Abstract
Abstract Glue roller for use in labeling machines and the like, comprising a metal hub, a tubelike support body fixed on the hub, and an elastic sleeve with a cylindrical outer surface seated on the support body. The support body is a first moulded part of foam material having sealed boundary zones, which is foamed directly onto the hub. The elastic sleeve is a second moulded part of elastic foam material with sealed boundary zones, which is foamed directly onto the support body. The support body and elastic sleeve are provided with interengaging projections and recesses which extend parallel to the axis of the roller.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 11
Claim 1
Independent Claim
162 words
Glue roller for labeling machines, with a metal hub for rotationally fixed mounting on a drive shaft, a tubelike support body fixed on the hub and with an elastic sleeve, having a cylindrical outer surface, seated on the support body, the hub and the support body being provided with interengaging recesses and projections, characterized in that the support body (6) is formed by a first moulded part of foam material having sealed boundary zones, which is foamed directly onto the hub (1), that the elastic sleeve (11) is formed by a second moulded part of elastic foam material with sealed boundary zones (13), which is foamed directly on the support body (6), that the foam material of the support body (6) has a lower elasticity than the foam material of the sleeve (11), and that the support body (6) and the elastic sleeve (11) are provided with interengaging projections (10) and recesses (12) which extend parallel to the axis of the roller.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
162 words
Glue roller for labeling machines, with a metal hub for rotationally fixed mounting on a drive shaft, a tubelike support body fixed on the hub and with an elastic sleeve, having a cylindrical outer surface, seated on the support body, the hub and the support body being provided with interengaging recesses and projections, characterized in that the support body (6) is formed by a first moulded part of foam material having sealed boundary zones, which is foamed directly onto the hub (1), that the elastic sleeve (11) is formed by a second moulded part of elastic foam material with sealed boundary zones (13), which is foamed directly on the support body (6), that the foam material of the support body (6) has a lower elasticity than the foam material of the sleeve (11), and that the support body (6) and the elastic sleeve (11) are provided with interengaging projections (10) and recesses (12) which extend parallel to the axis of the roller.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
18 words
Glue roller according to claim 1, characterized in that the elastic sleeve (11) comprises polyurethane integral foam material.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
20 words
Glue roller according to claim 1 or 2, characterized in that the support body (6) comprises polyurethane duromer foam material.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
142 words
A glue roller assembly for use in labeling machines and the like, said roller assembly comprising: an elongated generally cylindrical hub (1) for being rotated about its longitudinal axis, a first layer (6) of foam material having a predetermined hardness molded onto the outer surface of said hub, said first layer having an inner surface interfacing with said hub and a nonporous outer surface having axially spaced apart ends, a second layer (11) of elastic foam material having lesser hardness than said first layer molded onto said outer surface of said first layer, said second layer having an outer surface and having an inner surface interfacing with said outer surface of the first layer, said interfacing surfaces of said second layer and first layer being provided with interengaging projections (10) and recesses (12) which extend parallel to the axis of the roller.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim
142 words
A glue roller assembly for use in labeling machines and the like, said roller assembly comprising: an elongated generally cylindrical hub (1) for being rotated about its longitudinal axis, a first layer (6) of foam material having a predetermined hardness molded onto the outer surface of said hub, said first layer having an inner surface interfacing with said hub and a nonporous outer surface having axially spaced apart ends, a second layer (11) of elastic foam material having lesser hardness than said first layer molded onto said outer surface of said first layer, said second layer having an outer surface and having an inner surface interfacing with said outer surface of the first layer, said interfacing surfaces of said second layer and first layer being provided with interengaging projections (10) and recesses (12) which extend parallel to the axis of the roller.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim
27 words
The glue roller assembly as in claim 4 wherein said interfacing surfaces of said first layer and hub are provided with interengaging projections (7) and recesses (4).
Claim 8
Dependent Claim
75 words
The glue roller assembly as in claim 4 wherein: said second layer (11) of elastic material extends radially inwardly over one of said first layer ends and further extends integrally and axially to define a portion (15) which has a reduced outside diameter in comparison with the diameter of said outer surface of said second layer and then diverges to an axially adjacent and integral portion (16) of greater diameter than said reduced diameter portion.
Claim 9
Dependent Claim
42 words
The glue roller assembly as in claim 6 including a metal reinforcing ring (17) substantially radially coextensive with said radially inwardly extending material and embedded in said reduced diameter portion where said portion begins to extend from said radially inwardly extending material.
Claim 10
Dependent Claim
46 words
The glue roller assembly as in claim 6 wherein the other of said first layer (6) ends has a radially extending flange portion (14) molded internally with said layer and which interfaces with at least a part of an adjacent end of said second layer (11).
Claim 11
Dependent Claim
39 words
The glue roller assembly as in claim 8 including a metal reinforcing ring (9) embedded in said other of said first layer (6) ends and having a radially extending portion which interfaces with said radially extending flange portion (14).
