Abstract: A cylinder, having a cylindrical body which is rotatable about a cylinder axis of rotation, is usable to process flat material. At least one group of a plurality of tools are distributed around the periphery of the cylinder body in a homogeneous manner. These tools are able to perform a working movement with respect to the cylindrical body and are coupled to a control device which effects that working movement. A first cam plate is traced by the control device of each tool group. A rotatable cover disk is also traced by the control device of each tool group. The cover plate is rotatable and is coupled, for its rotation, to the rotation of the cylinder. The cam plate has a peripheral section that controls the tool working movement, in cooperation with the control device.

Abstract: A rotary folder includes two cutting devices for cross-cutting at least a first web. The cutting devices are cutting or counter cylinders that can rotate together and that define gaps in conjunction with a conveying cylinder. A path of web conveyance runs through each of these gaps. The conveying cylinder or the cutting cylinders support at least one blade for cutting of a product from the webs. The conveying cylinder comprises a retaining device for retaining a cut-off signature and for conveying the signature through the respective gap. The conveying cylinder or the counter cylinders comprise thrust bearings that interact with the blade.

Abstract: A cutting device is used to accomplish the transverse cutting of at least a first material web. The cutting device includes a cutting cylinder and a first counter cylinder. These two cylinders rotate cooperatively and define a first gap through what a first transport path for the first web runs. The cutting cylinder has at least one cutting blade, that cuts a product off the web passing through the gap. The cutting cylinder also has a holding device for holding a cut product and for transporting it through the gap. The counter cylinder comprises a thrust bearing cooperating with the cutting blade.

Abstract: A lamp apparatus including a projector and a controlling component is provided. The projector has a light source for projecting a beam of light. The controlling component is used for controlling the light source of the projector, so that the beam of light projected by the light source may be used as a projection light or an illumination light. When the controlling component controls the beam of light to be a projection light, the light is used for projecting an image. When the controlling component controls the beam of light to be an illumination light, the light is used for illumination.

Abstract: A puncture or gripper cylinder is provided with at least one puncture strip that is provided with gripper pins or point needles. These pins are extendable from the cylinder to puncture and to grip a signature. At least one deflector is carried on the puncture cylinder and is extendable and retractable with respect to a surface of the cylinder. The deflector, when it is extended at least temporarily shields the signature from subsequent pins.

Abstract: In order to improve the efficiency of a self-starting high-frequency generator, where for self-starting power is fed back from the anode circuit to the control grid of the grid-controlled electron tube used as amplifier element, the following measures are provided. An additional oscillating circuit (L.sub.A3, C.sub.A3) which is tuned to a multiple of the operating frequency (f.sub.1) is arranged in the anode circuit. An oscillating circuit (L.sub.G31, L.sub.G32, C.sub.G3) tuned to a multiple of the operating frequency (f.sub.1) is likewise arranged in the control-grid circuit. Components (L.sub.G31) belonging to the feedback circuit are at the same time components of the oscillating circuit arranged in the control-grid circuit.

Abstract: An adjustable cutting knife cylinder in a folder has one or more cutting blades or knives supported at the periphery of a cylinder body. Each blade or knife is adjustable both in a radial and in a circumferential direction. Separate adjusting assemblies are utilized to effect the radial and circumferential movements of the blade or blades.
