Abstract
Box machine forming wheels are individually stabilized with a respective, frame mounted, stationary yoke meshed within the circumferential groove of a head wheel that is rigidly secured to the forming wheel. Lateral space between the stationary yoke finger faces and the rotating groove walls is adjustably filled by cam displaced disc pads confined within yoke finger guide bores. Selective cam rotation expands the disc pad assembly for operational wear accommodation.
