Drive device for an eccentric bearing, and corresponding calender

ActiveEP4522420B1Rotary bearingsShafts
The invention relates to a drive device for an eccentric bearing for radially deflecting a roller mounted therein, the eccentric bearing comprising a bore which is oriented in an axial direction and intended for accommodating a roller journal of a roller, and the eccentric bearing comprising an outer eccentric bushing and an inner eccentric bushing which is partially inserted into the outer eccentric bushing and has the bore, such that the eccentric bushings have an axial overlap region, characterized in that at least one of the eccentric bushings has a free end outside the overlap region, which free end is coupled to a drive unit via which the at least one eccentric bushing is rotatable about the axial direction in order to adjust a radial axial deflection of the bore with respect to the other eccentric bushing. The invention also relates to a corresponding calender.
