Abstract
A reinforced magnetic hot patch has an attached rigid backing. The hot patch expands and flows when heated to seal an opening in a structural member. A non-planar magnetic hot patch is also provided.
Claims21
An assembly for sealing an opening in a surface, comprising:
- a hot melt patch, said hot melt patch having a rigid reinforcing backing;
- and
- said hot melt patch further having a non-planar magnetic hot melt adhesive body, said non-planar magnetic hot melt adhesive body having magnetic particles dispersed therein;
- said non-planar magnetic hot melt adhesive body being bonded to said rigid reinforcing backing.
1 more element
A patch assembly, comprising:
- a magnetic hot patch having a rigid non-planar reinforcing backing;
- said magnetic hot patch further having a non-planar adhesive body bonded to said rigid non-planar reinforcing backing;
- said non-planar adhesive body containing a plurality of magnetized particles;
- and
- said non-planar adhesive backing further containing a blowing agent.
