Apparatus For Feeding A Panel From A Stack

View page
US Patent:
6626633, Sep 30, 2003
Filed:
Dec 28, 2001
Appl. No.:
10/035648
Inventors:
Robert J. Jendzurski - Lancaster PA
Todd R. Hassel - Mobile AL
Karl B. Himmelberger - Millersville PA
Assignee:
AWI Licensing Company - Wilmington DE
International Classification:
B65G 5906
US Classification:
4147979, 4147975
Abstract:
Disclosed are both a method and apparatus for preventing facial defects from occurring to the face of a panel as it is removed from a stack of similar panels. The apparatus includes at least two synchronized cams working together to lift a stack of panels as the bottom most panel is removed from the stack. In supporting the stack of panels as the bottom panel is freed, the bottom panel can be slid out from under a stack without damaging the facing of the panel.

Fibrous Sheet Enhancement

US Patent:
20020117280, Aug 29, 2002
Filed:
Jul 27, 2001
Appl. No.:
09/916355
Inventors:
Matthew Howle - Hockessin DE, US
Karl Himmelberger - Millersville PA, US
International Classification:
D21H017/07
D21H017/45
D21H017/04
US Classification:
162/166000, 162/168200, 162/173000, 162/179000
Abstract:
A method and composition are disclosed for providing a two-part polymer binder additive for a fibrous sheet by improving both its strength and durability. The polymer binder comprises both the addition of a resin system and an anionic polymer which impart both increased strength and resistance to moisture and sagging. The resin system includes a polyamidoamine-epihalohydrin resin, a latex and an anionic polymer.

Fibrous Sheet Enhancement

US Patent:
20030079847, May 1, 2003
Filed:
Sep 10, 2002
Appl. No.:
10/238865
Inventors:
Matthew Howle - Hockessin DE, US
Karl Himmelberger - Millersville PA, US
Assignee:
Armstrong World Industries, Inc.
International Classification:
D21H011/00
US Classification:

Apparatus For Segmenting Building Boards

View page
US Patent:
48156442, Mar 28, 1989
Filed:
Jan 11, 1988
Appl. No.:
7/116491
Inventors:
John R. Garrick - Lancaster PA
Karl B. Himmelberger - Lancaster PA
Assignee:
Armstrong World Industries, Inc. - Lancaster PA
International Classification:
B26F 300
US Classification:
225 97
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a method and apparatus for segmenting groove molded building boards. In a preferred embodiment, a sheet of groove molded board is conveyed onto a first apparatus which separates the side edge trim scrap from the board. The board then passes onto a segmenting apparatus comprising a first horizontal conveyor, an inclined conveyor, a second generally horizontal conveyor, and adjustably mounted roller assemblies. The first apparatus removes the side-edge trim scrap from the board and the second segmenting apparatus breaks the groove molded board transversely along the groove molded lines. In addition, the second apparatus separates the leading and trailing edge scrap so as to provide individual board panels which require no additional trimming. As an alternative, two segmenting conveyors can be used in tandem so as to remove all of the scrap, thereby obviating the need for the first trim-scrap removing apparatus.

Acoustically Porous Building Materials

View page
US Patent:
45856850, Apr 29, 1986
Filed:
Jan 14, 1985
Appl. No.:
6/690990
Inventors:
John S. Forry - Manor Township, Lancaster County PA
Karl B. Himmelberger - Lancaster PA
Assignee:
Armstrong World Industries, Inc. - Lancaster PA
International Classification:
B32B 1706
B32B 1904
B32B 3114
E04B 182
US Classification:
428143
Abstract:
The present invention relates to acoustically porous building materials which are produced by disposing an aggregate material on the surface of a dry-formed web comprising a fibrous material and an organic binder, and consolidating the composite material such that the aggregate material is embedded in the web. The resulting product is acoustically porous but, in one preferred embodiment, the embedding process provides a substantially planar surface which is relatively non-friable.
