Abstract

An induction heating winding structure 5 is installed inside a hollow roller 1, which is closed at its opposite ends by flanges 2A, 2B. Driving shafts 4A, 4B integral with the flanges having coaxial holes are rotatably supported. The induction heating winding structure 5 is supported at its opposite side by support rods 9A, 9B. The support rods are in the coaxial holes 10A, 10B of the driving shafts through bearings. The roller 1 and flanges 2A, 2B are fastened together through taper fit. When it is desired to release the roller 1 from the flanges, the driving shafts and the support rods are temporarily fastened and one driving shaft 4B is supported in a cantilever manner. The roller 1 is mounted on a transport mechanism for mounting and dismounting.
