Abstract
Abstract A device for treating material webs includes first and second neighboring drying cylinders separated by an intermediate space. The intermediate space has a length substantially equal to about twice the diameter of the largest of the first and second cylinders. The device includes at least a first deflecting roll disposed in the intermediate space and in a path of a material web conveyed through the device. The device further includes at least a second deflecting roll disposed below a coating device and above the intermediate space. The second deflecting roll is adapted to feed a web of material upwardly into the coating device.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 7
Claim 1
Independent Claim
99 words
A device for treating material webs comprising first and second neighboring drying cylinders separated by an intermediate space, said intermediate space having a length equal to at most twice the diameter of at least one of the first and second cylinders, at least a first deflecting roll disposed in the intermediate space and in a path of a material web being conveyed through the device, and at least a second deflecting roll disposed below a coating device and above the intermediate space, said second deflecting roll being adapted to introduce a web of material upwardly into the coating device.
Claim 2
Independent Claim
99 words
A device for treating material webs comprising first and second neighboring drying cylinders separated by an intermediate space, said intermediate space having a length equal to at most twice the diameter of at least one of the first and second cylinders, at least a first deflecting roll disposed in the intermediate space and in a path of a material web being conveyed through the device, and at least a second deflecting roll disposed below a coating device and above the intermediate space, said second deflecting roll being adapted to introduce a web of material upwardly into the coating device.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
99 words
The device of claim 1 wherein the coating device comprises at least two web guide rolls and wherein a plane running through a rotational axis of each guide roll deviates at most 20° from the horizontal and that at most one application device cooperates with a cylindrical surface of each web guide roll, the application device being adapted to transfer a coating material onto the cylindrical surface of the respective web guide roll, the roll being adapted to transport the coating into a press-gap formed between the two web guide rolls and then onto a material web conveyed therethrough.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
15 words
The device of claim 1 wherein the coating device is disposed above the drying cylinders.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
40 words
The device of claim 1 comprising upper and lower rows of drying cylinders and wherein one of the first and second drying cylinders is disposed in the upper row and the other drying cylinder is disposed in the lower row.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim
73 words
The device of claim 4 wherein with respect to the direction of conveyance of a web of material through the device, the first drying cylinder is disposed upstream of the intermediate space and the second drying cylinder is disposed downstream of the intermediate space and two deflecting rolls are disposed in the intermediate space and are adapted to convey a material web directly from the first drying cylinder to the second drying cylinder.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim
27 words
The device of claim 5 wherein the first drying cylinder is disposed in the upper row and the second drying cylinder is disposed in the lower row.
