Abstract
A printing cylinder holding apparatus for a printing machine, includes a pair of bearing holding members arranged on one of a pair of frames which rotatably support a printing cylinder via a pair of bearing members, respectively. One of the frames has a first opening for allowing a cylindrical printing member to be put on and out of the printing cylinder. The bearing holding members are movable between a holding position wherein the bearing holding members hold one of the bearing members and an unholding position wherein the bearing holding members release the one of the bearing members to form a second opening which is associated with the first opening for allowing the cylindrical printing member to be put in and out of the printing cylinder.
