  • Publication number: 20130029109
    Abstract: The present invention discloses a conductive film including a substrate, a reflective index adjusting structure, and a transparent conductive layer. The reflective index adjusting structure may be disposed on the substrate, and the transparent conductive layer may be disposed on the reflective index adjusting structure, which may be disposed between the transparent conductive layer and the substrate. The transparent conductive layer may cover parts of the reflective index adjusting structure. When a light enters into the transparent conductive layer/the reflective index adjusting structure of the conductive film with an incident angle, the light may be associated with a first reflectance/a second reflectance. The difference between the first reflectance and the second reflectance is designed to be lower than a first threshold value. Accordingly, the present invention may eliminate the display difference between an etched and a non-etched area of the conductive film and improve the visual quality.

  • Patent number: 8361604
    Abstract: Methods and apparatuses for releasably attaching support members to microfeature workpieces to support members are disclosed herein. In one embodiment, for example, a method for processing a microfeature workpiece including a plurality of microelectronic dies comprises forming discrete blocks of material at a first side of a support member. The blocks are arranged on the support member in a predetermined pattern. The method also includes depositing an adhesive material into gaps between the individual blocks of material and placing a first side of the workpiece in contact with the adhesive material and/or the blocks. The method further includes cutting through a second side of the workpiece to singulate the dies and to expose at least a portion of the adhesive material in the gaps. The method then includes removing at least approximately all the adhesive material from the support member and/or the workpiece with a solvent.

  • Publication number: 20130004732
    Abstract: A new product is made by an improved pultrusion method including the use of repetitiously moved cooled consolidation plates by the action of which excess plastic resin is allowed to escape from the sides and wherein the flow of plastic carries and shapes transverse reinforcing fibers to curve along the edge of the product preventing delamination of the product. The repetitiously moved consolidation plates provide a more accurately dimensional product and require less pultrusion drawing force than the usual cup and plunger pultrusion die.

  • Publication number: 20130004835
    Abstract: A multi layer laminate sheet suitable to form a battery pouch is described. The laminate sheet includes a core metal layer, a sealant layer, and an insulating layer. The sealant layer is bonded to one surface of the core metal layer, and the insulating layer is bonded to the other surface of the core metal layer. The insulating layer has a width that is greater than the width of the core metal layer, such that the insulating layer extends past two edges of the core metal layer. When the pouch is formed by folding the laminate sheet, the insulating layer protects the edges of the core metal layer of the laminate sheet from being exposed around the edges or sides of the pouch. Other embodiments are also described and claimed.

  • Patent number: 8171691
    Abstract: The floor member is a laminated structure of flexible compressible cork sheet material and flexible plastic sheet material in the form of a floor tile or a floor plank. The cork sheet material and plastic sheet material are offset, from each other and have respective predetermined thicknesses to enable the floor member to be bendable to facilitate assembly of a plurality of the floor members into a floor covering. The compressible cork sheet material provides sound and heat insulation and the flexible plastic sheet material is yieldable to surface irregularities of a floor base. The cork sheet material is sandwiched between two layers of clear plastic material to provide a distinct sight of the structural presence and thickness of the cork sheet at an edge of the floor member.

  • Publication number: 20120094088
    Abstract: A vehicle is wrapped by a printed adhesive film where the film is also applied over doors and other areas intended not to be covered. The film is cut at the door edge and over the area by adhesively attaching a tape having a release coating on the front surface and carrying a filament along a center of the front side. The printed film is applied over the door, the area not to be covered and the tapes and is cut along the door edge and around the area by pulling the filament from the tape so that a strip of the film at the door edge and the film over the area can be removed. The film can be stretched and pulled away from the tape for reapplying for proper fit.

  • Publication number: 20120079793
    Abstract: An objective of the present invention is to provide a bag sealing tape which can be repeatedly used without damaging a banded object such as a bag or the like when the object is opened, and which does not have to be separated for disposal; and a banding device and a banding method using the bag sealing tape. The bag sealing tape of the present invention includes adhesion zones and non-adhesion zones, and the adhesion zones are disposed on the surface of a base film in a stepping stone manner in a length direction of the base film.

  • Publication number: 20120082823
    Abstract: A method for bonding a first body (2) to a second, panel-shaped body (3) at bonding surfaces (2a, 3a) lying opposite each other, the second body (3) projecting in at least one direction (X) beyond an edge (2?) of the first body (2). The method includes: producing a plurality of spacers (4a to 4e, 4a? to 4e?) on at least one of the bonding surfaces (2a), applying adhesive (5) into intermediate spaces (6a to 6d) between the spacers beyond an outer spacer (4e, 4e?) as far as an adhesive periphery (5a), which is formed at an edge (2?) of the first body (2), and bonding the bodies (2, 3) by bringing the bonding surfaces (2a, 3a) into contact at the spacers (4a? to 4e?). A prescribed distance (d) between the adhesive periphery (5a) and the outermost spacer (4e) is set to provide a desired state of deformation of the panel-shaped body (3) after a shrinkage of the applied adhesive (5) (e.g. minimized bending of the body.

  • Publication number: 20120070599
    Abstract: Medical dilatation balloons comprise a polymer that has the attribute of memory, and/or is crosslinked to impart memory. Such balloons exhibit a reduced tendency to overinflate at high inflation pressures. Furthermore, such balloons when shrunk radially by the application of heat while restraining axial shrinkage, exhibit customizable linear or non-linear compliance curves and lower crosslinking profile relative to the same balloon when unshrunk. Also disclosed is an expansive element within a tube whose outer diameter is equal to the outer diameter of the tube from which it was made. In addition, disclosed are (a) processes for preparing crosslinkable polymers, (b) joining crosslinked balloons to catheter systems, (c) forming shrunk balloon elements, and (d) forming an expansive element within a tube whose outer diameter is equal to the outer diameter of the tube from which it was made.
