Device for Dispensing Plastic Fasteners

Номер: US20120061416A1
Автор: William J. Cooper
Принадлежит: Avery Dennison Corp

A device for dispensing an individual plastic fastener from a supply of fastener stock includes a motor-driven head assembly adapted to receive the supply of fastener stock, sever an individual fastener from the supply and in turn eject the severed fastener. The head assembly includes a pair of needle block assemblies that retain corresponding hollow needles, each needle block assembly being shaped to define a feed channel that transitions a side rail for the fastener stock into axial alignment behind its corresponding needle. In addition, at least one needle block assembly includes a rearward shelf and a forward bowing plate. In use, the lowermost cross-links of the fastener stock fittingly align between the shelf and the bowing plate. In this manner, the lowermost cross-links are limited to distort uniformly upward within the single plane defined by the pair of feed channels, thereby optimizing feed reliability of the device.

An adhesive agent label includes an adhesive agent layer which is made of an adhesive agent and is formed on one surface of a support. A non-adhesive heat-reactive layer is positioned above the adhesive agent layer and has openings formed by heating at a predetermined temperature or higher. An intermediate layer is positioned between the heat-reactive layer and the adhesive agent layer. The intermediate layer and the heat-reactive layer are formed thinner than the adhesive agent layer. The intermediate layer facilitates the formation of the openings in the heat-reactive layer with good heat energy efficiency and allows the intermediate layer or adhesive agent layer to be exposed through the openings.

Method to aid and enhance the distribution of advertisements door to door

Номер: US20120090209A1
Автор: Roth K. Christopherson
Принадлежит: Individual

The method includes a fastener to aid and enhance the door to door distribution and functionality of advertisements. The advertisements, such as flyers, door hangers, booklets, brochures and the like, are used by advertisers to communicate information, services, and special offers to the public. The advertisement can be a sheet of flexible or rigid material, including a first planar surface, and a hole to accommodate the fastener. In another embodiment, this advertisement could initially be blank with the intention of the advertiser printing their own information on the advertisement. The fastener incorporated in the method, is used to securely attach the advertisement to a door knob, or other protrusion, during door to door distribution. The fastener design has a circular portion that may be stretched to fit around a door knob securely attaching the advertisement to the door. The fastener also has a T shaped extension which is inserted into the hole in the advertisement, attaching the fastener and advertisement snugly to each other. The circular portion of the fastener may be stretched without easily breaking and without placing any stress on the T shaped extension portion of the fastener or the advertisement. Another embodiment included in this method incorporates the fastener attaching the advertisement to a variety of door knobs including a lever and a push button handle. A further embodiment enhances this method even further by utilizing adhesive to increase the advertisers return on investment. The consumer may use the adhesive, after the advertisement is brought inside, to keep the advertisement in view while displayed on any object or surface, including but not limited to plastic, hard surfaces, glass, wood, or metal; such as refrigerator, cabinet, or computer, inside the residence or business.

Linerless labels are presented. A label includes a specific pattern or set of patterns of adhesive applied to one side of the label. The adhesive pattern(s) reduces contact between a cutter blade of a printer and the adhesive on the one side of the label. Moreover, the adhesive patterns reduce buildup of adhesive on the cutter blade and reduce buildup at specific locations on the cutter blade. That is, the adhesive patterns more evenly distribute adhesive buildup across the cutter blade. Consequently, the cutter blade can be used for a longer period of time before the cutter blade needs to be cleaned of the adhesive.

SELF-LAMINATING ROTATING CABLE MARKER LABEL WITH BREAKAWAY PORTION

Номер: US20150007929A1
Автор: Adams Michael Scott, Caveney Jack E., Morrison David Scott
Принадлежит: PANDUIT CORP.

A self-laminating rotating cable marker label is constructed of a transparent film having a first adhesive area, an adhesive-free smooth area, and a second adhesive area. A print-on area forms one side of the transparent film, the print-on area adapted to receive indicia identifying the cable about which the marker label is applied. A perforation extends across the transparent film providing a line of separation of the transparent film. When wrapped around a cable, the second adhesive area overlies the print-on area such that the cable identifying indicia is visible through the transparent second adhesive area. As the transparent film is wrapped around the cable, the first adhesive area adheres to the cable. The remainder of the transparent film is rotated, breaking the perforation, whereby the smooth area of the film in contact with the cable provides smooth rotation of the label around the cable. 1. A method of applying a self-laminating cable marker to a cable comprising:providing a self-laminating cable marker, the self-laminating cable marker having first, second, and third portions wherein the first portion has adhesive applied to an underside, the second portion has a label area and an adhesive-free undersurface, and the third portion is a laminate portion that is transparent and has adhesive applied to an underside, and further wherein a breakaway perforation is applied to the self-laminating cable marker at or adjacent to a junction between the first portion and the second portion;adhering the first portion of the self-laminating cable marker to the cable;wrapping the first portion of the self-laminating cable marker in a first direction a certain degree around the cable;{'b': '360', 'wrapping the second portion of the self-laminating cable marker around the cable in a first direction such that the second portion overlaps the first portion at least degrees past the breakaway perforation;'}wrapping part of the third portion of the self-laminating cable ...

A physical card (in some cases without any on-board source of power or computing capabilities) is configured to maintain access information for digital bearer assets. The physical card may include disposed thereon a single address operable to receive digital bearer assets in one or more transactions on a decentralized computing platform, like a blockchain-based decentralized computing platform. Other decentralized computing platforms utilize different address generation protocols, thus preventing use of a single address on those other platforms. A set of addresses is generated, each address corresponding to a given decentralized computing platform. Each address is based on a same underlying key-pair, and a primary address is selected from the set for a given card. The remaining addresses in the set are stored, without storage of the public key or private key, and returned in a response to a request for additional addresses of the currency card.
