Abstract

A coating device for applying a thin wet film to a carrier has a slit die on which at least one flexible lip comprising a flat strip is firmly clamped. The flat strip projects beyond a leading edge of the slit die and is fixed by a clamping strip which is screwed to the inclined outside of a rigid upper lip of the slit die by means of a clamping screw. A locking pin arranged parallel to the clamping screw in the upper lip penetrates the lip and fixes it in its position together with the clamping screw, which also penetrates the flexible lip.
