A document-collecting apparatus of an automated transaction can include a document-retaining spool, a document-retaining-spool shaft, a web-supply spool, a web-supply-spool shaft, a web, and a single motor. The document-retaining-spool shaft can extend through an orifice in a center of the document-retaining spool. The web-supply-spool shaft can extend through an orifice in a center of the web-supply spool. The web can have a first end wound around the document-retaining spool and a second end opposite to the first end and wound around the web-supply spool. The single motor can be operatively connected to and can selectively drive the document-retaining-spool shaft and the web-supply-spool shaft.

The current disclosure describes carrier tape systems that include a carrier tape substrate and a cover tape. The carrier tape system includes a plurality of repetitive adhesion areas where the carrier tape substrate and cover tape are attached to each other and non-adhesion areas where the carrier tape substrate and cover tape are not attached to each other. Separating the cover tape and the carrier tape substrate at these repetitive adhesion and non-adhesion areas imparts a vibration to the cover tape which impedes or prevents semiconductor devices carried in pockets of the carrier tape substrate from adhering to adhesive on the cover tape.

A sheet handling device includes: a first storage; a second storage using a storage method different form that of the first storage; a transporter that transports a sheet; and a controller that controls the transporter to transport the sheet. When the second storage is neither a transport source of the sheet nor a transport destination of the sheet, the controller controls the transporter to transport the sheet at a first speed. When the second storage is at least the transport source of the sheet or the transport destination of the sheet, the controller controls the transporter to transport the sheet at a second speed lower than the first speed.

A winding method includes: attracting a sheet-like belt 8b onto a table 14 by multiple attracting means 15 lined up in a longitudinal direction of the sheet-like belt 8b; and winding the sheet-like belt 8b around a winding cylinder 50 by moving the winding cylinder 50 in the longitudinal direction of the sheet-like belt 8b while rotating the winding cylinder 50 above the sheet-like belt 8b and by cancelling attraction by the attracting means 15 one after another from attracting means 15 to which the winding cylinder 50 has moved.

A double storing and issuing device for two banknotes denomination and/or other flexible documents, for use in an equipment for the automatic processing of banknotes, where each storing and issuing device includes a storage roller, relative motor, at least a transport tape provided for wrapping on the storage roller together with the banknotes. The two storage rollers can share the space between them because the transport tape, tensioned by storage roller motor and feeding-roller, pushing against accompanying rollers strictly follows storage roller diameter. The double storing and issuing device includes an electronic unit for the storage roller motors and relative transport tapes revolution sensors, that provides a device full status as any possible combination of storage roller diameter plus a minimum gap to avoid mechanical reciprocal interferences.

The present disclosure provides a support assembly and a storage and deployment apparatus for a flexible display panel. The support assembly of the present disclosure is configured to support a flexible display panel, and includes: a support structure configured to support the flexible display panel, and a driving structure configured to drive the support structure against the flexible display panel. At least a portion of the support structure is fixedly connected to the flexible display panel so that when the flexible display panel is reciprocated in a first direction and a second direction, the support structure is switchable between a first state and a second state. The support structure has a smaller support surface in the first state than in the second state, and the first direction is opposite to the second direction.

In a storage operation, a first tape and a second tape are wound around a drum with a paper sheet sandwiched therebetween to store the paper sheet, the first tape being positioned outside the paper sheet in a radial direction of the drum. In a feeding operation, the first tape is wound around a first reel, and the second tape is wound around a second reel to feed the paper sheet from the drum. In at least one of the storage operation or the feeding operation, greater tension acts on the first tape than on the second tape.
