MASK FOR PLUGGING PARTICULATE FILTER CELLS

摘要

A mask for plugging cells in a monolith body includes a planar sheet having a cell mask region bordered by a skin mask region. The cell mask region includes a plurality of openings through which a filler material can be injected into selected cells in the monolith body. The planar sheet has a size such that when it is mounted on an end face of the monolith body, the cell mask region overlaps the cells in the end face of the monolith body and the skin mask region extends laterally past a periphery of the monolith body.
