Abstract: A support is provided for a flexible bend in a revolving flat card, the flat card having a cylinder and a cylinder axis. The support has at least three bearing points, with each bearing point comprising a bearing bolt and an adjusting lever. At each bearing point, the flexible bend is held on the bearing bolt such that a rotational motion of the bearing bolt brings about a displacement of the flexible bend radially with respect to the cylinder axis. Each bearing bolt has a bearing bolt axis, a fastening portion, a moving portion, and a contact surface for contact with the flexible bend. The contact surface is formed by a surface that spirals around the bearing bolt axis.

Abstract: The invention relates to a support of a flexible bend (7) in a revolving flat card (1) comprising a cylinder (4) and a cylinder axis. The support comprises at least three bearing points (20), each of which has a bearing bolt (21) and an adjusting lever (26). The flexible bend (7) is held, at each bearing point (20), on the bearing bolt (21) in such a way that a rotational motion (22) of the bearing bolt (21) brings about a displacement of the flexible bend (7) radially with respect to the cylinder axis. The bearing bolt (21) has a bearing bolt axis (25), a fastening portion (23), a moving portion (22), and a contact surface (24) for the contact of the flexible bend (7). The contact surface (24) is formed by a surface, which spirals around the bearing bolt axis (25).
