Abstract

A device for fixing a roller to a rotary shaft, particularly useful with supply and take-up rollers in a laminator device for printed circuit boards, in which only a single tightening operation is required to fix the roller to the shaft. A support member and a press member when assembled together fit inside an end of the roller. A manually rotatable screw threaded to the press member passes through a hole in the support and presses against a sleeve through which the shaft passes and which is press-fitted inside the support member. Guide plates hold the support member and press member in place.
