A device for switching off of a printing process in the case of a machine for the printing of cylindrical hollow bodies

摘要

A continuous printer and skip-print mechanism comprising a plurality of blanket holder segments on a rotated drum successively movable into and out of printing position, a stationary cam, a cam follower on each segment, and operative connections including a withdrawable bridge member between the cam follower and each blanket holder segment for moving the segment into printing position. An air cylinder or other suitable mechanism responsive to the malfunction signal actuates a pivotally mounted trigger and connecting rod which are part of skip-print means for withdrawing the bridging member from the operative connections between the cam follower and each blanket holder segment, thereby producing a gap in the operative connections and preventing movement of the segment into printing position when malfunction occurs, without interrupting subsequent printing operations.
