| 20090020222 | ADHESION DEVICE FOR APPLYING AND RELEASING BIOMIMETIC MICROSTRUCTURE ADHESIVE FROM A CONTACT SURFACE - An adhesion device is configured as a BMA “applicator” made up of three parts: an anchor portion; a peeler layer; and a “biomimetic microstructure adhesive” (BMA) portion. The anchor portion has one side affixed to a part of an object to be releasably adhered to a surface. The peeler layer has an inwardly facing side thereof affixed to the other side of the anchor portion. The BMA portion is affixed to an outward side of the peeler layer with its setae facing outwardly towards the surface to be adhered to. The anchor portion is affixed to the peeler layer at a position offset from the position at which the BMA portion is affixed, so that the object may be releasably detached from adhesion with the surface by pulling away at an angle to the surface and pulling on only an initial set of setae of the BMA portion proximate to the offset position of the anchor portion. | 01-22-2009 |
| 20100043814 | SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR APPLYING AND REMOVING COSMETIC HAIR USING BIOMIMETIC MICROSTRUCTURE ADHESIVE LAYER - A cosmetic hair assembly has a shaped piece of wig netting or mesh holding a plurality of cosmetic hairs attached to a correspondingly shaped layer of biomimetic microstructure adhesive (BMA) with tiny synthetic seta for adhesion to human skin. The wig netting is dimensioned slightly larger than the BMA layer to leave a slight overhanging part to facilitate removal from the skin by peeling back the overhanging part. A comb with peeler in the form of hooked portions can be used to peel back the wig netting. In another embodiment, an individual cosmetic hair assembly has a hair shaft attached to a substrate portion attached to a BMA layer, wherein the substrate's edges provide engagement surfaces to facilitate removal by peeling back the BMA layer. An applicator in the form of a thin water-soluble transfer sheet can hold a number of cosmetic hair assemblies until they are ready to be applied. | 02-25-2010 |
