摘要

An anti-deflection roll including a rotating roll sleeve, a support member or yoke that extends along the axis of the roll sleeve or jacket, and a plurality of hydrostatic and/or hydrodynamic support units, partially positioned within the support member and arranged in a predetermined spaced relation to each other, to support the roll sleeve in an axial direction. Between an inner surface of the roll sleeve and a support surface of each support unit an intermediate fluid coating layer may be formed.
