A reel change device whereby a first strip, unwound off a runout reel, and a second strip, unwound off a new reel, are fed along an S-shaped path defined by two adjacent suction conveyor rollers with selectively-activated suction devices; the speed and timing of the strips are synchronized; the strips are then cut simultaneously along a first portion of the path, defined by the first roller, and are connected end-to-end as they travel at constant speed along a second portion of the path; and the cut-off portion of the second strip is fed by the first roller to a disposal container.

An apparatus for continuously winding web material into a succession of rolled packages includes spaced side frames which define a transfer path leading from a first winding station to a second winding station. A plurality of rotatably driven winding drums extend between the side frames and support the cores and packages wound thereon during a winding operation which begins at the first winding station and continues during transfer of the cores to the second winding station. Tracks are fixed to the side frames which mount a transfer carriage movable on the tracks between the first and second winding stations. A first hold down mechanism and a first rider roll are carried by the carriage and a second hold down mechanism and second rider roll are located at the second winding station. The first hold down mechanism engages grooves in the ends of mandrels which are inserted into the cores to axially stabilize the mandrels. Both the first and second hold down mechanisms are simultaneously engageable with the grooves in the mandrel ends during hand off from one to the other at the second winding station. The first rider roll is applied continuously at the first winding station and as the packages are shifted along the transfer path to the second winding station. Both the first and second rider rolls are simultaneously applied to packages at the second winding station. During transfer the nipping force is maintained within acceptable limits by adjusting the forces being applied to the package by the first hold down mechanism and the first rider roll.

A form, fill, seal and separate packaging machine wherein receptacle forming, filling and sealing is accomplished by a plurality of stations disposed along the path of travel of a web which continuously moves through the packaging machine. Both the base web material and the lid web material are supplied to the packaging machine from supply rolls of appropriate material. Not only are the work stations of the machine constructed and disposed so that the packaging operation is performed on a continuously moving web, but also both the base and lid web supplies include primary and secondary rolls so that the source of web material may be replenished without interrupting the continuous movement of the web material through the machine. Once the receptacles have been formed, filled and sealed, the packaging machine further includes an intermittent drive station for perforating and cutting the sealed receptacles from the main web body.

The present invention relates to a continuously running rewinder with a pressure roller for winding a paper web, for instance, from a supercalender onto a reel-up drum. The rewinder comprises roll stands, which are provided with a primary drive for rotating a rewinding reel-up drum, a pressure roller assembly including the pressure roller via which the web is routed to pass before entering the rewinding reel-up drum and which can be actuated to swing from an open position to a closed position toward the roll stands so that the pressure roller assembly is pressed against the rewinding reel-up drum to form with it a nip for the web. The rewinder includes a pressing bar, whose path of movement is adapted to pass between the pressure roller and the rewinding reel-up drum and via which the web is routed to pass so that when the bar is in its lower position and the pressure roller assembly in its open position the bar holds the web at a lower level than that of the nip. The rewinder also includes a rail-carriage combination for transferring a completed roll on the reel-up drum off from the roll stands to an exit point, as well as a movable secondary drive, which can be switched over to rotate an almost completed rewinding reel-up drum during the splicing and severing operations of the web. The rewinder in accordance with the present invention facilitates a flying reel-up drum change when using a mandrel rewinder with a pressure roller assembly for rewinding a paper web.

Apparatus for continuously supplying a web of sheet material wound on rolls includes a conveyor which carries a roll from a loading station to a splicing station and then to an active or running station. While a running web is being drawn off a roll at the active station, a standby roll is loaded on the conveyor at the loading station and then it is advanced to the splicing station. A stationary core brake located at the active station is responsive to the tension of the running web and applies a drag to the core on which the web of the active roll is wound to maintain the tension at a selected level. When the web on the active roll is nearly exhausted, an endless belt in frictional engagement with the standby roll is driven by a motor and accelerates the roll until the peripheral speed of the latter is equal to about 99 per cent of the linear speed of the running web and then the belt is driven from the running web so that the two speeds match. At that time, the web of the active roll is spliced to the web of the standby roll, which thus becomes the new active roll, and the core brake stops the core of the first active roll. Simultaneously, a stationary brake responsive to the tension of the web running from the second active roll applies a drag to the periphery of the latter through the belt to maintain the tension in the new running web. As the new active roll is advanced to the active station, the belt moves with it so that the belt brake continues to control the tension of its web. The belt brake continues this control until the new active roll is in the active station and the core brake is engaged with the roll and energized at which time the belt brake is simultaneously deenergized to complete the transfer of the running web from the first roll to the second.

Apparatus for the centerless winding of a roll of foil comprises a pressure roller which urges a core and the foil against a rotating contact roller to cause preliminary winding of the foil on the core. The partially wound core is then transferred to a final winding position for completion of the winding followed by wrapping.
