Abstract: A pair of support blocks of similar construction are connected together by a flexible strap extending therebetween. Each support block includes a platform for engaging a floor surface and a support plate positioned on the platform, and an end portion of the strap extends between the support plate and the platform of each support block. The support plate of each of the support blocks is hingedly connected to its platform and includes an upwardly facing support surface sloped downwardly toward the opposite support block whereby a cylindrical roll or the like can be placed on and supported by the support blocks, with the support blocks forming wedges on opposite sides of the cylindrical roll.

Abstract: A lightweight plyable heat and noise end panel insulator panel is mounted to the exterior surface of the axial end wall of a temperature controlled cylinder. The insulator panel comprises multiple layers of heat and noise insulation material and relatively non-stretchable material stitched and grommeted together whereby a pattern of pockets are formed to hold the fragile heat insulation in place. The panel defines a central opening and a slot extending from the central opening through the outer peripheral edge portion so that the panel can be positioned about the axle of the cylinder.

Abstract: A lightweight pliable heat and noise insulator blanket is mounted to the exterior surface of the axial end wall of a temperature controlled cylinder with band clamps that grasp adjacent ones of the connector screws that hold the end panel to the cylinder. The insulator blanket comprises multiple layers of heat and noise insulation material, and the blanket defines a central opening and a slot extending from the central opening through the outer peripheral edge portion so that the blanket can be positioned about the axle of the rotary cylinder. The band clamps each include a band formed in a closed shape for positioning about adjacent ones of the connector screws of the rotary cylinder, and a mounting block positioned between the connector screws.

Abstract: A lightweight pliable heat and noise insulator blanket is mounted to the exterior surface of the axial end wall of a temperature controlled cylinder. The insulator blanket comprises multiple layers of heat and noise insulation material, and the blanket defines a central opening and a slot extending from the central opening through the outer peripheral edge portion so that the blanket can be positioned about the axle of the rotary cylinder. The insulator blanket includes an annular protrusion just inwardly of its outer periphery for placement against the exterior surface of the axial end wall of the rotary cylinder to form a seal between the insulator blanket and the rotary cylinder. The outer peripheral portion of the insulator blanket extends about the connector screws of the rotary cylinder while the annular seal of the insulator blanket is urged by centrifugal force toward a sealed relationship between the insulator blanket and the axial end wall of the rotary cylinder.
