156730200 | Rod, strand, or filament | 11 |
20100071833 | System And Method Of Making Tapered Looped Suture - A system for forming a looped suture having a tapered cut is provided. The system includes a base for selectively retaining a portion of thread, a clamping device for receiving a first end of the thread, a tensioning device for receiving a second end of the thread, a welding assembly configured to join a first and second section of the thread to form a loop, and a cutting assembly configured to form a tapered end on the first section of the thread. | 03-25-2010 |
20100116411 | CONTINUAL MANUFACTURING PROCESS FOR SWABS - A continual manufacturing process includes steps of preparing a combined band consisting of two-layers of material sheets and plural swab sticks having their heads sandwiched orderly between the two layers of material sheets, a step of placing the combined sheet together with the sticks and moved on the table by a conveying roller to pass between a roller-type knife mold and a supersonic vibrating head to let the roller-type knife mold press a part of the two layers at the head of each stick, and a step of cutting the part of the material sheets at the head of each stick by means of punch knives of the roller-type knife mold and of being heated by the roller-type knife mold to soften and to be adhered to the head of each stick to make finished swabs. | 05-13-2010 |
20100276062 | System And Method For Making Tapered Looped Suture - A system for forming a looped suture is provided. The system includes a suture supply assembly configured for supplying thread, a flipper gripping assembly configured for forming a loop in the thread, a carriage assembly configured for advancing the thread through the forming process, and a welding assembly configured for securing the loop in the thread. | 11-04-2010 |
20110067797 | Apparatus for Producing Elastomeric Nonwoven Laminates - An apparatus for producing an elastomeric nonwoven laminate including a plurality of elastomeric strands joined to a nonwoven web in a controlled distribution is provided. The apparatus includes an extruder for extruding a plurality of elastomeric strands onto a cooled surface of a rotating drum, which transports the strands in parallel alignment to a nip formed between two rollers rotating about parallel axis. The drum transfers the plurality of strands to the nip in a controlled distribution where it is bonded with the nonwoven. The apparatus also includes elements which automate the apparatus for creating the elastomeric nonwoven laminate. | 03-24-2011 |
20120111476 | ULTRASONIC SEALING JAW AND METHOD FOR ULTRASONIC SEALING - An ultrasonic sealing jaw ( | 05-10-2012 |
20140034214 | BUILD MATERIAL SWITCHING - A three-dimensional printer uses transitional lengths of build material to facilitate changes from one color to another during a fabrication process, and more generally to achieve multi-color objects corresponding to color patterns on the surface of a three-dimensional model. The transitional lengths of build material may be positioned inside a fabricated object, such as for infill, or outside the fabricated object where undesirable aesthetic properties of the transitional lengths will not impact the desired distribution of colors on the surface of the fabricated object. | 02-06-2014 |
20140230995 | DEVICE AND METHOD FOR THE AMELIORATION OF RECESSES - The invention relates to a device ( | 08-21-2014 |
20140367021 | METHOD FOR PRODUCING A CORD-SHAPED COMPOSITE MATERIAL AND SYSTEM - The invention relates to a method and to a pultrusion system ( | 12-18-2014 |
20150007924 | METHOD FOR PRODUCTION OF FIBRE FILL - A method for producing fibre fill for use as filling material in clothing, sleeping bags, pillows and duvets from a fibre rope ( | 01-08-2015 |
20160106411 | Suture Having a Restraining Element at an End and Method and Use Thereof - Polymeric fibers, and apparatuses for and methods of processing such fibers to be useful as sutures, where at least one end of a fiber includes a termination feature. The termination feature is formed through the application of energy to a coiled region of the fiber. | 04-21-2016 |
20160146028 | HIGH STRENGTH JOINTS IN CERAMIC MATRIX COMPOSITE PREFORMS - A joint between a first preform component and a second preform component that are constructed for ultimate use in a gas turbine engine is disclosed. A plurality of extended fibers may be integral with the first preform component and be at least partially enveloped by the second preform component. A method for making the component is also disclosed. In one embodiment the method provides a first preform component having extended fibers integral therewith, and supplying a second preform component. The method further includes inserting the extended fibers at least partially into the second preform component body. | 05-26-2016 |
