Abstract: A wipe is provided that includes a first wiping member bonded to a backing member along valleys, whereby the wiping member includes a plurality of discrete peaks, and an adhesive is provided, in one embodiment, in the valleys and not on the peaks.

Abstract: A method of selectively applying pressure-sensitive adhesive to a nonwoven web and thereby forming a cleaning sheet having adhesive free peaks and adhesive containing valleys includes coating an adhesive transfer roll with adhesive, transferring a portion of the adhesive to raised regions of a female pattern forming roll, and transferring the adhesive from the raised regions of the female pattern forming roll to the web. An apparatus for selectively applying pressure-sensitive adhesive to a nonwoven web and forming a cleaning sheet is also described.

Abstract: The camera or data recording apparatus (30) consists of an optical system for creating a data record on a photosensitive medium and includes a laser (36) for generating a light beam and mirrors (62, 72, 74 and 82) for transmitting the light beam to a final light beam path (56e) which is rotated about an axis (63) parallel spaced from the final light beam path (56e). Further the camera (30) includes an assembly (38) for shaping and focusing the light beam to have a bar shape cross section which is directed to the rotating final light beam path and imaged onto a photosensitive medium (86). A modulator (58, 60) modulates the light beam from the laser (36) intermittently to image or record light beam bar shape cross sections defining data in an arcuate path (14) on the photosensitive medium (86), a computer (32) controls the modulator (58, 60) and a carriage (88) is provided for moving the photosensitive medium (86) toward and away from the axis (63) about which the final light beam (56e) rotates.
