141 METHOD FOR PRODUCING A LIGHTWEIGHT COMPONENT, AND SUPPORT ELEMENT US13126005 2009-10-27 US20110272078A1 2011-11-10 Laurent Torriani; Mario Lehmann; Marcel Aeschlimann
The lightweight component is equipped with two cover layers, which are made of a wood material, for example, and a filling disposed in between said layers after cutting everything to size, having an edge support comprising thermoplastic material. This is done in that the edge support is anchored both in the first cover layer and in the second cover layer starting from the narrow side, wherein the anchoring is achieved in that the edge support is brought into contact with the respective cover layer and mechanical vibrations are coupled into the edge support by a sonotrode engaging from the narrow side, wherein the edge support at the same time is pressed against the cover layer such that in the region of a transition between the thermoplastic material and the wood material of the cover layer part of the thermoplastic material is liquefied and pushed into the cover layer material, thereby producing a positively engaged anchoring after hardening.

146 Method and apparatus for controlling and adjusting the intensity profile of a laser beam employed in a laser welder for welding polymeric and metallic components US10883868 2004-07-02 US07820936B2 2010-10-26 Jan Weber; Thomas J. Holman
A method and apparatus is provided for forming a fusion bond between two materials such as two components of a catheter. The method begins by forming a bond site by positioning a portion of a first body with respect to a portion of a second body so that a fusion bond site is formed. A laser beam is generated that has an intensity profile across its width. The laser beam is directed onto at least a portion of the first and second bodies within the bond site so that a fusion zone having an increased temperature is formed. After the laser beam is generated, the intensity profile of the laser beam that is directed onto the bond site is controllably adjusted by an optical element such as a dynamically-adjustable beam shaping element.
147 Adhesive bonding of vehicle external panels to reduce bond-line read-out US11848303 2007-08-31 US07811405B2 2010-10-12 Soumendra K. Basu; Jessica A. Schroeder; Hamid G. Kia
The bonding of polymeric panels with thermosetting adhesive compositions may lead to an unsightly image of the adhesive bond line on an external surface of the joined articles. This bond-line read-out is reduced or eliminated using an adhesive material with filler particles characterized by nanometer size clay platelets when the content of the filler particles does not exceed about five percent by volume of the uncured adhesive. Selective placement of the adhesive extending to the edges of the bonding surfaces of the polymeric members also reduces bond-line read-out.
148 CONNECTING FIBER-REINFORCED MATERIAL TO AN NJECTION-MOULDED MATERIAL US12814599 2010-06-14 US20100244316A1 2010-09-30 Ulrich DAJEK
A process for the bonding of a fiber-reinforced material to an injection-molding material and an article produced by the process. The process improves the bond between a fiber-reinforced starting material and a material applied by injection. A further plastics material is inserted under pressure into a fiber-reinforced plastics material. This results in interlock bonding between the further plastics material and the fibers of the fiber-reinforced plastics material. This type of bonding is substantially more stable than known bonding.

A lid for closing containers includes an at least two-layered composite assembly. A layer facing the container seals against a container edge and forms an opening by layer separation, for removing contents. The layers have a continuous construction without weakening lines. The layer facing the container is made mainly of a plastic having an intrinsic tearing resistance being lower in the region of the opening than its adhesion to the layer facing away from the container in a remaining region and an adhesion to the container edge being greater at least in the region of an opening aid than to the other layer. The plastic adheres so strongly to the outer layer in the region of the opening that a region corresponding to the opening is torn out upon opening and a remaining layer of the lid facing the container continues to adhere to the container edge by sealing action.

153 Display device, multi-screen display device, and display device manufacturing method US11283900 2005-11-22 US07570422B2 2009-08-04 Kosaku Murakami; Sadakazu Tomita; Hidekazu Kodera
In an image-displaying screen that is formed of a plurality of plates having lens structure, the reliability of the fixing between the plurality of plates is enhanced. A screen that displays an image includes a lenticular lens plate and a Fresnel lens plate that is fixed to the lenticular lens plate by thermal welding. Because the lenticular lens plate and the Fresnel lens plate are thus fixed together by thermal welding, the fixing strength between the lenticular lens plate and the Fresnel lens plate is not deteriorated by repeated distortion of the welded portion, as would be caused by temperature variations etc. when a welding agent is used to fix them. This enhances the reliability of the fixing between the lens plates.

159 Composite fibre component with thermoplastic stiffening elements US12218985 2008-07-17 US20090041985A1 2009-02-12 Klaus Von Varendorff; Martin Staub; Arne Mashoff
The invention relates to a method for producing a composite component reinforced by stiffening elements.Composite component is produced by the inside gluing of a monolithic component to a multiplicity of stiffening elements by means of an adhesive suitable for this particular application. Stiffening elements are formed with a fibre reinforced, amorphous thermoplastic material. Monolithic component of composite component consists of a fibre reinforced duroplastic material—for example a composite epoxy matrix—in which are embedded, for reinforcement, carbon fibres, basalt fibres, natural fibres, ceramic fibres, aramide® fibres, kevlar® fibres or any combination thereof.Monolithic component is glued to thermoplastic stiffening elements by an adhesive under the influence of pressure and temperature. Here a tolerance compensation is carried out essentially by stiffening elements, if necessary being plastically deformed, so that high dimensional stability is achieved. Composite components, which can be subject to high mechanical loads, are therefore provided, in particular, as spare or replacement parts for outer lining parts on aircraft.The invention also relates to a composite component produced by means of a method according to the invention.
