Abstract: A folding score having a pair of laterally spaced, parallel scoring grooves which are individually asymmetrical. This invention also relates to a method and apparatus for forming the folding score.
Abstract: A system for forming a foldable printed substrate includes a creasing system that applies a plurality of creases to the substrate along a first axis. It also applies a plurality of creases to the substrate along a second axis that is angled with respect to the first axis. Each creases is applied in a manner that does not ablate the substrate. The system also may include a cutting system to yield a foldable substrate such as a carton, sleeve, or box. It also may include a printing system to generate a printed, foldable substrate.

Abstract: A folding score having a pair of laterally spaced, parallel scoring grooves which are individually asymmetrical. This invention also relates to a method and apparatus for forming the folding score.
Abstract: A heat-insulating container is used for an instant dried food and is excellent in heat-insulating property, design and economy. The container comprises a paper cup body with a bottom, which has an inner surface coated with a polyolefin resin and is provided with an outward curled portion formed at an upper opening end of the cup body and at least one horizontal rib formed on a side wall of the cup body so as to project outward therefrom; and an inverse-frustoconical paper sleeve provided with an inward curled portion formed at a lower end of the sleeve. The cup body and the sleeve are integrally combined with each other so that an upper end of the sleeve is joined to an outer periphery of the side wall of the cup body, which is adjacent to the outward curled portion of the cup body, and an inner surface of the inward curled portion of the sleeve is joined to an outer periphery of a lower portion of the side wall of the cup body.
Abstract: The present invention relates to a folding machine for folding the side flaps flanking the middle section of a foldable cardboard blank. For this purpose in the frontal area of the folding machine auxiliary folding devices are arranged. In addition turning belts for the inward tilting of the side flaps can be arranged, which are provided with projections insuring that the side flaps are swung parallelly to their folding grooves.
Abstract: An improved method of preventing cohesion between plastic coated, paperboard, folding carton blanks after they come off a die cutter or cutting section of a press. The method comprises providing different scoring patterns for the carton blanks of alternate rows as the cartons are formed, which results in the creation of air spaces between adjacent cartons to prevent them from sticking to each other.

Abstract: There is provided an apparatus for applying constant pressure to a knife blade for crush-scoring, wherein the knife blade is supported in a substantially frictionless manner and the constant pressure is supplied by a flexible diaphragm acting on a plunger which can move substantially without friction in a pneumatic cylinder.
Abstract: A packing laminate which is intended to be converted into packing containers is often provided with crease lines in order to facilitate folding and shaping. At the places where crease lines cross each other a multiple folding of the laminate takes place on conversion into packing containers which, among other things, means that small cracks are formed in the different material layers, so that the tightness of the packing container is put into jeopardy. In accordance with the invention, a packing laminate is proposed in which these difficulties are overcome by providing the laminate with specially designed auxiliary crease lines which in the region of the laminate, where the folding lines cross each other or meet, replace the (main) crease line guiding the folding line. The auxiliary crease lines are situated at such a distance from the main crease line that the folding line is not affected, that is to say, the folding line will after folding not coincide in any part with the auxiliary crease lines.
Abstract: Improved creasing machine, particularly for use in industry of cardboard articles and packages, comprising a sliding creasing roller and a fixed or stationary counter-roller, wherein the creasing roller is driven by the pistons of pneumatic, hydraulic or fluid-dynamic cylinders having the same axis of translation but different stroke.
