According to the abstract released by the Intellectual Property India: "A tool for a catalyst applicator for applying a catalyst to the metallic honeycomb base of an exhaust gas purification catalyst, the tool having a cylindrical partition member which is flexible and being inserted into a metallic outer cylinder which has a longer axial length than the honeycomb base. The tool is used when applying a catalyst slurry containing a catalyst metal to the honeycomb base supported by the outer cylinder in such a state that the axial direction thereof is vertical. The partition member is disposed so that the outer circumferential surface thereof faces the inner circumferential surface of an outer-cylinder extension, which is a portion of the outer cylinder that protrudes upward from the upper end surface of the honeycomb base. The partition member is disposed so that the lower end thereof is near to the upper end surface of the honeycomb base in order to inhibit the catalyst slurry from coming into contact with the inner circumferential surface of the outer-cylinder extension, when the catalyst slurry is supplied to the upper end surface of the honeycomb base and to the inside of the inner circumferential surface of the partition member."
The patent application was internationally filed on Oct. 17, 2023, under International application No.PCT/JP2023/037554.
