  • Drying apparatus and its control device for rotary printing press
    Patent number: 5203092
    Abstract: In the drying apparatus for rotary printing press for drying the ink on the printed paper which has a direct fired deodorizing apparatus (8) and a heat recovery apparatus (9) for heating the hot air circulating in a drying apparatus (1) by using the exhaust gas from the deodorizing apparatus, the drying apparatus and its control device are so adapted that a bypass line (20) is installed on the hot air circulation line to bypass the heat recovery apparatus to control the temperature of printed paper and/or the temperature of hot air blowing from nozzles (3) by adjusting the degree of opening of a bypass damper (21) disposed in the bypass line, and the burning amount of the burner for deodorization is controlled so that the deodorizing apparatus furnace temperature corresponding to the blowing hot air temperature (16) or paper temperature (17) is obtained. Further, the control device carries out the control in response to the change in printing speed. Thus, the control responsiveness can be enhanced.

  • Method of controlling roll eccentricity of rolling mill and apparatus for performing the same method
    Patent number: 4299104
    Abstract: A method of controlling roll eccentricity of a rolling mill is disclosed, in which a component of a rolling load variation which is due to eccentricities of an upper and a lower backup rolls of the rolling mill is obtained as a first eccentricity compensation signal by removing a rolling load variation component due to a variation of thickness of a material to be rolled from a rolling load variation occurred during the rolling operation, a rolling load variation value due to the roll eccentricity of the backup rolls is obtained from a rolling load variation occurred during rotations of work rolls which are in contact with each other under a load and is memorized as a second roll eccentricity compensation signal, a first signal is obtained by multiplying the first roll eccentricity compensation signal with a coefficient which is larger than 0 and smaller than 1, a second signal is obtained by multiplying the second roll eccentricity compensation signal with another coefficient which is larger than 0 and smalle
