  • Patent number: 9344843
    Abstract: Technical solutions for providing context sensitive service bundles are provided. In some implementations, a method includes identifying location information associated with a user. The location information identifies a first location area. The method further includes, in accordance with (1) a first determination that a first service is available within a predefined proximity to the first location area; (2) a second determination that the second service is also available within predefined proximity to the first location area; and (3) a third determination that the first service relates to the second service to a predefined degree; using a single application, causing a service bundle to be offered to the user by: causing the first service and the second service to be concurrently offered to the user in the single application.

  • Patent number: 4919049
    Abstract: A web feed printing press, more especially a rotogravure press, has a longitudinal shaft for driving printing units and a device for driving the web draw rolls. In order to achieve a simpler design without any direct mechanical connected between the draw rolls and the longitudinal while still ensuring accurate drive operation the drive device for the pair of draw rolls comprises a main motor and an auxiliary motor each with an adjustable speed of rotation. A differential drive has two inputs and one output. The speed of rotation of the main motor is varied in a way dependent on the speed of rotation of the longitudinal shaft and the speed of rotation of the auxiliary motor is varied in accordance with the speed of rotation of the longitudinal shaft and of the tension of the web of paper to be printed.

  • Patent number: 4757953
    Abstract: In a reel support with devices which preferably are in the form of pins able to be moved in and out, and serve to accommodate at least one reel of paper or the like which is wound on a central shell made of cardboard or the like and from which a strip of paper can be unwound, a bursting of the cardboard shell can be reliably prevented and a smooth running achieved by inserting into the cardboard shell a crossbeam which suitably is in the form of a pipe made of carbon filament reinforced plastic.

  • Patent number: 4750659
    Abstract: The invention is concerned with improvements in a web draw-in system for a web printing press comprising printing units with register rolls around which the web is trained, a draw-in bar to be attached to the leading end of the web and two tractive elements extending along the side frames of the press and guided by bend pulleys following the web path in the press. The tractive elements extend from one drum at one end of the press to a further drum at the other end so that they may be wound onto and unwound from such drums moving the draw-in bar along the web path.

  • Patent number: 4617864
    Abstract: A cylinder for handling continuous lengths of web material comprises a rotatably mounted tubular casing, a spindle extending from end to end of the casing and arranged to be stationary in relation to rotation of said casing and having an external diameter less than the diameter of an inner face of the tubular casing, at least one support bearing which is symmetrical in relation to the middle of the cylinder and coaxial to the cylinder, the bearing bridging over an annular space existing between the casing and the spindle, oil at least partly filling the annular space, at least one heat exchanger placed in the annular space and surrounding the spindle, mounts fixed to the spindle for locating the heat exchanger thereon, and connection ducts for coolant, at least partly in the form of lengths of flexible hose placed in recesses in the spindle, the connection ducts being adapted to join the heat exchanger with an external coolant supply and return duct.

  • Patent number: 4438695
    Abstract: A cylinder for machines processing running lengths of material is supported at its ends by bearing frames which may be moved for moving the cylinder, the cylinder having a pipe-like or tube-like outer casing which is supported by self-aligning bearings and has within it a core which is not turned and has an outer diameter smaller than the inner diameter of the casing, the casing being supported on the core by at least one support bearing which is symmetrical with respect to the middle of the casing and coaxial thereto. To give the casing a desired line of bending, to be in harmony with the cylinder with which it is used (on the other side of the running length of material) without being changed by moving the cylinder towards and away from the other cylinder, the pipe-like casing is supported in self-aligning bearings at its ends, separately from the core within it, on the end bearing frames.
