ROTARY PHOTOGRAVURE PRINTING APPARATUS 3 Sheets-Sheet 1 Filed July 1, 1958 A ril 3, 1962 Filed July 1, 1958 15 i S g L. E. STAPLEFORD ETAL ROTARY PHOTOGRAVURE PRINTING APPARATUS 3 Sheets-Sheet 2 April 3, 1962 L. E. STAPLEFORD ETAL 3,027,831
ROTARY PHOTOGRAVURE PRINTING APPARATUS Filed July 1, 1958 3 Sheets-Sheet 3 Unitd States This invention relates to improvements connected with rotary photogravure printing apparatus and more specifically is directed to a rotary photogravure printing apparatus of the kind disclosed in the complete specification of British Letters Patent'No. 586,986 wherein the printing cylinder is supported in a cradle which is fulcrumed on the frame of the apparatus and wherein the cradle can be raised or lowered by means of a pneumatic or hydraulic operated ram means in order to .efiect the contact of the printing cylinder with the co-acting impression cylinder with the requisite pressure.
Experience has shown that in contrast to the relatively large pressures employed between the printing and impression cylinders for printing normal materials, when printing upon very thin materials such as for example aluminum foil, cellulose film or polythene film light printmg pressures are desirable. Accordingly in processing such thin materials in the aforesaid kind of printing apparatus the pressure is reduced in the supply line'to the ram or rams, by for example a reducing valve, in order to reduce the pressure which is in turn applied by the rams to the cradle and cylinders. It is found in practice that such a procedure may give rise to large variations in the printing pressure due to relatively small variations in the supply line pressure since for example a fall in pressure of 1 lb. per square inch from 4 to 3 lbs. per square inch in the supply line represents a 25% alteration in the printing pressure. Such a variation in-the printing pressure can seriously affect the register between the colours in a multi-colour printing press.
This invention has for its object to overcome the aforesaid difliculty by the incorporation in the printing machine, in addition to the ram or rams'for providing a relatively heavy printing pressure, of a further ram or rams which is or are adapted to provide a relatively light printing pressure when energised by the relatively high pressure of the supply line which energises the heavy rarn or rams when it will be appreciated that a fall inpressure of say 1 lb. per square inch in the supply line pressure of say 40 lbs. per square inch will represent a relatively insignificant pressure variation in the light printing pressure.
Accordingly the invention consists of rotary photogravure printing apparatus of the kind wherein the printing cylinder is supported in a pivotally mounted cradle which can be rocked by fluid operated ram means to determine the printing pressure, characterised in that said ram means comprises at least one pair of rams adapted to exert relatively light and heavy printing pressures when energised from a common relatively high pressure fluid supply line. The pair of rams may be adapted to exert, relatively low and high printing pressures by virtue of the difierent cross-sectional areas of the rams, by virtue of the different leverages exerted by the rams in'relation to the fulcrum-of the cradle, or by a combination of these designs.
Convenient means for carrying the invention into pracw tice will now be described with reference to the accompanying drawings wherein:
FIGURE 1 is a partly diagrammatic side elevation of a rotary photogravure printing machine in accordance with this invention,
A atent lifiz'ifi i Patented Apr. 3, 1%62 "ice trolling the contact pressure which obtains between the printing cylinders rotatably mounted on the cradle 6 and a superimposed impression cylinder 9 rotatably mounted on the frame 7, the ram means being of single acting type to provide an upward thrust, the weight of the cradle and printing cylinder being sufiicient to initiate downward movement of the cradle and cylinder.
As seen more particularly in FIGURE 2 the ram means provided at each of the two outer corners of the cradle consists of a pair of rams which are concentrically combined together within a single casing and comprise a circular inner piston 10 and a concentric annular outer piston 11 which are mounted for reciprocation within a pair of concentric inner and outer cylinders 12 and 13, the cylinders 12 and 13 being mounted between a common pair of end closure plates 14 and 15. Each piston 10 and 11 is'provided with an integral upwardly extending hollow cylindrical skirt 10a, 11a the upper ends whereof are coupled together, for example by bolts 16, so that the two pistonsmove together as one when either one or both of the chambers 17 and 18 defined beneath the pistons are subjected to fluid pressure, said air pressure, through their respective ports 19 and 20. The interconnected pair of pistons 10 and 11 are connected to the cradle 6 by means of a self-aligning connecting rod 21 having a ball and socket type mounting within the base of the hollow interior of the inner piston.
The inner and outer pistons 10 and 11 of the composite ram have relatively small and large cross-sectional areas respectively, say in the ratio of 1:7, so that the connection of a common high pressure supply line to one or other of the chambers 17 and 18 will result in a relatively low or high pressure thrust being imparted through the connecting rod 21 to the cradle 6 according to which chamber or ram section is energised.
As seen in FIGURE 1 the pneumatic circuit associated with the rams consists of a high pressure air line 22 which is connected through a manually controlled changeover valve 23 and a pair of branch air lines 24 and 25 to the chambers 17 and 18 respectively of the composite ram. Conveniently the line 24 to the low pressure ram section may be permanently connected to the line 22 so that a high pressure thrust from the ram is obtained by the connection of the line 25 to the line 22 thereby to energise both ram sections. The pressure which obtains in the high pressure supply line 22 is governed by a manually controlled pressure reducing valve 26 incorporated between the line 22 and the high pressure air source (not shown), and is registered by a pressure gauge 27. By means of the reducing valve 26 the thrust which is imparted to the cradle and printing cylinder is continuously variable within the low pressure and high pressure ranges afforded by the pairs of rams. It will be appreciated however that a small variation of pressure in the line 22 will result in an insignificant variation in the thrust imparted by either ram section since both ram sections are energised at a high pressure level.
It will be realised that the feature of imparting low range and high range thrusts to the cradle may be obtained by means other than that above described and the following alternative embodiments of the invention may be mentioned by way of example:
In the embodiment illustrated in FIGURE 3 each side arm of the cradle 6 is supported by a pair of separate rams Y and Z which are connected through control valve means to a common high pressure air supply line in a generally similar manner to that previously described. In this arrangement the outermost ram Y remote from the cradle fulcrum 6a embodies a piston and cylinder of relatively large cross-sectional area for the provision of a relatively heavy printing pressure Whereas the ram Z in closer proximity to the cradle fulcrum embodies a piston and cylinder having a somewhat smaller cross-sectionai area which, by virtue of this smaller area and also by virtue of its reduced leverage as compared with that of the outer ram Y, is adapted to exert a relatively light printing pressure when energised by the same high pressure air supply line as that employed by the ram Y.
In the further embodiment of the invention illustrated in FIGURE 4 the two corners of the cradle remote from the fulcrum are each articulated with a pair of oppositely acting rams V and W. According to this arrangement the lower ram W embodies a cylinder and piston of relatively large cross-section which is adapted to exert a slightly larger thrust on the cradle than a somewhat smaller piston and cylinder embodied in the oppositely directed and superposed ram V so that a relatively light printing pressure may be obtained from the differential action of the two opposed rams V and W whereas a relatively heavy printing pressure may be obtained by the energisation of the lower rams W alone. As in the other embodiments each ram cylinder is connected through control valve means to a common high pressure air supply line and the upper cylinder V of each pair of rams is desirably provided with a pre-set pressure relief Valve.
In the above described embodiments the pressure gauge 27 is conveniently calibrated in two low and high ranges to provide an indication of the thrust which is imparted to the cradle by the low pressure and the high pressure rams respectively.
