  • Each of the inking units includes an ink trough, an ink roll rotatable in the ink trough for coating the intaglio roll, a doctor member pivotally mounted and extending upwardly into surface contact with the lower portion of its intaglio roll inwardly of the axis of rotation and pneumatic means for pivoting the doctor member downwardly to permit passage by the intaglio roll upon pivoting of the gate member.
  • the height of the free edge of the doctor member may be vertically adjusted and the pressure holding the doctor member against the intaglio roll may be pneumatically adjusted.
  • a second doctor member is employed in contact with the upper surface of the intaglio roll and the inking unit includes means for adjusting the pressure of the free edge of the second doctor member against the intaglio roll.
  • the intaglio rolls are of cylindrical configuration and supported upon the frame by novel cone assemblies and by novel expandable bushings.
  • intaglio print machines have been designed and sold for many applications.
  • the most commonly employed form of such machines utilizes a large backing cylinder about the circumference of which are disposed the engraved or intaglio rolls.
  • print machines employing pairs of intaglio and back up rolls disposed in horizontal or in vertical alignment, depending upon the desired path of the material being printed therethrough.
  • ink or color it is necessary to supply ink or color to the intaglio rolls and various techniques have been proposed therefor.
  • an inking roll or furnishing roll rotates through a reservoir of the ink or color and transfers that ink or color to the intaglio roll by circumferential surface contact at a nip therebetween.
  • One of the principal problems in utilizing this technique of inking the intaglio roll is the avoidance of excessive deposition upon the surface of the intaglio roll, and another problem resides in the removal from the intaglio roll of residual ink or color which may be picked up from the cloth being printed.
  • Attempting to change colors in one or more of the intaglio roll stations generally involves disassembly of the parts for cleaning with considerable down time on the machine.
  • adjustment of the pressure and position of the several doctor members often requires considerable skill and tedious manipulation.
  • the intaglio rolls are relatively massive structures in order to survive the stresses and pressures placed thereon. Consequently, they are generally expensive, difficult to handle, and require relatively massive drive units with attendant problems in torque, inertia and the like.
  • doctor members may be readily adjusted pneumatically to control the pressure at the point of contact with the intaglio-rolls.
  • Another object is to provide such a print machine in which the inking assemblies may be readily disassembled for facile cleaning, replacement and adjustment.
  • a further object is to provide such a print machine in which relatively light weight intaglio rolls of substantially cylindrical configuration are supported firmly and driven synchronously.

  • the inking unit also includes means for pivoting the free edge of the main doctor member downwardly and inwardly of the axis of rotation of its associated intaglio roll to a position below that roll in order to permit pivoting of the gate member and movement of the inking units outwardly from the intaglio rolls.
  • the trough has projecting elements on the sides thereof which slideably seat in generally horizontally extending slots opening at the outer surface of the gate member.
  • the slots are generally S-shaped and a pair of horizontally spaced projecting elements are provided on each side of the trough; the trough may thus slide outwardly in the slots while the gate member is in its closed position and pivot first upwardly and then downwardly to empty the trough.

  • the means for pivoting the free edge of the main doctor member preferably includes a pneumatic cylinder and this cylinder may be operable not only to effect pivoting into position against the surface of the intaglio roll and downwardly into an inoperable position for withdrawal of the inking unit from the intaglio roll, but also to control the pressure at the point of intersection between the free edge of the doctor member and the intaglio roll.
  • the machine includes a second doctor member spaced upwardly from the trough and extending upwardly and inwardly into surface contact with the upper circumferential surface of its associated intaglio roll outwardly of the axis of rotation thereof.
  • the inking unit also includes means for adjusting the second doctor member relative to the intaglio roll, most conveniently provided by pivotal mounting thereof on the gate member so that adjusting means may pivot the doctor member and adjust the pressure at the point of surface contact with the intaglio roll.

  • the machine may be double sided to permit printing on either face, pivotable gates being employed in each instance in order to obtain the advantages of the present invention.
  • accessory mechanism includes a carrier for moving several intaglio rolls into position simultaneously to effect mounting thereof. Since the pressures at roll nip and at doctor blade nip are provided by the pneumatic cylinders, these may be controlled precisely and repeatably.
  • the apparatus permits operation both with and without backing grey and is selfcontained with respect to cleaning mechanism for the rubber blanket.
  • the present invention provides a novel and highly effective print machine affording significant economies in operation and in downtime. It is highly versatile and permits rapid change of colors and removal from printing of one or more colors with resultant variation of pattern.
  • the pressure at the roll nip and main doctor blade may be varied pneumatically and accurately.
  • the inking unit may be cleaned and then replaced in operation in the previously established conditions. Lightweight rolls may be employed and held firmly. lts highly effective construction minimizes Wear on operating components and facilitates operation by relatively untrained operators.
