A self-propelled module for oversize loads includes two ground movement assemblies with oil-pressure controlled actuation; a transverse rocker arranged between the movement assemblies, which are coupled thereto independently; oil-pressure controlled suspension elements, arranged on corresponding oscillating supports coupled to the transverse rocker; and a load-bearing frame, supported by the oil-pressure controlled suspension elements. The load-bearing frame includes an oil-pressure controlled circuit adapted to serve the ground movement assemblies and the suspension elements. The module further includes a rotary distribution unit, having a vertical axis, mounted on the load-bearing frame for supplying the ground movement assemblies and the oil-pressure controlled suspension elements, a first part of the rotary distribution unit being fixed to the load-bearing frame, and a second part being free to rotate about the vertical of the resting surface with respect to the load-bearing frame.

The slitter-scorer machine includes a suction unit for removing trims cut by the cutting blades. The suction unit in turn includes a first pair of suction nozzles associated with a first set of cutting tools, and a second pair of suction nozzles, associated with a second set of cutting tools. The first pair of suction nozzles is adapted to suck trims generated by the first set of cutting tools and the second pair of suction nozzles is adapted to suck trims generated by the second set of cutting tools.

A system for converting and attaching material strips to a substrate includes a dispenser configured to advance an en elongated tape having length l1 and width w1 with l1>w1 relative to a surface of a substrate. A cutting tool cuts the elongated tape transversely along the width w1 of the tape to produce a strip having length l2 and width w2. During the cutting, a portion of the cutting Stool pushes a first surface of the strip against a gripper while cutting the tape. The gripper holds the first surface of the strip against the gripper while moving to position an opposing, second surface of the strip over the surface of the substrate. The gripper releases the strip after positioning the strip.

There is provided a cutting mechanism including: a cutter blade that can cut a medium, a cutter unit to which the cutter blade is attached, a first pinion gear that is rotatably attached to the cutter unit, and a rack gear that can mesh with the first pinion gear, in which the first pinion gear and the rack gear are configured with inclined teeth, and the cutter unit moves while the pinion gear is rotated in state of meshing the pinion gear and the rack gear.

A laminating apparatus, in which films can be heated sufficiently, has a simple structure and allows films to be loaded easily. The laminating apparatus includes a sheet feed mechanism unit configured to convey a sheet into an apparatus main body, a film supply unit, and a press-bonding mechanism unit configured to perform a thermal press-bonding process while sandwiching the sheet between a pair of films. A sheet feed unit including the sheet feed mechanism unit is appropriately changeable between an open state and a closed state. The film supply unit includes rollers at supply positions where the films sufficiently wind around heating rollers of the press-bonding mechanism unit. The sheet feed unit includes counter rollers configured to abut the rollers in the closed state and separate from the rollers in the open state.

In a unit for a cutting apparatus, a first shaft, a second shaft, first blades and second blades individually have conductivity. A detection means includes a power source, a first wiring, a second wiring, a plurality of light emitting devices, a third wiring, and a fourth wiring. The first wiring electrically connects the first shaft and the power source. The second wiring electrically connects the second shaft and the power source. The plurality of light emitting devices are respectively attached to a plurality of holders. The third wiring electrically connects each of the plurality of light emitting devices and the first shaft. The fourth wiring electrically connects the plurality of light emitting devices and a plurality of the first blades respectively.

There is provided a recording apparatus including: a recording unit that is configured to be capable of moving in a width direction of a medium and records an image on the medium; and a cutter unit that is configured to be connectable to the recording unit and cuts the medium by moving in the width direction, in which the recording unit has a first connection portion and a second connection portion for connecting with the cutter unit, and the cutter unit has a first engagement portion for engaging with the first connection portion and a second engagement portion for engaging with the second connection portion.
