20140162023 | Tube with Resilient Applicator and Scraper for Dispensing Texture Materials - A system for applying a coating to an untextured portion of a destination surface comprises a tube member defining a container opening, texture material within the tube member, a sponge member defining an applicator surface and a sponge opening. The texture material comprises a binder and visually perceivable discrete particles. The sponge member is secured to the tube member such that the texture material can flow out of the tube member through the sponge opening. The texture material is displaced out of the tube member and onto the applicator surface. The applicator surface of the sponge member is displaced substantially along a dispensing axis perpendicular to the applicator surface towards and away from the destination surface with the applicator surface substantially parallel to the destination surface to transfer the texture material to newly textured portion of the destination surface. | 06-12-2014 |

20150030810 | POROUS SUCTION SHEET AND REPLACEABLE SURFACE LAYER USED THEREIN - Provided is a multilayer porous suction sheet having an unprecedented structure to prevent contact between a suction object and a suction surface of a suction unit when the sheet is disposed on the suction surface. The porous suction sheet includes a base layer having air permeability and a surface layer disposed on the base layer. The surface layer is made of a porous body composed of resin fine particles that are bonded together, one principal surface of the surface layer opposite to the other principal surface facing the base layer has a surface roughness (Ra) of 1.0 μm or less, and the base layer and the surface layer are coupled together by an air-permeable adhesive layer disposed between the base layer and the surface layer. The base layer and/or the surface layer is made of, for example, ultrahigh molecular weight polyethylene (UHMWPE). | 01-29-2015 |
