Clutch mechanism for a printing press

摘要

A clutch mechanism for a printing press (10) having a shaft (14) having a cylindrical outer surface (36) adjacent one end (28) of the shaft (14 ). The mechanism has a device (15) for rotatably driving the shaft (14) and a drive member (32) having a cylindrical bore (34), with the one end (28) of the shaft (14) being received in the bore (34) of the drive member (32) such that the drive member (32) rotates on the shaft (14), with the drive member (32) having a clutch surface (30). The mechanism has a device (26) and (23) for coupling the shaft (14) with the clutch surface (30) of the drive member (32).
