Right. Jacobs style chucks push out from the front like in the picture. The sleeve and gear ring are one piece. It is a press fit over the OD. of the split nut inside that drives the jaws. But you don't have a Jacobs chuck so that won't work.
The Rohm you have is a chuck where the sleeve is a separate part from the gear ring. The sleeve has to come off the back side of your chuck not the front. Once the sleeve is off the gear ring / split nut will slide out the sides of the body. If you look closely at the OD. of the ring gear you should find two "cracks" in between the teeth 180° apart from each other. That is where the gear/nut separate into two pieces.
If you ever need a press ring to disassemble / assemble a Jacobs super chuck though, I'm your Huckleberry.
