Abstract
Abstract In a method for continuously coating with a coating solution a plurality of running webs having discontinuous areas in the surface thereof, the improvement which comprises coarsening at least the surface of the web coated in the area of the web immediately following the discontinuous area of the web prior to the coating. The discontinuous areas in the surface can arise from the tape used to connect one web to another web or from projection in the surface of the web.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 9
Claim 1
Independent Claim
84 words
In a method for continuously coating with a coating solution a running web having projecting discontinuous areas in the surface thereof, wherein said web comprises a plurality of webs connected end to end in series with splicing tapes which produce said discontinuous areas, the improvement comprising coarsening the surface of the web to be coated at least in the area of the succeeding webs immediately following the trailing edge of each splicing tape, thereby preventing unevenness in the coating caused by said discontinuous areas.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
84 words
In a method for continuously coating with a coating solution a running web having projecting discontinuous areas in the surface thereof, wherein said web comprises a plurality of webs connected end to end in series with splicing tapes which produce said discontinuous areas, the improvement comprising coarsening the surface of the web to be coated at least in the area of the succeeding webs immediately following the trailing edge of each splicing tape, thereby preventing unevenness in the coating caused by said discontinuous areas.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
32 words
The method as claimed in claim 1, wherein the surface of the webs is coarsened only in the area of the succeeding webs immediately following the trailing edge of each splicing tape.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
35 words
The method as claimed in claim 1, including coarsening both the surface of the trailing edges of the splicing tape and the surface of the succeeding webs immediately following said trailing edges prior to coating.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
39 words
The method as claimed in claim 1, including coarsening all of the surface of the leading edges and the trailing edges of the splicing tape and the surface of the succeeding webs immediately following said tapes prior to coating.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim
91 words
In a method for continuously coating with a coating solution a running web having projecting discontinuous areas in the surface thereof, wherein said web comprises a plurality of webs connected end to end in series with splicing tapes which produce said discontinuous areas, the improvement comprising coarsening the surface of the web to be coated in an area of the succeeding webs which is separated from the trailing edge of each splicing tape by a distance which is short enough to prevent unevenness in the coating caused by said discontinuous areas.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim
91 words
In a method for continuously coating with a coating solution a running web having projecting discontinuous areas in the surface thereof, wherein said web comprises a plurality of webs connected end to end in series with splicing tapes which produce said discontinuous areas, the improvement comprising coarsening the surface of the web to be coated in an area of the succeeding webs which is separated from the trailing edge of each splicing tape by a distance which is short enough to prevent unevenness in the coating caused by said discontinuous areas.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim
32 words
The method as claimed in claim 5, wherein the separation from the trailing edge of each edge tape to the surface of the webs to be coarsened is 0 to 10 mm.
Claim 9
Dependent Claim
15 words
The method as claimed in claim 6, wherein said separation is 0 to 5 mm.
