Abstract
Two rollers (1 & 2) rotate in opposite directions. One roller is stationary and the other travels toward and away from it along a bed. One roller (1) has a journal (5) at one end and the other roller a journal (6) at the same end. A transmission (7) is mounted over the first journal and another transmission (8) over the second journal. Two pairs of torque supports are fastened to the transmission housings. The torque supports (9 & 12) fastened to the housing of the transmission associated with the first roller are connected by a tierod (17) at two points (13 & 15). The torque supports (10 & 11) fastened to the housing of the transmission associated with the second roller are connected by a tierod (18) at two other points (14 & 16). All the points of articulation are on one side of a midplane (19) extending through the longitudinal axes of the rollers.
