  • the practical embodiment according to claim 4 serves hygienic separation of used strip material from the clean one.
  • the solution according to claim 5 enables the particularly simple Start of the winding process and one accordingly easy detachment of the wound strip material from the winding body.
  • the training according to claim 6 can be permanent Loosen magnets or electromagnets; any Electromagnets have the advantage that they can only be Start interval of the winding process must be in operation.
  • Tubular rolls according to claim are also easy to handle 7, they will be used when returning the used cloth advantageously left in the roll and are corresponding easy to do.
  • the development according to claim 10 is particularly space-saving and economical.

  • the only axis 18 of the swivel roller 19 is at the end in Two swiveling bearing supports opposite each other 17 stored, which in turn, together with a inner, hollow cylindrical guide element 15 pivotable in Axis and bearing 26 is guided in two roller carriers 16.
  • the axis 26 drives a winding roller 27 with a magnetic Slot 25.
  • a second caster 11 with axis 12, which with their bearing support 13 and a outer guide element 14 is also rotatable about the axis 26 is.
  • smoothing rollers 23 and 24 Underneath there are so-called smoothing rollers 23 and 24, whose axes 21 or 22 in rectangular roller carriers 28 are freely rotatable.
  • This process is characterized by two arrows in FIG. 1.
  • the two guide elements 14 and 15 pull on their Swivel path after additional tape material, whereby the in Fig. 2 indicated loop 3 forms that in a known Hangs out of the apparatus housing 1 and drying hands serves.
  • FIG. 3 A preferred type of power transmission from the lid la to Swivel device is shown in Fig. 3.
  • Fig. 1 Compared to Fig. 1 here is an additional operating lever 30 can be seen, which in a recess 31 by a Screw 34 is guided with flange; be linear Displacement is characterized by a double arrow.
