Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
An anti-icing system may comprise a deicing boot of an elastomeric material comprising a plurality of tubes, wherein the deicing boot comprises a first set of tubes and a second set of tubes, wherein each of the first set of tubes and the second set of tubes have a corresponding end, and wherein the corresponding end is coupled to a continuous dual wrap end closure.
First claim
Opening claim text (preview).
What is claimed is: 1. An anti-icing system comprising: a deicing boot of an elastomeric material comprising a plurality of tubes, wherein the deicing boot comprises a first set of tubes and a second set of tubes, wherein the first set of tubes has a first end and the second set of tubes as a second end, wherein the first and the second end are coupled to a continuous dual wrap end closure configured to inhibit fluid communication between the first set of tubes and the second set of tubes, and wherein the continuous dual wrap end closure comprises a continuous non-elastomeric tape, wherein the continuous non-elastomeric tape defines a first layer and a second layer, wherein the first end of the first set of tubes is enclosed by the first layer and the second end of the second set of tubes is enclosed by the second layer. 2. The anti-icing system of claim 1 , wherein the elastomeric material comprises at least one of a synthetic rubber, a natural rubber, or a polyurethane. 3. The anti-icing system of claim 1 , wherein the first set of tubes extends along an axis parallel to the second set of tubes. 4. The anti-icing system of claim 1 , wherein each of the plurality of tubes are coupled relatively between a separating strip, wherein an end portion of the separating strip is enclosed by the first layer. 5. The anti-icing system of claim 1 , wherein a gum ply layer is bonded relatively between the first layer and the second layer. 6. The anti-icing system of claim 1 , wherein a first midline strip is bonded along a dorsal surface midline of the first layer.
