A reel device for a ratchet strap system is described. The reel device includes a base that removably receives a first strap of the ratchet strap system. The reel device further includes a receiver that removably receives a second strap of the ratchet strap system. The reel device also includes a reel mechanism operatively connected to the receiver. When the reel mechanism rotates a first angular distance, the receiver rotates a second angular distance proportional to the first angular distance in a same direction as the first angular distance. When the receiver is rotating while receiving the second strap of the ratchet strap system, the second strap wraps around the receiver.

The invention relates to a packaging for a reel of medical injection devices, comprising a base tray (1) for supporting said reel (R), characterized in that it further comprises at least two flat ribs (2, 3) each comprising a respective slot (20, 30) arranged such that the ribs (2, 3) can be interlocked with one another by mutual engagement of said slots (20, 30), and in that the base tray (1) comprises at least two pairs of peripheral openings (1 1, 11, 12, 12), each opening being configured to receive an end (21, 22, 31, 32) of a rib, so that the base tray (1) and interlocked flat ribs (2, 3) engaging the base tray (1) form a frame configured for enclosing the reel (R).

A coiler device for winding a strip of cushioning material into a coil is disclosed. The coiler device includes a working plate, at least two winding pins and a driving mechanism. The working plate has a working surface, a rotation axis and at least two holes away from the rotation axis. The at least two winding pins are disposed through the at least two holes and protruding out of the working surface respectively when winding the strip. The driving mechanism is configured to rotate the working plate, wherein the at least two winding pins are retractable from the working plate through the at least two holes respectively.

A winding device includes a winding shaft that rotates and winds a print medium conveyed from a printing device having a conveyance roller that conveys the print medium, a gear, and a motor driving the conveyance roller and the gear. The winding device also includes a power transfer mechanism to connect to the gear and transfer power to the motor, and a lever disposed between the winding shaft and the conveyance roller in a conveyance path in a configuration in which the winding device is connected to the printing device. The lever may be moved between a first position in which the print medium bends and a second position in which the print medium bends at a shallower angle than at the first position.

Disclosed is a liner reel, a cassette, a let off station and a method for collecting a liner, wherein the liner reel has a core and a shell that is concentrically mountable to said core for rotation together with said core about a liner reel axis, wherein the shell has a collection wall that extends in a circumferential direction about the liner reel axis when the shell is mounted to the core, wherein the collection wall is arranged for receiving the liner, wherein the core has a support wall extending in the circumferential direction for supporting the collection wall at least with a vector component in a radial direction perpendicular to the liner reel axis, wherein the collection wall is at least partially contractible in said radial direction when the shell is removed from the core.

The present invention relates to an apparatus and a method for folding and winding a predetermined length of non-woven fabric used for the industrial production of moistened wipes. The apparatus for folding and winding a predetermined length of non-woven fabric from a roll wound on a core is mounted on a countertop, equipped with a housing, provided with a drive unit. Mounted on a hub (1) is a cylinder (2), to which eccentrically attached are rods (3) from which at a certain distance is mounted a linear feed (4). The hub assembly (1) with the cylinder (2) with the rods (3) and the linear feed (4) can be mounted vertically or horizontally.

A motorized flat web winder has a revolving work holder and a source of drive for turning the revolving work holder. The revolving work holder presents a generally planar support surface. The source of drive turns the revolving work holder about a turning axis. The generally planar support surface cuts the turning axis more or less perpendicularly. The generally planar support surface has a spaced pair of keeper pins extending out from an affixed butt end to a spaced tip end. Preferably, the keeper pins are off-center relative the turning but orbit about the turning axis in a near orbit. More preferably still, the keeper pins orbit the turning axis by a measure which makes either of the brass coupling ends of a fire hose the center of a spiral coil formed therefrom.

This disclosure describes a high speed winch rewind adapter for quickly rewinding a loading strap. In one implementation, the adapter includes a body having a volume sized to at least partially surround an annular end of the winch. The annular end is coupled with a ratchet mechanism of the winch and having at least one hole for receiving a winch bar. A drive connector is positioned both within the volume of the body and external to the volume of the body, the drive connector external to the volume of the body having an external profile to receive a torque, and the drive connector within the volume of the body insertable into the annular end of the winch for alignment to the axis of rotation. A coupling mechanism synchronizes the drive connector to the annular end such that both the drive connector and the annular end rotate simultaneously.

A tie down apparatus wherein a center leg of each of a pair of load springs is mounted in the space between a pair of drum pins, which space receives and holds a tied down strap. Each load spring is fixedly attached to a respective one of first and second ratchet wheels and a circular plate is positioned within each ratchet wheel and configured to rotate through a selected arc with respect to each ratchet wheel to limit the pre-load applied to the load springs.

A blanket rolling device is provided. The device is comprised of a male hitch, an axle, a vertical frame member, and a secondary axle. A construction blanket or other similar object may be placed between a first and second horizontal bar. By rotating the handle, the first and second horizontal bar rotate about the axis of the secondary axle, winding the construction blanket into a tight spiral. The axle acts as a guide to the construction blanket to smoothly roll the blanket up to the secondary axle.
