The heat source (1 ) includes the cable (1.1) and the metal body (1.2).
The heat and pressure application element (2) includes a heater mounting hole
(2.1 ).
The power source (4) includes the power source mounting hole (4.1).
The heat source (1) is the element that provides the necessary heat for the process. The heat source (1 ) may vary, for example, the resistance, hot air, laser, infrared, etc. or directly ultrasonic method instead of heat source (1 ) can be used. In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, resistance is used. The cable
(1.1 ) is the element that provides the power flow between the metal body (1.2) and the power source (4). The metal body (1.2) is the part where the heat is generated and transferred from the surfaces via conduction to the heat and pressure application element (2).
The heat and pressure application element (2) is the part that transfers the heat from the heat source (1) to the taped area of the taped object (3), while also applying pressure to the same area. It may vary depending on the system to be used. For example, if a laser is used as the heat source (1 ), construction of the part may vary in alternative embodiments of the invention. Formal changes in the heat and pressure application element (2) are also within the scope of the invention. The heater mounting hole (2.1 ) is the hole that allows the heat and pressure application element (2) to be assembled with the heat source (1).
Taped object (3) is the representative object with the tape wound around it. Thanks to the heat and pressure applied to it through the heat and pressure application element (2), the adhesive in the tape melts and resolidifies, thus the tape end located on the taped object (3) is sealed and closed This taped object
(3) may vary as a product and changing the type of this object is also within the scope of the invention.
The power source (4) is the part that provides the energy required for heat generation in the heat source (1). The power source mounting hole (4.1) is the conduit that establishes the connection between heat source (1) and the power source (4).
The heat source (1 ) that generates heat, the power source (4) and the heat and pressure application element (2) are assembled with the help of the heater mounting hole (2.1 ) and the power source mounting hole (4.2). The cable (1.1 ) provides the connection between the power source (4) and the metal body (1.2). The metal body (1.2) is the part where the heat is generated and the heat is transferred to the heat and pressure application element (2). The heat and pressure application element (2) is the part that applies the heat and pressure to the taped area of the taped object (3).
In the embodiments shown in the figures, a resistance heater is used as the heat source (1 ). Necessary electrical energy taken from the adjustable power source
(4) is transferred to resistance through cables (1.1)). The heated resistance transfers heat to the mounted heat and pressure application element (2) by conduction. For the sealing process with the heat and pressure application element (2), pressure is applied to the application (taped) area for 5 seconds after the surface temperature reaches 130°C. However, this duration and temperature may vary depending on the tape material. The application is carried out between 75°C-180°C. The duration of the pressure application can be experimentally adjusted according to the temperature. That is, it includes the process steps of transfer of the heat between 75°C and 180°C from the power source (4) to the heat and pressure application element (2) by means of the heat source (1 ),
exerting pressure on the taped area on the taped object (3) by this heat and pressure transferred by means of the heat and pressure application element (2), ensuring that taped object (3) is heated and melts due to the pressure and heat transfer and the taped area of the taped object (3) is sealed. As a result, the tape end of the taped object (3) is closed securely and the problems in the application are eliminated.
In an alternative embodiment of the invention, the hot air heating method is carried out by mounting a head that can be mounted on the tip of the hot air gun which directs the hot air to the area to be heat treated and presses on the taped area. This method uses convection, which is one of the basic heat transfer methods.
In another alternative embodiment of the invention, infrared heaters are used, if it is desired to heat the area to be processed directly without heating the air. Infrared heaters work on the principle of irradiation (radiation), one of the heat transfer mechanism. In this method, the process is completed by simultaneously heating the surface to be treated, and the sealing block surface, and then applying pressure to the area to be treated with the help of a sealing block surface.
In another alternative embodiment of the invention, if an ultrasonic method is preferred, a suitable ultrasonic press that presses on the area to be treated is selected.
In another alternative embodiment of the invention, if a non-contact process is desired, laser technologies are used to stitch on the application area.
