Abstract: A glute press exercise machine including: a four-bar linkage connected to a stationary frame; a rotatable back support connected to the four-bar linkage; a seat connected to the four-bar linkage; and a foot support connected to the stationary frame. A lower portion of the back support extends below the user's hips to support the users hips during a glute press exercise. This lower portion supports at least 10% of the user's weight. In operation, the seat rotates downwardly away from the user's hips during a glute press exercise and then rotates upwardly again to contact the user's bottom between every repetition of the glute press exercise. The four-bar linkage is pivotally connected to the stationary frame at a location near ground level. The foot support is positioned below 25 cm from the ground and extends forwardly beyond the front of the stationary frame.

Abstract: Provided are a roll printing apparatus and a roll printing method using the same. The roll printing apparatus according to the present invention comprises 1) a first cliché stage, 2) a second cliché stage, 3) a pattern transfer unit provided between the first cliché stage and the second cliché stage and comprising a roll type printed film support unit, 4) a first printing unit comprising a first printing roll moving to the pattern transfer unit on the first cliché stage, and 5) a second printing unit comprising a second printing roll moving the pattern transfer unit on the second cliché stage, in which the first cliché stage and the second cliché stage are disposed on the same line and a film substrate is comprised in the roll type printed film support unit. The roll printing apparatus according to the present invention can perform a continuous roll printing, thereby reducing a tack time and as a result, improving productivity.

Abstract: Provided are a method for producing two or more patterned substrates, which has a simple process and is efficient, and an apparatus for producing two or more patterned substrates.

Abstract: A method for forming fine patterns includes (S1) closely contacting a cliche-forming film to a hard mold concavely patterned, thereby making a disposable cliche; (S2) coating an elastic blanket cylinder with ink or resin; (S3) compressing the elastic blanket cylinder to the disposable cliche to remove ink or resin on a surface of the elastic blanket cylinder at a portion contacting with a relatively protruded embossed portion of the disposable cliche; and (S4) transcribing ink or resin remaining on the surface of the elastic blanket cylinder to a substrate. This method allows simple and fast works and greatly reduces costs by adopting a disposable cliche that may be easily installed and removed. Also, this method may be effectively utilized to form a fine pattern of an electronic device or a display device such as color filter and electrode.

Abstract: The present invention employs a light weight fixed bed to support an intaglio plate, and discloses a print roller mounted on a movable trolley which is advanced across the intaglio plate causing the pressure of the print roller to effect the printing. The trolley is fabricated from light weight beams substantially forming the sides of a hollow box beam, and the print roller is stiffened by support of intermediate rollers tied to a trolley beam. This precludes the print roller from flexing under the load presented by the intaglio plate and the associated paper and felt material as the print roller under pressure traverses the plate. This allows the use of a lighter, smaller diameter print roller. Handwheels attached to the trolley provide spring loaded pressure to control the pressure of the print roller on the intaglio plate assembly.

Abstract: A method and a device for printing disc-shaped registration carriers, whereby a print built up of several colors is provided on the registration carrier. Use is made of a printing cylinder, which is moved over a few printing plates, which have been moistened with various colors of ink, whereby the printing cylinder is subsequently rolled over the registration carrier. The device comprises a plurality of processing stations for registration carriers, as well as a transport device by which the disc-shaped registration carriers can be moved from one processing station to the other processing station. One or more processing stations comprise a printing device disposed therein.

Abstract: A flat-bed press having a carriage (4) which includes an ink roller (7) and a blanket (5), and which is adapted to be moved on a press body frame (1) provided with an inking unit (3) at at least one end thereof, characterized in that the press body frame (1) is provided therein with a table (10) on which the materials (12) to be printed are placed, a feed head (21) having suckers (22) for retaining thereon a material (12) to be printed, and a transfer means (23) for moving the feed head (21) and carrying the material (12) to be printed which is retained on the suckers (22) to a paper bed (9).

Abstract: A printing machine that prints on forms or documents from cards having embossed characters thereon takes into account different thicknesses of cards and forms. The machine provides an even pressure downwards.

Abstract: In an off-set printing device suited to multi-colored printing the printing plate support and the printing carrier support are arranged on a common carrier plate between two parallel racks connected with the carrier plate and extending in the printing direction. The printing roller is freely removable from the carrier plate and has at each of its axial ends a spur gear or pinion for engagement with an associated one of the racks, and the roll of the printing roller is freely rotatable relative to a shaft provided with hand grips. On the carrier plate--in the printing direction--in front of the printing plate support and on the printing roller at least one projection and a complementary recess are provided which in the presenting of the printing roller to the carrier plate engage with one another.

Abstract: A printing apparatus including a circular turret for carrying a plurality of flexible membrane collectors thereon. The collectors are hingeably mounted near a peripheral edge of the turret and sequentially engage printing stations for receiving a design portion on one side thereof. The collectors are indexably rotated into a transfer station whereupon they are deployed outboard of the turret. A flexible plunger engages a backside of the collector for stretching the same into engagement with ware for transferring the design from the collector to said ware.
