According to an example, a media roll support may comprise a sliding element movable along a guide, a hub to receive the media roll and a coupling plate. The hub may comprise an elastic element biased towards a first side of the media roll. The coupling plate may be attached to the hub and to the sliding element. Upon holding the media roll, a deformation of the elastic element may tilt the sliding element. The tilting of the sliding element may lock the sliding element movement, thereby preventing its movement.

The present invention disclosure relates to an adhesive tape dispenser (1) comprising a handle (2), a receiving apparatus (33) with a bearing (3) for an adhesive tape roll (100), an application apparatus (38) with an application roller (4), and a rotation-resistant fixed friction bridge (5) with a bridge sliding surface (6) and a deflection bead (26), wherein the adhesive tape dispenser (1) is adapted and arranged such that, during unwinding, an adhesive tape portion (103) of an adhesive tape roll (100) present on the bearing slides or is slidable over the bridge sliding surface (6), before it meets the application apparatus (38).

A material strip collection mechanism coiling fed material strip on a reel includes a vertically positioned reel bracket rotatable about a vertical axis between a first configuration and a second configuration. The mechanism further includes a first arm holding the reel and a second arm each rotatable to drive the reel and coil the material strip on the reel. With the reel bracket in the first configuration, the first arm is in a material strip collection position to allow the material strip to be coiled on each empty reel held by the first arm to form a full reel, while the second arm is in a standby position to allow the full reel held by the second arm to be replaced with a new empty reel.

A transfer apparatus for a material for an electrode according to an embodiment of the disclosed technology includes an apparatus body; a gripping device configured to grip a reel wound around a current collector; a first moving device connected to the gripping device and the apparatus body and configured to move the gripping device; a position changing device configured to rotate the reel when the reel is seated; and a first discharge device disposed on one side of the apparatus body and configured to discharge the reel to the outside of the apparatus body when the rotated reel is seated.

A material strip collection mechanism coiling fed material strip on a reel includes a vertically positioned reel bracket rotatable about a vertical axis between a first configuration and a second configuration. The mechanism further includes a first arm holding the reel and a second arm each rotatable to drive the reel and coil the material strip on the reel.

A reel handling machine includes first and second re-reeling assemblies coupled to a frame. The re-reeling assemblies each include a reel mount supporting a first reel and a re-reel mount supporting a second reel. The re-reeling assemblies operated to unwind a product strip from the first reel and rewind the product strip on the second reel. The reel handling machine includes a reel manipulator positioned proximate to the re-reeling assemblies configured to automatically remove the second reel from the re-reel mount after the product strip is rewound on the second reel and move the second reel to a remote location.

An adhesive tape dispenser (1) includes a handle (2), a receiving apparatus (33) with a bearing (3) for an adhesive tape roll (100), an application apparatus (38) with an application roller (4), and a rotation-resistant fixed friction bridge (5) with a bridge sliding surface (6) and a deflection bead (26), wherein the adhesive tape dispenser (1) is adapted and arranged such that, during unwinding, an adhesive tape portion (103) of an adhesive tape roll (100) present on the bearing slides or is slidable over the bridge sliding surface (6), before the adhesive tape portion meets the application apparatus (38).

A discontinuous manufacturing process performs at least one processing step on a web of material unwound from a roll, applies an indicator code to the unwound web of material for indicating at least one finishing step the web of material is to be subjected to, rewinds the web of material having the indicator code on another roll and then transfers the rewound web of material to a remote finishing facility. At the remote finishing facility, the web of material is again unwound and transported towards a finishing station. The indicator code on the web of material is read at the finishing station and then directed to a location where an appropriate finishing step is performed on the web of material prior to it being rewound on a roll to form a product roll.

A winding apparatus for a rotor core may include a fiber unwinder that unwinds a fiber material for winding the rotor core. The winding apparatus may include a plurality of guide roller assemblies that guide the fiber material unwound from the fiber unwinder to the rotor core. The winding apparatus may include a tension roller assembly that is provided between the plurality of guide roller assemblies and measures a tension of the fiber material. The winding apparatus may include a core support that is provided so that the rotor core is rotatable with respect to a core shaft, the rotor core is movable in an axial direction of the core shaft, and the rotor core is tilted with respect to the core shaft.

A paper roll carrying device is equipped with movable-type paper clamping arms for clamping paper rolls with different widths. The paper roll carrying device includes two paper clamping arms and two supporting mechanisms. The supporting mechanisms are respectively installed on the corresponding paper clamping arms. Each supporting mechanism includes a first support member, a second support member and a third support member. The supporting mechanism is specially designed to have the take-out slant surfaces on the supporting members. The supporting mechanism can be used to support paper cores with different diameters. When the user intends to remove the paper roll, it is not necessary to release the paper clamping arms.
