An adjustable distributor apparatus () for dispensing a foam forming mixture comprising a main body () and adjustment plate, the main body featuring at least one inlet, one channel, and one outlet, the inlet, channel and outlet in fluid connection such that a fluid may pass through the inlet into the channel and exit from the channel through the outlet, and the outlet being coupled with at least one adjustment plate (), the adjustment plate featuring at least a first face, a second face opposing the first face, and an outlet hole, enabling a seal between either the outlet of the main body or the second face of a second adjustment plate, and the outlet hole extending from the first face to the second face by way of a fluid connection through the adjustment plate.

Foaming mixture dispensing apparatus and method

A flexible film fluid-dispensing device including (A) at least one flexible film liner member having a flexibility property of from 3.6e-10 Nm to 2 Nm; (B) a rigid frame member for receiving the flexible film liner member and for removably holding the flexible film liner member in place during the flow of fluid through the flexible fluid-dispensing device; and (C) a connection means for connecting the flexible film fluid-dispensing device to the outlet feed stream of a fluid production process line; a process of manufacturing the above flexible film fluid-dispensing device; and a process for dispensing a fluid using the above flexible film fluid-dispensing device.

Flexible film fluid-dispensing device

Laminated panels are made in a process whereby a starting foam formulation is processed through a mixhead, passed through a branched distribution system and dispensed through multiple outlets of the distribution system to produce a foam layer on a bottom facing layer. The foam layer is monitored for the presence of surface bubbles. When surface bubbles are observed, the backpressure in the mixhead is increased to reduce or eliminate the surface bubbles. An apparatus for performing the process includes an adjustment means at or upstream of a first branch point in the distribution system to increase or decrease the backpressure in the mixhead.

Apparatus and method for applying a foaming reaction mixture onto a laminator

A multilayer foam panel member including: (a) at least one top sheet substrate; (b) at least one bottom sheet substrate; and (c) a middle substrate of foam material disposed inbetween, and integral with, the top and bottom sheet substrates; wherein the foam material is produced by dispensing a reactive foam-forming fluid mixture onto a moving or stationary bottom sheet substrate of a foam manufacturing line; and wherein the foam manufacturing line includes a flexible film fluid dispensing device for dispensing the reactive foam-forming fluid mixture onto the moving or stationary bottom sheet substrate to form a multilayer foam panel member; wherein the middle substrate of foam material of the panel member has improved thermal and mechanical properties; and a process for manufacturing the above multilayer foam panel member.
