Latest Patents

Mineyama holds a patent for a "Method and apparatus for coating viscous material." This invention involves a pair of horizontally disposed nozzles positioned above a horizontally disposed seal edge surface. The nozzles are designed to coat a frit slurry in a closed pattern on the surface. They move in opposite directions from a mutually blocking position until they come into sealing abutment at a second point above the surface. During this movement, a frit slurry is discharged at a constant rate, creating a uniform stripe on the seal edge surface. Just before the nozzles meet at the end of the coating operation, the flow from one nozzle is terminated. This allows the slurry from the second nozzle to create a tapered overlay without forming a bump or extra width at the joint. A rectangular gear, conforming to the shape of the seal edge surface, drives the nozzles at a substantially linear speed along the surface.
