Abstract
A dampening unit for a printing press contains a first roller and a second roller that together form a slip gap. The dampening unit is distinguished in that a pivot axis, about which the first roller is pivotably supported against the second roller, extends through a center axis of the first roller and substantially parallel to a tangential line that is located on a line L which extends through the slip gap.
Claims13
A dampening unit for a printing press, comprising:
- a first roller having a center axis;
- a second roller jointly forming a slip gap with said first roller, said first roller being swivably mounted about a pivot axis for positioning said first roller in relationship to said second roller, said pivot axis located such that a line extending through said pivot axis and through said center axis of said first roller is substantially parallel to a tangential line running through said slip gap;
- and
- a force storing device supplying an elastic force for resiliently biasing said first roller against said second roller.
