Patent AU-1625399-A (AU)
Title: Job token printer assignment system
Inventor: SCHWARZ JAMES K JR
IPC: B41J29/38
Filed: 1998-12-04
Abstract: A client provides a job ticket token to a print server, which contains the profile of a print job to be printed. The print server parses the job ticket token, determines an appropriate printer for the print job, and returns a selected printer token to the client, that includes the network address and name of the selected printer. The client then sends the print job, accompanied by the selected printer token, to the appropriate printer. In this way, the print job is assigned to a proper printer for the print job by the print server. One advantage of the job token printer assignment system is that the print server does not see the print job, but merely the job ticket token of the print job. Accordingly, the print server does not have to spool a large print job, but merely has to identify the characteristics contained in the job ticket token, and assign the print job to an appropriate printer. Further, because the print job is not transferred to the print server, but merely from the client to the printer, the network does not have to carry the print job twice.

Preferably, a fluid-actuated piston-and-cylinder assembly 54 is supported between each weight and the corresponding shaft for selectively carrying out the shifting movement of the weights. However, other types of shifting mechanisms could also be employed.

Patent AU-2754597-A (AU)
Title: In-die tapping tool
Inventor: MAYNARD SCOTT D
IPC: B23B47/02
Filed: 1997-06-26
Abstract: An in-die tapping tool having particular application to a progressive die method for threading holes in a sheet metal workpiece. The tapping includes a transmission system comprising a threaded shaft assembly and a planetary roller nut. The roller nut is adapted to move axially along the shaft assembly in response to an impact force applied to the tapping tool during the downstroke of the press. The movement of the roller nut causes the shaft assembly to rotate, which rotation is imparted to a threaded lead screw to cause the lead screw to simultaneously rotate and ride axially along a threaded wall of a hollow cylindrical body. The rotational and axial movements of the lead screw through the cylindrical body are transferred to the tap to correspondingly induce a rotation and advancement of the tap towards the workpiece having the holes to be threaded. However, the axial location of the rotatable shaft assembly relative to the workpiece remains unchanged.

Title: Apparatus and method for automatically positioning valve means
IPC: B65G43/00
Filed: 1992-10-08
Abstract: A continuous motion cylindrical can decorator is provided with mandrels that receive undecorated cans and a deco chain that carries decorated cans through a curing oven. The mandrels are mounted along the periphery of a continuously rotating carrier. Chain speed is much slower than linear mandrel speed and spacing between pins on the chain is much less than spacing between mandrels. Interposed between the chain and the mandrel carrier is a continuously rotating transfer carrier having a plurality of suction holding devices thereto. As the holding devices move through a transfer region they are in single file and receive cans that are blown from the mandrels. In the transfer region mandrel linear speed is substantially greater than linear speed of the holding devices, and spacing between the latter is much less than spacing between the mandrels. Valving that controls application of pressurized air to unload the mandrels is positioned by a servo such that the valving opens automatically at a more upstream position for the mandrels as mandrel carrier speed increases.
