A film treating method includes feeding a film from a film feeder, moving the film along an outer circumference of a fixed support unit, which supports the film and guides the movement of the film, applying tension to the film by moving a variable support unit from a first surface of the film toward a second surface of the film, processing the film, and collecting the film.

Aspects of the present innovations relate to an auxiliary device for aligning a winding sleeve particularly on a sleeve acceptance of a winding machine with a reference. In one illustrative implementation, an auxiliary device may comprise an auxiliary body with an stop device or stop means which is configured for contact with the counter stop device or counter stop means at the winding sleeve. According to further aspects, the present innovations may comprise a method for aligning a winding sleeve with a reference.

An apparatus (un-interleaver) for unwinding a roll of material interleaved with another material, and for separating the materials, includes a first platform, a second platform, a tension-sensor, an edge-sensor, and a controller. The controller monitors signals generated by the tension-sensor and the edge-sensor, and in response to the signals: a) causes the speed at which the second platform rotates to change to maintain a predetermined tension in the second material as the second material travels from the first platform toward the second platform, and b) causes the second platform to move relative to the first platform to align the edge of the second material traveling toward the roll of second material with the edge of the second material in the roll.

A feed mechanism includes: a feed tray accommodating a roll body, a first sheet-shaped medium being rolled in a roll shape as the roll body, the feed tray including: a first accommodation portion accommodating the roll body; a pair of side walls respectively provided on both sides of the first accommodation portion in an axial direction of the roll body that is accommodated in the first accommodation portion; and a side guide disposed inside the pair of side walls.

A base material processing apparatus includes a first edge sensor, a second edge sensor, and a displacement amount calculation part. The first edge sensor acquires a first detection result (R1) by detecting the position of an edge of a base material in the width direction at a first detection position. The second edge sensor acquires a second detection result (R2) by detecting the position of the edge of the base material in the width direction at a second detection position. The displacement amount calculation part calculates the amount of displacement in the position of the base material in the transport direction on the basis of the first detection result (R1) and the second detection result (R2). Accordingly, the amount of displacement in the position of the base material in the transport direction can be detected without depending on images such as register marks.

A liquid ejection apparatus includes a conveying unit, a winding unit, a printing unit, and a rotation control unit. The conveying unit is configured to intermittently convey a printing medium by a predetermined feed amount. The winding unit is configured to wind the printing medium conveyed by the conveying unit. The printing unit is configured to perform printing on the conveyed printing medium. The rotation control unit is configured to control the winding unit to rotate in a winding direction at a predetermined timing after the conveying unit has started to convey the printing medium intermittently, and then cause the winding unit to rotate in a reverse direction opposite to the winding direction.

The present application relates to a heating device, and a battery manufacturing apparatus and method, and relates to the technical field of battery manufacturing. The heating device is configured to heat a material strip upstream of a first station, and may include: a support; a first heater movably mounted to the support; and a first driver mounted to the support and configured to drive the first heater to move in a feeding direction of the material strip, such that the first heater is movable between a first position close to the first station and a second position away from the first station.

An apparatus for manufacturing an electrode plate, includes an unwinder on which an electrode reel is installed; a meandering corrector correcting meandering of an electrode sheet unwound from the electrode reel; a press puncher disposed at a rear end of the meandering corrector; a cutter disposed at a rear end of the press puncher; a detector disposed between the press puncher and the cutter to acquire an image of the electrode sheet; and a controller connected to the detector and the meandering corrector.

A deviation correction apparatus includes a width detecting apparatus configured to detect a width of a coating layer of an electrode plate, a processor communicatively connected with the width detecting apparatus and configured to determine a centerline position of the electrode plate based on the width of the coating layer, and a deviation correction mechanism configured to perform deviation correction for the electrode plate based on the centerline position of the electrode plate and a preset standard centerline position.
