A dispenser for opening a tape like packaging comprising first and second films releasably connected to each other, forming envelopes sealed around an object, and disposed sequentially with a predetermined pitch. The dispenser comprises a space for holding a container of the packaging, a separator through which the packaging can be passed, for spreading apart and separating the films at an outlet thereof when a pulling force is acting on said first and second films, thereby opening envelopes and releasing the objects contained therein, and means for winding up separated first and second films of the tape like packaging. The separator further comprises a cover member that is articulated to the dispenser to be movable between a closed position and an open position.

The disclosure provides an attaching device for conductive adhesive tape and a manufacturing method of display panel. The attaching device disclosed herein comprises an adhesive tape attaching unit and a frame. An upper portion of the frame is provided with a first guide rail and a pair of second guide rails in parallel. The first guide rail is arranged to be perpendicular to the pair of second guide rails and movably connected between the pair of second guide rails. The adhesive tape attaching unit is movably mounted on the first guide rail. The attaching device for conductive adhesive tape and the manufacturing method of display panel according to the disclosure can attach the adhesive tape to a motherboard. The motherboard with the adhesive tape attached to can be cut to form a plurality of display panels. Therefore, it is possible to improve attaching efficiency and reduce cost of manufacturing.

A peeling apparatus according to an embodiment includes: a conveyance roller configured to convey a laminate made by peelably laminating a first substrate and a second substrate including an opening; a peel roller arranged facing the conveyance roller with the laminate interposed in between, and configured to peel the second substrate from the first substrate; a winding roller arranged away from the peel roller, and configured to wind the second substrate peeled from the first substrate; and an auxiliary winding roller arranged between the peel roller and the winding roller, and including a stepped portion configured to maintain a width of the opening.

A foil transfer device which transfers foil onto a sheet is disclosed herein. When a nip/release mechanism moves a first roller and starts causing a foil film to be pressed against a confined surface region on a sheet, located apart from a leading edge of the sheet, a controller executes: a first process of causing a conveyor roller to start conveyance of the sheet, while the first roller is positioned in a separate position; a second process of causing the conveyor roller to stop conveyance of the sheet before a foil transfer area reaches a transfer position; a third process of causing the nip/release mechanism to start moving the first roller from the separate position to a nipping position while the conveyance of the sheet is stopped; and a fourth process of causing the conveyor roller to restart conveyance of the sheet before the first roller reaches the nipping position.

Methods and systems of using pocket roller (110, 130) to place objects on a continuously moving web (2) are provided. The objects are received in an array of pockets (124) on a major surface of a roller sleeve (120). The roller sleeve (120) engages with an adhesive surface (22) of the continuously moving web (2) to place the objects on the web (2).

Apparatus and method for the making of a pressure-sensitive adhesive stock for labels using a label production line, are disclosed. The stock comprises a first layer of facestock material configured to be die-cut to form the stock of labels surrounded by a matrix, the first layer being backed by a layer of pressure-sensitive adhesive, which in turn is covered by a release liner. 5 The apparatus and method allow the matrix of the facestock to be peeled-off from the release liner on the label production line without stopping the label production line by merely slowing down the label production line. A pressure-sensitive adhesive stock free of the matrix of the facestock is therefore produced without lowering production yields.

The objects are received in an array of pockets (124) on a major surface of a roller sleeve (120). The roller sleeve (120) engages with an adhesive surface (22) of the continuously moving web (2) to place the objects on the web (2).

A method for manufacturing an optical display device comprises: sequentially peeling a plurality of optical film sheets continuously supported via an adhesive layer on one of opposite surfaces of a carrier film, together with the adhesive layer from the carrier film under peeling action of the movable peeling member by winding a long web of the carrier film in a state where the other of opposite surfaces thereof being folded to inside at a tip-end of the movable peeling member having the tip-end and passed around the peeling member; and laminating the plurality of optical film sheets to one of opposite surfaces of respective ones of panel components via the adhesive layer under laminating action of the closed lamination rollers.

A component supplying apparatus comprises an inclined straight path P2 which is for the carrier tape and which extends obliquely upward, a horizontal straight path P3 which is for the carrier tape and which extends in the horizontal direction from a front end of the inclined path P2 and runs through the component supply position Q, a first sprocket wheel engaging with the feed holes of the carrier tape within the inclined path P2, a guide member locating the carrier tape in the width direction within the horizontal path, a top tape removing device disposed above the inclined path P2 between the first sprocket wheel and the horizontal path P3 and partially removing the top tape from the base tape so as to expose the components, and a sprocket wheel drive device rotating the first sprocket wheel.

A component supply system of the present disclosure includes a component supply unit automatically transfers a first carrier tape which stores components and is covered with a cover tape, exposes the components from the first carrier tape using a component exposing unit, and supplies the components which are exposed from the first carrier tape, a joining determination unit which determines whether or not a joining which joins a second carrier tape positioned behind the first carrier tape to the first carrier tape is present, and a controller which controls transferring of the first carrier tape by the component supply unit. The controller restricts the transferring of the first carrier tape in a case in which the joining determination unit determines that the joining is present.
