  • Patent number: 5143573
    Abstract: A device and method for applying a flexible layer to rollers, as used in graphics machines, such as printing presses or coating machines, whose roller bodies consist of a carrying tube (3). A tubular, flexible body (14) is provided which is pushed over a support tube (1) that is axially connected to a transition piece (2) and a carrying tube (3). In the area of the transition piece (2), compressed air is admitted and is discharged at a discharge force, to generate an air cushion (15) between the tubular, flexible body (14) and the carrying tube (3), over which the tubular, flexible body (14) is pushed.

  • Patent number: 5114523
    Abstract: A method and device for adhesive rolls for a roll-reversing mechanism of web-processing machines, particularly w-fed [rotary] printing presses. A flexible tube-shaped piece (14) consisting of a soft elastic material is shifted onto a support tube (1), which is axially joined with a transition piece (2) and a tube support (3). In the region of transition piece (2), compressed air, which has been introduced, flows out, to creates an air cushion (15) between the flexible tube-shaped piece (14) and the tube support (3) onto which the flexible tube-shaped piece (14) is shifted.
