Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 4
Claim 1
Independent Claim
164 words
A printers roller including a metal core having a smooth outer peripheral surface of a certain diameter and continuous from end to end of the core, a tubular sleeve having a smooth internal surface of an inside diameter providing a close fit on the outer surface of said core and extending continuously substantially from end to end of said core, a tubular rubber sleeve vulcanized on the outer surface of said tubular sleeve and having a finish ground smooth outer surface and extending continuously substantially from end to end of said tubular sleeve, and removable means releasably securing said tubular sleeve on said core whereby said sleeve and the tubular rubber sleeve may be removed from the metal core as a unit, said means including a slot in the tubular sleeve at one end and a recessed way in the metal core at one end providing registering keyways in the tubular sleeve and in the metal core, and a removable key in said keyways.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
164 words
A printers roller including a metal core having a smooth outer peripheral surface of a certain diameter and continuous from end to end of the core, a tubular sleeve having a smooth internal surface of an inside diameter providing a close fit on the outer surface of said core and extending continuously substantially from end to end of said core, a tubular rubber sleeve vulcanized on the outer surface of said tubular sleeve and having a finish ground smooth outer surface and extending continuously substantially from end to end of said tubular sleeve, and removable means releasably securing said tubular sleeve on said core whereby said sleeve and the tubular rubber sleeve may be removed from the metal core as a unit, said means including a slot in the tubular sleeve at one end and a recessed way in the metal core at one end providing registering keyways in the tubular sleeve and in the metal core, and a removable key in said keyways.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
30 words
A printers roller as set forth in claim 1 wherein said tubular sleeve is fabricated from a plastic material selected from the group including polyethylene, polypropylene, polyvinyl chloride, and polystyrene.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
65 words
A printers roller as set forth in claim 2 wherein said tubular rubber sleeve has an inside diameter providing a close fit on the outer surface of said tubular sleeve, and a layer of adhesive in the area between the interior surface of said tubular rubber sleeve and the outer surface of said tubular sleeve providing a bond between said sleeves preventing relative movement thereof.
