Definitions

  • each of the printing couples usually comprises an impression cylinder and a blanket cylinder between which the sheet or web to be printed is passed.
  • two blanket offset cylinders may be disposed for rolling engagement to print both sides of the Web passing between them, each acting as an impression cylinder for the other.
  • Each blanket cylinder runs in surface contact with a plate cylinder from which it receives an ink image of the composition or pictorial representation and in turn transfers it to the paper.
  • the lithographic or offset plate is relatively thin and is wrapped around the plate cylinder after its head and tail end portions have been bent at an angle to the major image 'bearing part of the plate. These bent ends are seized by appropriate gripper means recessed within the surface of the cylinder proper.
  • the axis of a plate cylinder may be skewed or canted at a slight angle with respect to its normal position of parallelism with the axis of the related blanket cylinder, Without interference or harm to the normal operation of the printing couple.
  • Such angular adjustment is conveniently made by shifting the bearing point at one end of the plate cylinder about the opposite bearing point as a center, and in a direction which is perpendicular to a plane passing through the normal axes of the two cylinders.
  • the maximum angular shift of one end of the plate cylinder to compensate for the errors in plate alignment and register usually encountered, is well within the limits permitted by hearing considerations and the maintaining of proper rolling impression contact between the two cylinders forming the printing couple.
  • a more specific object of the invention therefore is the provision of novel means for shifting at least one end of the plate cylinder of a press of this general character in a direction and to a degree adequate to compensate for any errors in the accurate rectilinear placement of the printing plate which would otherwise cause misalignment and non-registry of the resulting printed image.
  • the plate cylinder is surrounded and serviced by a plurality of rollers comprising the ink and water supplying systems.
  • there are three ink form rollers in this instance these are in approximate general alignment in a direction perpendicular to the common axial plane of the plate and blanket cylinders, or in other words, in the direction of the proposed shift or skewing of the plate cylinder; and thus a negligible interference with these inking rollers is encountered.
  • the desired shift is more directly opposed to the positions of the water form rollers and some provision must be made for effecting a corresponding displacement of the ends of these water rollers adjacent the shifted end of the plate cylinder.
  • the novel compensating mechanism may be applied either to water supplying form rollers or inking form rollers depending upon the necessities of each individual case.
  • FIGURE 1 is a fragmentary view in side elevation of a printing press embodying the principles of the present invention, the view being taken from a point just outside of a side frame portion of the press in a direction axially of one of the plate cylinders thereof;
  • FIGURE 2 is a similar view but taken from a point just inside of the press frame as from the line 22 of FIG- URE 3 of the drawings;
  • FIGURE 3 is a view in vertical transverse section taken approximately on line 3-3 of FIGURE 1;

  • FIGURES 6 and 7 are diagrammatic operational views somewhat similar to the lower left-hand portion of FIG- URE 2 and showing certain of the form rollers in on and oil positions respectively;
  • FIGURE 8 is a fragmentary view in elevation of a portion of the compensating mechanism as taken from line 8-8 of FIGURE 1;
  • FIGURE 9 is a fragmentary view in elevation of a portion of the plate cylinder skewing mechanism as seen from line 9-9 of FIGURE 1;

