  • Patent number: 10239298
    Abstract: A method for producing a layer assembly, wherein the layer assembly includes a substrate, an outer layer and an adhesive layer arranged between the substrate and the outer layer and the adhesive layer makes at least partial contact with the substrate and the outer layer, includes the step of: swiveling the substrate and the outer layer towards one another, such that the distance between the top substrate edge and the top outer layer edge decreases and the adhesive is moved in the direction of the top substrate edge and of the top outer layer edge; wherein this is carried out in such a manner that, during at least part of step B), the angle bisector of the angle ? adopts an angle of ??45° to ?45° with respect to the vertical.

  • Publication number: 20170001423
    Abstract: A method for producing a layer assembly, wherein the layer assembly comprises a substrate (100), an outer layer (200) and an adhesive layer (300, 310) arranged between the substrate (100) and the outer layer (200) and the adhesive layer (300, 310) makes at least partial contact with the substrate (100) and the outer layer (200) comprises the step of: swivelling the substrate (100) and the outer layer (200) towards one another, such that the distance between the top substrate edge (120) and the top outer layer edge (220) decreases and the adhesive (310) is moved in the direction of the top substrate edge (120) and of the top outer layer edge (220); wherein this is carried out in such a manner that, during at least part of step B), the angle bisector (1000) of the angle ? adopts an angle of ??45° to ?45° with respect to the vertical.
