Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 5
Claim 1
Independent Claim
196 words
In a web feeding or winding up device for use in connection with machines operating on a web, and comprising: base means, two lateral uprights, at least one pair of arms carried rotatably about a substantially horizontal axis between said two lateral uprights, a hollow tubular core, and means at the ends of said arms for supporting said core for winding up or feeding off a roll of web, the improvement comprising a motor mounted on the free end of at least one arm of said pair of arms for rotating said core carried by said arms about its longitudinal axis, said means for supporting said core comprising: a bar, radial support blocks on said bar for engaging the interior of said tubular core, a sleeve carried on one of said two arms, means defining internal axial splines on said sleeve, a plurality of radial teeth on one end of said bar engageable in said splines in said sleeve, a bearing housing carried by the other of said two arms, the other end of said bar carrying a bearing supported in said housing, and means for displacing said housing in the axial direction of said bar.
