Abstract: A method of making and filling a plastic bag includes the steps of providing a bag having a plurality of microperforations; filling the bag with a powdered product; securing the bag; removing at least a portion of entrapped air in the bag through the microperforations; and sealing the microperforations. A product includes a bag configured for being formed from a plastic film into which a plurality of microperforations have been created. The bag contents include less air than that present in the bag when the top and the bottom were secured, at least a portion of the air sealed inside the bag having been expelled through the microperforations. A sealant is used for sealing the microperforations.

Abstract: A combustible gas inflator and a method for filling and sealing the inflator are provided. The inflator includes an enclosure configured to receive and store the combustible gas under pressure. The enclosure has an outer wall comprising an exterior surface, an interior surface, and a fill aperture extending therethrough. The fill aperture has a first aperture portion and a second aperture portion. The first aperture portion is proximate the exterior surface and the second aperture portion is proximate the interior surface, wherein the first aperture portion is larger than the second aperture portion. The inflator further includes a sealing member configured to seal the fill aperture. The sealing member has a first portion and a second portion. The first portion is configured to sealingly engage a portion of the second aperture portion and the second portion is configured to sealingly engage a portion of the first aperture portion.

Abstract: A manufacturing process and apparatus therefore are provided for processing an electronic device comprising oxidizable material during processing. The electronic device is located inside a chamber and is heated a processing temperature with a heater. A reductive atmosphere is created in the chamber by supplying a gas comprising glycolic acid vapor while processing the electronic device at the processing temperature.

Abstract: A method of attaching an end seal to a manufactured seed is provided. The method includes providing a manufactured seed having an open end and inflating a sealing material to form an enclosure having an interior surface. The method also includes placing the enclosure into contact with the open end of the manufactured seed and attaching the enclosure to the manufactured seed to seal the open end of the manufactured seed.

Abstract: A solder coated lid for a package for an electronic device has a lead-free solder layer comprising a Sn—Sb based solder with a liquidus temperature of at least 220 degrees C. provided on at least a region of the lid where the lid is to be joined to a base of a package. The lid can be joined to a base of a package at a low temperature, thereby reducing vaporization of solder components and adhesion thereof to electronic devices within the package.

Abstract: An apparatus for charging a closed metallic canister with a gas under pressure comprising means for forming a gas filling opening in the canister, and dispensing means for sequentially injecting a high pressure gas through the gas filling opening to charge the canister, and depositing and fusing a fusible body in the gas filling opening, while continuing to inject gas into the canister and utilize the force of the gas to urge the dispensing means into sealing engagement with the canister being charged.

Abstract: An inflator having a base containing a diffuser and a canister having a chamber for receiving and holding gas under pressure are inserted in aligned, separated position in a pressure chamber. The pressure chamber is closed, sealed and filled with gas, thereby filling the canister. When the gas fill reaches the desired pressure, an integral top press is activated, thereby joining the base with the filled inflator canister. The base is then welded or crimped to the inflator chamber, thereby assembling a complete airbag inflating device.

Abstract: A sealing composition (134) includes about 85-95 wt. % glass frit, about 2-8 wt. % butyl carbitol acetate, about 2-8 wt. % alpha-terpineol, about 0.05-0.8 wt. % ester alcohol, and about 0.05-0.8 wt. % low molecular weight ethyl cellulose binder. A method for fabricating an apparatus (100) includes the steps of applying the sealing composition (134) to a portion (132) of the apparatus (100), removing the butyl carbitol acetate, the alpha-terpineol, and the ester alcohol, removing the binder, and heating the glass frit to a sealing temperature of the glass frit.

Abstract: A cast iron container for containing contaminated waste has a lid or cover sealed thereto by molten lead which is deposited in a channel or groove formed between the cover and the container.

Abstract: A method for producing a compressed fluid container is provided comprising charging a container with a fluid while simultaneously sealing the container. A double-walled compressed gas cylinder is also provided.

Abstract: The invention provides an improved heat seal structure for electronic devices. A heat seal structure comprises a base of synthetic resin formed integrally with an outwardly extending projection, with a gas vent running through the base and projection, the gas vent being sealed off by melting the projection, the improvement that the gas vent is configured generally in the shape of the letter V or Y bifurcating in the outward direction. In another embodiment, the projection has an annular extension disposed on the outward side of the base and adapted to be melted for a double seal effect. In another version of the structure, heat-sealing is performed with a sealing member or composition interposed in the gas vent. In still further embodiments, heat sealing is performed using a sealing member melting at a temperature below the melting point of the resin forming the base.

Abstract: A relay is sealed with a sealing compound when the relay housing is in a closed state, thus causing an air cushion to be formed in the inside, with an afterflow of sealing compound into the interior being prevented. Following gelling or curing of the sealing compound, a vent hole is pierced into the relay housing which, if required, may be closed following degassing of the interior space of the relay.

Abstract: Apparatus for and method of charging and hermetically sealing a small pressure vessel for confining therein a highly pressurized gas for a shelf life of several years. The vessel has a boss or neck with a very small opening extending longitudinally therethrough defining a fill connection which terminates in a small sharp edged cylindrical lip at its outer extremity into and around which a ductile metal is extruded under pressure for establishing a seal.

Abstract: Method of manufacturing a filled packaging container comprising the steps of forming a bag on a mandrel, connecting a seam provided in a formed bag, forming a hole on an upper side of the bag and inserting a valve into the hole to provide an air pressure release after filling the container with a material. Two opposite edges of the valve are formed with two flexible portions made of foil. A sealing fluid is applied in the channel to provide a fluid film to connect the foil portions.

Abstract: A hermetically sealed high pressure gas container comprising a high stren chamber for confining the gas and a check valve fitted on and soldered to a boss formed integral with the chamber. The check valve serves as a temporary seal and permits the chamber to be charged with gas under atmospheric conditions. After charging, the inlet port of the check valve is soldered closed to provide a hermetic seal.
