Title: Printing mechanism
Inventor: KOCH ULF
IPC: B41K1/10
Filed: 1987-09-30
Granted: 1988-09-08
Abstract: A printing mechanism is described comprising a plurality of type carriers (12, 34) which on their outer peripheral face carry in one region printing types and in another region indicator types (44). The printing types can be brought into a printing position by turning the type carriers (12, 34). A setting means (32, 20, 24) including an actuating knob (32) can be brought into a drive connection with each of the type carriers (12, 34) for rotation thereof. Stop means (100, 102, 104, 106, 110) limit the turning travel of the type carriers (12, 34). Detent elements (96) hold the actuating knob against rotation relative to the type carrier (12, 34) which is in drive connection with the setting means (32, 20, 24), with a detent moment governed by the spring hardness of the detent elements. The spring hardness and thus the detent moment are determined so that when a moment is applied greater than the detent moment, rotation is permitted between the actuation knob and the type carrier, and when a moment is applied, there is no relative rotation between the actuation knob and the type carrier, and the type carrier is turned.

Patent AU-732188-B2 (AU)
Title: Noninvasive devices, methods, and systems for shrinking of tissues
Inventor: INGLE FRANK
IPC: A61B18/00
Filed: 1998-08-12
Granted: 2001-04-12
Abstract: The invention provides improved devices, methods, and systems for shrinking of collagenated tissues, particularly for treating urinary incontinence in a noninvasive manner by directing energy to a patient's own support tissues. This energy heats fascia and other collagenated support tissues, causing them to contract. The energy can be applied intermittently, often between a pair of large plate electrodes having cooled flat electrode surfaces, the electrodes optionally being supported by a clamp structure. Such cooled plate electrodes are capable of directing electrical energy through an intermediate tissue and into fascia while the cooled electrode surface prevents injury to the intermediate tissue, particularly where the electrode surfaces are cooled before, during, and after an intermittent-heating cycle. Ideally, the plate electrode comprises an electrode array including discrete electrode surface segments so that the current flux can be varied to selectively target the fascia. Alternatively, chilled "liquid electrodes" may direct current through a selected portion of the bladder (or other body cavity) while also cooling the bladder wall, an insulating gas can prevent heating of an alternative bladder portion and the adjacent tissues, and/or ultrasound transducers direct energy through an intermediate tissue and into fascia with little or no injury to the intermediate tissue. Cooled electrodes may be used to chill an intermediate engaged tissue so as to cause the maximum temperature difference between the target tissue and the intermediate tissue prior to initiating RF heating. This allows the dimensions of tissue reaching the treatment temperature to be controlled and/or minimized, the dimensions of protected intermediate tissue to be maximized, and the like.

Abstract: On a web offset or web letterpress printing machine, to ensure ganging of the paper webs (P1 - P4) to be folded and cut into newspapers (16), the positions of the main and subsidiary registers (5, 7) are controlled by positioning motors (Ml - M4) in dependence on positioning signals (SM1 - SM4). Over each funnel inlet guide roll (10), four photo-cells (11) are arranged beside each other with uniform spacing and detect brightness signals (HAl - HD4) at a sampling frequency of 20 kHz from the printed surface of the paper webs. These brightness signals are subjected to Fourier analysis in a microprocessor. The fundamental vibration is evaluated, the vibration of greatest amplitude being selected from the four fundamental vibrations of each paper web. The phase position signal associated with the selected fundamental vibration is used to calculate one of the positioning signals (SM1 - SM4). In this way, the cutting position of the paper webs (P1 - P4) can be determined without registration marks being applied to them.
