Provided are a placement table configured to place a medium onto which liquid is discharged, a perforation member configured to perform perforation by imparting a shear force to the medium placed at the placement table, a die hole provided at the placement table, a perforation member moving section configured to move the perforation member between a standby position above the die hole and a perforating position at which the perforation member enters the die hole, and a control unit configured to control operation of the perforation member moving section, wherein when the control unit obtains perforation failure information during perforating operation in which the perforation member starts moving from the standby position and moves through the perforating position to the standby position, the control unit is configured to control the perforation member moving section so that a shear force is again imparted to the medium.

A plastic wrap container is provided with a cutter assembly attached to the body of the container. The cutter assembly can be attached in a recessed area or within the body and can be moved to a second deployed position for use.

Disclosed herein is a strip cutting apparatus for a diagnostic reagent kit that includes first and second shafts, each of which has knives and spacers arranged in such a way that two knives having blades facing each other and one spacer are arranged alternatively, and a guide member mounted to go between the first and second shafts to guide a diagnostic reagent, thereby accurately cutting the diagnostic reagent into strips of an approximately rectangular shape in a diagnostic reagent passing section and removing defect by preventing the strips from being twisted or bent. Since the guide member continuously guides the diagnostic reagent till the strips get out of the shafts, it is prevented that the cut strips are fit between the knives are twisted or deformed, thereby removing defect. Furthermore, adjusting screws are mounted at both ends of the first shaft supported to adjust an interval between the first and second shafts in a longitudinal direction, thereby more accurately adjusting the interval between the first and second shafts to enhance cutting effect of the strips.

A sheet processing apparatus includes a conveyance unit that conveys a sheet, a processing unit that performs processing on the sheet conveyed by the conveyance unit, and a controller that controls the conveyance unit and the processing unit. The processing unit includes a cutting unit capable of cutting the sheet along a cutting line, a holding unit that is configured to be movable between a holding position and a release position and that is disposed such that a holding line, which is formed on the sheet when the sheet is held, is substantially parallel to the cutting line, and an angle adjuster capable of adjusting an angle of the cutting unit and the holding unit with respect to a conveying direction.

The rolled material dispenser of the present invention enables the user to securely grip the rolled material dispenser and safely cut rolled material installed within. The rolled material dispenser provides beveled corners allowing for better gripping and usage for users with decreased hand strength and dexterity. The user inserts the rolled material of their choice into the dispenser. The user opens the lid of the rolled material dispenser, pulls a desired length of material from the roll installed inside the dispenser device, and then closes the lid. Closing the lid secures the rolled material and positions the cutting device to sever the desired length of material. The cutting device travels along the track of the lid. The user slides the cutting device across the rolled material positioned underneath the lid to cut a portion of material from the roll installed within the dispenser.

A tape machine includes a base, one or more wheels connected to the base, one or more uprights extending upwards from the base, a roller connected to the base, and a tape roll housing connected to the uprights and configured to receive a roll of tape therein to allow for rotational unwinding of the roll of tape. A cutter connected to the base and moveable between an idle position and a cut position. A blade on the cutter is moveable to cut the tape when in cut position.

Provided is a sheet holder capable of suitably holding a cloth sheet medium while a plotter performs processing. The sheet holder is used for a plotter that performs processing on a cloth sheet medium. The sheet holder includes a holder base material on an upper surface of which the sheet medium is mounted, and an engaging sheet attached onto the holder base material and including a plurality of hook-shaped engaging elements to be engaged with the sheet medium. The engaging elements are arranged so as to be arranged in a plane shape at predetermined intervals on the holder base material.

A sheet processing apparatus includes a puncher, a first sensor positioned upstream of the puncher in the conveyance direction, a second sensor positioned upstream of the first detection position in the conveyance direction, a drive source configured to drive the puncher, a controller configured to control the drive source. The controller executes a control mode including a first process of controlling a rotation speed of the puncher on a basis of a detection result of the second sensor and a second process of controlling the rotation speed of the puncher on a basis of a detection result of the first sensor. In the control mode, the controller does not stop rotation of the puncher in a period between the punching process on the preceding sheet and a punching process on the succeeding sheet.

A cutting device is configured to cut, in an arc shape, an end of a sheet conveyed in a conveyance direction. The cutting device includes an arc-shaped cutting blade; a switching mechanism; and a contact-and-separation mechanism. The switching mechanism is configured to switch a posture of the cutting blade in accordance with a position of the sheet facing the cutting blade. The contact-and-separation mechanism is configured to bring the cutting blade into contact with the sheet in a contact direction orthogonal to a surface of the sheet and away from the sheet in a separation direction opposite the contact direction, to cut the end of the sheet in the arc shape.

An adhesive tape dispensing device having a narrow top portion with an opening, across which opening the tape is tensioned, and a blade that cuts the tape by first puncturing it and then proceeding to cut across the remainder of the tape.
