摘要:
The invention is directed to amphipathic polymeric particles that serve as both the dispersant and the binder in water based inks, ink compositions containing these particles, and methods for making the particles. The polymeric particles contain both hydrophilic and hydrophobic moieties with a pre-determined structure, and have an average diameter of 50 to 500 nm. The amphipathic polymeric particles may be prepared by a side-chain conversion method or a polymerization process involving an ATRP step, with or without a cross-linking agent. This invention improves the stability of polymer and inks by both ionic and steric stabilization of the suspended polymer particles.

The present invention relates to an adhesive coating device for sheet-binding provided with a roller 14, part of which is immersed in adhesive 10 stored in an adhesive reservoir 12, for applying hot-melted adhesive 10 in the above-mentioned adhesive reservoir 12 along the arranged one-side edge of a bundle of sheets 54 while rotating. The device includes an electromagnetic induction heating coil 20 disposed in the vicinity of the above-mentioned roller 14, and a current supply device 51 for supplying a high-frequency current to the above-mentioned electromagnetic induction heating coil 20. The above-mentioned roller 14 is formed of a heating member for generating heat using the Joule heat owing to an eddy current caused by a high-frequency magnetic flux generated by the above-mentioned electromagnetic induction heating coil 20, and the above-mentioned roller 14 is heated by supplying a current from the above-mentioned current supply device 51 to the above-mentioned electromagnetic induction heating coil 20 so that the adhesive 10 stored in the above-mentioned adhesive reservoir 12 is melted.

Systems and methods of dispensing adhesive in a bookbinding system are described. Sheets may be bound into bound text bodies having respective spines exposed for adhesive application and characterized by multiple length dimensions and multiple thickness dimensions. In one aspect, a sheet binding system comprises an adhesive dispenser that is configured to dispense across the thickness dimension of a text body spine solid sheet adhesive having one of multiple effective widths that is sized to correspond substantially to the length dimension of the text body spine. In accordance with this approach, books of different lengths (or heights) may be readily bound with solid sheet adhesive that may be contained within a single, replaceable cartridge housing.

A book cover paper that is to be glued to a book block back has material scooped out on the side facing the book back, reducing the thickness of the cover paper at least over the width of the book block back, before the cover paper is joined to the book block back.
摘要:
An indexible turret delivers successive stacks of a series of stacks of overlapping paper sheets to an adhesive applying or coating station where the elongated spine of a freshly delivered stack assumes a predetermined position. An elongated carriage is movable longitudinally of the spine at the coating station and carries two mirror symmetrical nozzles one of which is activated to supply a coat of adhesive to the spine at the coating station while the carriage moves in one direction and the other of which is activated to apply a coat of adhesive to the spine of the next stack of the series while the carriage moves in the opposite direction. The nozzles have elongated slots extending transversely of the spine at the coating station, and each nozzle is mounted in a discrete frame and is adjustable in and/or with such frame transversely of as well as toward and away from the spine at the coating station. The frames carry pairs of roller followers which track the exposed sides of pairs of clamping elements forming part of the turret and serving to engage the stacks adjacent to their spines.

A glue spreader for spreading glue to a back or adjacent area of a book block of gathered printed pages conveyed past the glue spreader on a conveyor includes a tub for holding the glue. At least one application roller, drivable in the same direction and at the same speed as the book block, is submerged in the tub in order to take up the glue and transfer the glue to the back of the book block. A blade coater is adapted for arrangement above the glue level in the tub at a changeable distance to the application roller. An actuation element is coupled to the blade coater for adjustment of the blade coater for determining a thickness of a glue film to be transferred to the book block back based on the changeable distance to the application roller. A controllable electric motor has a drive element and the actuation element of the blade coater is operatively connected to the drive element of the controllable electric motor.
摘要:
A process is provided for producing booklets, such as bank check booklets, having variable printed information. A paper stock for the booklets, perforated for separation into panels, is coated with a catalyst along certain surfaces. After passage through a non-impact printer, such as a laser printer, the panels are separated and stacked in such a way that the surfaces coated with a catalyst extend along an edge of each panel, with these edges being aligned in a common direction. When the coated edges of each stack of panels are subsequently pressed against an adhesive layer coated on a binding cover, the catalyst begins the process of hardening the adhesive in the layer.
摘要:
Apparatus and method for binding a book utilizing a binding tape having a flexible substrate and a heat activated adhesive. The binding tape is forced against the front cover of the book utilizing a heated platen, so as to form a front cover seal simultaneously along the length of the front cover. The platen then folds the tape around the edge of the book so as to form the spine of the book. The platen then forces the remaining portion of the tape against the back cover so as to form a back cover seal simultaneously along the length of the back cover.
摘要:
A mechanism and method for applying adhesive to a sheet at an adhesive applying station from a mechanism adjacent the adhesive applying station for applying adhesive. A sheet support mechanism is provided adjacent the adhesive applying station. A moving mechanism is provided for moving a portion of a sheet in one direction relative to the sheet support mechanism from an initial position to a position adjacent the adhesive applying mechanism in order for adhesive to be deposited on the sheet. A mechanism is also provided for moving the portion of the sheet with the adhesive thereon away from the adhesive applying mechanism in an opposite direction beyond the said initial position.
