Abstract
Abstract An apparatus for the regulation of the coating thickness in the coating of continuous webs of material has a doctor-roll which bears on the coated side of the web and which is supported in a shape-retaining, wear-resistant doctor-roll bed. The doctor-roll bed is elastically joined to a stationary frame of the apparatus in such a manner that it is removably mounted for replacement independent of the remainder of the elastic joint.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 13
Claim 1
Independent Claim
101 words
In an apparatus for the regulation of the coating thickness in the coating of continuous webs of material having a doctor roll which bears on the coated side of the web and which is supported in a shape-retaining, wear-resistant doctor-roll bed and means elastically joining the doctor-roll bed to a stationary frame, the improvement wherein the elastic joining means comprises an elastically deformable mount and means removably mounting the doctor roll bed in the mount for replacement of the doctor-roll bed independent of the mount and biasing means for deforming the mount to move the doctor-roll into contact with a web.
