Abstract: A device is provided which is usable to draw at least one web of material or at least one web strand, that includes several webs of material, into a folding apparatus. The folding apparatus includes at least an upper structure, at least one folding funnel and a cross cutting device for separating the web of material, which has been transported in the upper structure and folded on the folding funnel, into individual products. At least one guide rail is provided. A holding part with a guiding end of at least one web of material fixed thereto, is displaceably guided on a path of web travel of the web through the upper structure. At least one guide rail is provided along the folding funnel.

Abstract: A computer-implemented method and system for building a neural network is disclosed. The neural network predicts at least one target based upon predictor variables defined in a state space. First, an input data set is retrieved that includes the predictor variables and at least one target associated with the predictor variables for each observation. In the state space, a number of points is inserted in the state space based upon the values of the predictor variables. The number of points is less than the number of observations. A statistical measure is determined that describes a relationship between the observations and the inserted points. Weights and activation functions of the neural network are determined using the statistical measure.

Abstract: A web of material is drawn into a printing press. A part of the tip of the web, which is laterally projecting over the edge of the web, is separated lengthwise at least once by the use of a slitting device. A device for accomplishing the drawing in of the web is also disclosed.

Abstract: A printed, endless web is transversely cut by the cooperation of a cutting blade cylinder and a sheet gripping cylinder that also carries cutting blocks. If the web that is to be cut, is noted as having a defect, for example in the printing applied to it, the cutting blades can be withdrawn into the cutting blade cylinder and the deflective web can be diverted away from the folding apparatus.

Abstract: Signatures are extracted from a folding apparatus of a web-fed rotary printing press. These signatures are extracted by an optionally switchable shunt that is arranged adjacent a cylinder of the folding apparatus. The folding apparatus is connected to a comminuting device.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for drawing in a material web (33, 34, 36, 37) according to which the part (59) of the tip (41) laterally projecting over the lateral edge (42) of the material web is separated lengthwise at least once by means of a slitting device (21). The invention also relates to a corresponding device for carrying out the method.

Abstract: A longitudinal folding device includes formers for longitudinally forming and folding paper webs having different widths. Each former, together with its folding rollers, hopper roller and longitudinal cutting device is supported in a frame such that the former can be displaced in the axial directions of both the folding rollers and the hopper roller.

Abstract: Paper web sections which may have been produced by longitudinally cutting a wide paper web, and which are being fed in a production direction, are laterally shifted with respect to that production direction. The web sections are fed within a device for deflecting the paper webs transversely from the left and from the right, with respect to the machine production direction. Two upper 45° deflection devices are supported by lateral side frames and can be displaced horizontally transversely to the machine production direction. Each of these two upper deflection devices has a lower surface that lies in a horizontal plane and the two horizontal planes have different heights.

Abstract: A roller or a cylinder of a rotary printing press is cleaned using a liquid. A carriage is movable back and forth along the roller or cylinder. A supply container carries a clean liquid in a specified amount. A dirty liquid is returned to a receptacle. The clean and dirty liquids are supplied to, and removed from, the carriage when it is in a parked position.

Abstract: The invention relates to a device for the transverse cutting of a web, whereby the cutting blades can be optionally withdrawn to allow, for example, a spoil-generating web to be diverted from a folding apparatus without problems.

Abstract: A device for cleaning a roller in a rotary printing press uses a plurality of rotating brushes. Spray nozzles are arranged centrally in each of these rotating brushes. The brushes are supported on a carriage that can be moved along the length of the roller which is to be cleaned.

Abstract: Dihydronaphthalene compounds have excellent 17&agr;-hydroxylase/C17-20-lyase inhibiting activity, thromboxan A2 synthesis inhibiting activity, and aromatase inhibiting activity and are thereby are useful as preventive and/or therapeutic agents for various male sex hormone- and female sex hormone-dependent diseases such as prostate cancer, prostatomegaly, masculinization, breast cancer, mastopathy, uterine cancer, endometriosis, and ovarian cancer, as well as myocardial infarction, angina pectoris, and bronchial asthma.

Abstract: A former is used to fold webs longitudinally. During the web drawing-in process, the individually incoming paper webs in a group of paper webs are conveyed smoothly to a folding mechanism at the end of the former. This is accomplished by using a number of upper and lower transport elements which are located above and next to each other at least inside the boundaries of the upper surface of the former. These upper and lower transport elements can be brought together and can be separated. They can be driven as desired.

Abstract: The invention relates to a device for deflecting paper web sections that are produced by longitudinally cutting a wide paper web or that are fed in the machine direction of production. These paper web sections are fed within said device transversely to the machine direction, namely transversely from the left and transversely from the right with respect to the machine direction. Two upper 45° (13, 14) deflection devices are provided between devices mounted between lateral stands (06, 07) and can be displaced manually or by means of a motor in the horizontal direction, either individually or jointly along the transverse machine directions, the lowest surface lines of said deflection devices lying in horizontal planes that have different heights.
