Abstract

Abstract In a labeling machine comprising a machine frame (1), a turret (2) in said frame, a concentrically disposed gear (12) carried by said turret for rotation of said turret, a plurality of turntables (3) carried by said turret, a drive (8,9) mounted in the machine frame, a pinion (10) driven by said drive and driving said concentrically disposed gear and turret, an infeed starwheel (4) and an outfeed starwheel (7) each meshing (13,14) with the concentrically disposed gear, and a labeling station (6) driven by a pinion (15) meshing with the turret gear, the improvement which comprises providing each gear (13,14) of the infeed and outfeed starwheels (4,7), of each pinion (10,15) of the drive (8,9) and of the labeling station (6), and any further pinions (18,20) meshing with the gear (12) of the turret (2) and driving, in synchronism with the turret (2), other mechanisms mounted in the machine frame, with a hub (42) a toothed ring (43) and a damping element (41,47-52) between each hub and toothed ring so as to isolate said hub and said toothed ring from each other with respect to solid-borne sound.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 4
Claim 1
Independent Claim 111 words
A process for forming a damping connection between two structural elements to be operatively connected, comprising positioning the two elements in the desired relative positions, forming beveled regions on the elements to bound the space between them, temporarily surrounding the space with a collar to form a closed space, casting into said space a material which sets to a resilient solid and undergoes shrinkage when setting, allowing the material to set so that in shrinking the resilient solid in at least one point is drawn against the beveled regions so as to center itself in the manner of a chucking cone, thereby constituting the damping connection, and removing the temporary collar.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 111 words
A process for forming a damping connection between two structural elements to be operatively connected, comprising positioning the two elements in the desired relative positions, forming beveled regions on the elements to bound the space between them, temporarily surrounding the space with a collar to form a closed space, casting into said space a material which sets to a resilient solid and undergoes shrinkage when setting, allowing the material to set so that in shrinking the resilient solid in at least one point is drawn against the beveled regions so as to center itself in the manner of a chucking cone, thereby constituting the damping connection, and removing the temporary collar.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 14 words
The process according to claim 1, wherein the resilient solid is a polyurethane elastomer.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 52 words
The process according to claim 1, wherein the two elements include an inner element and an outer element surrounding the inner element and wherein the beveled regions are formed on both ends of the inner surface of the outer element and on both ends of the outer surface of the inner element.