  • FIGURE 12 is a fragmentary sectional view taken on line 12-12 of FIGURE 1;
  • FIGURE 13 is a fragmentary view in elevation of a portion of the form roller throw-out linkages.
  • FIGURES 3 and 11 show the spanning of the press from one side to the other by the plate cylinder and associated rollers, and at the same time visualize the associated bearing and adjusting means for the plate cylinder and the rollers by observing the views of FIGURES 1 and 2 taken respectively from the outside and the inside of the side frame located toward the left-hand sides of FIGURES 3 and 11.
  • the left-hand side frame as viewed in FIGURES 3 and 11 is designated by the reference numeral and may be referred to as the near side frame, and the right-hand or far. side frame is identified by the numeral 12.
  • a bearing bushing 15 within which an anti-friction bearing 16 is disposed.
  • the bearing assembly is preferably of the spherical roller bearing type having inner races 17 and outer races 18 between which the bearing rollers 19 are caged.
  • the bearing 16 serves to support the attenuated, trunnion or gudgeon potion 20 of the plate cylinder shaft- 21', said plate cylinder itself bearing the designation 25.
  • a further extension 26 of the shaft has a drive gear 28 keyed upon it as at 29, and the sleeve 15 may be provided with a closure ring 30 for affording a dust seal for the bearing.
  • the side frame 10 is provided with a' bore similar to the bore 13 in the frame 12, and fixedly secured within the bore 35' is the sleeve member 36, whichhas a cylindrical external surface centered'about the axis of. the plate cylinder but an eccentrically formed inner cylindrical surface.
  • the eccentricity of this sleeve is most clearly shown in FIGURE 10 of the drawings.
  • bearing box 38 Within the eccentrically formed cylindrical interior of thesleeve 36, there is mounted for rotative adjustment the eccentric bearing box 38.
  • Bearing assemblies 16 which may be of identical construction to the ones similarly numbered at the far side ofthe press are received within the interior of the bearing box 38 and these hearings serve to support the gudgeon portion 39. of the shaft 21 o f-the plate cylinder 25.
  • the outer races 18 of the bearing assembly 16 at this end of the press are clamped in position' by means of the retainer cap 40, this cap being secured to the outward portion of the bearing box 38 by means of the bolts or screws 42.
  • An inwardly projecting flange-43 abuts, the race 18.
  • the eccentric sleeve 36 is fixedly disposed with its thickest and thinnest portions aligned along the common planeof the normal axes of the plate cylinder 25 and the blanket cylinders. 50, which plane is indicated at X in FIGURES 1: and 10, the thinner portion of the eccentric sleeve 36 being disposed nearest to the blanket cylinder.
  • the eccentrically formed bearing box 38 is initially and normally disposed with its major and minor eccentricities aligned along the plane X but with its thicker side toward the blanket cylinder.
  • eccentric sleeve 36 is fixedly mounted within the bore 35 in the side frame 10
  • this element could be made unitary with the side frame by merely boring an opening inthe frame 10 corresponding to the eccentric inner surface of the sleeve, and the eccentric bearing box '38i'ns'erted therein for the rotative adjustment described.
  • the opening made directly-in the side frame 10. would be eccentric to and out of registry with the corresponding opening in the opposite side frame 12 which accommodates the bearing supporting bushing15.
  • a gear segment 45 is bolted as at 46 to the adjusting cap member and meshing with the teeth of the gear segment are the threads of the worm 52.
  • the worm 52 is pinned to the worm shaft 54 which is journalled in the bracket 55 secured to the press frame 10 as by means of the fastening elements 56.
  • a hexagonal head element or nut 58 is fixed to the upper end of the worm shaft 54 so that a wrench or other suitable tool may be applied thereto for rotating the worm 52 and thus adjusting the cap member 40 through the desired angle.
  • bracket 55 is so shaped as to position the axis of the worm shaft 54 at an angle to the plane of the press frame 10. This will cause the helix angle of the worm 52 to be transversely aligned with the teeth of the gear segment 45 so that it may be possible for the segment 45 to move axially of the plate cylinder to afford side register movement of the latter.
  • This side register adjustment is accomplished by means of the following devices.
  • the outwardly extending end portion of the bearing box 38 is externally provided with rather large screw threads 60 and meshing with these threads are the threads of a large annular nut 62, this nut being provided with spur gear teeth 63 upon its outer periphery.
  • An adjusting shaft shown at 65 in FIGURE 1 of the drawings carries a pinion 66 upon its end which meshes with the teeth 63 of the nut 62 and it will be readily seen that rotation of this adjusting shaft 65' will cause the nut 62 to rotate in threadedengagement with the bearing box 38.
  • the nut 62 is confined against axial movement by means of the shroud or gib member 68 which is of suificient arcuate extent to properly confinethe nut 62.
  • the bearing box 38 can be adjusted axially of the cylinder to give side register movement thereto.
  • a space, 15 is provided between the flange, of the opposite bearing bushing 15 and the outer wall of the side frame 12 to a"-- commodate the equivalent axial movement of the bearing 16 when the bearing box 38 is adjusted as above described.
  • the ink form rollers which are normally in contact with the plate on the plate cylinder to ink the images thereon, are only slightly affected by the above described canting of the plate cylinder, at least in the particular press used for an example in the present application.
  • the water form rollers. are more seriously affected by this canting adjustment of the plate,
  • auxiliary form rollers may be applied with equal facility to either ink form rollers or water form rollers, depending upon the structural arrangement of the form roller system with relation to the direction of canting of the plate cylinder.
  • FIGURES 1, 4, 5 and 8 One system of installation and operation of the inking form rollers and water form rollers of a lithographic or offset press of this type is illustrated generally to best advantage in FEGURES 2, 3, 6 and 7, while certain details of adjustment and operation are depicted by FIGURES 1, 4, 5 and 8.
  • the ink form rollers are shown at 70, 71 and 72.
  • the axles 73 of these ink rollers are trunnioned in anti-friction bearing assemblies 75 which are retained in the pivoted hangers 78 by means of the clamps 79, after appropriate adjustment as by means of the screws 76.

  • the hangers 95- are commonly pivoted upon the shaft 98 of the water vibrator roller 99.
  • FIGURE 2 An inspection of FIGURE 2 will reveal that displacement of the axis of the plate cylinder 25 in either direction along the semi-circular line ab will not seriously affect the proper rolling contact with the ink rollers '70, 71 and 72 since these rollers are disposed in approximate alignment in the general direction of the line a-b. However, the water form rollers 90 and 91 will have to be correspondingly adjusted Whenever the canting or skewing of the plate cylinder is resorted to.
  • Both the plain bearing sleeve or box 15 in the side frame 12 and the eccentric bearing supporting sleeve 36 in side frame are provided with annular extension flanges 100 inwardly of the bearings 16. These flanges are properly grooved to retain the adjustable spur gear segments or arcuate rack members 101 and 102.
  • each of the hanger frames 95 of the water form rollers 90 and 91 in the direction toward the side frame 10 of the press is the freely rotatable headed pin 105.

  • Eccentrically and rotatably disposed within an opening in the gear member 110 is a headed pin 112.
  • Transverse reversely threaded openings are formed in the respective heads of the pins 105 and 112, and a threaded connector bar 115 having right-hand and left-hand screw threads at its respective opposite ends is threaded through the openings in the pins or studs 105 and 112.
