An I.S. machine is disclosed which has a plurality of individual sections arranged in side by side relation. Each section has blank mold and blow mold opening and closing mechanisms and an invert and neck ring holder mechanism for transferring a parison between these mechanisms. Each of the mold opening and closing mechanisms has a pair of opposed mold support mechanisms which are supported for linear displacement. Ways at either end of the section support one end of each pair of mold support me...

An I.S. machine is disclosed which has a plurality of individual sections arranged side by side. Each section has a section box for supporting a blank mold opening and closing mechanism and a blow mold opening and closing mechanism. These section boxes are supported on a bed which has a top wall underlying the section boxes. Passages are provided through the bed, beneath the top wall of the bed, from one side to the other side of said I.S. machine and these passages slidably receive a plurality ...

An I.S. machine system has a number of mechanisms which are driven by an inverter drive and a number of machine and section mechanisms which are driven by profiled motion actuators which are controlled by repetitive sequencers associated with each actuator. These repetitive sequencers are synchronized by taking the reference signal from a master clock which supplies the reference signal to the inverters and converts it to a once/cut sync signal for the machine mechanisms operated by profiled mot...

An I.S. machine has a plurality of individual sections arranged in side by side relation. Each section has a blank station for forming a parison from a gob of molten glass, and a blow station for forming a parison into a bottle. An invert and neck ring holder mechanism is located between these stations for transferring a parison between from one station to the other. Each station has a mold opening and closing mechanism which has a pair of opposed mold support mechanisms supported for linear dis...

An I.S. machine has a plurality of individual sections each having a blank station for forming a parison from a gob of molten glass in opposed pairs of blankmold halves supported by opposed mold carriers displaceable between retracted and advanced positions and a blow station for forming a parison into a bottle in opposed pairs of blowmold halves supported by opposed mold carriers displaceable between retracted and advanced positions. The drive assemblies for the four mold carriers are identical...

In a machine comprising a plurality of driven working implements, at least one common main drive is provided, which has a main drive shaft, from which at least some of the working implements are driven directly through the intermediary of non-positive clutches associated with the respective working implements. Such machine can be operated in an energy-saving and ecologically satisfactory manner and also permits a saving of material and nevertheless can be used for a large number of purposes and ...

The present invention relates to apparatus for the mass production of modules; and more particularly to the mass production of electronic modules adapted for use in an printed circuit board. The present application discloses apparatus for mass producing such modules by feeding suitable carrier strip formations onto an indexing trackway, utilizing suitable indexing fingers for moving said carrier strips along said trackway, cutting and forming carrier strip portions to desired configurations, sev...

A haymaking machine comprising a frame and a rotatable processing member for crop processing. The processing member is connected with the frame and supported from the ground via a supporting device, which comprises at least one balance arm that is mounted on a substantially horizontal pivot axis and is provided with a wheel at each of its ends. During the crop processing, the wheels bear on the ground, the supporting device further being provided with an element for moving, for transport of the ...

In a machine tool (10) with a machine base (11), a working area (14), in which workpieces (13) are machined, and a device (25), which receives chips (24) formed during machining of the workpieces (13) from the working area (14) and conveys them onward, at least one tunnel (31, 33) provided for receiving one end (39) of a chip conveyor (38) is provided in the machine base (11), which tunnel extends at least to below the device (25) and is there of upwardly open (28) design.

A machine tool has a machine part (25) which undergoes temperature-dependent changes in length, and is equipped, where it comes into contact with coolant (23), with a thermal insulation layer (28).
