Abstract
Abstract A method of manufacturing a steel plate for a steel laminate gasket comprises applying a first seal coating consecutively on at least one side of a base plate in the shape substantially the same as that of an actual steel plate for constituting the gasket. After the first seal coating on the base plate is dried, the base plate is pressed or cut to form a plurality of steel plates. Each steel plate has a configuration as in the actual steel plate, an outer surface formed by the first seal coating on the entire one side thereof and a plurality of holes therein. When a steel laminate gasket is formed, the steel plate with the seal coating thereon is stacked with other steel plates so that the seal coating is located between the two steel plates.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 16
Claim 1
Independent Claim
128 words
A method of manufacturing a steel plate for a steel laminate gasket, comprising: applying a first seal coating consecutively on at least one side of a base plate, said first seal coating having an outer configuration and a plurality of hole portions therein, which substantially correspond to an outer configuration and holes of an actual steel plate for constituting the gasket, respectively, drying the first seal coating on the base plate, and cutting the base plate along the outer configuration and holes of the actual steel plate to form a plurality of steel plates for constituting the gasket, each steel plate having the first seal coating on the entire outer surface thereof so that the first seal coating is even in thickness without being deposited inside the holes.
Claim 2
Independent Claim
128 words
A method of manufacturing a steel plate for a steel laminate gasket, comprising: applying a first seal coating consecutively on at least one side of a base plate, said first seal coating having an outer configuration and a plurality of hole portions therein, which substantially correspond to an outer configuration and holes of an actual steel plate for constituting the gasket, respectively, drying the first seal coating on the base plate, and cutting the base plate along the outer configuration and holes of the actual steel plate to form a plurality of steel plates for constituting the gasket, each steel plate having the first seal coating on the entire outer surface thereof so that the first seal coating is even in thickness without being deposited inside the holes.
