| 20110120369 | SHIELDING TOOL - A shielding tool protects a non-sprayed surface of a workpiece including a coating surface and defining a groove in the coating surface, with a bottom surface of the groove is the non-sprayed surface of the workpiece. The shielding tool includes a first shield member positioned in the groove of the workpiece, and a second shield member positioned on the first shield member. The first shield member includes an abutting surface. The second shield member includes a resisting surface abutting the abutting surface of the first shield member. The abutting surface and the resisting surface are substantially the same shape and size as the bottom surface of the groove. A gap is formed between the abutting surface and the resisting surface. | 05-26-2011 |
| 20090133621 | PAINT MASKING FOR CORNERS - A paint mask particularly adapted for masking corner areas of a demarcation zone to facilitate painting of an area of a workpiece disposed on the other side of the demarcation zone is formed of a thin, flexible sheet having opposite faces. The paint mask includes a first leg and a second leg that are generally rectangular in shape, and the legs intersect to form a right angle adapted for masking a corner and adjacent area. The bottom side of the paint mask which contacts the surface to be masked includes an adhesive for adhering the mask to the workpiece. The top side has release means for releasing stacked paint masks from each other. | 05-28-2009 |
| 20110179997 | PROTECTIVE SHEET AND USE THEREOF - A protective sheet 10 is provided which exhibits excellent properties as a protective sheet and a satisfactory handleability. The protective sheet 10 is formed of a substrate 1 which is a plastic film and a pressure-sensitive adhesive layer 2 which is provided on one side of the substrate, and satisfies all of the following properties: (A) the total flexural rigidity D | 07-28-2011 |
| 20120266813 | Mask Frame Assembly for Thin Film Deposition - A mask frame assembly for depositing a deposition material on a deposition substrate comprises a mask frame including an opening and frames surrounding the opening, and a mask coupled on the mask frame. A deformation prevention unit is formed on at least one region of the mask. Since the deformation prevention unit is formed on a peripheral portion of a deposition pattern in the mask, deformation of the mask in a vertical direction may be reduced. Accordingly, defective attaching of the mask to the substrate may be reduced. | 10-25-2012 |
