COUNTERPOISE DEVICE AND METHOD FOR CANTILEVERED PRINTING PRESS CYLINDERS

摘要

A counterpoise device (10) for cantilevering at least one cylinder (70) of a printing press has a movable counterpoise element (20) for selectively contacting the cylinder and a stationary mount (40). A guide link (16) rotatably attaches to the stationary mount plate and rotatably attaches to the movable counterpoise element. An actuating device is connected to the movable counterpoise device at a different location than the guide link (16) for moving the counterpoise device with respect to the cylinder (70).
