Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 10
Claim 1
Independent Claim
102 words
A method of manufacturing window weather stripping having a rough surface for sealing a gap between a movable glass and a window frame, which comprises the following steps of: (1) extrusion-molding a rubber material into the shape of window weather stripping; (2) vulcanizing the extrusion-molded rubber material to form a vulcanized rubber material; (3) applying a paint consisting essentially of nylon particles contained in a nylon-based bonding agent onto at least one sliding surface of the vulcanized rubber material so that the nylon particles form at least one rough surface; (4) drying the paint-containing nylon particles; and (5) baking the dried paint.
Claim 2
Independent Claim
102 words
A method of manufacturing window weather stripping having a rough surface for sealing a gap between a movable glass and a window frame, which comprises the following steps of: (1) extrusion-molding a rubber material into the shape of window weather stripping; (2) vulcanizing the extrusion-molded rubber material to form a vulcanized rubber material; (3) applying a paint consisting essentially of nylon particles contained in a nylon-based bonding agent onto at least one sliding surface of the vulcanized rubber material so that the nylon particles form at least one rough surface; (4) drying the paint-containing nylon particles; and (5) baking the dried paint.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
42 words
A method of manufacturing window weather stripping for sealing a gap between a movable glass and a window frame, as set forth in claim 1, wherein the step of painting the paint with nylon particles is performed by a roller painting machine.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
88 words
A method of manufacturing window weather stripping for sealing a gap between a movable glass and a window frame, as set forth in claim 1, which further comprises the step of painting a thermoplastic synthetic resin film onto the rough surface of the paint with nylon particles to such an extent that the thickness of the resin film is less than the diameter of the nylon particles, said step of forming a thermoplastic synthetic resin film being performed after the step of drying the paint with nylon particles.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
42 words
A method of manufacturing window weather stripping for sealing a gap between a movable glass and a window frame, as set forth in claim 3, wherein the step of painting the thermoplastic synthetic resin film is performed by a roller painting machine.
Claim 6
Independent Claim
109 words
A method of manufacturing window weather stripping having a rough surface for sealing a gap between a movable glass and a window frame, which comprises the following steps of: (1) extrusion-molding a rubber material into the shape of window weather stripping; (2) applying a paint consisting essentially of nylon particles contained in a nylon-based bonding agent onto at least one sliding surface of the extrusion-molded rubber material so that the nylon particles form at least one rough surface; (3) drying the paint-containing nylon particles by application of heat generated in the extrusion-molding step; and (4) vulcanizing the extrusion-molded rubber material and baking the dried paint at the same time.
Claim 7
Independent Claim
109 words
A method of manufacturing window weather stripping having a rough surface for sealing a gap between a movable glass and a window frame, which comprises the following steps of: (1) extrusion-molding a rubber material into the shape of window weather stripping; (2) applying a paint consisting essentially of nylon particles contained in a nylon-based bonding agent onto at least one sliding surface of the extrusion-molded rubber material so that the nylon particles form at least one rough surface; (3) drying the paint-containing nylon particles by application of heat generated in the extrusion-molding step; and (4) vulcanizing the extrusion-molded rubber material and baking the dried paint at the same time.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim
42 words
A method of manufacturing window weather stripping for sealing a gap between a movable glass and a window frame, as set forth in claim 5, wherein the step of painting the paint with nylon particles is performed by a roller painting machine.
Claim 9
Dependent Claim
88 words
A method of manufacturing window weather stripping for sealing a gap between a movable glass and a window frame, as set forth in claim 5, which further comprises the step of painting a thermoplastic synthetic resin film onto the rough surface of the paint with nylon particles to such an extent that the thickness of the resin film is less than the diameter of the nylon particles, said step of forming a thermoplastic synthetic resin film being performed after the step of drying the paint with nylon particles.
Claim 10
Dependent Claim
42 words
A method of manufacturing window weather stripping for sealing a gap between a movable glass and a window frame, as set forth in claim 7, wherein the step of painting the thermoplastic synthetic resin film is performed by a roller painting machine.
