Automatic pattern registration with oscillating structure

摘要

An apparatus for maintaining the relationship of a transverse oscillating mechanical production member containing dye valves with a product moving linearly at a relatively high speed and with the program of operation of the valves. Encoders related to both the linear motion and the transverse motion are continuously monitored and the speed of the oscillating element adjusted to match the linear motion while a proximity switch operated at one point in the oscillating member cycle monitors the synchronization of the oscillating member which is adjustable once every cycle to maintain synchronization.
