Abstract: A base plate (1) includes a fixed surface and a radiating surface which is a surface opposite to the fixed surface. An insulating substrate (3) is bonded to the fixed surface of the base plate (1). Conductive patterns (4,5) are provided on the insulating substrate (3). Semiconductor chips (7,8) are bonded to the conductive pattern (4). An Al wire (12) connects top surfaces of the semiconductor chip (8) to the conductive pattern (5). The insulating substrate (3), the conductive patterns (4 ,5), the semiconductor chips (7 to 10) and the Al wires (11 to 13) are sealed with resin (16). The base plate (1) includes a metal part (19) and a reinforcing member (20) provided in the metal part (19). A Young's modulus of the reinforcing member (20) is higher than a Youngs modulus of the metal part (19).

Abstract: Doctor blade assembly for rotogravure printing units, having a support structure for a doctor blade, a holding device of the support structure and a moving device for moving the holding device. The holding device includes a mounting suitable to fix either a chambered doctor blade or a non-chambered doctor blade to the moving device.

Abstract: A cylinder, which is part of an inking system or of a dampening system, has a rotary individual drive which is embodied as a drive motor. A changeable drive is also provided. The rotary drive is driven by the drive motors by a bevel or angular gear.

Abstract: A roller support apparatus includes a compression coil spring, lever, bias canceling member, roller holder, and support. The compression coil spring biases the distribution roller in a direction to come close to the oscillating roller. The lever transmits a biasing force of the compression coil spring to the distribution roller. The bias canceling member cancels bias of the compression coil spring. The roller holder rotatable supports the distribution roller and pivots in accordance with movement of the lever. The support is provided to the roller holder and engages with a shaft portion of the distribution roller. The support brings the outer surface of the distribution roller into contact with the outer surface of the oscillating roller in accordance with pivot motion of the roller holder.

Abstract: An ink fountain device includes a fountain roller, a blade, a pair of ink dams, a compression coil spring, and a fountain roller moving device. The fountain roller is rotatably supported by an eccentric bearing. The blade is arranged close to the fountain roller. The distal end of the blade forms a clearance, with respect to an outer surface of the fountain roller, where ink is to be supplied. The pair of ink dams are arranged to be substantially perpendicular to the blade and oppose each other in an axial direction of the fountain roller, and are supported to be movable toward and away from the outer surface of the fountain roller. The compression coil spring biases the ink dams to move toward the outer surface of the fountain roller. The fountain roller moving device pivots the eccentric bearing so as to move the fountain roller.

Abstract: An ink chamber doctor, bearing two doctor blades that are arranged in the shape of a roof can be placed in position at an anilox roller of a printing machine and moved away from the same. To guarantee that the central plane of the ink chamber doctor always agrees with a diametral plane of the anilox roller so that the result is a uniform wearing of the doctor blades, the side faces of the strip-shaped housing of the ink chamber doctor bear guide means, which can be used in guides of the side members. The ink chamber doctor can be slid in the guides at least in its end region facing the anilox roller up to its positioning at said anilox roller in a plane that includes both the central plane of the ink chamber doctor and also the axis of the anilox roller. Furthermore, means for pressing the ink chamber doctor against the anilox roller and/or for holding the ink chamber doctor at the anilox roller are envisaged.
