Patent number: 6896632Abstract: A belt drive cantilever tensioner. The tensioner is particularly suited to belt drive systems having a high belt tension. The tensioner comprises a pulley journaled to a cantilever arm. The cantilever arm is pivotably attached to a mounting surface by a fastener at a pivot. The cantilever arm further comprises a hole disposed radially from the pivot for containing an embedded resilient member. A second fastener extends through the resilient member fixing it in a position relative to the first fastener. A load applied to the pulley causes the arm to pivot thereby causing a lever action to exert a force upon the resilient member. The resilient member has a limit of movement as well as an asymmetric force characteristic which increases in proportion to an arm rotation.Type: GrantFiled: February 6, 2003Date of Patent: May 24, 2005Assignee: The Gates CorporationInventor: John D. Redmond

Patent number: 6782812Abstract: A stencil printer of the present invention includes a print drum around which perforated part of a stencil or master is to be wrapped. A master making section make a master and includes a cutter for cutting the stencil paid out from a roll. A master discharging section removes the master wrapped around the print drum and then discharges it. A deciding device determines, on the turn-on of a power supply, whether or not the power supply has been turned off during an interval between the time when the stencil paid out from the roll starts being perforated and the time when the cutter cuts the stencil. When the deciding device determines that the power supply has been turned off during the above interval, the master discharging section discharges the master present on the print drum.Type: GrantFiled: July 1, 2003Date of Patent: August 31, 2004Assignee: Tohoku Ricoh Co., Ltd.Inventors: Toshiharu Hasegawa, Kenro Takeda, Shoji Imazeki, Yoshihito Ebina, Hiromi Omura

Patent number: 4784031Abstract: A replacement cheekstrip having an upper part and a lower part for fitting into a knife box assembly that is installed in the rotary cutting cylinder of the folder used on a roll fed printing press. The upper part is made from a hard solid material connected to the lower part which is made from a soft material. The soft material can be open cell sponge rubber. A knife is inserted between the flat surfaces of the replacement cheekstrips. The soft material applies correct tension to the upper part, hard solid material, which in turn contacts the paper, against an adjacent cutting member, and clamps it securely to enable the knife to make a quiet, consistent, distortion free, severance.Type: GrantFiled: April 6, 1988Date of Patent: November 15, 1988Inventor: Richard W.

Patent number: 3960080Abstract: A combined printer and cutter for simultaneously cutting and printing on a record media such as a paper tape for a customer receipt, including a stationary knife blade and a rotary knife blade which, upon rotation, severs the tape therebetween. Rocker arms are provided for rotating the rotary knife through its cutting operation and to drive the print head from a position against an ink source to a position against the record media simultaneously performing the cutting operation so as to print a trademark or other indicia on the record media concurrently therewith. The stationary knife is itself the printing platen and the rocker arms are mounted on the rotary knife so that all forces involved in oscillating the rotary knife and rotating the print head are taken by this relatively large shaft.Type: GrantFiled: February 12, 1975Date of Patent: June 1, 1976Assignee: The Singer CompanyInventor: Carmeli Adahan
