Sheath Provided With A Corrugated Edge For A Pressing Device

A sheath for a pressing device, the sheath comprising:

• a cylindrical circumferential face having a circumferential face radius;
• an annular bearing resiliently mounted to at least one axial end of the sheath in a spring elastic manner, the annular bearing having a smaller radius than the circumferential face radius;
• and
• a bellows-shaped transition region extending at the at least one axial end of the sheath from the cylindrical circumferential face to the annular bearing.

A pressing device, comprising:

• a cylindrical circumferential face having a circumferential face radius;
• a sheath having a sheath circumferential face and at least one axial end;
• at least one end of the sheath resiliently mounted to an annular bearing in a spring elastic manner, the annular bearing having a smaller radius than the circumferential face radius;
• and
• a bellows-shaped transition region extending at the at least one axial end of the sheath from the sheath circumferential face to the annular bearing.

A method of attaching a sheath to a pressing device, comprising:

• arranging the sheath having a sheath circumferential face and at least one axial end at least partially around the pressing device having a cylindrical circumferential face having a circumferential face radius;
• resiliently mounting at least one end of the sheath to an annular bearing in a spring elastic manner, the annular bearing having a smaller radius than the circumferential face radius;
• and
• forming a bellows-shaped transition region extending at the at least one axial end of the sheath from the sheath circumferential face to the annular bearing.
