Twistor encapsulator machine

Claim 1

A MACHINE FOR LAMINATING A PLURALITY OF SPACED WIRES BETWEEN A PAIR OF FLAT THERMOSETTING TAPES, EACH HAVING A THERMOPLASTIC COATING ON CONFRONTING SURFACES COMPRISING, IN COMBINATION; A MAIN FRAME INCLUDING AN UPPER AND A LOWER PORTION; A PAIR OF TAPE SUPPLY SPOOLS, ONE ROTABLY MOUNTED IN SAID UPPER PORTION AND THE OTHER ROTATABLY MOUNTED IN SAID LOWER PORTION OF SAID MAIN FRAME; A SUPPLY FRAME ATTACHED TO ONE END OF SAID LOWER PORTION OF SAID MAIN FRAME; A PLURALITY OF WIRE SUPPLY SPOOLS ROTATABLY MOUNTED WITHIN SAID SUPPLY FRAME; A PAIR OF ADJACENTLY POSITIONED LAMINATING ROLLERS, ONE ROTATABLY MOUNTED IN SAID UPPER PORTION OF SAID MAIN FRAME AND THE OTHER ROTATBLY MOUNTED IN SAID LOWER PORTION; A TAKEUP FRAME ATTACHED TO THE OTHER END OF SAID LOWER PORTION OF SAID MAIN FRAME; A TAKEUP SPOOL ROTATABLY MOUNTED IN SAID TAKEUP FRAME AND HAVING SAID PAIR OF TAPES AND SAID WIRES ATTACHED THERETO; MEANS FOR DRIVING SAID TAKEUP SPOOL TO ADVANCE SAID PAIR OF TAPES AND SAID PLURALTIY OF WIRES FROM THEIR RESPECTIVE SUPPLY SPOOLS BETWEEN SAID LAMINATING ROLLERS AND ONTO SAID TAKEUP SPOOL; WIRE GUIDING MEANS MOUNTED IN SAID LOWER PORTION OF SAID MAIN FRAME AT A POINT BETWEEN SAID LAMINATING ROLLERS AND SAID SUPPLY FRAME FOR SPACING SAID WIRES FROM EACH OTHER AND DIRECTING SAID WIRES TO THEIR POINTS OF TANGENCY WITH SAID TAPES AT THEIR POINT OF ENTRY BETWEEN SAID LAMINATING ROLLERS; MEANS FOR ADJUSTING THE HEIGHT OF SAID WIRE GUIDING MEANS AND POSITIONING SAME INTO CLOSE PROXIMITY TO SAID POINT OF TANGENCY TO MAINTAIN SAID SPACED RELATIONSHIP OF SAID WIRES IN THE LAMINATION EACH OF SAID LAMINATING ROLLERS HAVING A HEATER ELEMENT DISPOSED THEREIN FOR HEATING SAID ROLLERS TO HEAT SAID TAPES TO ABOVE THE MELTING POINT OF SAID THERMOPLASTIC COATINGS, WHEREBY SAID PLURALITY OF WIRES ARE EMBEDDED THEREIN AND SAID TAPES ARE FUSED TOGETHER SIMULTANEOUSLY AS SAID TAPES AND SAID WIRES ARE ADVANCED BETWEEN SAID ROLLERS; AND MEANS MOUNTED ON SAID MAIN FRAME BETWEEN SAID TAKEUP SPOOL AND SAID LAMINATING ROLLERS FOR QUICKLY DISSIPATING THE HEAT IN THE COMPLETED LAMINATION BEFORE STORAGE THEREOF ON SAID TAKEUP SPOOL TO MINIMIZE CURL OF THE COMPLETED LAMINATION.
