Patent number: 11919290Abstract: Magnetic or magnetizable particles contained in a coating agent can be aligned using a device that includes a cylinder having a plurality of magnetic elements around its outer circumference. The magnetic elements are arranged in a matrix having columns extending in the circumferential direction and rows extending in an axially parallel manner. The magnetic elements in some columns are mounted as a group on a shared carrier element, and have a variable axial position collectively as a group and independently of the magnetic elements of an adjoining column. In these columns, at least one of the magnetic elements is arranged on the carrier element of a multi-piece cylinder body of the cylinder so as to be adjustable in the axial direction, by way of a mechanical adjusting means, and independently of at least one further magnetic element of the same column which is mounted on the same carrier element.Type: GrantFiled: March 31, 2022Date of Patent: March 5, 2024Assignee: KOENIG & BAUER AGInventors: Eugen Beck, Edwin Kreps, Björn Kriege

Patent number: 11155075Abstract: A device is provided for aligning magnetic or magnetizable particles, which are contained in a coating that is applied to a first side of a web-type or a sheet-type substrate. An application device is arranged in the transport path of the substrate, by the use of which, the coating is applied or is applicable to the first side of the substrate, in at least one application site. A first cylinder, which is embodied as a magnetic cylinder, is arranged in the transport path of the substrate to be transported downstream of the application device and comprises a plurality of elements creating a magnetic field in the region of the outer periphery of the first cylinder. Another cylinder, which is embodied as a magnetic cylinder, is arranged in the transport path of the substrate to be transported and comprises a plurality of elements creating a magnetic field in the region of the outer periphery of that cylinder.Type: GrantFiled: January 15, 2019Date of Patent: October 26, 2021Assignee: KOENIG & BAUER AGInventors: Björn Kriege, Edwin Kreps, Anja Kneitz
