Abstract
Wear-replaceable resilient cover structure, or jacket, for the known-diameter cylindrical surface of an elongate, known-length anvil roll in a veneer clipper. The cover structure includes an elongate, internal, tubular, cylindrical armature having inside and outside diameters which are each larger than an anvil roll's surface's known diameter, and an elongate, tubular, cylindrical resiliency sleeve which embeddedly receives, and is stabilized by, the armature. The sleeve possesses inside and outside diameters which are, respectively, less than and greater than those of the armature, and the sleeve's inside diameter is sized to promote non-bonding, resistive slide-on/slide-off fitment of the armature-stabilized sleeve relative to a clipper anvil roll's cylindrical surface.
Claims5
Wear-replaceable resilient cover structure for the known-diameter cylindrical surface of an elongate, known-length anvil roll in a veneer clipper comprising
- an elongate, tubular, cylindrical armature having inside and outside diameters which are each larger than such an anvil roll's surface's known diameter, wherein said armature is formed to have perforations, and
- an elongate, tubular, cylindrical resiliency sleeve embeddedly receiving, and stabilized by, said armature and possessing inside and outside diameters which are, respectively, less than and greater than those of said armature wherein said sleeve includes sleeve material extending into and through said perforations,
- said sleeve's said inside diameter being sized to promote non-bonding resistance slide-on/slide-off fitment of said armature-stabilized sleeve relative to the anvil roll's cylindrical surface.
