Abstract: An exhaust gas turbocharger module and internal combustion engine outfitted therewith are disclosed. The exhaust gas turbocharger modules have an individual turbocharging assembly with a low-pressure exhaust gas turbocharger with a low-pressure turbine and a low-pressure compressor which have a common first turbocharger axis. A high-pressure exhaust gas turbocharger is provided with a high-pressure turbine and a high-pressure compressor which have a common second turbocharger axis extending perpendicular to the first turbocharger axis. The low-pressure turbine is connected downstream of the high-pressure turbine via an exhaust gas connection line, and the high-pressure compressor is connected downstream of the low-pressure compressor via a charge air connection line. A housing receives the low-pressure turbine, the high-pressure turbine and the exhaust gas connection line. The low-pressure compressor, the high-pressure compressor, and the charge air connection line are arranged outside of the housing.

Abstract: A web fed rotary printing unit is provided. The printing unit includes a plurality of cylinders including a first cylinder assigned a first adjustable drive motor and a second cylinder assigned a second adjustable drive motor. The first and second cylinders are in a mechanical drive connection that can be moved between engaged and disengaged positions. When the mechanical drive connection is engaged, the first drive motor assigned to the first cylinder forms a master drive in dependence on which the second drive motor assigned to the second cylinder can be controlled in the manner of a slave drive.

Abstract: A web-fed rotary printing unit having a plurality of printing mechanisms is provided. Each printing mechanism includes a form cylinder (1, 5, 16-18, 27-30), a transfer cylinder (2, 6, 3, 7, 12-15, 22-25) and an impression cylinder (3, 7, 11, 26). The component costs associated with the drive motors can be reduced by providing a drive motor (4, 8, 9, 21, 41, 42, 55) that has a drive connection to the other cylinders via the impression cylinder.

Each printing mechanism includes a form cylinder (1, 5, 16-18, 27-30), a transfer cylinder (2, 6, 3, 7, 12-15, 22-25) and a separate or common impression cylinder (3, 7, 11, 26). Stress torques acting on the drive motors can be eliminated to the greatest possible extent by providing a drive motor that has a drive connection to the further cylinders via the impression cylinder.

Abstract: An apparatus and method for driving a driven unit of a printing press, specifically a printing couple or a folding unit of a rotary web press, is disclosed. A cylinder or roller to be driven is driven by a drive with an interposed transmission. An input element is mounted on a shaft of the cylinder or the roller to be driven and an output element is assigned to the drive co-acting with the input element. A shaft of the drive is carried in at least two bearing locations. The output element is mounted directly to the shaft of the drive such that the output element is located immediately adjacent a bearing location of the shaft of the drive.

Abstract: A printing couple of a printing unit for a web-fed rotary press includes a transfer cylinder, a form cylinder, and an inking couple having at least one roller. The transfer cylinder is coupled to the form cylinder, and the form cylinder is coupled to at least one roller of the inking couple, by side-by-side straight gears arranged in a first gear plane. The drive motor is coupled to the transfer cylinder by side-by-side helical gears arranged in a second gear plane.

Abstract: A press pull roll for moving a printing web through a printing press, especially through a folder, includes a roll body which moves the web, and a motor inside the roll body for driving the roll body in rotation. The motor includes a stationary spindle having stator windings, and rotor windings fitted in the roll body. The press pull roll is preferably one of a pair of press pull rolls forming a nip, wherein the second press pull roll may also incorporate a motor, or may be driven by the first press pull roll.
