Abstract

A supporting roller bearing for a rotary drum comprises a supporting roller, supporting on its outer surface a circumferential running surface of the rotary drum. The supporting roller is mounted with axial clearance. A measuring device determines the particular axial position of the supporting roller and is connected by way of a control unit to an adjusting arrangement to alter the angle between the axis of the supporting roller and the axis of the rotary drum as a function of the measured axial position of the supporting roller.
