An inflatable balloon cuff may be adapted to seal a patient's trachea when associated with an endotracheal tube. These cuffs may include indicia that facilitate attachment of the cuff relative to the tube to reduce manufacturing variability for such characteristics as rotational and length alignment. Such indicia may include protrusions that are formed in the wall of the cuff collars or may include visual indicators, e.g., calorimetric or shape-wise, indicators. Cuffs with improved attachment relative to the tube may have increased sealing performance.
82 Method for Manufacturing Inflatable Footwear or Bladders for Use in Inflatable Articles US12624232 2009-11-23 US20100126661A1 2010-05-27 Frank Millette; Brian Christensen; Paul M. Davis; Paul E. Litchfield
The present invention is a method for manufacturing inflatable articles, or bladders for inflatable articles, that is time-efficient, simple, inexpensive and permits the uninterrupted manufacture of numerous and even customized article or bladder configurations and sizes, without expensive configuration-specific, metal tooling. The method includes the steps of applying a barrier material to a side of a first film, providing a second film with the first film so that the barrier material is disposed between the first and second films, adhering the first film to the second film so that the films are sealed together in areas except where the barrier material has been applied to form at least one inflatable compartment and sealed peripheral edge, and cutting along the sealed peripheral edge to form an inflatable article or bladder for use in an article of manufacture. The barrier material may be a paint, ink, paper or surface treatment that effectively prevents the first film from adhering to the second. The inflatable article or bladder of the present invention may be used as or in athletic equipment, for example, including footwear.

87 IMPACT AND/OR VIBRATION ABSORBENT MATERIAL AND PROTECTIVE ARTICLES MAKING USE THEREOF US11277001 2006-03-20 US20060206977A1 2006-09-21 Gary Hammons; Roger Kramer; Charles Marks; Kevin Porter; Robert Bogard; Traci Skahill; Mark Smith
An impact and/or vibration absorbent material and protective articles making use of said material. An impact and/or vibration absorbent material of the present invention has at least two material layers. The individual layers of the impact and/or vibration absorbent material may be of the same material, or of different materials. Each material layer preferably contains a number of holes. The holes in one layer are located and arranged to be offset from the holes in an adjacent layer. The combination of inherent material properties and the inclusion and arrangement of holes renders such a material highly impact and/or vibration absorbent. Through use of a protective article of the present invention, the effects of impact and/or vibration forces on a user of the protective article can be minimized.

90 Automatic welding machine US10455587 2003-06-03 US06866077B2 2005-03-15 Walter Zurmühle; Bruno von Wyl
An automatic welding machine for planar plastic materials, such as sealing sheets, tarpaulins or films, the chassis, in the welding position, in addition to being carried by the driving unit and the pressure device, also being carried by a rigid guide wheel, preferably in the front region of the chassis. With respect to a pressure roller running essentially on the welded overlap region, the guide wheel is arranged in such a way that, during the welding, it runs along the bottom plastic material parallel to the edge of the top plastic material. In addition, the guide wheel has a narrow running surface. During the welding, the guide wheel runs along the edge of the overlapping plastic material and the pressure roller runs essentially on the weld region. Due to this configuration, the automatic welding machine can follow the edge in such a way as to keep to the track, so that guidance by the operator or frequent corrections of the welding direction are not necessary. This leads to an increased weld quality and also to a higher welding speed. There is less interference from the background or due to the welding device swinging in laterally.

A method for forming the butt seam (33, 233, 354) is described.
96 STICHLESS SEAM CONSTRUCTION OF ELASTOMERIC FABRIC US09166427 1998-10-05 US20020007896A1 2002-01-24 RICHARD HUBER
A method is provided for joining two pieces of elastomeric fabric together without the need for sewing or stitching the seam. This is accomplished by cutting a first piece of elastomeric fabric to form a first edge having a predetermined first geometric pattern. Similarly, a second piece of elastomeric fabric is cut to form a second edge having a predetermined second geometric pattern which corresponds with the first geometric pattern. The lateral surfaces of the geometrically patterned first and second edges then have a bonding agent applied prior to mating the patterned edges to one another to create an intersecting seam between the first and second pieces of the elastomeric fabric. The intersecting seam is immobilized to allow the bonding agent to set. Tape may be placed on one or both sides of the seam for additional strengthening.
97 Method of manufacturing a bellowed seal US106559 1998-06-29 US6010657A 2000-01-04 Neal E. Wydra; David W. Geick, Jr.
An improved seal or boot for inhibiting contaminants from interfering with operation of a mechanism having two flexibly interconnected components which axially extend from opposite ends of the seal. The seal is formed as a one-piece hollow and elongated body defining an enclosed cavity wherein the pivotal connection of the mechanism is arranged and having first and second annular mounting ends. The first and second annular mounting ends are configured to allow the components of the mechanism protected by the seal to axially extend therefrom. To permit flexural movement of the seal and the interconnected components of the mechanism protected by the seal, a plurality of bellow-like configurations are disposed along a major length of the seal between the first and second mounting ends. Each bellow-like configuration on the seal has predetermined root and crest diameters with wall sections of a predetermined material thickness extending therebetween. To facilitate economic manufacture of the seal, the elongated body is formed from a cost efficient non-blow mold grade thermoplastic polyester elastomer. Forming the seal from a non-blow mold graded thermoplastic polyester elastomer furthermore enhances the durability and life of the seal.
