Abstract
Apparatus for the compressive handling of a strip of material, especially for handling paper strip in a paper machine, includes a plurality of cooperating horizontal and vertical roller pairs arranged in ascending and/or descending step-like succession and forming compressive zones through which the strip of material passes. Certain rollers are movably mounted so that they may be pivoted away from the compressive zone for replacement during operation of the paper machine. Cable guides are provided for leading the strip through the compressive zones and, owing to the movable mounting arrangement of the rollers, the course of the cable guides through the compressive zones need not be altered when a roller is exchanged.
Claims10
An apparatus for the compressive handling of a strip of material, especially a strip of paper, comprising:
- at least five rollers arranged on substantially parallel axes, said rollers being arranged to cooperate with each other in pairs;
- means for movably mounting at least one roller of each pair so as to change the size of a compressive zone between two rollers;
- said rollers being arranged to form at least two successive steps;
- and
- cable means for guiding the strip between rotational axes of each pair of rollers.
