Abstract: A mounting device for bearings placed on shaft extensions consists of a lower support basin rigidly connected with the frame and of a lid, connected in a pivoting manner with same, provided with a lower lever forming the operating portion which, when the lid is in the open position, extends into or across the support basin far enough to pivot the lid into its closed position by lowering the bearing abutting against it and placed on the shaft extension; in which closed position the basin rests tightly against the bearing with its circular, curved inner side. For the sake of simplification, a single lid is provided in a pivoting manner with a locking lever, which has at its end a hook portion, which engages an abutment of the support basin. Furthermore, an arrangement is provided which automatically pivots the locking lever.

Abstract: A tearing-off roller pair, for tearing off sections or strips divided by perforation cuts from a material web, consists of a first roller with a substantially smooth steel shell and, applied against it, a second roller with a resilient body set into it for increasing the contact pressure, which resilient body projects above its peripheral surface in its unstressed state. To allow a greater retaining force to be exerted on the sections to be torn off, several of the resilient bodies are set in a recess along a cylindrical surface of the second roller.

In this regard, the plate can be swung to either a retracted position, in which the cantilevered rollers are freely accessible, or to a operating position, where the journals of the free ends of the rollers are carried by the plate.

Abstract: The invention concerns an apparatus for welding the tubular sections of sacks, bags or the like, having a rotating drum and with welding stations arranged on the periphery of the drum which rotate, fixed in position, with the drum, wherein the welding stations are arranged laterally each on one end side of the drum.

Abstract: The invention concerns a method and an apparatus for manufacturing a bag or sack bottom from tubular sections of paper or plastic web. Tubular sections of web material are fed into a feeding plane where they are subsequently sealed along selected seams by a sealing means. The sections are then inverted and fed in parallel to a scoring, gluing and folding section. The tubular section is then inverted again and passed to a pressing section. The tubular sections are stacked on top of each other in a partially overlapping manner as they are passed through the pressing section. After pressing, the tubular sections are passed to a separating station for again separating them before being passed to a packaging station. The invention concerns, moreover, an apparatus for operating the above mentioned method.

Abstract: A film blowing head for extruding a tubular web of a thermoplastic synthetic melt consists of at least one inner cooling ring and a pipe passing through the blowing head, wherein a central pipe is arranged with the formation of an annular space. The annular space is placed in an air conducting communication with the inner cooling ring. The cooling and supporting air is fed via lines into the annular space and is drawn off again through the central pipe. To permit cooling with very cold air, the pipe feeding the cooling air is surrounded, in the zone of the blowing head, by two concentric pipes with the formation of two annular spaces. The two annular spaces are connected with each other in the zone of the plane of the outlet nozzle gap of the blowing head by an overflow compartment that is closed towards the outside. Warm air is fed to one of the annular spaces, and is drawn off again through the other annular space.

Abstract: The invention concerns a multilayer sack or bag with side folds which consists of several tubular webs with side folds inserted one into the other, in which arrangement at least one open end is closed by a bottom. To form a bottom that is comparatively less thick, the outer tubular web with side folds has a projecting flap that extends over its width. At least one inner tubular web with side folds is inserted into this tubular web with side folds in such a way that it terminates at the distal edge of the flap. The projecting strip extending parallel to the flap of the at least one inner tubular web with side folds is folded over onto the outer side of the outer tubular web with side folds. The tubular webs with side folds, inserted one into the other, are folded together round the outer edge of this folded over strip and are fixed in this position.

Abstract: A device for winding a web, preferably a plastic film web produced in a blowing or casting process, includes a driven winding tube for a web, a web tension measuring roller, a driven contact roller positioned between the winding tube and the web tension measuring roller which, in the case of contact winding, can be positioned against the film roll being formed and which, in the case of gap winding, is positioned at a distance from the film roll. A control device controls the motors as a function of the feeding speed of the web and in accordance with the measured tractive force of the web, such that the coil hardness of the wound roll can be predetermined. In the case of contact winding, the torque of the winding motor is controlled according to the increasing diameter of the wound roll and the contact roller is driven at a speed that is controlled according to the tractive force of the web.

Abstract: A sack or bag has a front wall and a rear wall which are respectively connected laterally by a lateral fold, with a strip of the front wall together with the lateral folds on at least one of the two initially open ends being folded about a first folding line running transverse to the longitudinal axis. The corresponding strip of the rear wall remains in place and the folded-over strip of the front wall, as well as the strip left in place on the rear wall, are once again folded around the outer edge of the folded-over strip and attached in this position on the outside of the sack or bag. To make a sack or bag with a tight, leak-proof bottom portion, a corner tuck each is formed on both sides between the strips of the rear wall initially left in place and the side folds folded over together with the folded strip.

Abstract: A flattening and removing device for a plastic tubular film web produced by a stationary film blowing head in a blowing process has two deflecting rollers and two turning bars. The first deflecting roller and the squeezing roller are mounted parallel to each other between mounting plates that are rigidly connected to a turntable mounted in turning fashion in the frame floor. The second deflecting roller is connected by a support frame to a retainer having ends which are connected to gearwheels in eccentric fashion. The turning bars are each connected by support frames to gearwheels, and the center lines of all the gearwheels are aligned with each other and with an imaginary swivel axis. Thus, the diameter of the turning bars can be increased to the desired degree without impeding the passage of the flattened tubular film when the device is installed.

Abstract: In a printing machine with an impression roll and several printing mechanisms, the bearings of the size cylinders and the inking device supports can be moved with the screen rolls on guides of the printing machine stand, approximately radially to the impression roll. The drive of the size cylinders and of the screen rolls is derived from a central drive. In order to create a simple continuously running drive for the inking device rolls, the screen rolls are actively connected via a freewheel to the central drive. For the screen rolls, which can be moved away from the size cylinders, a continuously running drive is provided which consists of a toothed belt, driven by a servomotor, which loops around all of the toothed drive wheels of the screen rolls. The strands of the toothed belt and the strands of the toothed belt enclosing the respectively radial external idle wheels in a loop-like manner, extend in parallel with each other.
