Abstract
An offset blanket print/coat assembly for printing or coating rotating containers has a novel inker blade adjustment means which adjusts the fountain blade relative to the fountain roll both inwardly and outwardly, and holds the blade edge in various desired positions along is entire length by the adjustment of individual adjustment threaded shafts positioned along the blade length. Each shaft has spaced apart threaded sections, one of which is more coarsely threaded than the other. One threaded section threadably engages a threaded mounting block mounted to the ink reservoir, while the other threaded section threadably engages a threaded adjusting eye slidably received in a sliding block mounted to the ink reservoir. The adjusting eye is coupled to the blade by a pivotable linkage. In addition, a plastic seal is urged from a slot in each side plate of a inker fountain into direct engagement with the end of the fountain roll and provides a lightweight and secure liquid seal between the seal and the fountain and also between the lower end of the seal and the fountain blade to minimize ink leakage.
