US 12,630,978 B2 · Method for manufacturing a support body arrangement, and a support body arrangement

Abstract

The present invention relates to a method for manufacturing a support body arrangement for an apparatus having an extended nip formed between the support body and a counter-pressure member, wherein the method comprises: providing a base body (51) comprising at least one pressure chamber configured to be pressurized for controlled expanding of the base body in a first direction; providing a support body (52) comprising a working surface (15) for forming an extended nip with a counter-pressure member; providing a mounting structure (53); mounting the support body (52) on the base body (51) by applying the mounting structure (53) so that movement of the support body (52) in relation to the base body (51) is prevented, wherein the support body (52) is placed on the base body (51) so that the working surface (15) faces away from the base body (51). The invention also relates to a support body arrangement.

A method for manufacturing a support body arrangement for a paper machine having an extended nip formed between the support body and a counter-pressure member, wherein the method comprises:

providing (101) a base body (51) comprising an upper surface (51′) and at least one pressure chamber (18) that is configured to be pressurized for controlled expanding of the base body in a first direction (D),
providing (102) a support body (52) comprising a lower surface (52′) and a working surface (15) for forming an extended nip with a counter-pressure member,
providing (103) a mounting structure (53) that is positioned on each of the upper and lower surfaces (51′, 52′) and that is located intermediate portions of the base and support body (51, 52) other than directly contacting upper and lower surfaces (51′, 52′) thereof, and
mounting (104) the support body (52) on the base body (51) such that the upper and lower surfaces (51′, 52′) are in direct contact with one another by applying the mounting structure (53) so that movement of the support body (52) in relation to the base body (51) is prevented, wherein the support body (52) is mounted on the base body (51) so that the working surface (15) faces away from the base body (51).
