Apparatus and Method for Manufacturing Unit Cells
An apparatus for manufacturing unit cells includes reels, rollers, conveyors, headers, and a cutter. A lower separator sheet is unwound from a lower separator reel. A feeding roller moves the lower separator sheet in a first direction. A conveyor moves a first electrode in a second direction parallel to the first direction. A first header conveys that electrode from the conveyor and onto the lower separator sheet. An upper separator sheet is unwound from an upper separator reel. Another feeding roller moves, in the first direction, a first ordered stack of the lower separator sheet, first electrode, and upper separator sheet. Another conveyor moves a second electrode in the second direction. Another header conveys that electrode from the second conveyor and onto the upper separator sheet. The cutter cuts, at preset intervals, a second ordered stack of the lower separator sheet, first electrode, upper separator sheet, and second electrode.
STICKING APPARATUS
A sticking device implements high-speed automatic processing of base-sheet-attached shrink-film packaging using a half-cut double-faced adhesive tape. A sticking device rolls a half-cut double-faced adhesive tape over a first sticking object that is transported on a conveyor device to stick the adhesive tape to the first sticking object and then places a second sticking object on the first sticking object and applies pressure to stick the first sticking object and the second sticking object together. The sticking device includes: a feeder device that feeds the first sticking object; a conveyor device; an adhesive-tape sticking device that has a roll body attaching part for rotatably supporting a half-cut double-faced adhesive tape with a peel-off liner, a rotary-sticking roll pressure part, and a peel-off liner collecting part; and a second sticking object sticking device that places a second sticking object on the sticking portion of the first sticking object and applies pressure.
Apparatus and method for transport of balancing weights
Apparatus and a method for transporting and positioning of balancing weights connected together to form a chain of balancing weights is disclosed. A drive means comprises at least a transport wheel and/or a transport belt. The drive means has at least one cam to interface with a gap between two adjacent balancing weights of the chain of balancing weights. Furthermore a cutter may be provided for cutting of balancing weights from the chain.
Printer
A printer includes a housing; an openable top cover disposed at the top of the housing; a printing unit disposed in the housing and comprising a printing portion fixedly mounted within the housing and a roll portion fixed to the openable top cover; and a paper channel between the printing portion and the roll portion; and a paper outlet between a top portion of the housing and the openable top cover, the paper channel leading to the paper outlet the printer further including a movable paper-tearing mechanism disposed in the paper outlet, the movable paper-tearing mechanism moving away from the paper outlet when the openable top cover is opened and into the paper outlet and overlapping partly the openable top cover when the openable top cover is closed, where an extension of the paper channel is between the movable paper-tearing mechanism and an upper surface of the openable top cover.
Tape dispenser
A tape dispenser includes a first arm, a second arm, a holder, a roller, a retaining device, a blade, spring(s) and one or more guides. The tape dispenser is positioned on a tape roll by positioning the holder on the inside of the tape roll and positioning the roller and retaining device on the outside of the tape roll. Tape is able to be pulled through the tape dispenser and then cut using the blade. After the tape is cut, the tape on the roll remains on the retaining device for easy access. The tape dispenser is also removable for use with many tape rolls.
Sheet processing system and control method
A sheet processing system according to an embodiment includes a tray that supports a sheet on opposite sides of the sheet orthogonal to a conveyance direction of the sheet. The tray includes a first adjustable support and second adjustable support positioned opposite the first adjustable support in the direction orthogonal to the conveyance direction of the sheet. A skew sensor detects a skew angle of the sheet conveyed to the tray. A corner sensor detects positions of each corner on a front end in the downstream direction of the sheet conveyed to the tray. A controller controls movement of the first and second adjustable supports based on the detected skew angle and the detected positions of each corner on the front end of the sheet conveyed to the tray so that the sheet is conveyed to the tray without jamming.
CUTTING ASSEMBLY FOR A MULTI-ROLL PRINTER
Method for cutting media from a multi-roll printing system, comprising the steps of: selecting one of a first medium and a second medium, which first medium and second medium are output in parallel with respect to one another from the multi-roll printing system; transporting the selected medium to a cutting media transport path spaced apart from a further media transport path in a traverse direction perpendicular to a plane of the cutting media transport path; and cutting the selected medium positioned at the cutting media transport path.
The present invention further relates to a cutting assembly and a multi-roll printing system.
APPARATUS AND SYSTEM FOR FACILITATING WRAPPING OF ARTICLES WITH WRAPPING MATERIALS
An apparatus and a system for facilitating the wrapping of articles with wrapping materials is described. In one example, the system includes two or more apparatuses adapted to be secured in adjacent spaced relation to one another on a planar surface so as to support a roll of wrapping material above the planar surface so as to freely rotate between a pair of apparatuses. Each apparatus includes a clamp assembly adapted to be actuated by a user to removably attach its corresponding apparatus to a ledge of the planar surface so that the supported roll is parallel to and above the planar surface.
PRINTER APPARATUS
A printer apparatus includes a printer main body having a platen roller and a print head to print on recording paper, a cutter unit configured to cut the recording paper, and a presenter unit connected to the cutter unit, wherein the recording paper on which the print head has printed enters the presenter unit through the cutter unit, and comes out from a discharge slot of the presenter unit, wherein the presenter unit includes a first roller and a second roller configured to convey the recording paper placed therebetween, and a flapper disposed along a transportation path of the recording paper between the cutter unit and both the first roller and the second roller, and configured to be flipped open to an outside of the presenter unit to expose the transportation path, wherein an angle at which the flapper is open is selectively set to one of a plurality of different angles.
DEVICE FOR PRODUCING ADHESIVE LABELS
This disclosure relates to a device for producing adhesive labels, in particular in a self-service area, for example of a drug store. The device comprises a printer for printing a printing pattern based on user inputs onto an adhesive film, a cutting apparatus for cutting the adhesive film along a specified cutting pattern which can be selected by a user, and a transferring apparatus for automatically transferring the printed adhesive film from the printer to the cutting apparatus, wherein the transferring apparatus comprises a first moving unit for automatically moving the printed adhesive film in a forward direction from the printer to the cutting apparatus. A control apparatus controls the automatic transfer of the printed adhesive film from the printer to the cutting apparatus.
