Abstract
For a roller mounted on roller bearings in a roller stand, a hydrostatic support element is provided directly next to the roller bearing. The support element applies an additional force sufficient to assure proper rolling movement of the roller bearing bodies of the roller bearing when there is insufficient weight on the roller bearing to assure proper rolling movement. Alternatively, when great force is applied to the roller, the support element can alleviate the force applied to the roller bearing.
Claims10
A roller for a calander comprising;
- a cylindrical roller body which is rotatably mounted at both ends on roller bearings in a roller stand;
- support devices adjacent to the roller bearings, the devices arranged so that they are on at least one side of the roller bearings when viewed in the axial direction;
- the devices engaging with the roller body on one side and with the roller stand on an opposite side, wherein the devices exert a force which runs radially and in the plane of effect.
An apparatus for reducing wear on roller bearings with roller bearing bodies, where the roller bearings rotatably support a roller for a calendar, comprising;
- at least one support device;
- the support device located adjacent a roller bearing, the support device producing a controllable force,
- wherein the controllable force is applied to a surface of the roller.
