Abstract: A method for producing a continuous web of printed material for use in creating mailpieces. The continuous web has a width and a length, the length comprised of a series of attached sheets. The series of attached sheets are comprising envelope sheets and rectangular content pages. The content pages are rectangular in shape and may be oriented relative to the envelope sheets in a number of different configurations. In some configurations, two sets of content pages and/or envelope sheets can be printed across the width of the web. Sheets for forming business return envelopes may be printed in series with the content pages and envelope sheets. BREs may include individualized return addresses. A control code may be printed on one or more of the sheets for a given mailpiece, providing information for controlling assembly of the mailpiece.

Abstract: A method for creating mailpieces from a single web of printed material. The web of printed material includes printed matter to be used on envelopes, and other printed matter to be used on mail content to be included in the envelopes. The method starts with cutting consecutive sections of the web into separated sheets. Some of the separated sheets are envelope sheets including envelope printed matter, and some of the sheets are mail content sheets including mail content printed matter. The method includes cutting variable sized sheets depending on whether a sheet is a mail content sheet, or an envelope sheet. The method further includes cutting variable sized envelope sheets depending on the size of the mailpieces.

The content pages belonging to a same mailpiece are accumulated together. The separated envelope sheet is transported, bypassing the accumulating and turning steps. The accumulated and turned content pages are then merged with the envelope sheet, and the envelope sheet is folded and closed around the accumulated content pages to form a finished enclosing envelope.

Abstract: A shaving assembly includes a grippable body having an upper end, a lower end, and one or more side walls extending therebetween. The body includes a storage reservoir for holding a fluid shaving preparation. The storage reservoir is enclosed by the upper and lower ends and the one or more side walls of the body. The upper end of the body has a razor cartridge receiving area for having one or more razor cartridges attached thereto. The upper end of the body also has a plurality of openings adjacent the razor cartridge receiving area and in communication with the storage reservoir. A pedestal is disposed within the storage reservoir. The pedestal is selectively movable between the lower and upper ends of the body for urging the fluid shaving preparation through the plurality of openings at the upper end of the body to dispense the shaving preparation around the razor cartridges.

Abstract: A method of making a circuitized substrate having plated through holes free of filler material is provided. The method includes the steps of providing a dielectric substrate having first and second opposite faces. At least one via hole is formed from one face to the other. A first electrically conductive layer is applied onto the top and bottom faces of the dielectric member and onto the side wall of the via. First layers of photoresist are applied to each layer of conductive material and entering at least partially into the via hole. The first layers of photoresist are selectively exposed and developed to remove all of the photoresist, except that photoresist which is disposed in the via holes. Thereafter, a portion of the faces of the metal coatings on the surfaces of dielectric material and any photoresist remaining in the holes extending above the layers of electrically conductive material are removed to form a planar surface thinner than the thickness of the metal in the through hole.

Abstract: A wiring board for mounting an electrical device, which has an array of connectors thereon arranged in a grid pattern, wherein the connectors have at least two levels of criticality of connection to the substrate. The substrate has a plurality of mounting structure or features arranged in the same grid pattern to connect with the array of connectors on the electrical device. The mounting structures or features are divided into a plurality of at least two groups, with each group corresponding to a level of criticality of the connectors on the device. Each group of mounting structures has a discernible feature differing from each other group, to thereby permit different levels of inspection criteria for each group.

Abstract: A method of making a circuitized substrate which may be utilized as a chip carrier structure. The method involves the steps of providing a dielectric member and routing out a preselected portion of the base member to form an aperture. Metallization of the dielectric member and the walls of the aperture then occurs, followed by circuitization of the surfaces of the dielectric member. Direct metallization of the aperture walls eliminates many manufacturing steps previously required to metallize the aperture walls.

Abstract: A system for wet application of a dry film, such as a photoresist, to a generally planar panel having upper and lower surfaces, such as a printed circuit board, is provided. The apparatus comprises rotatable upper and lower wetting rollers each having an absorbent material such as neoprene on the surface thereof, and a mechanism for holding the upper wetting roller in forcible contact with the lower wetting roller so that rotation of the lower wetting roller is translated into rotation of the upper wetting roller. The lower wetting roller is positioned at least partially within a container providing a supply of wetting agent, such as water, such that the wetting agent is in contact with the absorbent material on the surface of the lower wetting roller.

Abstract: A process for laminating discrete sections of a supported photosensitive layer onto a continuing series of sheet substrates. Each substrate is advanced to and through the nip of heated application rolls, and a continuous length of the supported photosensitive layer is also supplied to the nip. When the substrate reaches a first location positioned between the application rolls, all movement ceases except that the rolls move from an inactive disengaged position toward the substrate to an active position to cause pressure contact between the photosensitive layer and the substrate to thereby laminate the photosensitive layer to the substrate. There is a pause for a predetermined period of time with the rolls in the active positions before the substrate is again advanced with the rolls still in the active positions and the photosensitive layer again supplied to the nip.
