  • Publication number: 20120132047
    Abstract: The objects is to rapidly position and fix a blade swivel to a knife cylinder in a rotary die cutter and to abate abrasion of the inner end of an extrusion member that is brought into contact with an extruding unit. A wooden pattern 22 in which a punching blade 20 is embedded is installed to a blade swivel 18. A knife cylinder 16 includes first penetrating holes 76 accommodating first extruding pins 74 while the blade swivel 18 includes a second penetrating holes 80 accommodating second extruding rod 82. The first extruding pin 74 can be brought into contact with the second extruding rods 82, and an eccentric cylinder 72 extrudes the first extruding pins 74 to further extrude a punched chip a sandwiched between a punching blade 20. At the inner opening of each second penetrating hole 80, a recess groove 98 is formed along the axis direction of the knife cylinder.

  • Publication number: 20120122641
    Abstract: An upper slotter knife is divided into a slotter knife body and a division, and the position of the division relative to a sliding member in which a flap cutter knife is embedded is determined and fixed such that a distance between a nick formed on a cutting blade of the division and the tip of a flap cutter knife is minimized. The presence of the nick makes it possible to form a connection between the slotted chip and the flap chip even when the sizes and the shapes of the corrugated sheet and the joint margin vary. The presence of the connecting point makes it possible to remove the flap chip together with the slotted chip, so that scattering of the flap chip and inferior gluing of the joint margin can be prevented.

  • Publication number: 20120111166
    Abstract: It is intended to improve work efficiency by eliminating the work of attaching and removing push rods during installing and dismounting the a blade mount and also to reduce abrasion of the push rods for pushing punching scrap out of a punching blade. The first push rods 18 are inserted movably in the first through-holes 16 formed in the knife cylinder and the second push rods 36 are inserted movably in the second through-holes 34 formed in the blade mount to permit the second push rods 36 to be abutted on the first push rods 18. A scrap push lever 30 is mounted on the outer end of the second push rod 36 to push out the punching scrap a and an eccentric cylinder 14 is provided inside of the knife cylinder 10 to push the first push rod 18 outward when pushing out the punching scrap a. The stroke of the first push rod 18 is controlled so that the outer end 18a of the first push rod 18 does not project from the outer periphery 10a of the knife cylinder.

  • Patent number: 5273270
    Abstract: In a driving device for a plate-shaped body feeding kicker, a durability of a slide section is improved and mixing of paper powder onto a slide surface can be prevented by supporting a rear end of a screw shaft for moving the kicker by use of a block encompassed by a guide cylinder. In more particular, a front end of a screw shaft for reciprocating a kicker is supported by a slider similarly to the driving device in the prior art, but the rear end of the screw shaft is supported by slidably encompassing a slide piece mounted to the screw shaft by means of a guide cylinder. Especially, the slide piece is held within the guide cylinder as immersed in oil.
