Abstract: A roll arrangement is described with a rotatable roll jacket, a fixed carrier and a multi-part support arrangement disposed between the roll jacket and the carrier and consisting of sliding shoes which are movable in the radial direction relative to the roll jacket. In this arrangement neighboring sliding shoes in the axial direction and/or in the circumferential direction of the roll jacket are biased towards one another groupwise in gap-free manner while maintaining relative movability.

Abstract: A roll arrangement with a rotatable roll jacket, in particular an elastic roll jacket, a rotationally fixed carrier, and at least one support arrangement disposed between the roll jacket and the carrier, with the support arrangement having a foot associated with the carrier and a sliding shoe supported on the foot and movable radially relative to the roll jacket, with the sliding shoe having a support surface associated with the roll jacket which, in operation, always ensures good contact of the support surface of the sliding shoe against the roll jacket to be supported in that the foot is displaceably supported on the carrier and the support arrangement is made of at least two-part design and contains a tilting support which permits tilting of the sliding shoe relative to the carrier.
