Patent number: 8011411Abstract: For transferring an image-forming layer from a transfer foil a printing sheet, an adhesive layer is first applied to the sheet to be printed. The transfer foil provided with the image-forming layer is guided past the printing sheet under pressure, in a coating module (2), such that the image-forming layer adheres to the adhesive and an image is created. The present invention provides a foil transfer device that includes a substrate on the press cylinder that has a reduced adhesiveness relative to the transfer foil.Type: GrantFiled: April 13, 2005Date of Patent: September 6, 2011Assignee: manroland AGInventors: Hans-Georg Eitel, Rainer Gebhardt, Wolfgang Mexner, Uwe Püschel, Michael Reising, Guido Reschke, Jürgen Schölzig, Michael Zinke

Patent number: 7921882Abstract: The feed line for a hydraulic system, in particular of a motor vehicle, is formed, at least over part of its longitudinal extent, by a dimensionally variable body. The wall of the dimensionally variable body is elastically deformable, at least in regions, so that, when the flow passes through the dimensionally variable body, the cross section of the dimensionally variable body can be varied as a function of the pressure of the hydraulic medium.Type: GrantFiled: July 10, 2008Date of Patent: April 12, 2011Assignee: Dr. Ing. h.c. F. Porsche AGInventor: Rainer Gebhardt

Publication number: 20080121123Abstract: A process for affixing an embossing arrangement to a printing press having opposing first cylinder and second cylinder is disclosed. The embossing arrangement includes an embossing tool and an opposing tool. The process includes the steps of mounting the embossing tool and the opposing tool together on the first cylinder; making a surface of the opposing tool which faces away from the first cylinder a pressure-sensitive adhesive surface; and positioning the opposing tool on the second cylinder by rolling the first cylinder over the second cylinder. An embossing arrangement and a photopolymer embossing plate are also disclosed.Type: ApplicationFiled: November 14, 2007Publication date: May 29, 2008Applicant: MAN Roland Druckmaschinen AGInventor: Rainer Gebhardt

Patent number: 7328899Abstract: An apparatus for fixing a sheet on the surface of an electrically conductive cylinder of a printing machine for processing sheets, in particular, a sheet-fed offset printing machine. The apparatus includes an electrode that extends over the width of the cylinder for creating an electric field for adhering the sheet to the surface of the cylinder and an air directing device for directing pressurized air streams against the sheet and preliminary positioning the sheet onto the cylinder prior to being acted upon by the electric field. Various alternative embodiments of the sheet fixing apparatus are disclosed.Type: GrantFiled: June 19, 2001Date of Patent: February 12, 2008Assignee: MAN Roland Druckmaschinen AGInventors: Peter Wulf, Edgar Dörsam, Frank Seidel, Rainer Gebhardt, Udo Trillig, Thomas Litterst, Thomas Ludwig

Publication number: 20060017255Abstract: A control arm for a motor vehicle, such as a control arm for a front axle in a McPherson construction, has an inside bearing for connecting the control arm with a vehicle body, a wheel suspension bearing for connecting a wheel, and a strut bearing, which is constructed as a hydraulically damped bearing. In order to reduce bothersome torsional steering wheel vibrations, the inside body-side bearing of the control arm has a very stiff construction while the bearing used for the support has a soft construction and is hydraulically damped.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 18, 2005Publication date: January 26, 2006Inventors: Joachim Kappich, Jan Pfingst, Rainer Gebhardt

Publication number: 20040040460Abstract: A method and apparatus for coating printed products, wherein the products are initially printed in at least one printing process and are provided with a layer that covers the printing ink on the printed product immediately thereafter in at least one coating process. According to the invention, a corona treatment device is arranged between the final printing station and a device for coating the printing products for subjecting the printing ink on the printing product to a corona treatment immediately after the printing process such that UV varnish can be directly applied onto the printing inks without the requirement of additional printing processes.Type: ApplicationFiled: February 25, 2003Publication date: March 4, 2004Inventors: Wolfgang Frei, Andreas Ihme, Thomas Walther, Rainer Gebhardt
