PRESS-BONDED SHEET MANUFACTURING METHOD, PRESS-BONDED SHEET MANUFACTURING APPARATUS, AND IMAGE FORMING APPARATUS - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18620777 titled 'PRESS-BONDED SHEET MANUFACTURING METHOD, PRESS-BONDED SHEET MANUFACTURING APPARATUS, AND IMAGE FORMING APPARATUS
The patent application describes a method for manufacturing a press-bonded sheet where two sheet portions are bonded in a peelable state.
- An adhesive layer containing powder adhesive is formed on a sheet and heated to fix it.
- Areas on the sheet with fixed adhesive layers are opposed and press-bonded.
- The fracture strain of the powder adhesive is between 10% and 1000%.
Potential Applications: - Automotive industry for interior components - Electronics industry for device assembly - Packaging industry for secure seals
Problems Solved: - Facilitates easy assembly and disassembly of components - Provides strong bonding properties - Enhances manufacturing efficiency
Benefits: - Improved product quality - Cost-effective production process - Versatile applications in various industries
Commercial Applications: - Automotive interior panel assembly - Electronic device manufacturing - Packaging solutions for food and pharmaceutical industries
Questions about Press-Bonded Sheet Technology: 1. How does the fracture strain of the powder adhesive impact the bonding strength?
- The fracture strain affects the flexibility and durability of the bond.
2. What are the key differences between traditional bonding methods and press-bonding with powder adhesive?
- Traditional methods may require additional curing time or heat, while press-bonding with powder adhesive offers a quicker and more efficient process.
Original Abstract Submitted
A press-bonded sheet in which two sheet portions are press-bonded in a peelable state is manufactured by a method including steps of: forming an adhesive layer containing powder adhesive on a sheet; heating the adhesive layer to fix it to the sheet; opposing an area on the sheet where the adhesive layer is fixed and an area on the same sheet or on a different sheet where another adhesive layer is formed and fixed; and press-bonding the opposed areas. The fracture strain of a main constituent material of the powder adhesive is 10% or more and less than 1000%.
