  • Patent number: 11085769
    Abstract: A gyroscope includes a substrate, a first structure, a second structure and a third structure elastically coupled to the substrate and movable along a first axis. The first and second structure are arranged at opposite sides of the third structure with respect to the first axis A driving system is configured to oscillate the first and second structure along the first axis in phase with one another and in phase opposition with the third structure. The first, second and third structure are provided with respective sets of sensing electrodes, configured to be displaced along a second axis perpendicular to the first axis in response to rotations of the substrate about a third axis perpendicular to the first axis and to the second axis.

  • Patent number: 10138087
    Abstract: Device and method for controlling axial forces acting upon a moving web comprises first, second and third rotatable rollers. The third roller is between the first and second rollers and is movable in a circular path in the vertical plane between lower and upper positions in response to axial forces acting at any moment upon the web. To enable a simple manual installation of the web, the upper position of the third roller is at a sufficient vertical distance above the first and second rollers to form an open horizontal passage through which the web can pass freely between the first and second rollers and the above-situated third roller. Axial forces are controlled by biasing the third roller with a force which counters the motion of the third roller in the direction of the upper working position and which is less than the ultimate tensile strength of the web.

  • Publication number: 20140230672
    Abstract: The disclosure relates to an apparatus for flexographic printing of a web of packaging material. The apparatus has an anilox roll which is rotary in an ink pan or chamber for picking up and transferring printing ink to an impression cylinder which is rotary adjacent the anilox roll and forms, together with a counter pressure cylinder rotary adjacent the impression cylinder, a nip through which the web is led for receiving printing ink from the impression cylinder. In order to prevent printing ink from drying and adhering to the anilox roll, the apparatus displays a spray- or shower device through which a cleaning fluid for the printing ink is applied on the circumferential surface of the anilox roll.

  • Publication number: 20050053738
    Abstract: A method in the manufacture of a web-shaped packaging laminate (22) comprising a core layer (24) of paper or paperboard, the method including the steps of coating (38) a first side of a material web (40) of paper or paperboard with an outer layer (26) of thermoplastic material, an thereafter forming, with the aid of laser burning (46, 48) on the thus thermo-plastic coated first side of the packaging laminate (22), a perforation line (32) through said thermoplastic layer (26) and said core layer (24). After said coating (38) with the thermoplastic material but before the formation of the perforation line, the packaging laminate (22) is compressed (44, 10) on said first side for the formation of a compression line (30) in which said core layer (24) is compressed, whereafter said perforation line (32) is formed in said compression line (30). The present invention also relates to a plant in the manufacture of the packaging laminate, as well as the thus produced packaging laminate (22).

  • Patent number: 6627026
    Abstract: The disclosure relates to an apparatus in an adjustable creasing tool (1). The creasing tool (1) includes two mutually co-operating creasing rollers, a male roller (2) and a female roller (3), a gear wheel transmission with a housing (8) for operation and mutual co-ordination of the creasing rollers (2, 3), means for adjusting the mutual position of rotation of the two creasing rollers (2, 3), means for adjusting the position of one of the creasing rollers along its axis of rotation, and means for adjusting the mutual spacing between the axes of rotation (4, 5) of the creasing rollers. Each respective shaft (4, 5) is fixedly connected to each respective gear wheel (6, 7) in the gear wheel transmission by means of rotationally rigid, both radially and axially limited, flexible couplings (9). These permit adjustment of the mutual positioning of the rollers (2, 3) without the meshing relationship of the transmission (8) needing to be affected.

  • Patent number: 6567646
    Abstract: Variations in received signal amplitude caused by filter characteristics are reduced by a C/I measuring apparatus for a signal having a fluctuating carrier-frequency, comprising a filter for filtering the signal and means for splitting the signal into an RSS signal representing the signal strength and a BB signal representing the momentary carrier frequency deviation, comprising means for measuring the RSS signal unaffected by the frequency dependent attenuation in the IF filter. A method of measuring the C/I of a received signal is also disclosed. The method comprises the steps of filtering the signal using an IF filter to obtain one signal channel, feeding the signal to the FM detector and the RSSI unit, and measuring the signal strength of the received signal at a selected, substantially constant, carrier frequency.
