Abstract
A laminating device and a method for producing a laminate. The laminating device has at least one membrane element. The laminating device has at least one force distributing element, wherein a laminating force which can be transmitted onto a lamination object by the membrane element can be distributed onto at least one sub region of a membrane-side surface of the lamination object via the at least one force distributing element. The at least one force distributing element is held on the laminating device.
Claims9
A laminating apparatus, comprising:
- at least one membrane member for transferring or exerting a lamination force and having a force-exerting surface;
- at least one force-distributing member configured to distribute a lamination force that is transferred or exerted by said at least one membrane member to a portion of a membrane-side surface of a lamination object by said at least one force-distributing member;
- and
- at least one fabric web retaining member for holding said at least one force-distributing member,
- wherein said at least one force-distributing member is mounted to the laminating apparatus,
- wherein the at least one fabric web retaining member is provided as a member separate from the at least one membrane member, and
- wherein the at least one force-distributing member is sized an arranged in or on the laminating apparatus in such a way that at least a part of the lamination force, which is transferred or exerted by the at least one membrane member onto at least one section of an edge area of the membrane-side surface of the lamination object, is distributed by the at least one force-distributing member only to the portion of the membrane-side surface of the lamination object, wherein said portion is smaller than the entire membrane-side surface of the lamination object.
