Process For Shading During The Vapor Phase Dyeing Of Carpet

US Patent:
4231743, Nov 4, 1980
Filed:
Apr 16, 1979
Appl. No.:
6/030450
Inventors:
Mervin R. Buckwalter - Lancaster PA
Walter T. Bulson - Lancaster PA
Leonard N. Ray - Lancaster PA
Assignee:
Armstrong Cork Company - Lancaster PA
International Classification:
D06P 512
US Classification:
8471
Abstract:
A process is disclosed for the making of a decorative carpet through the use of sublimable dyes. A shading effect is secured through the use of air flow control sheets that affect the flow of air through a transfer sheet and a carpet product adjacent thereto. By lessening air flow, the intensity of dye being transferred is also lessened so that shades of a certain color can be secured.

Product And Method Of Printing Carpet With A Transfer Paper- Ii

US Patent:
4007003, Feb 8, 1977
Filed:
Sep 12, 1975
Appl. No.:
5/612773
Inventors:
Walter T. Bulson - Lancaster PA
George R. Hartranft - Lancaster PA
Leonard N. Ray - Lancaster PA
Assignee:
Armstrong Cork Company - Lancaster PA
International Classification:
D06P 520
US Classification:
8 25A
Abstract:
A pattern is placed on a porous transfer sheet by the use of sublimable dyes. Carpet face yarns are tufted into a backing material. The transfer sheet is placed adjacent the back of the carpet on the side of the carpet opposite from the carpet face yarns. Heated air causes the sublimable dye to move from the transfer sheet, through the carpet backing to the face yarns of the carpet to provide the dye pattern on the face yarns.

Process For Shading During The Vapor Phase Dyeing Of Carpet

US Patent:
4181497, Jan 1, 1980
Filed:
Jun 10, 1976
Appl. No.:
5/694763
Inventors:
Mervin R. Buckwalter - Lancaster PA
Walter T. Bulson - Lancaster PA
Leonard N. Ray - Lancaster PA
Assignee:
Armstrong Cork Company - Lancaster PA
International Classification:
D06P 520, D06P 700
US Classification:
8 25A
Abstract:
A process is disclosed for the making of a decorative carpet through the use of sublimable dyes. A shading effect is secured through the use of air flow control sheets that affect the flow of air through a transfer sheet and a carpet product adjacent thereto.

Method Of No-Contact Printing Of Carpet With A Transfer Sheet

US Patent:
4111646, Sep 5, 1978
Filed:
Jan 24, 1977
Appl. No.:
5/761604
Inventors:
Mervin R. Buckwalter - Lancaster PA
Walter T. Bulson - Lancaster PA
Larry W. Leininger - Akron PA
Thomas Posipanko - Lancaster PA
Leonard N. Ray - Lancaster PA
Assignee:
Armstrong Cork Company - Lancaster PA
International Classification:
D06P 520
US Classification:
8 25A
Abstract:
A transfer sheet is printed with inks containing sublimable dyes. A carpet having face fibers and a backing is prepared. The inked surface of the transfer sheet and the carpet are positioned adjacent the openings on opposite sides of a honeycomb structure. Heated air is applied to the transfer sheet to sublime the dyes in the ink and to transfer the sublimed dyes from the carrier, through the passageways of the honeycomb structure, to the carpet. The fibers of the carpet are thereby dyed.

Process For Producing Metal Halide-Amide Reaction Product

US Patent:
4115423, Sep 19, 1978
Filed:
Sep 14, 1976
Appl. No.:
5/723266
Inventors:
Walter T. Bulson - Lancaster PA
Peter A. Christie - Lancaster PA
James R. Jones - Lancaster PA
Assignee:
Armstrong Cork Company - Lancaster PA
International Classification:
C07F 728
US Classification:
2604295
Abstract:
A process for the preparation of a metal halide-amide reaction product, useful in the preparation of metal-modified amide-aldehyde polymers, which comprises (1) reacting in a water-immiscible inert liquid medium a metal halide with at least one amide having at least two replaceable hydrogens to obtain a reaction product therebetween; (2) hydrolyzing the reaction product obtained in step (1) above with water to form an aqueous solution of the reaction product; (3) partially neutralizing the aqueous solution of the reaction product obtained in step (2) with a bicarbonate, and (4) recovering the metal halide-amide reaction product obtained.

Transfer Sheet

US Patent:
4096310, Jun 20, 1978
Filed:
May 2, 1977
Appl. No.:
5/792896
Inventors:
Mervin R. Buckwalter - Lancaster PA
Walter T. Bulson - Lancaster PA
Assignee:
Armstrong Cork Company - Lancaster PA
International Classification:
B32B 700
US Classification:
428288
Abstract:
The invention is directed to a transfer sheet for use with sublimable dye. It is used in a dry transfer printing operation. An ideal transfer sheet must have certain porosity, strength, and other structural characteristics to permit its use in a manufacturing operation wherein a continuous printing operation is carried out.
