It is also known to provide such a cutting drum with exchangeable format parts which form the peripheral surface of the cutting drum. By exchanging the format parts, the cutting roller can then determine the format and / or the size of the cutting roller in relation to the arrangement and / or distribution and / or number of vacuum openings and / or with regard to the arrangement and / or number of its counter blades cooperating with a knife shaft Container to be applied labels are optimally adapted.
  • the format parts are formed as segments of a solid cylinder having a circular cylindrical peripheral surface and are fastened by radial screwing to a carrier.
  • the disadvantage here is u.a. the high mass weight of such cutting rollers.
  • the replacement of the format parts by loosening and restoring the fittings is time-consuming and cumbersome.
  • the object of the invention is to show a transport roller, in particular cutting roller, in which the format parts can be quickly replaced without much effort.
  • a transport roller is formed according to claim 1.
  • the transport roller according to the invention is preferably the cutting roller of the labeling unit for processing roll-feed labels.

In the region of the lower edge 15.1 or 16.1 of the format part 15 and 16, respectively, the vacuum channels 18 open into a distributor channel 18.1, which is open toward this lower side (FIG. 3). At the top of the vacuum channels 18 forming holes are sealed only in the use of pins 18.2.
  • a set of different format parts 15 and 16 is respectively provided, which are identical in terms of their shape, but in which the distribution and / or number of the vacuum port 17 is different, according to the format of the labels 3, to be processed with the relevant format part 15 and 16 respectively.
  • the cutting roller 10 further consists inter alia of a shaft 19 which is rotatably mounted in two spaced apart by columns 20 boards 21 and 22, with the upper end in the board 21.
  • the lower end of the shaft 19 is above the board 21 facing away from the underside of the board 22 and is there provided with a gear 23 for driving this shaft and thus the cutting roller 10.
  • Between the two boards 21 and 22 is located with the shaft 19 circumferentially formed by the two format parts 15 and 16 and the strip-like counter blade 14 parts of the cutting roller 10.
  • a circular disk-shaped support member 24 is fixed, which lies with its axis coaxially with the axis of the shaft 19 and which is provided on the side facing away from the board 22 surface side with the axis of the shaft 19 enclosing annular contours 24.1.
  • the counter blade 14 as well as the used format parts 14 and 15 are supported with their lower end face 15.1 or 16.1, in such a way that contours formed in the region of these end faces form fit into the contours
  • a clamping and tensioning device 25 is provided thereon, with which the counter blade 14 as well as the respectively used format parts 15 and 16 on the shaft 19 and on the support member 24 and also on the clamping and Clamping device 25 are held releasably again by clamping or clamping, in such a way that the format parts 15 and 16 are clearly spaced with its inner surface of the shaft, the cutting roller 10 thus practically forms a hollow cylinder with reduced mass.
  • the clamping and clamping device 25 comprises in the embodiment shown in particular in Figures 3 and 4, a clamping disc 26 which is arranged coaxially with the axis of the shaft 19 formed at its upper end as a hollow shaft and displaceable in the axial direction of the shaft 19 by a certain amount (Double arrow D).
