Numerous prior known systems have evolved for the purpose of attaching printing plates to rotary cylinders for use in subsequent printing operations. For example,
there are many known devices in which mechanical.
connections provided by clamps, screws, brackets or the like are employed for retaining the printing member in position. Such devices are quite complicated and consequently expensive to manufacture and maintain.
Moreover, recent developments in the field of printing plates have included the development of new lightweight thin printing elements which cannot be easily secured to a conventional supporting roller by means of the clamps or other attachment means currently used on such rollers. While magnetic means have been employed for maintaining a printing element in position on specially designed supporting rolls previous to this invention, the prior known devices have not proven to be satisfactory in that they are frequently complicated, expensive and greatly lacking in versatility in that they can only be used with specific type printing members. For example, U.S. Pat. No. 2,788,743 illustrates a complicated printing roll assembly in which an electromagnetic means is provided on the interior of the rollfor maintaining printing elements in position on the surface of the'roll. The device of this patent is obviously quite complex and expensive to manufacture and maintain. v
Other prior known systems such as that shown in US. Pat. No. 2,774,302 have employed a unitary combination of magnets and printing elements in the form of a composite member which is attached to the external surface of the printing roller. The unitary member including the magnets must be removed from the roller in order to remove the printing member and this fact greatly limits the versatility of the devices employing printing members of this type.
Still other printing devices have employed permanently embedded magnets in a roll for securing the external printing member to the exterior of the roll. US. Pat. No. 3,509,819 illustrates such a system. However, the devices of the last-mentioned type are obviously expensive to construct and also suffer from the shortcoming that the magnetic elements eventually lose their strength and must be replaced.
Previous attempts to provide satisfactory magnetic printing plate attachment means have resulted in the need for a complete modification of the printing roll with which the device is associated. Since there are litinexpensive to manufacture and maintain and which would provide a reliable trouble-free service.
For these reasons, it is the primary object of this invention to provide a new and improved printing member in which the printing element is held in position on a conventional roll by magnetic means.
Obtainment of the object of this invention is enabled through the provision of a metal saddle connectable to a conventional roll by the plate clamps on the roll. A relatively thin flexible magnetic sheet is adhesively secured to the outer surface of the saddle. Additionally, a radially extending pin extends from the saddle for mating receipt in apertures in a flexible printing plate secured to the outer surface of the magnetic material by the magnetic force of the magnetic material. The pin maintains the printing plate in fixed position with respect to the cylinder and the magnetic material holds the plate in position on the cylinder. The saddle mem bar is arcuately curved and of the same general configuration as conventional curved printing plates and is easily attached and removed from the roll in the same manner as the printing plates. Therefore, the device is easily convertible back to the conventional method of plate attachment and is completely versatile.
A better understanding of the invention will be understood when the following written description is considered in light of the attached drawings in which:
FIG. 1 is a perspective view of the preferred embodiment illustrating the exploded components of a laminated printing member and a unitary printing member attached to a printing roll;
FIG. 2 is a sectional view taken along lines 2-2 of FIG. 1; and
FIG. 3 is an enlarged view of a portion of FIG. 2.
The preferred embodiment, which is generally designated l0, combinationally comprises a conventional printing roll 12 of cylindrical configuration. A plurality of end plate clamps 16 and side plate clamps 17 movable by conventional means are provided in the roll 12 for clamping printing plates or the like to the outer surface of the roll in a manner well-known to those skilled in the art. Any conventional plate clamp and actuating assembly can be employed in the cylinder with examples of such assemblies being found in US. Pat. Nos. 1,604,653; 1,860,916, 1,916,777 and 2,832,288 The particular clamp assembly and actuator means employed with the cylinder forms no part of the invention; however, it should be understood that the invention is usable with practically all conventional printing roll mounted gripper plates of the type normally used for gripping the relatively thick cast printing plates wellknown to those skilled in the art.
A laminated magnetic printing plate support and assembly 20 is provided for attachment to the exterior of roll 12 and includes an arcuate metal saddle member 22 which is curved in the manner of the well-known rigid printing plates widely used in the industry and which is dimensioned in essentially the same manner as such plates so as to be held in position by means of the conventional plate clamps 16 and 17. The saddle member 22 is easily removed from the roll 12 by merely releasing the clamps 16 in a manner which will be obvious to those skilled in the art.
A relatively thin sheet of flexible rubber-like magnetic material 24 is secured to the outer surface of the saddle member 22 by both magnetic attraction of the magnetic material to the saddle member and the em- '3 ployment of adhesive material 25 between the two elements. A protective sheet 26 formed of acetate or other synthetic material devoid of any magnetic shielding effeet is adhesively secured to the outer'surface of the sheet 24 of magnetic material for protecting sheet 24.
Sheet 24 provides a magnetic field of force which operates on a thin plate element 28 having portions which are susceptible to magnetic attraction so that the element 28 is held in position on the outer surface of the sheet 24. Plate element 28 is preferably a conventional member formed of a thin steel backing member having an outer periphery surface comprising a thin coating of photo-polymer material. Plates of this type have previously been secured to a support cylinder by means of adhesive material which has not been entirely satisfactory due to slippage and movement of the plate on the cylinder. The entire plate element 28 can be of magnet-' ically attractable material if desired. Alignment pins 30 extend radially outward from the saddle member 22 through the magnetic material 24 and through alignment apertures 32 in plate 28 for insuring that the printing plate element 28 is in the proper position on the roll 12 in order that proper registry can be obtained and maintained. g
It will be obvious that the printing plate 28 can be easily removed from the roll by exertion of a radial peeling force pulling it away from the magnetic sheet 24. Moreover, the saddle member 22 can obviously be removed if it should be desired to use the roll for printing with the older conventional heavier plates of the type normally clampable in position by the plate clamps.
While the preferred embodiment employs adhesive for securing the magnetic sheet 24 in position, it should also be understood that in some instances the magnetic sheet could be secured solely by virtue of its magnetic attraction for saddle member 22. These and other modifications will be obvious to those skilled in the art and it should be understood that the spirit and scope of the invention is to be limited solely by the appended claims.

1. A printing means comprising a main support member having an outer surface, a saddle member connected to said outer surface, a magnetic member formed of a unitary flat flexible magnetic material secured to said saddle member and a magnetically attractable printing plate member magnetically adhered to said magnetic member by the magnetic force of the magnetic member.
