See full text

A doctor apparatus comprises a base adapted to be fixed to a doctor back and having a shelf projecting forwardly therefrom. A compliant top plate overlies the forwardly projecting shelf. The top plate has a rear portion fixed with respect to the base, and a front portion projecting forwardly beyond the shelf. Mutually spaced blade support members are secured to the underside of the front portion of the top plate. The blade support members have front portions underlying and cooperating in spaced relationship with the underside of the front portion of the top plate to define mutually aligned receiving slots, and have rear portions underlying and cooperating in spaced relationship with the shelf to define mutually aligned recesses. A doctor blade has a rear portion removably retained in the receiving slots, and a front portion projecting forwardly beyond the top plate. A resilient element is confined in the recesses between the shelf and the rear portions of the blade support members.
