A packaged film for masking an aircraft component, wherein the packaged film is configured to form a tubular sleeve when unpackaged. The packaged film is formed by performing a longitudinal telescopic folding operation on a longitudinal portion of a film to provide a longitudinally parallelogram-shaped stacked film; and performing at least a first transverse folding operation on a first portion of the longitudinally parallelogram-shaped stacked film, the first transverse folding operation comprising an operation selected from accordion folding and roll folding to provide the packaged film. The packaged film is capable of being unfolded in a reverse order of the longitudinal telescopic folding operation and the first transverse folding operation to cover said aircraft component.

Provided is a sheet storage apparatus capable of storing as many sheets as possible in a storage bag. The sheet storage apparatus according to the present disclosure includes a moving section that moves a sheet to a back side, in a storing direction, of a storage bag fixed so that the storing direction is horizontal or closer to horizontal than to vertical; a first storage bag support that supports a bottom surface of the storage bag; and a second storage bag support that is positioned on the back side from the first storage bag support in the storing direction and supports the bottom surface of the storage bag at a position lower than the first storage bag support.

An overwrap feed station wraps a product with an overwrap material by drawing the overwrap material around the product to form a tube around the product as the product moves through the feed station. The feed station is configurable in first, second, or third configurations based upon a desired location of a longitudinal seal to be formed on the tube around the product. A first former is configured to guide the overwrap material through the entrance of the feed station so that longitudinal edges of the overwrap material overlap on a first side of the tube during wrapping of the product. The second former is configured to guide the overwrap material through the entrance of the feed station so that longitudinal edges of the overwrap material overlap on a second side of the tube during wrapping of the product. The third former allows forming the seal on the corner.

According to the invention, the device comprises at least one flap spreading head (12a, 12b), the flap spreading head being vertically mobile for insertion thereof into a container (3) to be processed and including first and second flap spreading blades (121.sub.1, 121.sub.2) mounted on pivots and an actuator (122.sub.1, 122.sub.2). The actuator is adapted to command rotation of the flap spreading blades that on rotating come into contact with flaps (R1a, R1b) and bring about spreading thereof by folds toward the exterior of the container.

A shippable bundled product including a plurality of paper product rolls each individually packaged by a first package material and arranged relative to one another so as to form a bundle. The bundle is packaged by a second package material. The second package material has a shrinkage factor relative to the bundle of less than zero and the bundle has a size of 18 in. x 14 in. x 8 in.

A unit for the control or management of articles includes a plant including an operating line including an upstream section for making the articles, including a log saw for cutting rolls off elongate logs, a packaging section including a packing section where the articles or rolls are packed, and a bagging section where the packs are placed in bags and/or a palletizing section where the packs or bags are placed on pallets. A conveying section transports products between the upstream section and the packaging section and/or between one packaging section and another downstream. A process controller controls the functioning of the plant sections. The unit includes a device for detecting and/or lighting a face of the product or pack and which is adapted to produce different images of the face, to exhibit different states of reflection of the light that is incident upon the face.

A forward and reverse roller type wafer sealing system includes a wafer seal tape, a wafer seal transfer member, an inflow conveyor belt, a first pressure roller member, a second pressure roller member and an outflow conveyor belt. The wafer seal tape has a shape wound in a roll type, and has a plurality of wafer seals attached in series to one surface. The wafer seal transfer member includes a supply holding member on which the wafer seal tape is mounted, a removing pulley for removing the wafer seal as the wafer seal tape is transferred, and a recovery holding member for winding a base member from which the wafer seal is removed using the removing pulley as a separation point. The inflow conveyor belt rotates in a forward rotation direction to transfer the packaging object in order to attach the wafer seal for preventing unfolding to a plurality of accumulated packaging objects. The first pressure roller member is disposed at a rear end of the inlet conveyor belt. As a part of a removed wafer seal is attached to the edge of one surface of the packaging object and transferred, the first pressure roller member bends the rest of the wafer seal in a U-shape to pressurize the edge of the other surface of the object to be packaged. The second pressure roller member is disposed at a rear end of the conveying roller member. The second pressure roller member transfers the packaging object having the wafer seal attached to the edge of one side and the edge of the other side. The outflow conveyor belt is disposed at a rear end of the second pressure roller. The outflow conveyor belt rotates in the forward rotation direction to transport the packaging object with the wafer seal attached.
