Abstract
An inking unit for a rotary printing machine, a frame and a plurality of rollers. The plurality of rollers includes two inking rollers fixedly mounted to the frame so as to be spaced from one another, and a transfer roller mounted between the two inking rollers. Bearing levers are pivotably mounted to one of the two inking rollers. The transfer roller is mounted to the bearing levers so as to be pivotable between an operating position between the two inking rollers and a pivoted-out position away from the two inking rollers. Roller holders are provided for adjustably holding the transfer roller on the bearing levers. Finally, an apparatus is provided for compensating for the holding weight of the transfer roller and the bearing levers during pivoting.
