when the tape is attached to an adherend having a bend or curve, with the release liner held and with the tape bent in a width direction. A method is for attaching the double-sided pressure-sensitive adhesive tape to an adherend having a bend and/or curve. The double-sided pressure-sensitive adhesive tape of the present invention includes, on at least one side of a pressure-sensitive adhesive body, a release liner having a notch and/or slit in at least one edge in the width direction.Type: ApplicationFiled: April 15, 2013Publication date: September 5, 2013Applicant: NITTO DENKO CORPORATIONInventors: Hiroyuki Tsubaki, Kazuhiko Kinpara, Isao Hirose

Patent number: 8430375Abstract: A foam filling member that can hold a foam sheet in a looped shape stably, without increasing the number of components, to provide improved vibration suppression and sound insulation. The strip-like foam sheet is formed in a looped shape by bending round it, so that both end portions of the foam sheet are overlapped with each other in a thickness direction thereof to form an overlapped portion therein. Then, insertion shafts of a clip are inserted through the overlapped portion, so that the overlapped portion is held in sandwich relation between a base portion and a head portion to form a foam filling member. Then, a supporting portion of the fixing portion of the clip is inserted in a fixing hole of an inner panel and fixed to the inner panel.Type: GrantFiled: August 27, 2010Date of Patent: April 30, 2013Assignee: Nitto Denko CorporationInventors: Kazuhiko Kinpara, Shinji Muto, Shinpei Nishikawa, Takehiro Ul

Publication number: 20120279645Abstract: A double-faced adhesive tape is accurately joined to a bent tape joining face of a workpiece while a separator on an upper surface remains without separation of the separator. Specifically, the double-faced adhesive tape has the separator on the upper surface remaining and a separator on a lower surface being separated, and a rotary cutter forms slits at given intervals along sides of the separator on the double-faced adhesive tape that is to be supplied to a tape joining position. Then, the double-faced adhesive tape having the separator with the slits formed therein is guided to the tape joining position at a front end of apparatus, and is successively joined to a front face of the workpiece while being pressed with a joining roller.Type: ApplicationFiled: April 20, 2010Publication date: November 8, 2012Inventors: Shinji Inokuchi, Kazuhiko Kinpara, Naoto Kato, Isao Hirose
