Abstract: A printing machine includes a support stand, a plate rotational with respect to the stand about an axis of rotation, elements for driving the plate in rotation, at least two mandrels for holding two articles to be printed in succession, the mandrels being carried by the plate, elements for driving the mandrels in rotation about axes of rotation parallel to the axis of rotation of the plate, and a plurality of workstations distributed around the rotational plate. The machine includes elements for the displacement of each mandrel in a plane parallel to the plane of the plate, in order to modify the spacing between the axis of rotation of the mandrel and the axis of rotation of the plate. The elements for the displacement of the mandrels are designed to synchronize the displacement of each mandrel with the rotation of the plate.

Abstract: A heat-sensitive stencil including a thermoplastic resin film on which a porous resin layer and a porous reinforcing layer are formed in succession. A porous fibrous layer may be disposed between the porous resin layer and the porous reinforcing layer.

Abstract: A dual purpose stencil-forming sheet is provided comprising an ink-pervious fibrous tissue base having an ink-impervious impregnant therethrough, which impregnant is relatively non-bleeding and contains a red pigment. In a composite where the stencil-forming sheet is in contact with a white or pastel underlying backing sheet, the striking of a key or pin onto the stencil-forming sheet through a black inked ribbon simultaneously cuts the stencil, leaves a black marking on the cut stencil and leaves a red marking on the white or pastel backing sheet.

Abstract: This invention relates to a circulating multi-forming continuous printing machine and in particular to one including a number of several printing mechanisms with each a belt type printing roller, and being arrayed in a parallel type configuration, and working synchronously, a rolling cutter which is installed behind the printing machine mentioned above and used for cutting paper, one paper feeding table which is next to the rolling cutter, and the surface is a tilting plane which inclines at a certain angle, a number of aluminum sheets being disposed thereon, a plurality of pairs of roller wheels being mounted on opposing sides of each of the aluminum sheets at an appropriate distance, and where one of each pair of roller wheels being larger than the other, a number of collecting plates which are designed to be tilting planes having a slot therethrough, and a number of movable collecting rods which are installed among the collecting plates.
