Patent number: 4600599Abstract: There is disclosed a method of and apparatus for producing a wear-resistant coating on a thin metallic strip, for example for the manufacture of coating scrapers for paper webs. After preparatory surface treatment the strip is passed longitudinally through a coating zone in which coating material in a molten state is sprayed onto the strip by a coating unit as the strip passes. The wear-resistant coating is built up in steps by the application of several coating layers one on top of the other, each being applied during a respective pass of the strip through the coating zone. The strip speed and the capacity of the coating unit are adjusted in relation to each other so that the heat supplied to the carrier material by each coating layer applied will be so slight in relation to the thermal capacity of the carrier material that the temperature increase in the carrier material does not cause any change in the physical properties of the carrier material.Type: GrantFiled: October 12, 1983Date of Patent: July 15, 1986Assignee: Inventing S.A.Inventor: Hans I. Wallsten

Patent number: 4262036Abstract: A pair of horizontally disposed nozzles above a horizontally disposed seal edge surface for coating a frit slurry in a closed pattern on the surface are moved in opposite directions from an abutting, mutually blocking position until the nozzles again come into sealing abutment at a second point above the surface. During the travel of the nozzles, a frit slurry is discharged therefrom at a constant rate and is deposited in a uniform stripe on the seal edge surface. Just before the nozzles abut at the end of the coating operation, the flow of frit slurry from one of them is terminated. This permits the frit slurry from the second nozzle to make a tapered overlay of the frit slurry from the earlier cut off nozzle without forming a bump or extra width at the joint. A rectangular gear generally conforming to the shape of the seal edge surface to be coated is employed to drive the nozzles at a substantially linear speed along the seal edge surface.Type: GrantFiled: March 27, 1979Date of Patent: April 14, 1981Assignee: Sony CorporationInventors: Hideki Mineyama, Shinzo Takei

Patent number: 4075363Abstract: A glass decorating color is applied to a glass article but is not bonded permanently to the glass. A finely divided heat settable plastic material is applied to the article over the impermanently bonded color and onto glass surface areas beyond the area covered by the color. Heat setting of the plastic material, even though insufficient to permanetly bond the color itself to the glass, forms a smooth plastic film over the decoration and fixes the color with respect to the glass surface.Type: GrantFiled: May 5, 1975Date of Patent: February 21, 1978Assignee: Anchor Hocking CorporationInventor: Herbert C.
