Abstract: A printing plate unit automatic mounting apparatus 81 includes: a pressing member 96 inserted from a pressing member insertion opening 33 and pressing an inner slider 36 against a biasing force applied by a printing plate coupling member biasing apparatus 35, a retaining means 94 configured to retain and release the printing plate unit 1 by retaining and releasing a projecting portion 11a provided on the printing plate unit 1 and configured to serve as a gripping portion; and a drive apparatus 92 configured to move the retaining means 94 in an axial direction of a plate drive shaft.
Abstract: The present invention eliminates backlash between a drive helical gear and a driven helical gear and facilitates rotation of a driven gear member to increase rotational accuracy of a plate cylinder. A plate cylinder drive unit includes a plate cylinder drive shaft, a driven gear member having a driven helical gear that meshes with a drive helical gear and attached around the plate cylinder drive shaft, a position adjustment member moving the driven gear member to fix it at a predetermined position, a whirl-stop member attached to the plate cylinder drive shaft, a sandwiching member removably fixing the whirl-stop member to the driven gear member, a backlash eliminating helical gear disposed on one side of the driven helical gear, first springs bringing the backlash eliminating helical gear in pressure-contact with the driven helical gear, and second springs biasing the backlash eliminating helical gear to rotate it in a predetermined direction.

Abstract: Provided is an ink supply device for a printing machine which can accurately supply a quantity of ink necessary for acquiring desired concentration while making the fine adjustment of concentration of ink by an operator unnecessary. A control device 34 of the ink supply device includes: a concentration prediction value calculation means 53 which acquires a concentration prediction value when the concentration becomes stable based on concentration measured values of a predetermined number of printed matters; a graph change value calculation means 54 which acquires a graph change value using the concentration prediction value and a concentration target value; and a control graph value calculation means 55 which acquires a control graph value for controlling a rotational angle based on a preset set graph value and the graph change value.
Abstract: An ink supply unit is a unitized member having a casing accommodating components therein. A plurality of plate cylinders are arranged in a circumferential direction at predetermined intervals. The ink supply unit corresponding to the plate cylinder is disposed on a radially outer side of the plate cylinder. The ink supply unit can move between an operation position in which ink can be supplied to the plate cylinder and a standby position located further to a radially outer side than the operation position.
Abstract: The present invention provides a printer which can facilitate temperature control of a machine-plate cylinder section, can allow simple setup, and can facilitate maintenance of printing quality in continuous printing. In the printer, a machine plate is mounted on the outer circumference of a machine-plate cylinder section 12 fixedly provided on a machine-plate drive shaft 1. A fluid whose temperature is regulated is circulated in the machine-plate cylinder section 12.
