The invention relates to a device, in particular a roll cross-cutter, for forming a shingle stream of underlapping or overlapping sheets, in particular of paper or carton sheets, having a transport apparatus for transporting sheets, having a shingling apparatus for underlapping or overlapping sheets in regions, having a deceleration apparatus, downstream of the shingling apparatus in the transport direction of the sheets, for decelerating shingled sheets, in particular by forming a deceleration gap for the passage of shingled, combined sheets, and, preferably, having a cross-cutting apparatus upstream of the shingling apparatus for cutting a material web into individual sheets. According to the invention, the shingling apparatus is designed to be adjustable, in dependence of the cut length, in and/or opposite the transport direction of the sheets.

A roll of sanitary tissue product that includes a shaped line of weakness, wherein the roll of sanitary tissue product exhibits a roll compressibility of from about 2% to about 10%, and the sanitary tissue product has a Full Sheet Average Trapezoidal Tear Strength of about 8 g to about 20 g, as measured by the Full Sheet Average Trapezoidal Tear Force Method.

A roll of sanitary tissue product that includes a shaped line of weakness, wherein the roll of sanitary tissue product exhibits a roll compressibility of from about 2% to about 10%, and a Full Sheet Tensile Strength of between about 400 g and about 850 g, as measured by the Full Sheet Tensile Strength Test Method.

A web of toilet tissue that includes a shaped line of weakness, wherein the toilet tissue exhibits a LWP Factor of greater than about 7, and an average Free Fiber End value of greater than about 1.5.

An apparatus, in particular roll-type cross cutter, is shown and described, further in particular for forming a shingled stream of underlapping or overlapping sheets, in particular sheets of paper or cardboard, having a cross-cutting device for cutting a material web into individual sheets and having a web storage upstream of the cross-cutting device along the web transport path for storing and/or providing a material web, the material web being fed to the web storage from a web unwinding. According to the invention, it is provided that the web storage for storing the material web is arranged in the region of the cross-cutting device below the running height of the sheets.

A sheet feeder, which is configured to feed a sheet to a processing machine, includes a main body, a cutting unit, and an attaching portion. The cutting unit is attached to the main body and includes a cutter slidable in a first direction. The cutting unit is configured to cut, along in the first direction, the sheet to be fed to the processing machine with the cutter. The attaching portion is configured to attach the main body to the processing machine. The attaching portion is attachable to the shaft of the processing machine.

A printer includes a first blade configured to be movable between a standby position and a cutting position, a second blade configured to contact the first blade located in the cutting position, a drive mechanism configured to drive the first blade, and a first elastic member configured to pull the first blade located in the cutting position. When the first blade is located in the cutting position, the first elastic member pulls the first blade in a direction in which the first blade moves to the standby position, and pulls the first blade in a direction in which the first blade approaches the second blade.

A perforating apparatus includes a longitudinal cylinder axis about which a cylinder rotates. At least one shaped anvil is disposed on the cylinder. Further, a support operatively engages with the cylinder, and the support is moveable with respect to the cylinder. A blade is disposed on the support so as to cooperate in contacting relationship with the anvil, and the blade is substantially parallel to the longitudinal cylinder axis. At least one of the blade and the anvil comprises a plurality of teeth, and adjacent teeth are separated by a recessed portion. A web is perforated as the web passes between the rotating cylinder and the support and the blade cooperates with the anvil.

A perforating apparatus and method includes a longitudinal cylinder axis about which a cylinder rotates. At least one shaped anvil bead is disposed on the cylinder. The cylinder including an anvil block and an anvil bead form a cavity. The cavity may be used to control the debris produced during the perforating process. A blade is disposed on a support to cooperate in contacting relationship with the anvil bead. A web is perforated as the web passes between the rotating cylinder and the support and the blade operatively engages with the anvil bead. The debris may be controlled by being drawn into the cavity prior to the point where the blade engages the anvil and, subsequently, being expelled after the point where the blade engages the anvil bead.

A shearing device (1) having a blade (2) with at least one blade cutting edge (5) which is helically coiled, and rotatable, about an axis of rotation (R) of the blade (2). The blade cutting edge (5) is assigned a counterpart blade cutting edge (4) of a counterpart blade (3). The shearing movements, by which for example bristle filaments (7) of brushes (8) for machining can be cut to length, are generated by relative rotational movement of the at least one helically coiled blade cutting edge (5) with respect to the preferably static counterpart blade cutting edge (4) of the counterpart blade (3). Since the blade (2) and the counterpart blade (3) can keep their spacing to one another constant during operation, there is a relatively low risk of injury during the use thereof.
