Patent EP-0315817-A3 (EP)
Title: Screen-printing machine
IPC: B41F15/46
Filed: 1988-10-22
Abstract: Known screen printing machines, which have a continuous support for the squeegee, have the disadvantage that the printing is impaired when the support bends. This also applies to constructions with a squeegee support which is independent of the support and the weight of which, in the case of an asymmetrical squeegee arrangement, results in an uneven loading of the squeegee. According to the invention, the support is therefore disposed rigidly at the guide rails, and pneumatic double-action cylinders are arranged directly at the support, the squeegee being fastened at the cylinders so that its angle can be adjusted. A bending off the support does not influence the printing quality, even if the squeegee is not arranged in the center of the support.

Patent EP-0289477-A3 (EP)
IPC: D21F3/02
Filed: 1988-04-27
Abstract: Method and device for pressing and dewatering 
a paper web (W). In the method a hot-pressing stage is 
utilized, wherein the wet paper web (W) is pressed in 
direct contact with a cylinder face (10′) that has been 
heated to a temperature higher than 100°C. In a pre­
heating-pressing stage a relatively long pressing time 
and a relatively low compression pressure are used. In 
this preliminary stage the surface layer placed facing 
the face (10′) that heats the paper web (W) is heated to 
a temperature higher than 100°C. In the stage following 
the said stage, the compression pressure (P₁ → p o ) 
applied to the paper web (W) is lowered so that the 
vaporization of the water present in the paper web (W) 
is intensified. After the preceding stage (b), the 
web (W) is passed substantially immediately to an 
intensive nip-pressing stage (C₁;E₂), in which it is 
pressed with a peak pressure (p max ,p max2 ) by one order 
higher, so that water vapour is blown through the 
paper web (W), thereby causing some of the water present 
in the intermediate spaces between the fibres in the web 
(W) to be blown out and intensified dewatering.
