  • Patent number: 11389897
    Abstract: In some embodiments, a method includes engraving, marking and/or inscribing a workpiece using a laser plotter. In said method, in a housing of the laser plotter, one, preferably more, in particular two laser sources in the form of lasers have an effect preferably alternating on the workpiece to be processed. The workpiece is laid in a defined manner on a processing table and a laser beam emitted from the beam source (4) is transmitted to at least one focusing unit via deflection elements and the laser beam is diverted toward the workpiece and focused for processing. The workpiece, in particular the position of the work piece in relation to the laser beam, is controlled by means of software running in a control unit, such that the workpiece is processed line by line by the displacement of a carriage.

  • Patent number: 11104168
    Abstract: In some embodiments, a stamp may include at least one stamping component and one stamping insert. The stamping component may be formed of a top part with a handle element and a bottom part with a cushion-receiving element. The stamping insert may be connected so as to move synchronously via a reversing mechanism having a slide track in the bottom part via an shaft or trunnion to the top part. In the resting position a text plate mounted on the stamping insert may abut against an ink pad soaked with ink in the cushion-receiving element. The stamping insert with the text plate can be shifted by the reversing mechanism into a stamping position. On the ink pad, a protective cover is located on that side on which a handle element is located on a support device of the ink pad. The system including an ink pad and a closure cap.
