Abstract: The invention relates to an apparatus for horizontal centring and self-locking clamping of moulds, which are introduced in horizonal or vertical working position horizontally or vertically into the mould cavity of an injection-moulding machine, which cavity is bounded by a fixed and a movable platen (1). The platens (1) are connected or can be connected by tie bars (2) and the moulds (3, 11) are releasably fastened by clamping wedges (4), moved by drives (10). The object of the invention is to provide a solution in which the platens (1) and the moulds (3, 11) do not have any protruding centring and clamping elements during mould changing. For this purpose, at least four clamping wedges (4) are recessed at an angle of inclination  alpha into the platens parallel to two opposite outer edges, at the spacing of the Euromap hole pattern and flush with the mounting surface (7). On the mounting surfaces of the moulds (3) or the adaptor plates (11) there are at least two splines (8) arranged at the same angle of inclination parallel to each outer edge of the platens (1) in such a way that the clamping wedges which can be extended by drives (10) can be moved into the splines. It is advantageous to arrange the clamping wedges (4) and drives (10) in modules (9) which for their part are recessed into the platens (1). <IMAGE>

Abstract: An image forming apparatus forms image information by introducing a light beam (6) emitted from a light source (1) and deflected by a light deflecting device (4) to the surface (7) of an image carrying member (10) through an optical image forming system (5) and then by scanning the surface of the image carrying member using that light beam. The surface (7) to be scanned of the image carrying member (10) is shaped into a form which corresponds to the optical characteristics of the optical forming system. Consequently, the resultant image forming apparatus has a simple structure and is capable of forming high definition images.

Abstract: An oxygen delignification method and apparatus in which a charge of heated wood pulp is reacted with oxygen in the presence of a charge of caustic soda in a plurality of reaction stages 28, 30 and 32 which alternate with mixing stages 22, 24 and 26 in which caustic is mixed with the wood pulp. The use of the plurality of mixing stages reduces peak pH exposure of the wood pulp that would otherwise occur if the charges of caustic soda and wood pulp were mixed all at once. Moreover, the caustic soda mixed in such manner replenishes neutralized caustic soda and ensures that the average pH level is increased above that in conventional oxygen delignification. The increase in average pH level favours an increase in the delignification. Effluent liquor from a reacted wood pulp washing stage 24 is introduced into the mixing stages 22, 24 and 26 to prevent wood pulp degradation. Oxygen is mixed within the wood pulp by a wood pulp mixer that employs coaxial perforate passageways between which the wood pulp is retained and driven but which allow the oxygen to pass in an inward radial direction of the passageways to mix with the wood pulp.
