IMAGE FORMING APPARATUS - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240241463 titled 'IMAGE FORMING APPARATUS
Simplified Explanation: The patent application describes a sheet bonding apparatus that includes various components for bonding sheets together using a powdery adhesive. The apparatus has a folding portion, a fixing portion, and a bonding portion with heating and non-heating members. The application of the adhesive is controlled to ensure proper bonding.
- Heating and non-heating members nip the sheet to bond it.
- Different adhesive application amounts in different regions of the sheet.
- Components like applying, fixing, folding, and bonding portions work together for effective bonding.
Key Features and Innovation:
- Controlled application of powdery adhesive on sheets.
- Heating and non-heating members for bonding.
- Different adhesive amounts in different regions for optimal bonding.
Potential Applications: The technology can be used in industries where sheet bonding is required, such as packaging, printing, and manufacturing.
Problems Solved: The technology addresses issues related to inconsistent bonding due to uneven adhesive application on sheets.
Benefits:
- Improved bonding quality.
- Enhanced efficiency in sheet bonding processes.
- Cost-effective solution for adhesive application.
Commercial Applications: The technology can be utilized in industries like packaging, printing, and manufacturing for efficient sheet bonding processes, leading to cost savings and improved product quality.
Prior Art: Readers can explore prior patents related to sheet bonding apparatus and adhesive application techniques in the packaging and manufacturing industries.
Frequently Updated Research: Stay updated on advancements in adhesive technologies and sheet bonding methods to enhance the efficiency and effectiveness of the bonding process.
Questions about Sheet Bonding Technology: 1. How does the controlled application of adhesive in different regions of the sheet improve bonding quality? 2. What are the potential cost savings for industries using this sheet bonding technology?
Original Abstract Submitted
a sheet bonding apparatus includes an applying portion, a fixing portion, a folding portion, and a bonding portion including a heating member and a non-heating member which oppose to each other and which are for bonding the sheet by nipping the sheet therebetween. two regions opposing to each other when the folding portion folds a sheet are a first region and a second region. in a case that when the bonding portion bonds the folded sheet, the first region is positioned on a heating member side and the second region is positioned on a non-heating member side, the applying portion applies the powdery adhesive so that an application amount of the powdery adhesive on the sheet is smaller in the first region than in the second region.
