ABSTRACT:
A bearing arrangement for an ink fountain in a rotary printing machine is disclosed. An ink fountain roller is carried in bearings in the side frames of the printing machine. Ball bearings are secured to support journals of the roller interiorly of the side frames and carry supporting rings which have grooved peripheral surfaces. An ink fountain is resiliently pivotably carried by the side frames and is secured to the roller journals. Securement is accomplished by flexible wire rope or the like which is secured at one end to the ink fountain, passes around the periphery of the supporting rings carried by the roller journals and is held by an over-center latch on the ink fountain. Actuation of the latch secures the ink fountain to the roller. The bearing arrangement in accordance with the present invention reduces ink fountain roller deflection and gives more uniform ink application.
