Abstract
A cleaning device is attached at each end to shoulders pivoting on a pair of parallel arms hinged at the other end to the side walls of a machine. There pivots on at least one of the arms an assembly of pneumatic actuators, which actuators pivot at the other end on a lug integral with one of the shoulders, which shoulders are provided with spindles or rollers that run in cam paths formed in plates attached to the side walls. The cleaning device can be oriented and positioned against either of the two cylinders to be cleaned or can be set in a position remote from both of these cylinders. Mounted on at least one of the arms or on both of the shoulders are idle rollers designed to engage with corresponding cams, so that the cleaning device is moved away automatically whenever it passes over the clamps.
