A medium feeding unit that is configure to be mounted to an image forming apparatus provided with an image forming unit and feeds a medium to the image forming unit includes a medium introducing part that introduces the medium to the image forming unit and a medium holding part that holds the medium at a feeding position from which the medium is fed to the image forming unit. The medium holding part is configured to be positioned at one of at least two different feeding positions relative to the medium introducing part.

The device includes a fixed counter-blade and a rotating blade-holder on which a set of rotating blades is arranged. A web material which must be perforated or cut into sheets passes between blade-holder and counter-blade. A mutual contact sensor and an angular position sensor provide signals that allow correct positioning and functioning of the rotating blades and the counter-blade to be displayed on a human-machine interface.

A wrapper cutter, including a shell having an axially penetrating hollow structure, an elongated slit extending along an axial direction further provided on one side edge of the shell, a cutting knife fixedly mounted on an inner bottom wall of the elongated slit; and a vertical plate arranged on an outer wall of the shell. The vertical plate extends along a circumferential direction of the shell and at least partially covers the elongated slit.

A winding device includes: a separation unit that separates sheets layered and simultaneously transported; a winding unit that winds one of the sheets separated by the separation unit; and a pressure contact unit that presses the one of the sheets wound by the winding unit from outside of the wound sheet toward the winding unit.

An electrode roll connection automation apparatus is configured for uniformly maintaining the width of electrode tabs in a process of connecting electrode sheets to each other and for automatically connecting the electrode sheets to each other. The electrode roll connection automation apparatus includes first and second supply units, a connection unit, and an electrode tab sensing unit. The first and the second supply units are configured to supply first and second electrode sheets, respectively, on which electrode tabs are formed. The connection unit is configured to connect the first electrode sheet and the second electrode sheet to each other. The electrode tab sensing unit is disposed between the first supply unit and the connection unit. The electrode tab sensing unit is configured to measure the distance between the electrode tabs.

A medium feeding unit that is configure to be mounted to an image forming apparatus provided with an image forming unit and feeds a medium to the image forming unit includes a medium introducing part that introduces the medium to the image forming unit and a medium holding part that holds the medium at a feeding position from which the medium is fed to the image forming unit. The medium holding part is configured to be positioned at one of at least two different feeding positions relative to the medium introducing part.

A wrap foil dispenser, comprising a base plate, provided with a channel, through which a blade glides. As part of a cutter assembly which glides along a guide, the blade slides and cuts the foil without touching the plate. The cutter assembly includes an arm which ensures that the blade engages the foil. In case the plate is laterally tilted or the cutter is slid by hand, the cutter assembly moves along a channel to which cutting edges of the blade are placed inside. When the blade is moved, the foil, placed on the upper side of the channel, is cut. The blade's vertical position is uniform as a result of the cutting assembly pressing through the arm's own weight which is limited by a buffer element. The dispenser may include a rotating support, provided with two conical elements that ensure mounting of foil rolls having various dimensions.

A wrapper cutter, including a shell having an axially penetrating hollow structure, an elongated slit extending along an axial direction further provided on one side edge of the shell, a cutting knife fixedly mounted on an inner bottom wall of the elongated slit; and a vertical plate arranged on an outer wall of the shell. The vertical plate extends along a circumferential direction of the shell and at least partially covers the elongated slit.

A recording device includes: a conveying mechanism; a recording unit; and a controller. The conveying mechanism selectively conveys a first sheet-shaped medium and a second sheet-shaped medium. The controller performs, based on a recording command, recording processing in which the conveying mechanism is caused to convey the sheet-shaped medium from one of a first and a second accommodation portions. The recording unit is caused to record an image on the sheet-shaped medium. The controller does not cause the recording unit to record the image in one or both of a case where accommodation portion information regarding an accommodation portion included in the recording command indicates the first accommodation portion and medium information regarding the sheet-shaped medium included in the recording command indicates the second sheet-shaped medium, and a case where the accommodation portion information indicates the second accommodation portion and the medium information indicates the first sheet-shaped medium.
