Abstract:
A centerflow dispenser for dispensing saturated wipers is disclosed which includes a dispensing nozzle (16) affixed to the container (10) of wet wipes. The nozzle (16) has included therewith a rotatable dispensing disc (52) through which the rolled web is dispensed. The rotatable disc (52) has a dispensing orifice (54) therethrough which preferably includes a node (62) and a plurality of contiguous appendages (64) such that the disc (52) will rotate to the path of least resistance as the saturated wipers are drawn through the dispensing orifice (54) regardless of the direction of extraction of the web through the orifice. One or more drain holes (66) are preferably provided through the dispensing disc (52) to allow liquid squeezed from the wiper as it is drawn through the dispensing orifice (54) to pass back into the container (10). The nozzle (16) includes a funnelled or frusto-conical section (34) which collects any liquid squeezed or which may drip from the wiper as it is extracted from the container to thereby direct such liquid toward the drain holes (66) in dispensing disc (52). A cap (8) is preferably provided which sealingly engages the nozzle (66) to limit vapour emissions from the container (10) when the cap (18) is in the closed position.

Abstract:
Disclosed is a continuous process for replicating interference patterns in radiation curable coating compositions or materials. A radiation curable composition is brought into contact with interference patterns borne on the surface of a revolving drum (22). The curable composition which may be supported and coated onto a film (8) by coating roll (10) or insupported and coated directly into revolving drum (22) by a coating roll (13) is irradiated via irradiation means (20) to cure it at least sufficiently so that it can be stripped from the replicating surface of the revolving drum.
Abstract:
Production of novel pulp, primarily wood pulp, from chips using pre-treatment with stabilizers and alkaline peroxide prior to mechanical fiberization (refining) to increase the brightness of the resulting fibers and the papermaking strength achievable with the fibers. The novel aspect of the pre-treatment prior to refining is that it results in the ''in situ'' formation within the chips of a stabilizing flock or sol.
Abstract:
There is disclosed a wet wipe comprising a porous sheet impregnated with an aqueous lotion and, concentrated near the surface of the sheet, a hydrophobic ingredient entrapped in polymeric beads. The hydrophobic ingredient is usually a functional ingredient which is useful for treating the human skin or environmental surfaces. The hydrophobic ingredient is preferably released in a controlled way. There are also disclosed methods of making said wet wipe.
Abstract:
The problem with single cartridge dispensers is that when a maintenance person looks at the liquid level of the cartridge, the fluid may be only slightly above the level indi cator window with the result that the cartridge would be completely used up before the maintenance person returns to service the dispenser. Thus, it would be desirable to have two cartridges so that the user can completely exhaust one cartridge and then begin dispensing from the second car tridge. The device (10) employs two cartridges (11a,11b) each having a compressable dispensing pump (25a, 25b). A movable compression member (52) is slidable to a first posi tion adjacent the pump (25b) of a first cartridge (11b) or to a second position adjacent the pump (25a) of the second car tridge (11a) so that fluid from only one cartridge may be dis pensed at a time.
Abstract:
There is disclosed a multiple roll towel dispenser. The dispenser cabinet has a pair of feed rollers (37,38) forming a feed roll nip (35), means (43) for driving one of the feed rollers (37) to dispense web (30W) from the cabinet, means (32,33) in the cabinet for supporting a first roll (30) of web material with its web extended between the feed roll nip (35), and means (47) for supporting a second roll (28) of web material with its web (28W) extended adjacent to the feed roll nip (35). The dispenser also includes means (75), contacting the edge of the first roll (30), having a first position for sensing the diameter of the first roll; means (84), connected to the sensing means (75), for biasing the sensing means (75) against the edge of the first roll (30); biased transfer means (51) for introducing the extended web (28W) of the second roll (28) into the feed roll nip (35); and stop means (75a), connected to the sensing means (75), the stop means (75a) being located to resist motion of the transfer means (51) at a ready position when the edge of the first roll (30) resists movement of the sensing means (75). When the edge of the first roll (30) no longer resists movement of the sensing means (75), the sensing means (75) and connected stop means (75a) moves to a second position which allows the biased transfer means (51) to move to a transfer position where the extended web (28W) of the second roll (28) is introduced into the feed roll nip (35).
Abstract:
Procédé permettant de produire le brillant et le lissé à la surface d'une bande de papier (1) et consistant: A. à faire avancer une bande (1) de fibres pour fabriquer du papier à travers un écartement formé par un tambour (2) de finissage en métal lisse et un cylindre de contre-pression (3, 5) élastique assurant une pression entre cylindres sur la bande (1) d'au moins 13 780 KN/M2, et B. à chauffer le tambour (2) à une température au moins suffisamment élevée pour chauffer une partie des couches inférieures critique de la bande (1) à une température égale à au moins la température de transition vitreuse dynamique (Tg) des fibres afin d'obtenir une augmentation inattendue du brillant et de la planéité de la surface sans densifier de manière excessive la feuille entière.
Abstract:
Production d'un nouveau type de pulpe, principalement de pulpe de bois, à partir de copeaux en utilisant un prétraitement avec des stabilisateurs et un peroxyde alkalin avant la fibrillation mécanique (raffinage) pour accroître la blancheur des fibres résultantes et la résistance du papier pouvant être obtenue avec les fibres. Le nouvel aspect du prétraitement avant le raffinage est qu'il provoque la formation in situ à l'intérieur des copeaux d'une floculation ou d'un sol stabilisateurs.
