Abstract: A printing machine includes a roller which is hollow and through which a temperature control liquid flows. The roller is mounted in roller fittings constructed as quick-change devices or quick-acting closures, in such a way that the roller can be quickly removed from the roller fittings and the printing machine and quickly inserted into the roller fittings and the printing machine again, by the operator of the printing machine.

Abstract: An image forming apparatus includes a chassis, a motor, a drive transmission gear that receives rotational force from the motor, a feed roller rotatably supported by the chassis, an intermediate gear that has a circular bearing, receives rotational force from the drive transmission gear, and transmits rotational force to the feed roller gear, and a gear support axle that is inserted through the bearing of the intermediate gear for rotatably supporting the intermediate gear. The gear support axle is provided with a bearing engagement part. The bearing engagement part has at least one flat section, at least one circular section, and at least two support portions formed between the flat section and the circular section, such that the gear support axle is supported by the bearing at at least one of the two support portions.
