Abstract:
Load roll arrangement for loading a winding arrangement with one wound roll, during the winding of a web-like material onto winding cores in a multiple-drum winder that comprises support drums, rotating about horizontal axes, which are parallel to each other and closely arranged side by side, wherein the support drums form a winding bed, in which the winding arrangement, rotating about its axis, is supported, with a support beam with drive means for moving the support beam vertically depending on the wound roll diameter, with a multipart load roll, essentially parallel to the axes of the support drums, consisting of a number of load rollers, which, individually with respect to the support beam, are vertically movable on a mounting arrangement and can be maintained in contact with the wound roll along a nip and with means for the fluid-like pressing of the load rollers against the winding arrangement, characterized by an additional adjustment device, by means of which the mounting arrangements of the individual load rollers can be moved to different heights between upper and lower positions, independently of each other with respect to the support beam according to the specifications of the resulting differences in diameter of the winding cores along a slide guide by means of the adjustment device, with the adjustment arrangement for each individual load roller comprising an adjustment unit, engaging the respective mounting arrangement and the vertical displacement of the mounting arrangement respectively takes place by means of one connecting rod, vertically gripping through the support beam, displaced by the adjustment unit, and engaging the mounting arrangement, with the mounting arrangement pressed in a resilient manner into the mounting arrangement upper Position adjacent to the support beam.
