Dispenser cartridge and wiper with cord
A dispenser housing for dispensing a multi-layer tape transfer tape used in a paper web turn-up operation, the transfer tape being the combination of a tape substrate coated on one side with a web grabbing adhesive and on the other side with a mounting adhesive and an affixed cord or cordlike feature, and a release liner having a release liner substrate fully coated on a first side with a release layer and zone-coated on a second side with a release layer, the transfer tape being wound onto a single spool with the release liner facing inward and the mounting side adhesive facing outward, such that buckling is precluded when the transfer tape is unwound from the spool.
PRINTER WITH IMPROVED PAPER DISPENSING MECHANISM
A printer includes housing having reel mounted therein to support paper roll and paper exit formed in front panel thereof, printing mechanism positioned in the housing and having printing head for printing an ink on the sheet of paper, paper cutter for cutting the sheet of paper and paper path defined between the printing head and the paper cutter for the passing of the leading end of the sheet of paper, and paper dispensing mechanism positioned in the housing including drive module and paper dispensing roller set drivable by the drive module to carry the sheet of paper toward the paper exit. The paper dispensing roller set consist of two rollers made of a flexible and elastic material and pressed against each other. The distance between the center of the two rollers is less than the combination of the radius of the two rollers.
Tape dispenser
A tape dispenser, including: a main body, including a base and a reel member, the reel member being connected to the base and movable between a plurality of positions relative to the base; an installation portion, connected to the main body, configured for installation of a tape; and a control portion, mounted to the base; wherein the control portion operates to allow movement of the reel member so that the reel member is switched to and restricted to be in one of the plurality of positions.
SHEET PROCESSING APPARATUS AND IMAGE FORMING SYSTEM
A sheet processing apparatus includes a conveyance portion, a punching portion, a moving portion, a first detecting portion, and a control unit configured to control the conveyance portion, the punching portion and the moving portion, wherein the control unit is configured, for a target position of each of a plurality of holes to be formed to a single sheet, to cause the first detecting portion to execute a detection process, and to execute a moving process of moving the moving portion based on the output value of the first detecting portion corresponding to the target position and a punching process of performing punching to the target position of the sheet by the punching portion after the moving process has been completed.
PRINTING APPARATUS
According to an aspect of the present disclosure, a printing apparatus includes a conveyance unit configured to convey a sheet in a conveyance direction, a print head configured to perform printing on the sheet conveyed in the conveyance direction by the conveyance unit, a discharge port from which the sheet printed by the print head is discharged, a stacking portion located below the discharge port and configured to stack the sheet discharged from the discharge port in a state where a leading end of the sheet is directed to an upstream side in the conveyance direction, and a holding unit disposed in a sheet discharge path below the discharge port and configured to move between a holding position in which the holding unit holds the sheet and a releasing position in which the holding unit releases the sheet.
