A device for picking up and applying a cosmetic composition, in particular makeup, having a flexible support defining an, in particular continuous, application surface intended to receive the cosmetic composition, and at least two elements that are movable with respect to one another and are connected to the support, such that a relative movement of these two elements brings about a mechanical stress on the support and causes the latter to deform between a configuration for picking up cosmetic composition and an application configuration.

A printing pad includes a bottom surface extending in a plane defined in a first direction and a second direction intersecting the first direction. A first upper surface faces the bottom surface. A first side surface connects the bottom surface and the first upper surface. A second portion is disposed on the first portion and includes a second upper surface facing the first upper surface and a second side surface connecting the first upper surface and the second upper surface. A width of the second portion in the first direction increases from the first upper surface towards the second upper surface.

A thermostatic color ink cup pad printer includes an ink cup mechanism, a printing mechanism and a printing plate mechanism. The ink cup mechanism includes an ink cup assembly and a first driving source; the printing mechanism includes a printing pad and a second driving source; and the printing plate mechanism includes a printing plate and a base. The base is internally provided with a heating section capable of generating heat for heating the printing plate, such that the printing plate in contact with the ink cup assembly is maintained at a set temperature, and ink in the ink cup assembly in contact with the printing plate can also be kept at the set temperature in the process of pad printing.

A method for manufacturing a printing blanket including an elastic body that can be repeatedly used by removing a sheet is provided. According to the above of the present invention, the printing blanket includes an elastic body and a sheet bonded to the elastic body and performs printing by pressing the sheet against a printing object surface. The method includes a sheet fixing step of fixing the sheet at a periphery of a region in which the sheet is to be bonded to the elastic body; an elastic body placing step of placing the elastic body so that a bonding surface of the elastic body faces a bonding surface of the sheet that is fixed; a wax applying step of forming a wax layer on a surface of the elastic body; an adhesive applying step of applying an adhesive to at least one of the sheet and the elastic body that is provided with the wax layer on the surface thereof; and a pressing step of pressing the sheet and the elastic body against each other and bringing the sheet into close contact with the elastic body provided with the wax layer such that the adhesive is interposed therebetween while stretching the sheet along the surface.

An offset printing method is provided that, while using an ink with a viscosity that allows for printing of a print image on a printing plate by an ink-jet process, enables a precise print image to be transferred from the printing plate to a print medium by use of a printing blanket. The offset printing method includes a printing-plate making step of printing an inked image on a printing plate by an ink-jet process, an ink drying step of evaporating a solvent contained in the ink of the inked image to increase the viscosity of the ink, a transferring step of transferring the inked image to the surface of a printing blanket, and a printing step of pressing the printing blanket against a print medium.

There are provided a printing blanket which maintains the accuracy of printing of an image, and also prevents a failure of transfer of an ink from an original printing plate to the printing blanket, a method for manufacturing the printing blanket, and a printing method using the printing blanket. The printing blanket according to the present invention includes an elastic body which deforms in conformity to the shape of a to-be-printed surface. The elastic body includes a printing surface to be pressed against the to-be-printed surface. In the printing surface, an entire region is provided with a plurality of irregularities are formed over the entire surface of the printing surface, and an elevation difference from a highest part of the irregularities to a lowest part thereof falls within the range of 2 to 20 μm.

A method of printing radiopaque indicia on a medical device. The method includes applying radiopaque marking fluid to a surface of a plate comprising one or more etchings having a depth of at least 0.0001 inches, exposing the radiopaque marking fluid on the surface of the plate to air to allow the radiopaque marking fluid to achieve a sufficient level of tackiness, and transferring the radiopaque marking fluid to a medical device. The radiopaque marking fluid comprises a clear ink and tungsten particulates having a particulate size of more than one micron.

A wheel logo imprinting device includes a wheel feeding system, a position identification system, a wheel turning system, a logo imprinting system, a station switching system, a logo drying system and a wheel discharging system. The device can be used for continuous production of assembly lines, can realize multi-directional, multi-angle and multi-number imprinting of personalized logos, orderly connects feeding, imprinting, drying and discharging through a reasonable process layout, and integrates imprinting and drying by using double stations so as to greatly improve the production efficiency and shorten the production cycle.

The present invention relates to architected stamps having beneficial printing properties. In particular, negative Poisson ratio structures and/or porous reservoirs can be employed to control fluid dynamics and to provide metered ink transfer.
