MUMBAI, India, July 25 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202547067884 A) filed by Bobst Italia S. P. A., Piacenza, Italy, on July 16, for 'drying module of a drying unit.'
Inventor(s) include Patrucco, Andrea; and Parodi, Davide.
The application for the patent was published on July 25, under issue no. 30/2025.
According to the abstract released by the Intellectual Property India: "This invention is about a modular design for a dryer, in particular about a drying module. The drying module is made of an alternation of impingement nozzles and flotation nozzles connected to a common pressurized air source. The impingement nozzles have a counter roller that guides the substrate thanks to the drying air that pushes the substrate against the roller. The flotation nozzles are made of two nozzles facing each other and blowing with the same strength against the substrate that "floats" between them. The module has one or two air inputs connected to one or two input air chambers which are kept at constant pressure and feed the nozzles with air. The second air chamber feeds the bottom floatation nozzles and may be connected to the first air chamber to form a single air chamber. The module has a return air chamber crossed by the substrate. The dryer can be made of several of these modules to adapt its drying capability or can be constructed as an alteration of these two types of nozzles in a single dryer module. The forward and backward air chambers may be respectively connected together or connected to a common air source or air sink."
The patent application was internationally filed on Dec. 12, 2023, under International application No.PCT/EP2023/085423.
