MESH DISPENSER
A dispensing device configured to operate with an adhesive backed mesh and backing film for tissue bonding is disclosed. The dispensing device provides for low-friction, low force pay-out of a desired length of an adhesive backed mesh to a wound site. The device prevents or eliminates distortion of the mesh prior to application to the wound site, and includes means for reducing or eliminating binding during use. The dispensing device is configured to operate in a “forward” mode (substrate to which mesh is applied passes beneath applicator after mesh is applied) to provide essentially an unobstructed view of the wound site during use.
Coating film transfer tool
The coating film transfer tool includes: a feeding core around which transfer tape is wound and that feeds a piece of transfer tape, the piece of transfer tape including a piece of base tape and a coating film that is provided on one surface of the piece of base tape; a transfer head that presses the coating film against a transfer target and transfers the coating film thereonto; a winding core that winds up the piece of base tape from which the coating film has been transferred; and an intermediate roller that rotates as the piece of transfer tape travels, in contact with a first surface of the piece of transfer tape fed from the feeding core, the first surface being a surface on which the coating film is not provided. A second surface of the intermediate roller is adhesive with respect to the first surface.
Flexible material dispenser
A dispensing device configured to operate with an adhesive backed mesh and backing film for tissue bonding is disclosed. The dispensing device provides for low-friction, low force pay-out of a desired length of an adhesive backed mesh to a wound site. The device prevents or eliminates distortion of the mesh prior to application to the wound site, and includes means for reducing or eliminating binding during use. The dispensing device is configured to operate in a “forward” mode (substrate to which mesh is applied passes beneath applicator after mesh is applied) to provide essentially an unobstructed view of the wound site during use.
COATING TRANSFER TOOL
The coating film transfer tool includes a feeding portion that feeds tape with a coating film, a transfer head that transfers the coating film from the tape onto a transfer target surface, a cassette to which the transfer head is fixed, and a head cap. Shaft portions are provided on either the head cap or the transfer head/cassette, and shaft bearing holes are provided on the other one. Due to relative rotation of the shaft portions, the head cap rotates between a closed position for covering the transfer head and an open position for exposing the transfer head. The distances from the rotation axis to the shaft portion and to the shaft bearing hole change along the circumferential direction. The head cap is biased toward the closed position when located on the closed position side, and is biased toward the open position when located on the open position side.
APPLICATOR FOR STAMPED PARTS
The invention relates to a method for applying stamped components (8) to holes (15) in surfaces (12) by a stamped component strip (10) having the stamped components (8) being unrolled from a stamped component strip roll (2), a starting position of one of the stamped components (8) being detected by means of a first sensor (6), the stamped component strip (10) being driven by means of a drive until the stamped component (8) has reached the starting position, the first sensor (6) then transmitting a stop signal and the drive being stopped and by means of a second sensor (7) the holes (15) in the surface (12) being detected, and, when one of the holes (15) is detected, a start signal being transmitted and the drive being started and the stamped component (8) being released from the stamped component strip (10) and applied to the hole (15).
COATING FILM TRANSFER TOOL
A coating film transfer tool may include a supply reel, a transfer tape, a transfer head, a winding reel, and a power transmitting mechanism. The tool may include a base member having the transfer head and a rotation restraining portion capable of directly restraining rotation of the supply reel. The base member may be rotatably supported between the transfer head and the rotation restraining portion by a base member supporting shaft. The tool may include a resilient restoring mechanism interposed between the base member and the housing. The base member may rotate and restraint of rotation of the supply reel is released when the transfer head is pressed against a transferred surface, and the base member is restored to an original position by the resilient restoring mechanism to restrain rotation of the supply reel when pressing of the transfer head is released.
HORIZONTAL-PULL COATING FILM TRANSFERRING TOOL
A horizontal-pull coating film transferring tool may include a supply reel, a transfer head, a take-up reel, and a power transmitting mechanism. The tool may also include a base member, wherein a transfer head is attached and a rotation locking member having a supply reel engaging pawl able to lock rotation of the supply reel is disposed. The base member may be supported so as to be able to rotate. Through an elastic return mechanism, a rotational lock of the supply reel is released through rotation of the base member when the transfer head is pressed and the rotation of the supply reel is locked through the base member returning to an original position. A rotation supporting shaft for the supply reel and the take-up reel is disposed so as to be substantially perpendicular to the direction of a pressing edge portion on the front end in the transfer head.
Coating film transfer tool
A coating film transfer tool in which a rotational torque with the least variability may be generated without being affected by a surface state of a resilient body may include: a paying-out core having a coating film transfer tape wound thereon; and a rewinding core that rewinds the coating film transfer tape after use. The paying-out core and the rewinding core are interlocked via a power transmission mechanism in a case. The transmission mechanism generates a rotational torque by a frictional force on a sliding surface between components, by using a restoring force of a resilient body. The resilient body is configured to rotate integrally with a component A that comes into contact with one end of the resilient body and a component B that comes into contact with the other end.
Applicator for die-cut parts and method for applying die-cut parts to surfaces, and a die-cut part strip
The invention relates to an applicator for die-cut parts (2), having a die-cut part strip (1) with a longitudinal direction (L) having a carrier layer (3) and an adhesive layer (4), where an outer contour of the die-cut parts (2) is punched through the carrier layer and adhesive layer (3, 4) down to predetertnined breaking points (18) and a die-cut part complement (19) protrudes beyond the die-cut parts (2) continuously laterally to a longitudinal direction (L), and a punch head (8) over which the die-cut part strip (1) runs, where the die-cut parts (2) running over the punch head (8) face away from the punch head (8) by their adhesive layer (4), and the die-cut parts (2) can be pressed by means of the punch head (8) onto a surface (11).
