Time required for initial operation and operation immediately after wound body replacement is shortened. A packaging device packages an object to be packaged using a wound body. An elongated sheet-shaped packaging material is wound into the wound body. The wound body includes a recording medium that stores information. The information recorded in the recording medium includes remaining amount information indicating a remaining amount of the packaging material in the wound body. The packaging device includes a drive unit that generates driving force in order to rotate the wound body, an information reader that reads the remaining amount information stored in the recording medium, and a controller that controls the packaging device. The controller sets a rotation speed of the wound body based on the remaining amount information read by the information reader.

The present disclosure relates to a method for splicing a web of packaging material, comprising: guiding the web of packaging material through a splicing device comprising one or more imaging devices, a slitter, and a sealing unit; acquiring a first set of images of one or more areas of the packaging material, storing the acquired first set of images, slitting the web of packaging material in one or more locations to form a tail end and a head end of a web of packaging material, aligning the head end and the tail end and superimpose one on the other in preparation for forming a splice, utilizing the imaging devices and the stored acquired first set of images to fine tune the alignment of the head end and the tail end, sealing the splice.

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.

A film roll compatible with a wrap dispenser comprising a core with a first end with a notch, a second end with a notch, an outer surface and a lumen, a stretch film wrapped around the core, a wrap dispenser comprising a first frame member and a second frame member, a handle connecting the first frame member to the second frame member, a first roller operationally associated with a second roller with each being connected to the first frame member and the second frame member, an upper boss secured to the first frame member with one or more lugs emanating out of the upper boss, a boss handle operationally associated with the upper boss allowing for the raising and lowering of the upper boss, and a lower boss secured to the second frame member with one or more lugs emanating out of the lower boss.

Provided are an accommodating device that performs appropriate processing in order to discard an empty paper pack remaining in the accommodating device and an image forming apparatus including the accommodating device. The accommodating device includes an accommodating unit, a processing unit, and a discarding unit. The accommodating unit accommodates a paper pack including a bundle of stacked sheets of printer paper wrapped with wrapping paper in such a manner that the printer paper is freely taken out. The processing unit flatly crushes and conveys an empty paper pack from which all of the sheets of the printer paper have been taken out and in which only the wrapping paper has remained. The discarding unit stores a flatly crashed empty paper pack conveyed from the processing unit in order to discard them.

A long-handle film packing device includes a first rod and a second rod connected with each other. The first rod is formed with an axial limit groove. The second rod is provided with a limit member corresponding to the limit groove. Through the limit member limited to the limit groove, the length of the long-handle film packing device can be adjusted quickly. Through a positioning pin, the long-handle film packing device can be positioned quickly. The present invention can be applied to different lengths of packing film rolls. In addition, the packing film roll can be first mounted, and then the length of the film packing device is adjusted. Except that the length of the present invention can be adjusted and positioned quickly, the present invention has better practicability and convenience for installation.

Packaging roll films and preparation methods thereof are provided. A first transparent adhesive tape layer may be capable of covering a second high-adhesion layer such that the problem caused by the exposed second high-adhesion layer may be solved. The adhesive film and the non-adhesive film may not need to completely cover the second high-adhesion layer during the process. When the roll film is unrolled for packaging an item, the rolling drum may stop rotating at the end of a cycle of the previous packaging section; the item may continue to rotate due to inertia and thereby generate a tension force at the position where a previous packaging section and a latter packaging section are connected. A parting layer may be parted from the second high-adhesion layer, allowing the non-adhesive film on the latter packaging section to be unrolled, and enabling the adhesive film of the previous section to continue wrapping.

A dispenser comprising a rotating member and a holding member. The rotating member includes a first portion and a second portion. The first portion has an outer surface and a cylindrical inner surface defining a diameter. The second portion has an outer surface and a cylindrical inner surface defining a diameter. The diameter of the cylindrical inner surface of the second portion is greater than the diameter of the cylindrical inner surface of the first portion. A plurality of ribs extends radially inwardly from the cylindrical inner surface of the second portion. The holding member is located radially outwardly of the first portion. The holding member has an inner surface and an outer surface.

The present invention relates to a method of manufacturing a packaging sheet, the method being capable of not only greatly improve a heat insulation property of the packaging sheet, but also minimizing the volume of cells of the packaging sheet without opening the cells by partially cutting or needle-punching the cells, thereby facilitating storage and transportation of the packaging sheet.

The present disclosure relates to an apparatus (100) or a reusable dispenser adaptable for mounting coreless stretch film (106) comprising a hollow cylindrical body (101) with at least one elongated slit (102) along the length of the cylindrical body wherein, the body has a right portion (107a) and a left portion (107b), and an outer wall (104) in which at least one of the left or right portion (107a, 107b) is compressed for slotting into an opening of the film roll (106), such that the outer wall (104) mounts firmly onto inner wall (105) of the opening for grasping the surface of inner sheet of the film roll during dispensing.
