End packing for a deflection compensated roll

The present invention relates to an end packing for a deflection compensated roll, said roll comprising a stationary shaft and a roll shell, bearing-mounted rotatably therearound and having each end thereof provided with a shaft-enclosing annular end cap, having its surface internal in the axial direction of the roll or its surface external in the axial direction formed with a sealing surface, and shaft-mounted bearing elements in each axial end zone of the roll shell inside the end cap. In a second aspect, the invention relates also to an end packing for a deflection compensated roll, said roll comprising a stationary shaft and a roll shell bearing-mounted rotatably therearound and having each end thereof provided with a shaft-enclosing annular end cap, having an external surface and an internal surface in the axial direction of the roll, said internal surface being formed with a sealing surface, and shaft-mounted bearing elements in each axial end zone of the roll shell inside the end cap, the roll end packing elements being mounted on the shaft in a section between the end cap and the bearing elements for a sealing contact against the sealing surface of the end cap. In a third aspect, the invention relates also to an end packing for a deflection compensated roll, said roll comprising a stationary shaft and a roll shell bearing-mounted rotatably therearound and having each end thereof provided with a shaft-enclosing annular end cap, having its surface which is internal in the axial direction of the roll formed with a sealing surface, and shaft-mounted slide bearing elements in each axial end zone of the roll shell inside the end cap, said slide bearing elements comprising radial slide bearing elements and axial slide bearing elements. The present invention relates to an end packing () for a deflection compensated roll. The roll including a stationary shaft () and a roll shell (), bearing-mounted rotatably therearound and having each end thereof provided with a shaft-enclosing annular end cap (). The end cap () has its surface internal in the axial direction of the roll or its surface external in the axial direction formed with a sealing surface (). The end packing elements () are provided with an annular packing member () extending around the shaft () and including a front face, which is directed towards said sealing surface () and which is in contact with the sealing surface () or separated from the sealing surface () by a gap constituting an axially di
