Application No. 10/139,397
a pressure applying assembly constructed and arranged to apply
pressure to said adhesive carrying substrate and said mask substrate
with said selected substrate inserted therebetween;
said apparatus being constructed and arranged such that, when the
selected substrate is inserted between said adhesive carrying substrate
and said adhesive mask substrate, a master processing operation can
be performed wherein (a) said adhesive carrying substrate, said mask
substrate, and the selected substrate are moved together in a feeding
direction, (b) said pressure applying assembly applies pressure to said
adhesive carrying substrate and said mask substrate with said selected
substrate inserted therebetween to cause the adhesive on the adhesive
carrying side of said adhesive carrying substrate to adhesively bond to
one side of the selected substrate and to any portions of the bonding
side of said mask substrate which extend adjacent the periphery of the
selected substrate and are engaged directly with said adhesive layer,
and (c) said take-up roll rotates to wind up a discharged portion of said
mask substrate to which said pressure has been applied along with any
portions of said adhesive layer bonded to the bonding side of the
discharged portion remaining bonded thereto and being substantially
removed from the adhesive carrying side of said adhesive carrying
substrate.
77. A removable cartridge configured to be used with a master
processing apparatus for processing a selected substrate, the apparatus
comprising a frame, said cartridge comprising:
a cartridge body structure constructed and arranged to be removably
mounted to the apparatus frame;
a first feed roll rotatably mounted to said body structure and carrying a
supply of an adhesive carrying substrate, said adhesive carrying
substrate having a layer of pressure-sensitive adhesive disposed on an
adhesive carrying side thereof;
a second feed roll rotatably mounted to said body structure and carrying
a supply of an adhesive mask substrate, said adhesive mask substrate
having a bonding side to which said adhesive will bond;
a take-up roll rotatably mounted to said body structure, said adhesive
mask substrate having a lead end portion thereof connected to said
take-up roll;
said cartridge being constructed and arranged such that, when said
cartridge body structure is removably mounted to the frame, master
processing operation can be performed wherein (a) said adhesive
