DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0035] FIG. 1 shows a base body 10 according to the invention in a schematic, perspective view. In all figures the thickness of the layers of the base body 10 for the representation is only schematically visualized and therefore not true to scale. Only for the better representation further the different layers are shown with different lengths in FIG. 1. Preferably however all layers comprise mainly the same length, which is particularly adapted to the length of the sleeve 10.1. The elastic layer 10.2 is thereby for example applied directly to the sleeve 10.1. Thereby the elastic layer 10.2 can for example be applied on the sleeve 10.1 by adhesive tape and, for example, can be configured self-adhesive for the application of the sleeve 10.1. In case the elastic layer 10.2 is configured self-adhesive, it comprises a not shown adhesive material (adhering adhesive material) 10.4. Further the elastic layer 10.2 comprises an outer carrier layer 10.3 which can be radially further outside of the elastic layer 10.2 and/or can be the radially outermost layer. The carrier layer 10.3 is thereby suitable, such that a print image structure 20 can be applied to the carrier layer 10.3, particularly in a manner that it permanently and/or during the printing process remains on the carrier layer 10.3. The print image structure 20 is only schematically visualized by a dashed line. The shown base body 10 can further comprise for example at the inner side a flexible layer for example from a polymer (not shown), wherein the pushing on to the mandrel 42 is simplified.
[0036] FIG. 2 shows a schematic sectional view of the base body 10 according to the invention, Like in FIG. 1 a sleeve 10.1, a thereon applied elastic layer 10.2 and a thereon applied carrier layer 10.3 are shown. A retaining of the carrier layer 10.3 is for example effected thereby that the elastic layer 10.2 comprises a not shown adhesive material 10.4 and therewith itself configures for example an adhesive tape being adhesive on both sides.
[0037] In FIG. 3 is shown a first adhesive layer 10.5a and a second adhesive layer 10.5b according to another embodiment. It is further possible that for example only the first adhesive layer 10.5a without the second adhesive layer 10.5b or only the second adhesive layer 10.5b without the first adhesive layer 10.5a is intended (not shown). Further, alternatively an adhesive material 10.4 can be assembled at the position of the first adhesive layer 10.5a and the second adhesive layer 10.5b, meaning between the sleeve 10.1 and the elastic layer 10.2 and between the elastic layer 10.2 and the carrier layer 10.3. The adhesive material 10.4 and also the first and second adhesive layers 10.5a. 10.5b thereby serve for a secure arrangement and application of the layers of the base body 10.
[0038] In FIG. 4 an arrangement of an information device 30 in a sleeve 10.1 of the base body 10 is shown schematically. Thereby the information device 30 comprises a communication unit 30.1 which for example comprises a RFID transponder in order to affect a contactless data exchange for example with a printing machine 40 or a printing form machine 50. Thereby the communication unit 30.1 can be electrically (electronically) connected with a non-volatile memory unit 30.2 and an evaluation unit 30.3. The evaluation unit 30.3 is preferably configured as a microprocessor, microcontroller and/or processor, which for example controls the data transfer and enables a reliable data evaluation of the received data. Further it is possible that the evaluation unit 30.3 and/or the information device 30 comprise an interface via which data for example from an external device, particularly a computer, can be transcribed into the non-volatile memory unit 30.2 (like for example a desired print image in CAD format). Likewise in this manner further method parameters for example for the printing process can be transcribed into the non-volatile memory unit 30.2 and for example during the printing process can be read out by the printing machine 40 and/or the printing form machine 50. Thus, for example a print image which the printing form machine 50 should generate as a print image structure 20 to the base body 10 can be saved as a specification in the non-volatile memory unit 31.2 and can be transferred contactless from the communication unit 30.1 to the printing form machine 50.
[0039] In FIG. 5 schematic method steps of a method 100 according, to the invention are visualized. In a first method step 100.1 an elastic layer 10.2 for retaining an outer carrier layer 10.3 on a sleeve 10.4 is applied. In a further method step 100.2 the carrier layer 10.3 is applied to the elastic layer 10.2. In this manner a base body 10 according to the invention is produced, wherein the carrier layer 10.3 is configured, such that the print image structure 20 is applied reliably in a way that it remains applied on the carrier layer 10.3 for a defined duration or permanently.
[0040] In FIG. 6 a sectional view of a base body 10 according to the invention is shown schematically. Hereby the print image structure 20 is already applied to the carrier layer 10.3. Thereby the use of a base body 10 according to the invention in a printing machine 40 is visualized during the printing process. Thereby the base body 10 is applied with a sleeve 10.1 of the elastic layer 10.2 and the carrier layer 10.3 at a mandrel 42 of the printing machine 40. Further, a counter pressure cylinder 41 of the printing machine 40 is shown, wherein the printing liability is generated. Between the counter pressure cylinder 41 and the print image structure 20 the printing material to which the print image should be transferred can be guided.
[0041] The previous description of the embodiments describes the present invention only within the scope of examples. Naturally, single features of the embodiment, as far as technically meaningful, can be freely combined with one another without leaving the scope of the present invention.
