Abstract: Squeegee assembly for a screen printing machine with a printing table, wherein the squeegee assembly has at least one squeegee, one squeegee holder and at least one support displaceable across the printing table, wherein the squeegee is held on the support by means of the squeegee holder and can be pressed against the printing table by pressure cylinders, characterized in that the support has a U-shaped profile, and at least the cylinder sections of the pressure cylinders are accommodated within the U-shaped profile.

Abstract: A cleaning method for the screen stencil of a silk-screen printing machine. According to the method, prior to an intermediate printing process designed to clean the screen stencil, the underside of the stencil is wetted with a cleaning agent that dissolves dye. An intermediate printing device includes an intermediate printing roll that can be displaced back and forth. A rotating roll that is immersed in a cleaning bath is situated at the front end of the intermediate printing roll. The rotating roll can be brought into contact with the underside of the screen stencil prior to the intermediate printing process by means of a pivoting device.

Abstract: A flatbed printing machine includes at least one adjustable side stop in an infeed area for the medium to be printed. The side stop is arranged between an infeed area edge and a feeder edge over which the medium to be printed is carried. The side stop is adjustable in a guide parallel to the infeed area edge and to the feeder edge. A link belt is provided, which link belt is capable of tracking the side stop and covering a gap that would otherwise occur between the infeed area edge and the feeder edge.

Abstract: Squeegee assembly for a screen printing machine with a printing table, wherein the squeegee assembly has at least one squeegee, one squeegee holder and at least one support displaceable across the printing table, wherein the squeegee is held on the support by means of the squeegee holder and can be pressed against the printing table by pressure cylinders, characterized in that the support has a U-shaped profile, and at least the cylinder sections of the pressure cylinders are accommodated within the U-shaped profile.

Abstract: The invention relates to a cleaning method for the screen stencil of a silk-screen printing machine. According to said method, prior to an intermediate printing process designed to clean the screen stencil, the underside of said stencil is wet with a cleaning agent that dissolves dye. The invention also relates to an intermediate printing device comprising an intermediate printing roll that can be displaced back and forth. A rotating roll that is immersed in a cleaning bath is situated at the front end of said intermediate printing roll. The rotating roll can be brought into contact with the underside of the screen stencil prior to the intermediate printing process by means of a pivoting device.

Abstract: The invention relates to a screen-printing machine which comprises a gripping mechanism connected to a printing board used for inputting and outputting a printed article. Said gripping mechanism is provided several grippers which are disposed on a conveyor belt. A flexible and flat support preferably made of fabric is arranged between each pair of grippers. The printed article is placed on the support when it is transferred over the printing board. Said invention prevents the rear face of the printed article from being damaged.

Abstract: The invention relates to a heart catheter, more particularly for the treatment of arrhythmogenic areas in a heart chamber, with a tubular guiding catheter, a probe for localization of the areas to be treated, comprising a probe body, and an optical fiber for irradiation of the pathological areas, seated in a receptacle. The maneuverability and stability of the probe is improved by means of a probe body having a proximal and a distal portion, the distal portion comprising a cavity that is confined by an essentially rigid wall, and having a larger cross-section than the receptacle for the fiber.

Abstract: A program-controlled communication installation is composed of at least a digital computer system having a computer core (processor) administered by a multi-tasking operating system and having a system memory wherein a plurality of program modules are stored. Each of the program modules serves the purpose of realizing a defined function of the communication installation. A function can only be executed in that the appertaining program module is handled by the computer core. Since a plurality of functions usually pend for execution, the executable program modules are noted in a process list from which the operating system respectively selects the program module having the highest priority and allocates it to the computer core for execution.

Abstract: A modularly-structured integrated services digital network (ISDN) communication system comprises a system processor that should be available for a real-time operating system and for a timesharing operating system. In order to enable continuous transitions of the system processor from one operating system into the other operating system, the task having the lowest priority (idle task) and a program subsystem having comparatively high priority in the real-time operating system (multitasking operating system) are fashioned as branch subsystems in which an assignment change from the addressing tables of the real-time operating system onto that of the timesharing operating system occur. The program subsystem with comparatively high priority which is fashioned as a branch subsystem assures that a certain minimum portion of the calculating capacity of the system processor is assigned to the timesharing operating system independently of the traffic load of the real-time operating system.

Abstract: To improve the mechanical strength of a rubber hose cable, support elements are arranged between the conductors and the support elements are connected to a high tensile strength wrapping applied with a lay opposite the twisted conductors with adhesion or by cementing.

Abstract: In order to improve the mechanical strength of power and control cables which are subjected to high mechanical stresses in operation, the conductors are elastically fixed to a structural element of the cable. To this end, the conductor insulation is joined in a material-bonded manner to the structural element which consists of a soft elastomer. The conductors are provided, for instance, with a thin cover layer of polyethylene which can be cross-linked peroxidically and is cross-linked after the inner jacket is applied, and in the process makes a material-bonded connection to the inner jacket which consists of a vulcanizable mixture of ethylene-propylene rubber and natural rubber.

Abstract: A mixing extruder with an extruder worm for processing rubber and synthetic materials, which has three regions following each other in its feeding direction. The first one of these regions represents a mixing chamber which can be closed at intervals at all sides. The second region is formed by a storage zone for securing a smooth change-over from discontinuously feeding the extruder to continuously feeding the extruder, and the third region is designed as an ejection zone for feeding material in the extruder to the discharge opening thereof.

Abstract: Fruits, such as nuts and the like, are loaded at an inlet end into an elongated housing having a passage provided with a rotatable screw. At the end adjacent the inlet the screw serves to crush and thoroughly comminute the fruit so that the oil therefrom can be drawn off through strainers. The screw is formed with a thread having gaps which receive flow-interruptors which project inwardly from the housing and which insure complete mixing of the crushed fruit. In addition the screw is formed with a ridge defining a narrow gap with the inner wall of the housing so that no large particles can be left in the finished product. The screw also has a region of lesser diameter where the crushed fruit is degassed by withdrawal of air and vapor through the wall of the housing. The housing and the screw are heated so that as the fruit is being crushed and the oil extracted this fruit is roasted. At the downstream end the paste-like pulp of the fruit is extruded.
