The present disclosure relates to a garbage bin, a bin lid, and an automatic cutting mechanism, wherein the cutting drive device drives the first cutting assembly to move along the first guiding assembly and drives the second cutting assembly to move along the second guiding assembly; the first cutting assembly and the second cutting assembly are approached and moved away from each other when moving back and forth. When approaching to each other, a twisted seal at the upper end of the garbage bag is clamped and cut, and after moving away from each other, a space is left for the new garbage bag at the upper end to expand downwards. The automatic cutting mechanism clamps the twisted seal, a size required to be heated is short, the required heat is little, the heating block and power consumption are low, thus the environmental protection is improved.

A method cuts an extruded pipe to length using a separating device. The separating device includes a separator rotating about an extrusion axis of the extruded pipe, the separator being rotatably mounted in the separating device, and cutting tools being arranged on the separator. The cutting tools are configured to carry out the separation. The method includes transferring energy to move the cutting tools. The energy is transferred from a stationary outer region of the separating device to a movable inner region of the separating device. The energy is transferred continuously or cyclically and the transferred energy is buffered in an energy storage device. The energy is transferred inductively or capacitively. A discharge time of the energy storage device is between 2% and 25% of a total separation cycle.

A microtome blade guard including a first arm operable to be coupled to a first side of a cutting mechanism of a microtome; a second arm operable to be coupled to a second side of a cutting mechanism; a lateral support member disposed between the first arm and the second arm; and a staff coupled to the lateral support member and operable to extend therefrom to engage a blade positioned in the blade slot. A microtome including a blade guard and a method including placing a blade in a blade slot of a blade block of a microtome; engaging the blade with a staff coupled to a blade guard that is coupled to the blade block; and moving the blade with the staff.

A handheld motorised food cutting device (10) is disclosed herein. The handheld motorised food cutting device (10) comprises a body (12) to be gripped in a user's hand so that the device (10) is supported by the hand, the body (12) having a passage (14) extending inwardly of the body (12) from an inlet opening (16) through which a food item to be processed is inserted for movement along the passage (14) in a processing direction (18); a blade assembly (30) moveably mounted in the body (12) for reciprocating movement along a cutting path that is transverse of said processing direction (18), with the blade assembly (30) being exposed to the passage (14) so as to be engaged by the food item moved in said processing direction (18); and a drive assembly (50) to drive said blade assembly (30) along said cutting path, wherein the body (12) provides a surface to abut a palm of said hand, with fingers of the hand extending at least partly about said body so that the body (12) is gripped, and wherein said processing direction (18) is transverse of said surface.

This invention provides web-cutting mechanism that can be mounted in line at an appropriate location between the web-handling peripheral (printer) and a web roll. The cutting mechanism operates before the available storage in the winder festoon has been exhausted, and decouples the roll's energy from the web. The cutting mechanism can employ a blade that is drawn through the web solely by the movement of the web itself. The blade is mounted at a (e.g.) 45-degree angle to web travel, causing it to be pulled through the web. A negator spring assembly and associated cable drives the blade into the side edge of the web when a slide-mounted blade shuttle assembly is released by a latching pawl of a solenoid assembly. The solenoid is triggered by a signal indicating an emergency stop condition, such as an upstream jam.

A servo system for driving a load having a servo motor, a servo drive operatively coupled to the servo motor and a cyclic force convertor operatively coupled to the load is disclosed.

The invention relates to a cutting device and a method for cutting paper, wherein the cutting device comprises a cutting blade and a counter-member that cooperate to cut the paper along a cutting line, wherein the cutting blade is movable towards and away from the counter-member in a driving direction transverse or perpendicular to the cutting line, wherein the cutting device is provided with a drive mechanism to drive the movement of the cutting blade with respect to the counter-member in the driving direction, wherein the drive mechanism comprises a first spindle and a second spindle, wherein the drive mechanism further comprises one or more motors and a mechanical synchronization element in the form of a chain or a toothed belt that is arranged to synchronize the first spindle and the second spindle in a 1:1 ratio.

A cutting device and a method for cutting paper are provided. The cutting device includes a cutting blade and a counter-member. The cutting device is further provided with a first guide and a second guide extending in or parallel to the driving direction for linearly guiding a holder that holds the cutting blade. Each of the guides includes a guide body. The guide bodies of the first guide and the second guide, when released, are arranged to be rotatable relative to the frame about a first adjustment axis and a second adjustment axis, respectively. Each guide body includes an eccentric section that moves eccentrically about the respective adjustment axis and that is arranged to convert the rotational movement of the guides about the respective adjustment axes into a linear movement of the holder in the adjustment direction.

A bundle breaker includes an upstream breaking section and a downstream breaking section and a platen over each breaking section for clamping a log to the respective breaking section. First and second actuators are configured to move the first and second platens, and a third actuator is configured to move the downstream breaking section relative to the upstream breaking section to break a bundle from a log. An input conveyor is located at the input end of the upstream breaking section and has a first portion that is foldable relative to a second portion to create a gap in the bundle breaker through which a worker can pass.
