  • Apparatus and method for controlling coating frowns in hopper coating
    Patent number: 5395653
    Abstract: The present invention relates to dual cavity hoppers and is an apparatus and method for controlling frowns. The dual cavity hoppers are provided with adjustable bypass means for providing fluid from the inner cavity to the outer cavity or alternatively for providing fluid directly to the outer cavity. The bypass means can be used on end-fed or center-fed dual cavity hoppers. The uniformity of the laydown across the width of the delivery slot is improved.

  • Coating hopper inserts
    Patent number: 5389150
    Abstract: The present invention describes slot inserts for use in a coating hopper having at least one metering slot. The slot inserts allow widthwise adjustment of the coating width. The slot inserts push fit into the metering slot and are held by friction between the walls of the metering slot. In one aspect of the invention, the inserts have different widthwise dimensions at each end allowing control over the edges. For dual cavity hoppers, the slot inserts can be shaped so as to prevent stagnant regions within the hopper cavities.
