Abstract: A doctor blade system utilizes a lightweight doctor blade chamber to apply ink to an inking roller. The doctor blade chamber is removably positioned on a support plate which is, in turn, carried by linear guides on pivotable end plates. A rigid box beam is also attached to the end plates and is spaced from the support plate. A plurality of membrane cylinders are mounted on the rigid box beam and engage a surface of the support plate opposite to the surface that supports the doctor blade chamber. Through the application of suitable force, the support plate and its supported doctor blade chamber can be moved, by sliding motion on the linear slides, into uniform engagement with the surface of the ink roller. The system uses pivotable end plates which are supported by exterior plates that are, in turn, pivotably supported by press side frames.

Abstract: A connector for connecting a dialysate port of a dialyzer with a dialysate-carrying line and a dialyzer. The connector has a recess with a shift element on the end which accommodates the dialyzer port. The shift element is accommodated in the recess and is displaceable between a first position and a second position perpendicular to the direction of the lumen on the first end. The shift element does not pass through the lumen in the first position. In the second position, the lumen is constricted so that the connector with the shift element can be placed on the dialysate port and the connector locked on the dialysate port by means of an undercut thereon.

Abstract: A permanent magnet rotor having a shaft, a hollow cylindrical permanent magnet and an elastic connecting medium between the shaft and the permanent magnet. The permanent magnet is arranged co-axially around the shaft to ensure that the permanent magnet is mounted securely, that it is not damaged during large temperature fluctuations, and that it is not deflected impermissibly from the axis of rotation in case of heavy radial load. A simple installation process uses a mechanical connection between the shaft and the permanent magnet. This task is performed by virtue of the fact that an elastic connecting medium is arranged along the periphery of the shaft at several first areas in which the distance between the shaft and the permanent magnet is enlarged. These first areas are separated from the second areas in which the distance between the shaft and the permanent magnet is minimized but not zero.
