  • Patent number: 10633795
    Abstract: A doctor blade holder (7) for a doctor blade (43) adapted to coact with a cylindrical surface (1S) of a rotating cylinder (1). A plurality of fingers (35) are mounted on a beam (9), hinged around a rotation axis (37A) and configured to cumulatively form a housing seat (41) for the doctor blade (43). The fingers (35) are pivotable independently from one another around the rotation axis (37A). At least one elastic thrust member (51) is configured and arranged to generate a thrust on the fingers (35) to make them pivot around the rotation axis (37A). Each finger (35) has a locking element (67), to rigidly lock the finger to the beam (9).
