Abstract
The invention concerns a method for sealing a surface (13) of a body (11), wherein a thin material (21) is applied to the surface (13) and is connected to it by means of melting due to mechanical stimulation.
Claims10
Method for sealing a surface (13) of a body (11), characterized in that a thin material (21) is positioned on the surface (13) and that this thin material (13) is connected to the surface by means of melting, due to mechanical stimulation via a sonic head (24).
Method according to one of the preceding claims, characterized in that the thin material (21) is a film or a tape.
Method according to one of the preceding claims, characterized in that the thin material (21) and/or the surface (13) is melted partially.
Method according to one of the preceding claims, characterized in that the melting is carried out under pressure (F2).
Method according to one of the preceding claims, characterized in that several thin materials (21) are applied.
Method according to one of the preceding claims, characterized in that one of the thin materials (21) comprises decorative elements.
Device (1) for sealing a surface (13, 36) of a body (10, 11, 12) with a thin material (21), characterized by a storage (20) from which the thin material (21) is taken, a positioning means (22, 23) for positioning the thin material (21) on the surface (13, 36) to be sealed, and a sonic head (24) for connecting the thin material (21) with the surface (13, 36) by melting the thin material (21) and/or the surface (13, 36) through mechanical stimulation.
