Abstract:
A printing press having a horizontally stationary printing head and at least one horizontally moveable inking unit is provided with a safety system that disables the main motor drive to the printing head prior to retraction of the or each inking unit, and which inhibits movement of the inking unit in the retract direction in the presence of an operator or tools positioned behind the inking unit, while permitting movement of the inking unit in an advanced direction in the absence of an operator and tools positioned between the retracted inking unit and the printing head.
Abstract:
This invention discloses an offset printing press for printing securities, which includes an offset printing unit, inspection camera unit, and sheet quality determination unit. The offset printing unit prints a ground tint pattern on a transported paper sheet. The inspection camera unit is arranged upstream of the offset printing unit in the direction in which the paper sheet is transported, and captures an image of the paper sheet. The sheet quality determination unit determines the quality of the paper sheet based on image data output from the inspection camera unit.
Abstract:
A liquid amine compound which can be applied to various uses such as emulsification for bitumens since it has as high surface activity as those of solid amines and is more excellent in workability as compared with the solid amines, and an emulsifier for bitumens produced by using the amine compound. Furthermore, a process for producing an emulsifier a bituminous emulsion by reacting an aliphatic amine having at least one hydrocarbon group having not less than 8 carbon atoms with a carbonyl compound and adding an acid thereto to adjust the pH of the amine compound so as to be not more than 5, and a process for producing a bituminous emulsion composition by using the amine compound.
Abstract:
In an intaglio printing press, a sheet printed by an impression cylinder impressed on a plate cylinder, ink rollers for transferring ink impressed on said plate cylinder and the sheet transmitted with held by the impression cylinder and the plate cylinder after the sheet fed from a feeder transmitted from an upstream of a feeder board to a downstream of the feeder board, the ink rollers are impressed on when the first sheet from starting sheet supply is positioned at the upstream of the feeder board and the impression cylinder is impressed on when the first sheet is arrived at the down stream of the feeder board so that an impression-on timing is hastened so as to transfer an ink on the plate cylinder to the first sheet when the first sheet is arrived between the impression cylinder and the plate cylinder, and the sheet supplying is stopped and the ink rollers and the impression cylinder are thrown off impression when an irregular register occurs in a printing operation.
Abstract:
A curing agent composition for a water-soluble phenol resin used to produce a mold, which comprises a branched ester compound that is derived from a carboxylic acid having a branched chain, and an alcohol, and has 5 to 13 carbon atoms.
Abstract:
Disclosed is a multiplex ethylene copolymer comprising (a) 50 to 94.8 mole % of units derived from ethylene, which are represented by the following formula (I):--CH.sub.2 --CH.sub.2 -- (I)(b) 5 to 45 mole % of units derived from a monomer selected from alkyl acrylates, alkyl methacrylates, vinyl carboxylates and isopropenyl carboxylates, which are represented by the following formula (II): ##STR1## wherein R.sub.1 stands for a hydrogen atom or a methyl group, and X is ##STR2## (in which R.sub.2 and R.sub.3 stand for an alkyl group having 1 to 10 carbon atoms),and (c) 0.2 to 5 mole % of units derived from a monomer having a radical-polymerizable ethylenic double bond and at least one carbon-to-carbon double bond which is different from a double bond of an aromatic nucleus. This ethylene copolymer can be easily cured, and the cured copolymer is a rubber having excellent oil resistance and heat resistance. This multiplex ethylene copolymer can be obtained by copolymerizing a monomer forming the units (a) with a monomer forming the units (b) and (c') a monomer having a radical-polymerizable ethylenic double bond and an acid anhydride group, a carboxyl group and/or an epoxy group, and modifying the obtained copolymer with a low-molecular-weight modifier selected from unsaturated amines and unsaturated alcohols having at least one carbon-to-carbon double bond different from a double bond of an aromatic nucleus (when a radical-polymerizable monomer having an epoxy group is used, the low-molecular-weight modifier may be an unsaturated carboxylic acid having at least one carbon-to-carbon double bond different from a double bond of an aromatic nucleus).
Abstract:
A sheet paper feeder for use in a printing press, includes a cam mechanism interposed between sheet feeding rollers, and a source of drive force for the sheet feeding rollers which are adapted to be repeatedly rotated and stopped along a programmed continuous cam operation curve. A retracting mechanism associated with sheet holddown wheels operates in synchronism with the sheet feeding rollers to cause reciprocating movement of the sheet holddown wheels toward and away from the sheet feeding rollers. An accurately registered sheet is held between the sheet feeding rollers and the sheet holddown wheels while the sheet feeding rollers are stationary, and the sheet feeding rollers are then accelerated up to a predetermined peripheral speed so that, even if the sheet has a slippery surface, or, the sheet feed rate exceeds 100 sheets per minute, the sheet can be accurately and reliably fed in synchronism with the operation of the printing press without causing any slip between the sheet feeding rollers and the sheet.
Abstract:
Binder compositions for a mold each comprising a specific alkaline phenol-aldehyde resin are disclosed. Methods for producing a mold using any of the binder compositions are also disclosed.
Abstract:
A binder resin composition, a curing agent composition, a caking additive composition, a kit, a casting mold composition and a process for manufacturing a casting mold are disclosed, wherein a metallic compound containing a metallic element belonging to Group IB to VIII of the Periodic Table is utilized. The compositions are useful for the production of a sand mold for casting, having an excellent strength, from reclaimed sand, in a self-hardening or gas hardening mold process. The casting mold according to the present invention, which is manufactured in the presence of a metallic compound containing a metallic element belonging to Group IB to VIII of the Perioidic Table has excellent strength.
