Date Nov. 7, 1996A sheet brake improves laying sheets off onto a stack in the take-off unit of a sheet-fed rotary printing press. The sheet brake is provided with a crank drive that generates a back-and-forth stroke by way of a synchronized drive mechanism at the rate traveled by the sheets. The rear portion of each sheet is forced by suction against a suction strip provided on the brake so that the sheet is braked while being stretched and then lowered onto the top of the stack. The suction strip has a groove arranged such that the sheet is braked and stretched as the suction strip works in conjunction with an operation of a take over gripper to accurately guide the sheet to the stack.

Abstract: A method and apparatus (20) for forming coreless rolls (15) of pressure sensitive adhesive tape involves the use of a mandrel assembly (55) having a specific circumferential tape supporting segment (234) thereon for winding tape. The circumferential tape supporting segment (234) has a tape engaging surface portion (246) that, in a radial orientation, is compressible yet sufficiently stiff to support the tape as it is successively wound about the mandrel (55) to form a tape roll (15), and that is sufficiently pliant to permit ready axial removal of a wound tape roll (15) from the mandrel (55). The innermost wrap (72) of pressure sensitive adhesive tape about the mandrel (55) is masked by an adhesive liner (73). That liner (73) is formed from one portion of a liner/tab strip (123) which had been applied to the tape previously, and prior to winding, the tape is severed, and the remainder of that liner/tab (76) forms an end tab on the outermost end (75) of the previously formed coreless tape roll (15). The liner/tab strip (123) is applied by advancing the liner/tab material (90) laterally across the advancing web of pressure sensitive tape (26) adjacent a first, adhesive bearing side (27) thereof, cutting the liner/tab material (90) to a length approximating the width of the web (26), urging the leading lateral edge portion (190) of the cut liner/tab strip (123) against the first, adhesive bearing side (27) of the advancing web (26) and urging the remainder of the liner/tab strip (123) against the advancing web (26) as the web (26) carries the liner/tab strip (123) away.

Abstract: A method is disclosed for producing a polymer material whose room temperature conductivity exceeds 106 S/cm. In a preferred embodiment the material is produced in the form of a film having thickness less than 100  mu m. Conduction takes place through threads passing through the film which is otherwise a dielectric. The film is produced by first depositing a macromolecular polymer substance on a substrate. During preparation, the substance must be in a viscose liquid state. Stable free electrons (polarons) are then created by ionizing the substance. This is assisted by exposure to UV radiation and the presence of strong polar groups in the polymer. Various techniques, such as applying a strong electric field, are then used to join the polarons together into conducting threads within the medium. To stabilize the conductivity, the medium is then solidified by cooling it below its glassing point or inducing cross-linking between the macromolecules.

Abstract: A system and method for transmitting a radio frequency (RF) signal in a RF bandwidth over a low bandwidth medium, e.g., in-building cabling, which has a transmission bandwidth below the RF bandwidth. The system has a unit for receiving the RF signal and a global reference oscillator for distributing a global reference tone of high stability to the entire system. Local oscillators are controlled by adjustment signals derived from this global reference tone to deliver RF reference tones of high stability required for mixing the RF signal to obtain an intermediate frequency (IF) signal which is fed through the low bandwidth medium. The global reference tone is preferably delivered through the same low bandwidth medium to desired locations, such as remote coverage sites in a network for cellular communications, cordless telephony, local RF communications, interactive multi-media video, high bit-rate local communications.

Abstract: The method for continuous vertical casting of metals in a casting installation with several moulds is characterised by the fact that the melt level (N) during the mould filling process between the initial level (No) at the initial time (to) and the start level (Ns) at the start time (ts) is regulated in all moulds simultaneously and as a function of the time (t) according to a target value curve N=f(t) which is identical for all moulds. The slope of this curve within a region (A) adjacent to the initial level (No) is greater than the mean slope between the initial and start levels, while in a region (B) adjacent to the start level (Ns) it is smaller than the mean slope.
