Abstract
A set of ribs in a dewatering device in a paper machine for supporting and/or loading at least one wire in the paper machine and/or doctoring water from the inner face(s) of the at least one wire. The set of ribs includes at least two cross-direction ribs placed at a distance from one another in the machine direction and whose height positions are adjustable. The ribs of the set of ribs are interconnected in pairs by intermediate parts, and by crank mechanisms placed at a distance from one another in the cross direction of the at least one wire so that the ribs are loadable independently from one another.
