  • Clamping gripper with resultant force through contact point
    Patent number: 4873926
    Abstract: A clamping gripper for sheet-fed rotary printing presses wherein tensions produced in the paper by adhesion forces of the blanket do not react in run-on shifts of the center of a main gripper member mounted for rotation with a fit clearance on the gripper shaft. A spring is so disposed, and the bearing plane and the gripper support surface are so inclined relative to one another, that the resultant force due to the spring force, thrust and bearing load intersect the gripper finger at the transfer point.
