摘要:
A PRODUCT SUITABLE FOR USE AS A TOP SHEET FOR PRINTING PRESSES HAVING A BASE LAYER OF A DIMENSIONALLY STABLE, FLEXIBLE, POLYMERIC SHEET SUBSTANCE (E.G. POLYETHYLENE TEREPHTHALATE) AND A WORKING SURFACE OF AN ELASTOMERIC SUBSTANCE HAVING A MODULUS OF AT LEAST 420 P.S.I. AT 300% ELONGATION (E.G. POLYURETHANE). A RESILIENT, COMPRESSIBLE BACKING (E.G. A POROUS ELASTOMER-IMPREGNATED, FELTED FIBROUS SHEET) CNA BE ADHESIVELY SECURED TO THE BASE LAYER TO ABSORB VIBRATION OCCURRING IN THE PRINTING OPERATION.

FLEXIBLE LAMINATED PRODUCTS SUCH AS PRINTING BLANKETS, BELTS, AND THE LIKE OF EXCEPTIONALLY HIGH TENSILE STRENGTH ARE MADE BY LAYING HELICALLY WOUND, CONTINUOUS REINFORCING CORDS IN WHAT IS ESSENTIALLY A SCREW THREAD OR THREADS EXTENDING BETWEEN THE LATERAL MARGINS. A GUIDE WHICH AUTOMATICALLY LAYS THE CORD IN THE HELICAL GROOVE BEARS TEETH ENGAGING THE GROOVES ON THE BASE PLY. GROOVES ARE DEEP ENOUGH TO HOUSE THE CORD. WALLS BETWEEN SUCCESSIVE TURNS ARE THICK ENOUGH TO INSULATE THE CORDS AND PREVENT ABRASIVE CONTACT. THE PRODUCT IF FINISHED BY A TOP PLY LAID OVER THE WOUND CARCASS.
摘要:
A rotary vulcanizing machine, particularly designed for the production of textile, letter-press and screen-print blankets. The compression belt, a glass cord reinforced rubber blanket, operates over small diameter (12 inches) rolls, and is tensioned by the thrust of hydraulic cylinders. The heated curing roll can be withdrawn from the machine and slid onto a wheeled carriage to move out of the way while a blanket to be cured is being dressed on the machine. The high strength of the compacting belt and its flexiblity while producing the same amount of compacting pressure eliminates the necessity of large diameter curing rolls for stainless steel belts saving cost, size, weight and floor space.

A yarn-laying guide designed to place reinforcing yarns in preformed screw threads in the rubber coated cylinder ply of a belt or printing blanket. A foot, preferably formed of polytetrafluoro ethylene, carries a number or teeth, each of which fits into the screw threads of the base ply. The foot is spring pressed. A yarn guide attached to the foot lays the reinforcing strands directly in the screw threads.
摘要:
Volume-compressible products such as printing, coating, and impression rolls are made by enclosing a porous volumecompressible layer formed on a rigid core with an impermeable layer of heat-flowable resilient polymeric material. The assembly is wrapped with a nonshrinking tape, or may be placed in a mold. Vents plugged with a substance having a predetermined melting point are inserted in the porous layer, and lead to the atmosphere. Pressure to cause the polymeric coating layer to flow and consolidate is developed by heating the assembly. Cure, if necessary, is effected by elevating the temperature. At the higher temperature, the plugs melt and open the vent passages, thus avoiding collapse and wrinkling when the product cools.
