METHOD FOR MANUFACTURING FLOW PATH MEMBER - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18456870 titled 'METHOD FOR MANUFACTURING FLOW PATH MEMBER

Simplified Explanation

- A method for manufacturing a flow path member involves using a flexible member to suppress vibrations of liquid in a flow path. - The flexible member is brought into contact with a first substrate with a recessed portion using an adhesive agent to cover the recessed portion. - The adhesive agent is cured while at least an area of the flexible member covering the recessed portion is supported by a support member. - A second substrate, forming the flow path facing the flexible member, is bonded to the first substrate. - The support member is removed from the flexible member after curing and before bonding.

Potential Applications

- This technology can be applied in the manufacturing of flow path members for various fluid systems, such as in medical devices, automotive components, and industrial machinery.

Problems Solved

- Helps in reducing vibrations of liquid in a flow path, which can improve the efficiency and accuracy of fluid systems. - Provides a method for securely bonding flexible members to substrates with recessed portions.

Benefits

- Improved performance and stability of flow path systems. - Enhanced durability and longevity of flow path members. - Simplified manufacturing process for flow path components.


Original Abstract Submitted

A method for manufacturing a flow path member includes bringing a flexible member into contact with a first substrate including a recessed portion via an adhesive agent so as to cover the recessed portion, wherein the flexible member is configured to suppress vibrations of a liquid in a flow path, curing the adhesive agent in a state where at least an area of the flexible member covering the recessed portion is supported by a support member, bonding a second substrate to a side of the first substrate with which the flexible member is brought into contact, wherein the second substrate is configured to form the flow path facing the flexible member, and removing the support member from the flexible member in a period after the curing and before the bonding.
