Abstract
A pressure-roller apparatus comprising two compression rollers providing a pressure nip therebetween for the introduction of sheets or other thin members to be compressed and fed. The degree of pressure in the nip is variable by means of one or more adjustment roller assemblies comprising adjustment rollers which are substantially shorter in length than said compression rollers and which engage one of said compression rollers at one or more points intermediate its ends to provide an intermediate and balanced pressure adjustment which avoids bowing of said compression roller.
