Patent EP-0110138-A3 (EP)
Title: Device for exchanging printing formes in an offset printing press
IPC: B41L29/16
Filed: 1983-10-26
Abstract: Plate changing apparatus for use with offset printing machines, including a plate stacking table, plate individualizing means for sequentially withdrawing only the lowermost plate from the stacking table, and plate transporting and guiding means to guide the freshly withdrawn plate to a form cylinder of the printing machine after having passed through a fixing bath. The apparatus includes means to pass the separated plate through a fixing bath prior to its deposit on the form cylinder and a depository for used plates removed from the form cylinder. The novelty resides in the individualizing means including a rotatable vacuum roll disposed adjacent a partly open bottom surface of the plate stacking table or container or tray holding the plates so that it can engage the lowermost plate. The vacuum roll has its shaft mounted in parallel with the leading edge of the plate stack for linear displacement in parallel with the bottom stack surface. A fixing bath container is disposed directly below the plate stack and the individualizing means and adjacent the form cylinder. This arrangement results in a particularly compact construction while enabling the plates to be handled carefully.

Patent EP-0134672-A3 (EP)
IPC: F02D41/14
Filed: 1984-07-18
Abstract: A system for the control of the air-fuel ratio in an internal 
combustion engine incorporates an electronic control unit, a 
sensor of exhaust emissions and a valve for metering fuel 
with air to control the air-fuel ratio. The electronic control 
unit provides for the comparison of the successive measure­
ments of the sensor output voltage under conditions wherein 
the fuel valve is being operated for ever increasing richness 
or leaness until such time as the differential measurement 
drops below a predetermined amount. An offset voltage is 
then subtracted from or added to this voltage to calculate an 
operating set point voltage. Thereby, the system's accuracy 
is maintained through the compensation for changed sensor 
characteristics with aging.

Abstract: Method and device for igniting a welding arc for an arc 
welding apparatus by means of a high voltage discharge 
between a welding electrode (E) with a series connected 
smoothing coil (G) and a workpiece (A). An ignition winding 
(T) with substantially fewer turns than the smoothing coil (G)

coil and achieve a spark ignition of the arc through said high 
voltage discharge. In synchronism with said abrupt current 
break, the current source is preferably switched to conduct 
current through the smoothing coil, the welding electrode 
and the high voltage discharge, thereby facilitating the 
ignition of the arc during the discharge. The high voltage 
discharge and the optional current through said discharge 
are preferably given the same polarity as the intended 
welding arc.
