Abstract: Examples herein disclose an apparatus for securing or disengaging a blade server in an enclosure. The apparatus includes a worm gear and a cam gear. The worm gear includes a number of threads to interact with a number of teeth on the cam gear. The cam gear includes the number of teeth to interact with the number of threads and a latch. The latch rotates based on the number of threads interacting with the number of teeth such that the rotation secures or disengages the blade server from the enclosure.

Abstract: Methods and apparatus to store fault data and/or status data associated with an integrated circuit (100) into a memristor system (106) are disclosed. An example method includes determining when a fault corresponding to an integrated circuit (100) has occurred, when first data related to the integrated circuit (100) is updated. An example method further includes storing the first data in a first subset of a plurality of resistive elements. An example method further includes, in response to the detection of the fault, storing second data in a second subset of the plurality of resistive elements, the second data corresponding to an error associated with the fault.

Abstract: A printed circuit board (PCB) having a thermal relief pad around at least one via. The thermal relief pad includes at least four thermal cut-outs and at least four conductive bands. The at least four conductive bands are formed between the at least four thermal cut-outs such that adjacent conductive pads are orthogonal to each other. Each pair of mutually opposite conductive bands have substantially equal lengths and each pair of adjacent conductive bands have unequal lengths.

Abstract: In a printed web strip cutting machine, the cutting cylinder is divided diagonally by a formed septum into two isolated chambers. The cylinder is mounted on hollow shafts connected to an exhaust system. Each hollow shaft communicates with only one of the two chambers to draw a current of air into the chamber between the spaced cutting knives. The web support beneath the cylinder has vents to provide air jets to lift the severed strip into the air current between the knives.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for snubbing or kicking down the trailing end portions of cut web portions of paper as such cut web portions are discharged from a first conveyor to a second conveyor traveling at a slower conveying speed than the first conveyor. Specifically, the appartus for such snubbing or kick down has no velocity component in the direction of travel of the cut web portions at the moment of contact and essentially no such velocity component during a period of engagement. By eliminating such velocity component an improved handling of the cut web portions is obtained. From an appartus concept a framework is rotated in synchronism with the apparatus for cutting a traveling paper web and such framework supports an independently rotatable snubber or kick down apparatus.

Abstract: A dampening assembly for a printing press has its components including the water tray, fountain roller and ancillary parts mounted on a frame which is supported from the press frame by means of parallel arms. A piston or comparable device is used to swing the arms about their pivotal connections to the machine frame so as to swing the dampening assembly between an operative elevated position and a lower laterally displaced servicing position to provide access to the interior of the press for quick change-over of the printing plate and for maintenance. The supporting arms are shaped and dimensioned so as to remain parallel to one another as the assembly is moved between its two positions, thereby to maintain the assembly frame and particularly the water tray thereon substantially horizontal to avoid spillage of water.

Abstract: An ink fountain for a printing press includes a fountain roller that is driven intermittently by a variable stroke drive mechanism which is actuated by an eccentric. However, instead of varying the length of linkages between the eccentric and the roller to obtain the variable stroke capability, the present mechanism employs constant length linkages coupled to the fountain roller by way of a wrap-spring overrunning clutch. A stop plate adjustably positioned by a hand wheel is arranged to stop the rotation of the clutch sleeve after it has rotated through a selected angle thereby to disengage the clutch. Thus, as the eccentric rotates, it oscillates the clutch input drum through a constant angle. However, the clutch output drum and therefore the fountain roller are advanced through a stroke angle that is continuously variable depending upon the adjustment of the hand wheel.
