| 20110020570 | MATERIALS AND PROCESSES FOR FABRICATING CONTAINERS AND CONTAINERS FORMED THEREWITH - A sheet material and construction method suitable for manufacturing boxes and other types of containment devices, and containers formed with such materials and methods. According to one aspect, the sheet material includes a kraft paper, a reflective film material laminated to a first surface of the kraft paper, a heat-activated first adhesive bonding the reflective film material to the kraft paper, a core material laminated to a second surface of the kraft paper opposite the first surface thereof, and a heat-activated second adhesive bonding the kraft paper to the core material. According to an additional aspect, a sheet material is configured to have certain geometric features that promote its conversion into a container, especially if constructed of the sheet material described above. | 01-27-2011 |
| 20090133347 | DUCT INSULATION MATERIAL AND METHOD OF USING - A flexible insulation material and method for using such an insulation material with an HVAC duct to provide noise suppression and thermal protection. The insulation material includes a lofted substrate and a facer sheet laminated thereto. The substrate contains nonwoven lofted fibers and the insulation material is attached to the duct such that a first surface of the substrate faces a wall surface of the duct and the facer sheet is on the opposite surface of the substrate. The facer sheet includes a polymeric film bonded to the substrate, a metallization layer on the polymeric film, and optionally a protective coating on the metallization layer. The insulation material can be used as an external duct wrap or an internal duct liner. In the former application, the insulation material preferably includes a second facer sheet on the first surface of the substrate. | 05-28-2009 |
| 20080240904 | Method of Pumping Gaseous Matter via a Supersonic Centrifugal Pump - A method of pumping gaseous matter comprises a step of providing a pump rotor, intake port, exhaust port, and gas passageway. The gas passageway operatively connects the intake port to the exhaust port. The exhaust port is radially farther from the rotor's center axis than is the intake port. The method also includes a step of providing a stator and a step of rotationally driving the pump rotor relative to the stator in a manner causing gaseous matter to enter the gas passageway of the pump rotor via the intake port, to gain energy, and to move radially away from the center axis and out of the exhaust port. The gaseous matter has a supersonic velocity relative to the stator upon exiting the exhaust port. The method can be used to evacuate or compress gaseous matter. | 10-02-2008 |
