Abstract

The cylinder (1) has an adjusting mechanism and is connected to at least one spindle (21) which is offset radially from the shaft (5) of the cylinder. The spindle can be rotated by an adjusting spindle (6) which is arranged coaxially in a bore (4) in the shaft. The adjusting spindle can move axially in the bore, but is prevented from rotating relative to the shaft, and is connected to a tension element. Both sides (12,13) of the element run towards one another over pulleys (18,19) which are arranged in a radial hole (14) in the bore, and lead around a drive pulley (22) which is fastened to the offset spindle.
