Coil feeding device and graphic machine thereof
A coil feeding device and a graphic machine thereof are provided. The coil feeding device includes a roller mechanism for carrying a coiled material, a base mechanism, and a compression rod mechanism. The roller mechanism includes a shaft penetrating through the shaft hole and a tension structure disposed on the shaft. The tension structure includes a first sleeve, a second sleeve and a tapered fixing member. When the first sleeve and the second sleeve are fixed to each other, the tapered fixing member holds the shaft to achieve mutual fixation of the coiled material and the shaft. By providing the second sleeve, the first sleeve and the tapered fixing member that cooperate with each other, the coiled material and the shaft are fastened to each other quickly, thereby improving production efficiency. Through the base mechanism, the coil feeding device is directly used on existing graphic machine for material processing.
LINE FOR THE PRODUCTION OF SPOOLS OF WEB MATERIAL
The line comprises: an unwinding section (3) for unwinding parent reels (Ba, Bb, Bm) of web material (Na, Nb), with at least a first unwinding station (5; 7); at least a winding station (15) downstream of the unwinding section (3); a feed path from the unwinding section (3) toward the winding station (15);
The unwinding section (3) is associated with a loading arrangement of the parent reels (Bm), which comprises: an upender (253; 306) configured to upend the parent reels (Bm) positioning them with their axis horizontal; and a loading robot (263; 313), configured to position a parent reel (Bm; Ba, Bb) on an unwinding mandrel (9) of the unwinding section (3).
FOIL TRANSFER FILM CARTRIDGE AND FOIL TRANSFER DEVICE
A foil transfer film cartridge includes a supply reel on which a foil film having a widthwise dimension of a first width is wound, and a supply shaft longer in a widthwise direction of the foil film than the first width. The supply shaft is configured to support the supply reel in a manner that allows the supply reel to move in the widthwise direction between a first position and a second position different from the first position.
Feed Tray and Image Recording Apparatus
A feed tray includes a first accommodation part in which a roll body having a configuration where a first sheet-shaped medium is rolled in a roll shape is accommodated, a conveyance guide configured to define a conveyance path for a roll medium which is the first sheet-shaped medium unrolled from the roll body accommodated in the first accommodation part, and a shutter movable between an intercept position where the shutter is located in the conveyance path and a retreat position where the shutter is further from the conveyance path than the intercept position.
Image Forming Apparatus
An image forming apparatus includes: a housing; a feed tray insertable into and removable from the housing and accommodating a sheet-shaped medium; a feed roller feeding the sheet-shaped medium; an image forming device; and a movement mechanism. The feed tray includes: a first accommodation portion accommodating a roll body, a first sheet-shaped medium being rolled in a roll shape as the roll body; and a second accommodation portion accommodating a second sheet-shaped medium which is shorter than the first sheet-shaped medium. The movement mechanism moves to a first position where the feed roller contacts the first sheet-shaped medium unrolled from the roll body accommodated in the first accommodation portion and a second position where the feed roller contacts the second sheet-shaped medium accommodated in the second accommodation portion.
Printing apparatus
Provided is a printing apparatus including: a holder unit provided with a holding member, a contact portion, and a shaft member, and an apparatus body provided with a support portion, and a fixing portion, wherein the shaft member is configured to be detachably attached to the support portion, the holder unit is configured to be rotatable between a first position and a second position with reference to the shaft member in a state where the shaft member is supported on the support portion, the first position is a position where the shaft member is attached to the support portion, and the second position is a position where the apparatus body fixes the holder unit by the fixing portion, the second position being a position where the contact portion is separated from the installation surface.
THERMAL-TRANSFER PRINTING APPARATUS, THERMAL-TRANSFER PRINTING SYSTEM, AND REVERSE UNIT
A thermal-transfer printing apparatus includes a roll-paper-supplying unit that rotates an image-receiving paper roll and unwinds and winds a roll type of first image-receiving paper, and a print unit that includes a thermal head for heating a thermal transfer sheet and that forms an image by transferring a color material from the thermal transfer sheet to the first image-receiving paper. With the image-receiving paper roll removed, a reverse unit that reverses a sheet type of second image-receiving paper is mountable in a region in which the image-receiving paper roll used to be contained. The print unit forms the image on the first image-receiving paper in a first printing mode in which the image-receiving paper roll is contained in the region, and the print unit forms an image on both surfaces of the second image-receiving paper in a second printing mode in which the reverse unit is mounted on the region.
Printer with housing for rolled paper
A printer includes a case including an input port for rolled paper, a cover provided to be rotatable between a closed position of the input port and an open position of the input port, a holding portion that holds the rolled paper, a biasing member that biases the holding portion in a first direction, a stopper mechanism that stops rotation of the holding portion in the first direction, and a linkage mechanism that rotates the holding portion in conjunction with the rotation of the cover. When the cover is in the closed position, the holding portion rotates in the first direction in accordance with an outer diameter of the rolled paper by a biasing force of the biasing member. When the cover rotates from the closed position to the open position, the holding portion rotates together with the cover against the biasing force of the biasing member.
Accumulator for processing line and method of using same
A processing line processes logs of convolutely wound web material and has upstream and downstream sections. A main accumulator has buckets that receive, hold, and release logs. An input feeder receives logs from the upstream section and conveys them to a bucket of main accumulator. A loader has a loader accumulator and loader buckets that receive, hold, and release logs. A transfer conveyor between the main accumulator and the loader receives a log from the main accumulator bucket and conveys the log a loader bucket independently of the input feeder. The loader receives a log from the transfer conveyor. The loader conveys the log in the loader bucket to a discharge of the loader. The loader discharge discharges the log from the loader bucket to the downstream section of the processing line.
FEED DEVICE
A feed device includes: a feed tray configured to accommodate a roll, in which a medium is rolled in a roll shape, rotatably; a housing configured to support the feed tray installable; and a pull-back mechanism configured to pull back the medium unrolled from the roll in a direction orthogonal to a rotation axis of the roll in conjunction with an outward movement of the feed tray from the housing in the direction orthogonal to the rotation axis of the roll.
