Title: Apparatus for stripping scrap from die cut blanks.
Inventor: MARSCHKE CARL R
IPC: B31B1/14
Filed: 1990-09-18
Abstract: An apparatus for stripping the scrap portion from a die cut blank includes a stripper pin carrier providing a pattern of stripper pins supported in a resilient compressible material layer in which the stripper pins are demountably embedded. The stripper pins may be inserted into the reslient layer to provide a pattern or patterns which will accommodate virtually any size, shape and location of scrap portions to be stripped from a blank. The stripper pins can be removed and reinserted in a different pattern to accommodate a different run of blanks of corrugated paperboard or the like. Programmable robotic control may be used for pin placement and removal. The stripper pin pattern, location and rotation are synchronized with operation of the upstream cutting die such that the die cut blanks move continuously under the stripper roll for automatic scrap stripping. A unique positive stripping apparatus includes a resilient soft-covered roll beneath the blank at the point of stripping and into which the leading edge of the scrap portion is pressed by the stripper pins on the upper rotary pin-carrying roll. Supplemental indexing of the stripper pin carrier is utilized to assure fresh pin placement areas in the resilient material layer to eliminate inaccuracies in pin placement or poor pin retention because of material wear through repeated use.

Abstract: An essentially passive and "fuel-less" method for inverting the orientation of a preferably nutationally stable, dual spin spacecraft (10) disposed in an inclined orbit, includes the steps of increasing the rotational speed of (i.e., "spinning up") the spacecraft's despun platform (20) and decreasing the rotational speed of (i.e., "spinning down") the spacecraft's rotor  (16), to thereby generate, via product of inertia coupling, a transverse torque of sufficient magnitude to temporarily destabilize the spacecraft and cause the spacecraft spin axis (12), which is the minimum moment of inertia axis of the spacecraft, to diverge and precess through a flat spin orientation and towards a final, inverted orientation, e.g., disposed at a precession angle of 180° relative to the initial orientation of the spacecraft spin axis. Normally, prior to the spacecraft spin axis reaching the final, inverted orientation, the spin axis encounters and is "stuck at" a barrier nutation angle beyond which further precession of the spacecraft spin axis is not possible without the implementation of a final acquisition procedure, which includes the steps of detecting the occurrence of the spin axis reaching the barrier nutation angle, and in response thereto, instituting limit cycle rotational motion of the platform, to thereby render non-secular the rotational motion of the platform, whereby the spacecraft damping system is brought into its pull-in or effective operating range for penetrating the barrier nutation angle, in order to achieve acquisition of the final inverted orientation of the spacecraft spin axis. Limit cycle rotation of the platform is preferably effectuated by means of applying a first and a second series of torquing pulses to the spacecraft despin motor suitable for reducing the rotational speed of the platform, the first series of pulses being of larger magnitude than that of the second series of pulses.

Abstract: A multi-component heat shield (10) is provided. The shield includes at least one heat insulating component (12) and at least one heat reflecting component (14) having different coefficients of thermal expansion. The insulating and reflecting components are arranged with at least a portion of one of the insulating component's surfaces (20) in registration with at least a portion of one of the reflecting component's surfaces (24). Movement of the components relative to one another is restricted at selected positions while the movement of the components is unrestrained between these positions. As heat is applied to the shield, the component with the greater coefficient of thermal expansion tends to expand at a greater rate than the component having the lower coefficient of thermal expansion. The stress which develops in the shield due to the restriction of the components at the selected positions is accompanied by changes in the spacing between the components.

Abstract: A multilumen catheter (10) having a distal portion with a soft tip and reduced cross-section. The multilumen catheter (10) of the present invention includes a flexible, elongated first catheter tube (18) and a flexible, elongated, dual-lumen catheter tube (20) which has first and second lumens (30,32) integrally formed and is disposed within the first catheter tube (18). The cross-section of the dual-lumen catheter tube (20) is smaller than that of the first catheter tube (18) and therefore, an independent, single lumen (24) is defined in the space between the first catheter tube (18) and the dual-lumen catheter tube (20). The dual-lumen catheter tube (20) extends beyond the distal end of the first catheter tube (18) thereby providing an overall reduced cross-section of the distal portion of the present multilumen catheter (10). Furthermore, the dual-lumen catheter tube (20) may be formed from a softer material than that of the first catheter tube (18) thereby providing a softer distal portion of the present multilumen catheter (10). A protective hub (40) encapsulates and secures the proximal ends of the first and dual-lumen catheter tubes (18,20), and facilitates fluid communication between each of the lumens and fluid transfer devices.
