A platen press with a press toggle mechanism (43) having a driving member (14) and a press toggle column (44). The press toggle column (44) comprises a driven member (38), a first toggle lever (46) assigned to the driven member (38) and a second toggle lever (48) assigned to the driven member (38). The first toggle lever (46) has a first contact surface (50) and the second toggle lever (48) has a second contact surface (52). Both toggle levers (46, 48) contact each other via their contact surfaces (50, 52), and wherein both contact surfaces (50, 52) are convex-shaped.

A tool set for manufacturing adhesive patches, by processing laminate web. The tool set includes a cutting tool having a cutting face lying in a cutting plane, and an embossing tool having a pressing face lying in a pressing plane, where the cutting plane and the pressing plane are parallel. The embossing tool is configured to press an edge area shape of the adhesive patch to be manufactured, and the cutting tool is configured to cut out the adhesive patch to be manufactured by cutting in edge area or outside the edge area. Furthermore, a method of manufacturing adhesive patches. The method essentially includes a feeding step, a pressing step and cutting step. Lastly an adhesive layering having a backing layer and an adhesive matrix layer. The backing layer having a larger size than the adhesive matrix layer.

The invention relates to a multi-pack container which defines a series of containers (11) formed in a plastic sheet (L) that comprises at least a layer of PET (polyethylene terephthalate), and in which said containers (11) are joined by bridges (12), provided with a pre-cut upper line (13) and a pre-cut lower line (14) for breaking the bridge (12). The pre-cut upper line (13) and a pre-cut lower line (14) are arranged parallel to one another, laterally separated in a horizontal direction and vertically separated to prevent heating by compression and a variation of the properties of the PET layer, allowing for clean breakage of the bridge by rotating the containers with respect to said pre-cut upper and lower lines. The invention also comprises a machine for manufacturing the multi-pack container.

The invention relates to a die for cutting a shape or pattern from a material, the die being composed of a base plate (1) comprising an upper surface (2) and a lower surface (3). The die comprises one or more raised edges (4) in the form of a pattern or shape to be die-cut or embossed, on each of the upper and lower surfaces, such that the die can be used to die-cut or emboss two sheets of material simultaneously.

A first sheet panel is folded along a first fold line, and thereby a first folded part is formed in the first sheet panel. Subsequently, the first folded part is folded back along a second fold line, and thereby a folded-back part is formed in the first sheet panel. A corner cut device cuts a second sheet panel and the folded-back part to form corner cut parts. At this time, the corner cut device prevents the first folded part and a base part of the first sheet panel from being cut.

A method for contour punching an output stack consisting of sheet-like material and a punching device for carrying out the method Includes providing at least two punching procedures. A large proportion of an unprinted region is separated from a printed region in a first punching procedure and a first punching waste produced thereby is collected separately, whereby the quantity of the second punching waste which is formed in a second punching procedure is significantly less than if only a single punching procedure were to be carried out. By collecting the first punching waste and the second punching waste separately, it is possible to provide this waste in each case for appropriate disposal or appropriate recycling.

[Problem] To make it easy to attach a counterplate to a specified position on a cutting plate, to prevent the counterplate falling from the cutting die during blanking, and to prevent the counterplate from making contact with a sheet. [Solution] The present invention includes: a housing (2) which includes a hole-side inclined portion (21), and in which an accommodation hole is formed; an engaging means (3) which alternates between a lower lock and an upper lock in the housing (2); and a sliding shaft member (4) fitted in the housing. The inside diameter of the upper side of the hole-side inclined portion (21) is larger than the inside diameter of the lower side thereof. The engaging means (3) is disposed above the hole-side inclined portion (21). In the sliding shaft member (4), the following are integrally formed: a lower-side inclined portion (42) which is disposed above a protruding part that protrudes below the housing (2), and which has the same direction of inclination as the hole-side inclined portion (21) and a different angle of inclination thereto; and a middle inclined portion (43) which is disposed above the lower-side inclined portion (42), and which has the opposite direction of inclination to the hole-side inclined portion (21). When the sliding shaft member (4) is pulled downwards and is stopped at the lower limit position, the lower lock state is engaged, and when the sliding shaft member (4) is pushed upwards and is stopped at the upper limit position, the upper lock state is engaged.
