Abstract

Disclosed is a device for forming an extended nip between a counter roll and a shoe roll for machining a material web, wherein the shoe roll has a support and a flexible roll shell, which can rotate around the support (4) and which rests in the region of the extended nip upon a head surface of a press shoe guided on the support, and the press shoe displaceably rests on the support in order to generate a press pressure via a pressure chamber to which fluid can be applied, the pressure chamber is disposed as a pressure pad, on which the press shoe rests surficially on the rear side, wherein the pressure pad is inserted into a groove-like chamber, wherein the press shoe has a stamp-like section on the rear side, which stamp-like section descends into an invaginable pressure pad in order to perform reciprocating movements, and the pressure pad is guidedly supported on the groove-like chamber along a pressure pad lateral wall that forms a roll wall.
