Method And Apparatus For Reducing Air Entrapment In Rotary Inking Systems

US Patent:
4263848, Apr 28, 1981
Filed:
Feb 8, 1980
Appl. No.:
6/119694
Inventors:
Harshad D. Matalia - Easton PA
John L. Newbegin - Easton PA
Frederick L. Warner - Easton PA
Assignee:
American Newspaper Publishers Association - Easton PA
International Classification:
B41F 3106, B41L 2706
US Classification:
101350
Abstract:
Method of reducing air entrapment in rotary inking systems of the type wherein an inking cylinder rotates through an inking reservoir, including defining a plurality of curvate baffles transversely within said reservoir and tangentially with respect to the path of the inking cylinder, so as to squeeze entrapped air out of the ink; venting excess air from the reservoir and scraping the surface of the rotating cylinder after inking. A suggested diffusion structure includes a plurality of transverse rods positioned in the reservoir in an arcuate array tangential to the path of rotation of the inking cylinder, such that ink is "squeezed" between each rod and the rotating inking cylinder surface to force out entrapped air bubbles.

Filed:
Jul 21, 1975
Appl. No.:
5/597935
Inventors:
John Newbegin - Easton PA
Assignee:
SI Handling Systems, Inc. - Easton PA
International Classification:
B65G 1742
US Classification:
104172BT
Abstract:
A tow line accumulator is provided having at least one conveyor chain track or channel which is stationary and associated with first and second movable control members. The control members cause a tow pin on a driverless tow vehicle to lose contact with a pusher dog on the conveyor chain whereby the vehicle will come to a stop at the accumulator.
