2results about "Pre-fabricated insulating pattern transfer" patented technology

An apparatus and method are disclosed for transferring patterns carried by a web of a deformable plastics material onto substrates. The apparatus comprises a nip defined between at least one nip roller and a backing support through which the substrates are passed simultaneously with the web and by means of which pressure is applied to effect transfer of the patterns from the web to the substrates. In the invention, a web heater and a web tensioner are arranged upstream of the nip, and a control unit is provided for controlling the web heater and the web tensioner in dependence upon data indicative of the lengths and widths of the patterns on the web prior to transfer, or of the patterns on the substrates after transfer, so as to ensure that, after transfer to the substrates, the patterns conform to a desired length and width.

An apparatus and method for transferring a pattern on a web of deformable plastic material onto a substrate is disclosed. The apparatus includes a pressure roller located between at least one pressure roller and a support through which the substrate and the web pass simultaneously and through which pressure is applied, thereby transferring the pattern from the web onto the substrate. In the present invention, the mesh heater and the mesh tensioner are arranged upstream of the pressure roller, and a control unit is provided for controlling the mesh heater and the mesh tensioner according to data indicative of the length and width of the pattern on the mesh before the pattern is transferred or the length and width of the pattern on the substrate after the pattern is transferred, therefore, after the pattern is transferred to the base material, the length and the width of the pattern meet the required requirements.
