A medium conveying device includes a body in which a conveying path is formed, a separator configured to supply a first medium that is arranged on one side among a plurality of media to the conveying path, a conveyor configured to convey the first medium that is being conveyed and that is arranged on the conveying path along the conveying path, and a rib that protrudes from the one side to a conveying path part between the separator and the conveyor in the conveying path.

An arm for an unwinder for unwinding rolls is disclosed. The arm includes an axial engaging member for engaging the rolls. The axial engaging member has a shaft supported by at least two support bearings mounted on the arm, so as to rotate around a rotation axis. A brake is also provided, adapted to act on the shaft. The brake is at least partially arranged between the two support bearings.

A loading apparatus including a support surface facing forward and inclined vertically downward from a paper exit of a printer body and configured to come into contact with a first surface of a printed material, the first surface forming a vertically downward surface in the paper exit, a braking member provided near the paper exit and configured to come into contact with the first surface and to hold a part, whixh contacts therewith, of the printed material, and a stopper configured to come into contact with a downstream leading end of the printed material at a paper ejection direction in which the printed material is ejected. The stopper is configured to be located at a first position and a second position on the support surface, in which a distance between the second position and the paper exit is greater than a distance between the first position and the paper exit.

A tape dispensing device with a tape head pivotally mounted on a housing. The first end of the tape head features a cutting tool and the second end features one or more protrusions or feet. Adjacent to the tape head and located on an inner surface of the housing is an arc or trough shaped stop that is complementary in shape to the second end of the tape head. When the user applies force to the first end of the tape head while placing tape on a separate surface, the tape head rotates causing the foot or feet on the tape head to push the length of tape into the trough causing it to stick to the trough. At the same time, the foot creases the tape causing the free end of the tape to stiffen or stick out.

A tape dispenser housing wound adhesive tape includes a brake spoke tapering (i.e., narrowing) from a distal radial end to a proximal radial end relative to a tape rotational axis, wherein the brake spoke effectuates the braking of wound adhesive tape on a hub by contacting the wound adhesive tape, the hub, or both simultaneously.

A device for decelerating a transported and flat shaped product includes a brake operable by an air jet supplied by an air jet nozzle. The air jet nozzle is configured to impinge the air jet on a braking force implementing body to exert a braking force on the flat shaped product. The braking force implementing body includes: at least one first element, which has a physical structure for a return-flow of the air jet supplied by the air jet nozzle, and at least one second element, which for the braking force implementation is in an operative connection with the first element. The second element is configured to implement an impulse force caused by the air jet from the air jet nozzle. The impulse force results as the braking force onto the flat shaped product.

The stopper is configured to be located at a first position and a second position on the support surface, in which a distance between the second position and the paper exit is greater than a distance between the first position and the paper exit.

An arm (5; 5A, 5B) for an unwinder (1) for unwinding rolls (B) is disclosed. The arm includes an axial engaging member (11) for engaging the rolls (B). The axial engaging member (11) has a shaft (11.3) supported by at least two support bearings (15, 17) mounted on the arm (5; 5A, 5B), so as to rotate around a rotation axis (A-A). A brake (23) is also provided, adapted to act on the shaft (11.3). The brake (23) is at least partially arranged between the two support bearings (15, 17).
