Abstract: In a rotary printing machine, a device for the print setting of a printing cylinder equipped with a slip-on sleeve. The printing cylinder is supported in a bearing to which an eccentric bushing is secured for reciprocating the printing cylinder between print engagement and disengagement positions. The device includes a coupling rod secured to the eccentric bushing for reciprocating the latter, and the coupling rod is joined to the eccentric bushing by a separable joint such that the coupling rod may be swung out of the area of the frame opening to accommodate changing of the sleeve without removing the printing cylinder from the printing machine.

Abstract: The invention is directed to a saddle field source for ions or neutral particles which is asymmetrically configured. The saddle field source preferably has three electrodes and has an improved efficiency.

Abstract: An apparatus for adjusting the impression of an impression cylinder, equipped with a tube that can be slipped on, in a rotary press, the mounting of which apparatus has an eccentric bush equipped with a gearing, which is engaged in the operating state by an eccentric adjustment, which can be shifted out of the region of an opening enabling an exchange of tubes and is equipped with a gearing. A toothed quadrant, engaging the gearing of the eccentric bush, and a working cylinder, which is operated by a pressure medium and linked to the toothed quadrant, are pivotably connected with a rocking lever, which is mounted in the supporting frame and engaged by a two-membered driven toggle joint, which is pivotably connected at the other end with the supporting frame.

Abstract: A mounting for an impression cylinder equipped with a slipped on tube, in a rotary press. The axle journal of the cylinder is braced by way of a bearing an operating state against at least three supporting bodies. The supporting bodies can be shifted out of the area of an opening in a supporting frame to enable the tubes to be changed, as well as with respect to the position of the impression cylinder that is to be realized. The supporting bodies are supported in each case in the supporting frame so that they can be pivoted about an axis perpendicular to the supporting frame.

Abstract: A mounting for an impression cylinder, which is equipped with a tube that can be slipped on in a rotary press and which is supported in the operating state laterally and radially by at least three supporting bodies. The bodies can be shifted from the region of an opening in the supporting frame that enables the tubes to be exchanged as well as with respect to the position of the impression cylinder that is to be realized. The supporting bodies are constructed in each case as a roll which supports the impression cylinder over a peripheral bearing surface outside of the seat for the tube and is rotatably disposed on an eccentric bolt mounted in the supporting frame parallel to the axis of the impression cylinder.
