A hygienic paper roll holder that is gentle for elderly and toddlers and can be replaced without touching a used paper roll core and a replacement paper roll with a relatively simple configuration and easy operation with one hand. The paper roll holder comprises a U-shaped holder body, support parts for moving and supporting both sides of toilet paper, the support parts being attached to the U-shaped holder body, and a movable tray that has a stationary part for placing a replacement toilet paper and a holding part for temporarily holding a used core. By moving this movable tray up and down by hand, the used core supported by the support parts and the replacement toilet paper on the stationary part can be exchanged.

A system for replacing a reel of material for the production of electrical energy storage devices and comprising a self-driving vehicle for transporting a reel from a storage or receiving station to a change station is described; at least one support spindle carried by the vehicle and configured to support the reel and to transfer it, at the change station, to a feeding unit of an automatic machine for the production of the storage devices; and a gripping member carried by the vehicle and comprising at least one gripper configured to receive and grip an initial flap of the reel supported by the support spindle and to keep such initial flap tensioned along an unwinding path of the same.

A packaging machine for packaging goods in film packages, equipped with a device for receiving and holding a surface element roll, so as to process it in a packaging machine by unrolling the surface element and introducing the surface element into the packaging machine, comprising an axle to be incorporated into the surface element roll on its rotational axis of symmetry, wherein the axle is received in a swivel receiver, and the axle for unrolling the surface element is held with the swivel receiver in a roughly vertical alignment.

A Support for adhesive tape, including: a cylindrical, or substantially cylindrical, body configured to be inserted inside the tubular core of the adhesive tape; a base, associated with the cylindrical body, to which, in turn, a connecting element to an operator’s garment, or to an operator’s accessory, or to further parts of the operator’s equipment, is associated; at least a retractable element, provided along the lateral surface of said cylindrical body, including a control suitable for selectively actuating said retractable element from a retention configuration of the adhesive tape on the cylindrical body, to a configuration of free removal of the adhesive tape from the cylindrical body, and vice versa.

The invention relates to a release liner removal apparatus, comprising at least one release liner removal device for removing at least one release liner from at least one adhesive piece arranged on a material web, at least one support body which supports the at least one release liner removal device, and at least one guide body which is arranged adjacent to the at least one release liner removal device at least during the removal of the at least one release liner and which serves for guiding the material web.

The invention relates to a plant having at least one material roll preparation arrangement for bringing a material roll carrying a material web to be drawn in into a defined initial situation, and having at least one material web working/processing arrangement, in particular material web dispensing arrangement, in particular material web unrolling arrangement, in particular material web splicing arrangement, which material web working/processing arrangement is capable, owing to the defined initial situation of the material roll, of receiving the material roll in automated fashion and preferably receiving the material web in automated fashion and/or preparing the material web in automated fashion.

A supply device for a roll medium includes a drawer-type lower holding unit configured to support a shaft of a roll medium to hold the roll medium, and a guide member configured to be pressed in a direction toward the shaft from below to come into contact with the roll medium held by the lower holding unit, and be displaced in accordance with a change in an outer diameter of the roll medium. In addition, the lower holding unit is configured to be drawn from a main body of the supply device in a first direction. When the lower holding unit, in a drawn-out state, is stored in the main body of the supply unit, the guide member comes into contact with the roll medium. The guide member is caused to be retracted downward from a travel path of the lower holding unit against a force pressing upward from below.

Method for spatially arranging coils, the method comprising: providing electronic data about an initial storage state, which electronic data contains information about a respective initial diameter of the coils and a respective initial spatial storage position of the coils in a coil store; transporting a selected coil from an initial storage position to a processing machine for processing at least a portion of the sheet metal of the selected coil; sensing a reduced diameter of the selected coil after the portion of the sheet metal has been removed from the selected coil for processing by the processing machine; storing the reduced diameter of the selected coil; transporting the selected coil having the reduced diameter to a depositing storage position which, depending on the reduced diameter, is selected to differ from the initial storage position in a manner that saves storage space; and storing the depositing storage position.
