  • Patent number: 6887888
    Abstract: Aqueous compositions of nonsteroidal triphenylethylene antiestrogens for pharmaceutical use comprising as a solubility enhancing agent a pharmaceutically acceptable mono- or dicarboxylic acid having 1-5 carbon atoms, wherein the carbon chain may further contain 1-4 hydroxyl, 1-3 oxo, or one or several halogen substituents, or a corresponding anion thereof, or methanesulfonic acid or its corresponding anion, in molar excess with respect to the triphenylethylene antiestrogen, optionally together with an organic water miscible co-solvent such as polyethylene glycol (PEG), propylene glycol, ethanol or isopropanol.

  • Patent number: 6820834
    Abstract: A reel-up/winder, comprising one or several members (11, 12) that support the reel/roll (10) to be formed onto a reel/roll spool (16), of which members at least one support member is a belt support member (12), which consists of a belt loop (15) which is supported by means of at least two rolls (13, 14), whose axes are substantially parallel to the axis of the reel/roll spool (16). Into the outer face of the mantle of at least one roll (13, 14) in said belt support member (12), a substantially spiral-shaped groove (204) has been formed, which extends across the axial width (1) of the roll mantle (202).

  • Patent number: 5653399
    Abstract: A method and apparatus for cutting a paper or paperboard web particularly in a winder comprising at least one support roll (2) on which a roll (1) being wound is rotated. A curved, tensioned cutting blade (6) is rotated about the support roll (2) into the nip between the support roll (2) and the roll (1), whereby the sharpened and optionally toothed edge (9) of the blade cuts the web (4) being wound onto the roll (1) at a desired point.

  • Patent number: 4789109
    Abstract: The invention relates to a web winding method and a winder for carrying out core replacement in a support drum winder. The core replacement is carried out with a sequence of measures, where the cutting of the web, removing of completed rolls (3) and placing of a new roll core between the support drums (1,2) is carried out by one single device comprising cutting, pushing and feeding means. The web (18) is held unmovably towards the trailing support drum (1) during the core replacement by means of a retainer device (16,17). For forwarding the removal of the rolls these are lifted by the same retainer device, if needed, to a height as required by the pusher device.

  • Patent number: 4711405
    Abstract: Method and apparatus for fixing the end of a web on a core tube in a web reeling machine which includes a pair of spaced carrier rolls on which the core tube is supported. Adhesive agent is applied on the core tube, supported on the carrier rolls, from below and between the carrier rolls. The adhesive agent is conducted onto the core tube by moving an applicator device in the transverse cross-machine direction, beginning at the underside of the core tube at one transverse end of the reeling machine. The core tube may be urged against the carrier rolls by a depressor roll or the like during application of the adhesive agent on the core tube.

  • Patent number: 4456190
    Abstract: An arrangement for winding a web, in particular a paper web, on a roll core or the like in a two-drum winder comprising two support drums and a rider roll surrounding the web core. The arrangement includes means for supplying, during the final stage of a roll winding process, a new roll core between the newly finished roll and the support drums. There are also a web cutter and means for the transfer of a finished roll away from the support drums. The front end of a transversely cut web is guided to form the beginning of a new roll around a new roll core by guiding means comprising a plurality of guiding units spaced-apart in the circumferential direction of the new roll core. These units include means for creating pneumatic jets urging the web tightly around the new core.
