Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 3
Claim 1
Independent Claim
148 words
A medium retaining device in single faced corrugated cardboard manufacturing machines comprising: a pair of upper and lower corrugating rolls engaging with each other between which a medium is passed to form corrugations therein; a plurality of longitudinally spaced annular suction grooves formed in the lower corrugating roll along its peripheral surfaces; a plurality of suction manifolds formed in the lower corrugating roll extending longitudinally of the roll to intersect the annular suction grooves; sealing members arranged at both ends of the lower corrugating roll; a suction chamber formed in each sealing member and communicating with the suction manifolds to develop subatmospheric pressure in the annular suction grooves, thereby sucking the corrugated medium onto the roll; and a cover which covers that portion of the peripheral surface of the lower corrugating roll which is opposite to the portion of the roll surface on which the medium is carried.
Claim 2
Independent Claim
148 words
A medium retaining device in single faced corrugated cardboard manufacturing machines comprising: a pair of upper and lower corrugating rolls engaging with each other between which a medium is passed to form corrugations therein; a plurality of longitudinally spaced annular suction grooves formed in the lower corrugating roll along its peripheral surfaces; a plurality of suction manifolds formed in the lower corrugating roll extending longitudinally of the roll to intersect the annular suction grooves; sealing members arranged at both ends of the lower corrugating roll; a suction chamber formed in each sealing member and communicating with the suction manifolds to develop subatmospheric pressure in the annular suction grooves, thereby sucking the corrugated medium onto the roll; and a cover which covers that portion of the peripheral surface of the lower corrugating roll which is opposite to the portion of the roll surface on which the medium is carried.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
63 words
A medium retaining device as set forth in claim 1, wherein the suction chamber formed in the sealing member comprises an arcuate recess extending from the nip between the upper and lower corrugating rolls to the nip between the lower corrugating roll and a pressure roll along that portion of the surface of the lower roll on which the corrugated medium is carried.
