Apparatus for resin-impregnation of fibers for filament winding.U.S. patent: 7,413,623 Issued: August 19, 2008 Inventor: Robert M. Raday Assigned: RSE RSE Relative Standard Error RSE Responsabilidad Social Empresarial (Spanish) RSE Royal Society of Edinburgh (UK; also seen as TRSE) RSE Rear Seat Entertainment (Volvo) Industries Key statement: A two roll impregnator for impregnating fiber reinforcement for use in filament winding operatives contains two abutting rolls, at least one and preferably both having an elastomeric surface. Resin is constrained within a bath whose lower surfaces are defined by the abutting rollers and side dams. Fiber reinforcement is drawn over a first roller through the resin bath and between the closed nip of the abutting rollers, where full impregnation impregnation /im·preg·na·tion/ (im?preg-na´shun) 1. fertilization. 2. saturation (1). impregnation 1. the act of fertilizing or rendering pregnant. 2. saturation. is fostered, excess resin removed, and the impregnated im·preg·nate tr.v. im·preg·nat·ed, im·preg·nat·ing, im·preg·nates 1.
