Abstract
Abstract A device for coating traveling material webs wherein the coater features two opposite press rolls capable of forming therebetween a coating mixture sump. Each press roll features at its side opposite from the other press roll a coater provided with a doctor blade. In the application of sizing to the web, the last reversing roll in the direction of web travel is arranged above the press rolls. In the application of coating, to the web, the last reversing roll located in the direction of web travel before the first coater is arranged below the two press rolls.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 8
Claim 1
Independent Claim
200 words
A device for coating and sizing traveling webs comprising: two press roll oppositely disposed in essentially the same horizontal plane, said press rolls being movable relative to one another to define a sizing press gap therebetween adapted to receive the web therethrough and provide sizing of the web, at least one sizing feed means disposed above one of said press rolls upstream of said sizing press gap therebetween for feeding sizing between said one roll and the web, a coater assembly being coordinated with and disposed adjacent to at least one of said press rolls, said coater assembly including a doctor blade and a nozzle type applicator being arranged on the side of said one press roll facing away from the other press roll, a plurality of first reversing rollers adapted to direct the web into the sizing press gap between the press rolls wherein the last of said first rollers located upstream of the sizing press gap is positioned above the press rolls, and a plurality of second reverseing rollers adapted to direct the web into the coating assembly wherein the last one of said second rollers upstream of the coating assembly is positioned below the two press rolls.
Claim 2
Independent Claim
200 words
A device for coating and sizing traveling webs comprising: two press roll oppositely disposed in essentially the same horizontal plane, said press rolls being movable relative to one another to define a sizing press gap therebetween adapted to receive the web therethrough and provide sizing of the web, at least one sizing feed means disposed above one of said press rolls upstream of said sizing press gap therebetween for feeding sizing between said one roll and the web, a coater assembly being coordinated with and disposed adjacent to at least one of said press rolls, said coater assembly including a doctor blade and a nozzle type applicator being arranged on the side of said one press roll facing away from the other press roll, a plurality of first reversing rollers adapted to direct the web into the sizing press gap between the press rolls wherein the last of said first rollers located upstream of the sizing press gap is positioned above the press rolls, and a plurality of second reverseing rollers adapted to direct the web into the coating assembly wherein the last one of said second rollers upstream of the coating assembly is positioned below the two press rolls.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
35 words
The device of claim 1 wherein said coater assembly further comprises a roll support supporting each press roll, and said doctor blade pivotally mounted to the roll support of its corresponding said one press roll.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
19 words
The device of claim 1 further comprising a drying means, positioned above the press rolls, for drying the web.
Claim 5
Independent Claim
197 words
A device for coating and sizing a traveling material web comprising: a pair of press rolls oppositely disposed in the same general horizontal plane and being movable relative to each other to define a sizing press gap therebetween adapted to receive the web therethrough and provide sizing of the web, sizing feed means dispossed in spaced relation above each of said press rolls upstream of said sizing press gap therebetween for feeding sizing between said each roll and respective opposite side of the web, a coater assembly disposed adjacent to and coordinated with each of said press rolls wherein each coater assembly includes a doctor blade and a nozzle type applicator being positioned on the side of its corresponding press roll away from the other press roll, one of said coater assemblies being located downstream of the other coater assembly with respect to the direction of travel of the web, and a plurality of reversing rollers adapted to direct the web into both coater assemblies and the sizing press gap between the press rolls, the last one of said rollers upstream of the sizing press gap and the downstream coater assembly being positioned above the press rolls.
Claim 6
Independent Claim
197 words
A device for coating and sizing a traveling material web comprising: a pair of press rolls oppositely disposed in the same general horizontal plane and being movable relative to each other to define a sizing press gap therebetween adapted to receive the web therethrough and provide sizing of the web, sizing feed means dispossed in spaced relation above each of said press rolls upstream of said sizing press gap therebetween for feeding sizing between said each roll and respective opposite side of the web, a coater assembly disposed adjacent to and coordinated with each of said press rolls wherein each coater assembly includes a doctor blade and a nozzle type applicator being positioned on the side of its corresponding press roll away from the other press roll, one of said coater assemblies being located downstream of the other coater assembly with respect to the direction of travel of the web, and a plurality of reversing rollers adapted to direct the web into both coater assemblies and the sizing press gap between the press rolls, the last one of said rollers upstream of the sizing press gap and the downstream coater assembly being positioned above the press rolls.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim
31 words
