  • Patent number: 11253017
    Abstract: Described herein are shields adapted for permanent attachment or removable attachment in the armpit area of a shirt. The shields are multi-layered fabrics that absorb perspiration, and in certain aspects, are used to control, reduce, or prevent perspiration from bleeding through and being shown on the outer surface of a garment. For example, these garments can include, but are not limited to, a multilayered fabric having at least a first fabric layer configured to wick moisture away from a person's body, at least a second fabric layer configured to absorb the moisture, and at least a third fabric layer that does not absorb moisture. As further described herein, various antimicrobial agents can be included in at least one fabric layer. These antimicrobial agents can be used to reduce or prevent the growth of microbes in and/or on the fabric, and these antimicrobial agents can be used to reduce or prevent odors derived from odor producing microbes.

  • Publication number: 20050079087
    Abstract: Provided is a steel alloy and process for manufacture thereof. The steel alloy has improved ductility, weldability and dimensional stability. Also provided is a manufacturing mold having a manifold that may be formed of the steel alloy. The manifold may include sprues or runners such that the manifold may be used in plastic injection mold. The steel alloy has the chemical composition comprised of (by weight percent) about 0.16-0.2 carbon, about 0.6-0.9 manganese, up to about 0.02 phosphorous, up to about 0.02 sulfur, about 0.25-0.45 silicon, about 2.3-2.7 chromium, up to about 0.2 nickel, up to about 0.15 copper, up to about 0.15 molybdenum, about 0.15-0.03 aluminum and the balance being iron with trace amounts of ordinarily present elements.

  • Patent number: 4325613
    Abstract: Arrangement for making color-picture tubes screens consisting of a faceplate panel and an associated shadow mask by applying phosphor layers to the faceplate using photographic techniques, at which devices for applying, exposing, and developing photosensitive layers are provided. To reduce the handwork without obtaining an assembly-line-like automatic arrangement with interdependent devices, the devices for exposing the screen are united with devices for inserting the shadow mask into, and removing it from, the faceplate to form an automatically operating subarrangement which is independent of the remainder of the arrangement.
