SPREADING DEVICE, METHOD FOR SPREADING A FLAT MATERIAL WEB, SPREADING ROLLER, AND USE OF AN INDIVIDUAL SPREADING ELEMENT ON SUCH A SPREADING ROLLER

摘要

The invention relates to a spreading device for spreading a flat material web with a main spreading direction, comprising an elastically deformable support part for arranging on a rotational body and comprising a plurality of elastically deformable individual spreading elements for achieving a spreading effect oriented in the main spreading direction, wherein each individual spreading element has a contact surface region with a contact surface for interacting with the flat material web on the individual spreading element free end facing away from the support part, and the second end facing away from the free end is arranged on the support part. The spreading device is designed such that each individual spreading element can be tilted at least partly or completely in the direction of the free end under the effect of centrifugal forces.
