Abstract
Abstract A controlled-deflection roll having a stationary roll support or carrier and a tubular roll shell rotatable about the stationary roll support. The tubular roll shell bears upon the roll support or carrier through the intermediary of at least one bearing or support element. The roll shell is provided at its ends with guide members which are rotatably mounted in the roll shell and which are guided on the roll support in the direction of the pressing or contact movement or the disengaging or lift-off movement of the roll shell. The controlled-deflection roll is provided with a scraper device equipped with a scraper blade which, during operation, is in contact with the surface of the roll shell, and the scraper device is secured to the guide members.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 6
Claim 1
Independent Claim
129 words
A controlled-deflection roll comprising: a stationary roll support; a substantially tubular roll shell having an outer surface; means mounting said tubular roll shell to be rotatable about said stationary roll support; at least one bearing element by means of which the tubular roll shell bears on the roll support; said roll shell having opposed ends; said mounting means including guide members rotatably mounted in the roll shell and guided upon the roll support in the direction of the pressing or disengaging movement of the roll shell; a scraper device having a scraper blade provided for the controlled-deflection roll; said scraper blade, during operation of the controlled-deflection roll, being in contact with the outer surface of said roll shell; and means for securing the scraper device to the guide members.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
129 words
A controlled-deflection roll comprising: a stationary roll support; a substantially tubular roll shell having an outer surface; means mounting said tubular roll shell to be rotatable about said stationary roll support; at least one bearing element by means of which the tubular roll shell bears on the roll support; said roll shell having opposed ends; said mounting means including guide members rotatably mounted in the roll shell and guided upon the roll support in the direction of the pressing or disengaging movement of the roll shell; a scraper device having a scraper blade provided for the controlled-deflection roll; said scraper blade, during operation of the controlled-deflection roll, being in contact with the outer surface of said roll shell; and means for securing the scraper device to the guide members.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
49 words
The controlled-deflection roll as defined in claim 1, wherein: said securing means comprises retaining members provided for the guide members; said scraper device including a blade carrier secured to said retaining members; and said blade carrier extending axially of the roll shell from one end thereof to the other.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
19 words
The controlled-deflection roll as defined in claim 2, wherein: said blade carrier is rotatably mounted on said retaining members.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
68 words
The controlled-deflection roll as defined in claim 3, wherein: said securing means comprises a rotatable mounting for the scraper device; said rotatable mounting having an axis wherein said axis and the center of gravity of the blade carrier together with the scraper blade are selected such that said scraper blade is pressed under the action of the force of gravity onto the outer surface of the roll shell.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim
32 words
The controlled-deflection roll as defined in claim 3, further including: resilient means for exerting a pressure by means of which the scraper blade bears against the outer surface of the roll shell.
