A seam tape applicator for applying self-adhesive seam tapes to the junctions of dimpled waterproofing membranes, wherein the dimpled waterproofing membranes comprise dimpled surfaces, the seam tape applicator comprising: a body; a roller which is rotatably mounted to the body; and a handle which is attached to the body; wherein the roller comprises a roller surface which comprises surface features which complement the dimpled surfaces of the dimpled waterproofing membranes.

Systems for processing material, taping stations to apply tape to one or more rolls of material, and methods of processing material are disclosed. A system for processing material includes a winding station and a taping station. The winding station includes a winder to wrap material around a mandrel to produce one or more rolls of material. The taping station is arranged downstream of the winding station to receive the one or more rolls of material therefrom and apply tape to the one or more rolls of material.

A system for applying an adhesive tape line to a work surface includes a tape guiding assembly for removably coupling with the work surface. The tape guiding assembly includes at least one fastening member for removably coupling the tape guiding assembly to the work surface. The tape guiding assembly also includes a guiding board coupled with the at least one fastening member, wherein the guiding board includes a board sliding surface. The system also includes an adhesive tape dispenser having a dispenser sliding surface, the adhesive tape dispenser positionable on the board sliding surface and supported by the dispenser sliding surface for slidable translation on the board sliding surface when applying the adhesive tape line to the work surface.

For the defects that manual adhesive tape pasting is low in efficiency and high in cost, and it is difficult to automatically paste adhesive tapes at specified positions of inner and outer surfaces of an item according to a certain length through a handheld box sealer and an adhesive tape seal pasting mechanism, a cantilever type plane automatic adhesive tape pasting device is invented. A liftable two-stage telescopic cantilever adhesive tape pasting head structure, a roller type automatic adhesive tape feeding structure, an adjustable fixed-length cutting structure and a roller type pasting structure are adopted for the device to achieve the automatic adhesive tape pasting on inner and outer side planes of an item. After the item needing adhesive tape pasting is positioned, the pasting process is completely automatically conducted without manual participation, the labor intensity is reduced, the labor efficiency is improved.

An applicator head for applying an adhesive tape on a surface or substrate, wherein the adhesive tape comprises a material and at least one removable liner, the applicator head comprising: an application tip; a cutting mechanism positioned adjacent an outer most point of the application tip; a positioning device is configured such that the cutting mechanism severs the material while maintaining the at least one removable liner intact.

A tape dispenser has a cutter or cutting blade that has at least two rows of teeth opposite each other relative to the cutter or cutting blade. The blade is to be installed on the tape dispenser in any of at least two orientations. By installing the blade in any of at least two orientations, at least one row of teeth will always project from the dispensing end to cut adhesive tape as it is unwound from a roll after being dispensed. This type of blade permits an easier manufacturing ability by reducing or eliminating the need to ensure proper alignment of the teeth to project outwardly from the tape dispenser housing.

A tape applicator for an adhesive tape includes a cutting head. The cutting head includes a base surface and a cutting blade, the cutting blade having a blade base where the cutting blade intersects with and extends from the base surface, and the cutting blade having a cutting edge. The tape applicator further includes a Y-axis extending from a midpoint of the blade base, a longitudinal blade axis extending from the midpoint to a center point of the cutting edge, and a first angle greater than 0 degrees between the Y-axis and the longitudinal blade axis. The tape applicator includes a Z-axis tangent to the base surface, and parallel to the blade base, a cutting edge axis passing through the center point and tangent to the cutting edge, and a second angle less than 80 degrees between the Z-axis and the cutting edge axis.

Provided is a reel member and an adhesive film winding body capable of suppressing sticking and blocking and preventing falling off. A real member includes: a winding core 3 around which an adhesive film 2 is to be wound; a pair of reel flanges 4 provided on both sides of the winding core 3; and a plurality of ribs 5 formed on an inner surface 4a of the reel flange 4, protruding from the inner surface 4a, and extending from the center side to the peripheral edge side of the reel flange 4, wherein in the rib 5, a rib top width W1 in contact with the adhesive film 2 is narrower than a rib base width W2 in contact with the inner surface 4a in cross-sectional view.

A system comprising: a source of a tape comprising a material associated with an adhesive and at least one removable liner; an applicator head; a cutting mechanism; at least one drive feeding mechanism configured to index the tape from the source to the applicator head at a controlled rate; wherein the applicator head is controllable to apply the material on a surface or a substrate; and wherein the applicator head comprises a cutting mechanism configured to sever the material while leaving the at least one removable liner intact.

A feeding system configured to transport a material to a tape applicator, the feeding system comprising: a flexible conduit coupled between a spool unloading device and a tape applicator, wherein the flexible conduit receives the material from a source; and a fluid amplifier coupled to the flexible conduit to facilitate movement of the material therein by creating a vacuum effect.
