  • Patent number: 10046354
    Abstract: Provided are a blade device equipped with a blade member which can accurately adjust pressing force due to a blade member, and a printing machine and a coating device equipped with the blade device. A blade device according to the present invention has: a blade member contacting with a plate roll to which coating material is to be applied; an upper holder contacting with the blade member from one surface side of the blade member; a lower holder contacting with the blade member from another surface side of the blade member; a tube contacting with the blade member and configured to expand and contract by pressure of fluid; and a tube positioning part which is provided on the upper holder and positions the tube closer to the roller, in a direction in which the blade member extends, than a tip end of the lower holder is. The tube adjusts a pressing force, of the tip end of the blade member, against the roller by being expanded or contracted while being held by the tube positioning part and the blade member.

  • Patent number: 8636632
    Abstract: The sleeve roll according to the present invention has the metallic sleeve 5 fitted over the rubber roll 4, covering the surface of the shaft core part 2, and can be efficiently heated or cooled by having the passage P formed between the metallic roll inner tube 2a and the metallic roll outer tube 2b for the thermal medium to flow through. It also has the heat conductive material 6 mixed into the rubber roll 4, so that it has excellent heat conductivity and the surface of the sleeve can be quickly and efficiently heated or cooled, thus preventing the material to be formed from sticking to the roll.

  • Publication number: 20090151579
    Abstract: The invention is to cope with the minute liquid pressure change due to drying of ink or paint, clogging due to minute dirt, and other problems occurring at the tip of the doctor blade by controlling the curvature of the doctor blade itself by applying a pressure in the direction perpendicular to the surface direction of the doctor blade located in the doctor holder, thus finely adjusting the tip of the doctor blade.
