Patent number: 6766722Abstract: A cutting and transport roller and a process for cutting the material webs which rest on the peripheral surface of the cutting and transport roller. In so doing, the material webs are severed with the aid of a cutter, which is located inside the shell of the cutting and transport roller in its resting position and which exhibits at least one knife, which during the cutting process of the material web reaches through an opening in the shell of the cutting and transport roller. The cutting motion, which is executed by the cutting surfaces of the knife during the cutting process, exhibits rotary components, whereby the rotational motions of the knife run about an axis of rotation, which is either parallel or at an acute angle to a perpendicular line on the plane which is defined by the radial (r) and axial (z) coordinates of the cutting and transport roller.Type: GrantFiled: September 24, 2001Date of Patent: July 27, 2004Assignee: Windmoeller & HoelscherInventor: Franz Plasswich

Patent number: 6705980Abstract: A lay-flat removal device for a plastic tube film web with a lay-flat and squeezing device having lay-flat plates and squeezing rolls that are rotatable in a reversing manner around an axis of a supplied film tube. The removal device includes a first reversing, non-rotational pneumatic reversal rod and a first reversing, rotating deflection roll mechanically connected to one another in a first fixed transmission ratio to form a first functional pair which is driven by a first motor, and a second reversing, non-rotational pneumatic reversal rod and a second reversing, rotating deflection roll mechanically connected to one another in a second fixed transmission ratio to form a second functional pair driven by a second motor. The motors are controlled in such a way that the different functional pairs cover angles of rotation that can be determined in a variable manner.Type: GrantFiled: August 13, 2001Date of Patent: March 16, 2004Assignee: Windmoeller & HoelscherInventors: Michael Hoene, Franz Plasswich

Publication number: 20020066347Abstract: The invention relates to a cutting and transport roller (1) and a process for cutting the material webs (7), which rest on the peripheral surface (3) of the cutting and transport roller. In so doing, the material webs (7) are severed with the aid of a cutter (4), which is located in essence inside the shell of the cutting and transport roller (1) in its resting position and which exhibits at least one knife (9), which during the cutting process of the material web reaches through an opening (6) of the shell of the cutting and transport roller. The cutting motion, which is executed by the cutting surfaces (9a, 9b) of at least one knife during the cutting process, exhibits rotary components, whereby the rotational motions of at least one knife (9) run about the axes (D, 36), which are either parallel or at an acute angle to a perpendicular line on the plane, which is defined by the radial (r) and axial (z) coordinates of the cutting and transport roller.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 24, 2001Publication date: June 6, 2002Inventor: Franz Plasswich
