  • Laminated Can Sealant
    Publication number: 20220242610
    Abstract: A metal can with a monolithic laminated hermetic seal is provided. The lid and sidewall of a can each include a laminated layer bonded to an interior surface. The lid and sidewall of the can are rolled to form a double seam and mechanically seal the can. When the double seal is formed through the mechanical rolling process and before heating, a bi-laminate layer forms between the adjacent laminated interior surfaces. The bi-laminate layer is then heated, causing each laminate layer to melt and fuse with the adjacent laminate layer. This creates a monolithic laminate layer that fills gaps within the double seam to form a hermetic seal that is impervious to air, water, gas, liquids, and other fluids.

  • Wire Feeder for Manual or Automatic Circuit Board Insertion
    Publication number: 20190308265
    Abstract: A wire feeder is supplied with a bundle of pre-cut wires held substantially vertical orientation in a wire bin. Through gravity and optionally through vibration, a single strand from the bundle of pre-cut wires falls through a hole in the bottom of the bin, either for hand placement or for automatic placement. The floor of the bin is sloped to help migrate the strands of wire towards the hole in the bottom of the bin.
