  • Patent number: 8448685
    Abstract: An apparatus for bonding a first carbon composite to a second carbon composite through a reactant layer includes a housing, and a pair of conductive press plates electrically isolated from the housing. The press plates are adapted to position the two parts to be bonded with a reactant layer therebetween. The press plates are subjected to an electrical potential and a clamping force, sufficient to initiate a combustion reaction that creates a molten ceramic to bond together the carbon-carbon composites.

  • Patent number: 7586071
    Abstract: An RF welder, and a method of operation thereof, is disclosed that has circuitry that automatically affects system impedance so that, throughout the welding or embossing cycle, a generator is capable of delivering the same power to a die and fabric, and cabling is capable of dissipating a load that is less than a preselected amount.

  • Publication number: 20090101286
    Abstract: Tubing sealers, whether hand held or desk mounted, heat seal liquid filled plastic tubing on command to develop sealed liquid filled easily separable segments serially attached to one another. The sealer generates a source of RF energy to heat seal the plastic tubing on placement of the tubing between a fixed jaw and a tubing compressing moveable ground jaw. The moveable ground jaw serves as a heat sink to dissipate heat and prevents a heat buildup during rapid repetitive operation of the sealer. The configuration of the moveable ground jaw coming in contact with the tubing primarily, but in combination with the degree of compression of the tubing and the RF power applied, controls both the integrity of the seal and the ease with which the sealed segments of tubing can be separated from one another.

  • Patent number: 6494987
    Abstract: In a plate bonding system for bonding first and second substrate discs (or other plates) with adhesive, there are provided a first section for bringing the first and second substrate discs closer to each other with the interposition of adhesive, and a second section for producing an electric field in the interspace between the first and second substrate discs. The second section produces the field and thereby deforms the adhesive into a tapered shape to minimize the initial contact area and thereby prevent voids from being involved in the adhesive.

  • Patent number: 6294046
    Abstract: To provide a heat-sealing apparatus capable of: achieving a complete sealing property by causing a liquid or dirt having entered small irregularities in a tube inner face to flow out of a sealed zone together with a molten resin; and a heat seal with no crack caused by the molten resin having flowed into container and with an excellent compression strength. A heat-sealing apparatus for forming a packaging material 1 made of a laminate including a synthetic resin layer into a tubular-shape of a container, and transversely heat-sealing a tubular packaging material container filled with fluid by using a sealing jaw 3 having a high-frequency coil 2 with a ridge 11 on its flat pressing face and a jaw 5 opposing to it, wherein a first groove 16 is disposed on at least one pressing face of the high-frequency coil 2, capable of forming a synthetic resin bulge adjacent to the outer side of a zone to be sealed on a container's interior side.
