Drywall Joint Compound Applicator For Seam And Patch Surfacing

US Patent:
8021505, Sep 20, 2011
Filed:
May 21, 2008
Appl. No.:
12/124618
Inventors:
James Lewis - Uwchland PA, US
Assignee:
The Wall Doctorx, LLC - Uwchland PA
International Classification:
B32B 43/00, E04F 13/02, E04F 13/07, B29C 73/02, B29C 73/10, B29C 73/14
US Classification:
156 71, 156 94, 428 63, 52514, 525145
Abstract:
A drywall patch is coated with a premeasured amount of joint compound in its wet state making it immediately available for application to a wall surface. The patch with compound is sealed in an airtight wrapper or between unsealed wrapper halves which are in turn sealed in a surrounding airtight package so that the joint compound stays moist and will not harden over time. The wrapper includes a peel-away adhesive dry patch. In use, the dry patch is first applied over a crack or hole to be repaired. The wrapper and compound are applied directly over the dry patch and, while the wrapper remains in place, pressure is applied to smooth the compound over the patch and removed after the compound has dried. The wrapper is preferably composed of microporous breathable plastic film.

Drywall Repair Kit

US Patent:
8381474, Feb 26, 2013
Filed:
Aug 5, 2010
Appl. No.:
12/851259
Inventors:
James Lewis - Uwchland PA, US
International Classification:
E02D 37/00
US Classification:
52514, 527461
Abstract:
A surface repair kit includes an air-permeable breathable membrane coated with a premeasured amount of joint compound in its wet state. The membrane is suspended in a semi-rigid flexible frame and an opposing cover sheet is affixed over the compound around the backside of the frame. This framed composition is encased in an airtight package to prevent the compound from hardening. Included in the packaging may be a wall patch with an adhesive surface that holds a peel-off covering. Sandpaper may also be included in the kits since some repairs may require a final light sanding. The outside of the packaging carries simple printed instructions for the user to carry out the steps of peel, press and roll with accompanying illustrations so that drywall repairs can be carried out even by an unskilled novice.
