A printing roller for a rotary press consists of a tubular, elastic, thin shell which is rigidly and tightly joined to the ends of the roller, the roller having peripheral chambers which contain a non-compressible fluid, and with means for displacing the fluid in order thus to increase the external diameter of the printing roller. The devices for displacing the fluid consist of a threaded spindle which can be screwed into a line which is operatively connected to chambers taking up the fluid. The threaded spindle is operatively connected to a coaxially arranged piston which can transmit a pressure force to the fluid in the chambers. The outer edges of the enveloping shell have two lateral enlargements to create a receptacle or a seat for the printing plate which is to be mounted thereon. The receptacle has a depth which corresponds to the thickness of the printing plate. In an advantageous manner, the outer edges of the edge enlargements are rounded. The enlargements can be produced by machining the shell, for example by removing material or by applying material; in the latter case, in an advantageous manner, by application of a material of the same type, having properties which are similar to those of the printing plate. For taking up printing plates which consist of plates wound up and fitted together at the ends, the shell has at least one longitudinal slot in which the butt joint of the printing plate is located and fixed.

In a printing machine, an arrangement for adjusting web register includes a frame detachably mounted on the machine, and a pair of guide rollers over which a web is guided. A downstream roller is raised and lowered, and both rollers, as well as a pair of frame members, are turned as a unitary assembly relative to the machine.

Printing apparatus with quickly changeable printing plate, the impression cylinder being mounted on the drive side of the machine and the remaining end of the impression cylinder being arranged to be freely floating in order to permit an unhindered attaching or fitting of the printing plate on the cylinder.

In a rotary printing machine, a pressure roller is mounted on a slide that is reciprocally and linearly moved along two mutually orthogonal directions in order to change impression cylinders.

The marginal portions of a printing plate for rotary printing are joined together to form a cylindrical printing plate, which can be mounted on a printing roller, for example, on a printing roller of extensible diameter. The joint is made by stripping the photosensitive coating of the printing plate at the two marginal portions forming a pocket in one marginal portion and inserting the other marginal portion, bent by about 90.degree., into the pocket. The joint can be made along a circumferential line of the cylinder or along a line which is inclined relative to the circumferential lines of the cylinder.The plate can be mounted with the bent-off and radially inwards-projecting marginal portions, or these marginal portions can be arranged at an inclination to the cylinder radius. The inlet between the two adjacent panels of the pocket is filled with a hardenable material. Thus, a joint is created which forms a continuous, smooth surface for the printing plate in the circumferential direction. The filling material can be removed after the printing plate has been used, so that storage of the printing plate as a flat plate becomes possible. Alternatively, the joint between the plate ends can also be made durable by introducing an adhesive between the marginal portions, in other thus to form a durable joint also in the axial direction.
