Abstract: An apparatus for selectively inflating multiple balloons simultaneously, sequentially, or in random order include a housing for storing pneumatic and electrical control devices and gas conduits. Ports are formed through the housing and each having a nozzle secured thereon. One end of one gas conduit is connected to an external source of pressurized gas and another end is in communication with the ports. An actuator is associated with each port for selectively actuating the delivery of pressurized gas to the associated nozzle manually or automatically. Each port may be automatically closed when predetermined parameters are met in the automatic mode.

Abstract: A system for adhesively fastening water deflector type panel liners upon supporting panel surfaces of automotive vehicle doors and the like substrates, includes forming shallow, narrow channels in the liners and positioning thick strips of pressure sensitive adhesive within the channels. The liners are applied upon the panel surfaces and pressure is applied against the channels towards the panel surfaces to partially collapse the channels and flow the adhesive into contact with the panel surfaces. The adhesive flows into, and smooths any irregularities on the panel surfaces while adhering the liners thereto. The exposed faces of the adhesive strips may be covered with a wide mesh fabric to normally prevent the adhesive on one strip from sticking to adjacent surfaces of other similar liners in a stack or a roll of liners. When pressure is applied to the channels, the adhesive flows through the mesh into contact with the supporting panels.
