  • Patent number: 5823463
    Abstract: A winding machine for a continuous web includes at least two support rollers defining a bed for the wound web. At least one roller has a rotatable, perforated roller shell. A stationary pressure box disposed inside the roller shell which is opened toward the inner surface of the perforated shell and is connectable to a source of pressure air. A further longitudinally extending packing closes the bottom of the gap between the first and second rollers. Longitudinal packings at the pressure box define a pressure zone extending approximately from the further packing to the place where the round roll lies on the one support roller. A suction zone is defined at the support roller upstream in the direction of roll shell rotation from the pressure zone. A grid of walls along the pressure zone in the pressure box define axially shorter length individually pressurizable zones connectable to a pressure source. In an alternate embodiment, three support rollers define two roll beds.

  • Patent number: 5020242
    Abstract: A guide roll for a porous belt, for instance for the drying wire of a paper machine, is described. A perforated roll shell rotates about a stationary air guide box. The guide box has two air chambers which extend across the length of the guide roll. One air chamber serves the discharge of blowing air and the other air chamber serves the intake and removal of suction air. Contained between the air guide box and the roll shell is an annular space in which a blowing zone and a suction zone are defined by longitudinal seals. Considering that blowing air and suction air may have different temperatures, the two air chambers of the air guide box are movable axially relative to each other.

  • Patent number: 4834018
    Abstract: A coating device where the pressurized coating space formed between the doctor element and the material web and/or the counter roll carrying it is defined by a regulating plate on the inlet side relative to the material web. A guide device is so arranged in the coating space that coating mixture will circulate around it on all sides in one direction of rotation. The guide device generally leaves only relatively narrow flow channels open in the coating chamber so that harmful turbulent flows are extensively avoided which through pulsating air inclusions might lead to defects in the applied coating.

  • Patent number: 4795106
    Abstract: A clamping head is equipped with angular spreading bodies which engage a winding core. Impingement of the winding core end face on a stop moves the spreading bodies longitudinally on a bevel of the clamping head core against spring force, thereby spreading the spreading bodies so as to engage the inside circumference of the winding core. To that end, the clamping head features a sleeve-shaped part which centers the winding core and is provided with longitudinally extending slots for the angular spreading bodies. A shank of each spreading body, extends radially outward, forms at least indirectly the stop for the winding core end face. Longitudinally movable in the slot, the other shank of the spreading body has a projection which protrudes radially inward and interacts with the bevel of the clamping head core so as to cause the shank to move beyond the peripheral surface of the sleeve-shaped part as the projection runs onto the bevel.
