Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 9
Claim 1
Independent Claim
232 words
A coating device for a web passing over a rotatable roll and extending essentially across the width of a coating mixture application space defined at the trailing end by a blade element provided with a coating edge for smoothing the coating mixture remaining on the web and at the leading end by a restrictor plate extending parallel to the coating edge of the blade element and at each side by a respective coating deckle adjustable within a range in a direction parallel to the coating edge of the blade element, the restrictor plate including a pair of recesses, each coating deckle comprising: a sealing element ; a holder means for holding the sealing element toward the rotatable roll, a collecting space disposed outwardly of said sealing element and communicating with a respective one of said pair of recesses of the restrictor plate to receive excess coating mixture issued out of the application space by way of the sealing element and direct the excess coating mixture through the respective recess of the restrictor plate, and a sealing tongue fixed to the coating deckle and extending inwardly of said sealing element parallel to the restrictor plate for a distance at least corresponding to the range of adjustment of the coating deckle, said sealing tongue bearing flat on the restrictor plate and covering the respective recess of the restrictor plate inwardly of said sealing element.
