摘要:
Adhesion between the overlying plies of a flattened tubular web of plastic film material is eliminated by drawing the web lengthwise past a rod which is supported in a position transverse to the web and is interposed between its plies.

A flat apertured endless belt has an upper stretch riding on air intake grills. Its apertures register with the air intakes to apply suction to the underside of substrate on it. Substrate lengths are impositively driven toward said stretch, faster than it moves, along a feed table having its top surface parallel to but above that of said stretch. Downstream from the table a hold down finger forces the medial portion of each substrate length into tractive engagement with the belt while its side edge portions are supported by rails coplanar with the table top, bowing it to an upwardly concave transverse curvature which insures that the length behind it will edgewise abut it.

FEEDING MECHANISM SUCCESSIVELY BRINGS ARMATURE CORES AND COMMUTATORS THEREFOR TO AN ASSEMBLY STATION WHEN THEY ARE HELD IN COAXIAL ENDWISE SPACED RELATIONSHIP AND WHERE ROTATION IMPARTING MECHANISM BRINGS EACH ARMATURE CORE AND COMMUTATOR PAIR INTO CORRECT ANGULAR RELATIONSHIP. A RAM THEN PUSHES THE COMMUTATOR AXIALLY TOWARDS THE ARMATURE CORE WITH THE TERMINAL TANGS ON THE COMMUTATOR FACING THE CORE, AND PRESSES IT ONTO THE SHAFT THEREOF, MOVING THE COMMUTATOR THROUGH A DIE WHICH STRAIGHTENS TANGS THAT MAY BE ASKEW. THE TANG STRAIGHTENING DIE HAS A ROUND HOLE THAT SLIDABLY ACCEPTS THE COMMUTATOR, AND LONGITUDINALLY EXTENDING CIRCUMFERENTIALLY SPACED PARALLEL GROOVES THAT SLIDABLY ACCOMMODATE THE TANGS. WHEN THE COMMUNATOR REACHES PROPER POSITION ON THE ARMATURE SHAFT, AND WHILE STILL IN THE DIE, A TANG SHARPING MEMBER HAVING CIRCUMFERENTIALLY SPACED PARALLEL FINGERS, ONE FOR EACH TANG, TELESCOPES OVER THE COMMUTATOR, EACH FINGER MOVING ALONG ONE OF THE GROOVES TO ENGAGE UNDER THE TANG THEREIN AND LIFT IT INTO CONTACT WITH THE BOTTOM OF THE GROOVE.
