Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a mode for transporting a long sheet such as a long strip-shaped label-forming base material, and more particularly to a mode for transporting a long sheet having excellent handling properties in a use stage.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art A tubular shrink label or the like to be mounted on a container such as a bottle is formed by folding a long label-forming base material to which a number of shrink labels are connected into a sheet and forming a sheet. Shipped to the user in the form of a sheet roll wound on a pipe, the user sets this sheet roll on a feeding device of a labeling device, cuts the individual shrink labels while feeding the label-forming base material,
This is generally mounted on a container such as a bottle. These sheet rolls are usually shipped (transported) one by one or several in a state of being housed in a cardboard box or the like.

Therefore, when setting the sheet roll in the feeding device of the labeling device, the user has to open each cardboard box and take out the sheet roll each time, and the setting work of the sheet roll to the labeling device is required. Cannot be performed quickly and efficiently. Further, since the cardboard box after taking out the sheet roll has to be discarded as garbage, there is a problem that it takes time and effort to dispose of the cardboard box.

Further, since the length of a label-forming base material that can be wound as a sheet roll is naturally limited, the sheet roll set in the feeding device of the labeling device must be frequently replaced. The labeling device cannot be operated efficiently. For this reason, conventionally, by connecting a plurality of sheet rolls to each other and continuously feeding out the label forming base material from the plurality of sheet rolls,
The number of sheet roll replacements is reduced to operate the labeling device efficiently.

However, in order to continuously draw out the label-forming base material from the plurality of sheet rolls, the paper tube is first removed from the sheet roll, and then the winding start portion is pulled out. Attached to the reel,
In addition to stacking the reels in multiple stages, it is necessary to perform troublesome and troublesome work such as connecting the winding start portion and the winding end portion of the sheet roll mounted on the adjacent reel to each other. In this case, there is a problem that the workability of setting the sheet roll to the labeling device is further reduced.

Further, as described above, in order to mount the sheet roll on the reel with the paper core removed, a certain amount of play is required between the sheet roll and the core member of the reel. Since the shape retention of the sheet roll itself is reduced by removing the reel, if the reel is rotated at a high speed, there is a possibility that the roll collapses due to the displacement of the mounted sheet roll, and the labeling device is operated at a high speed. There is also a problem that can not be.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION It is an object of the present invention to provide a transportation mode which is excellent in handling at the stage of using a long sheet such as a label-forming base material.

[0008]

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION In order to solve the above-mentioned problems, the present invention is directed to a plurality of winding members each having a disc-shaped flange member attached to one end of a core member around which a long sheet is wound. The reels, which are stacked in multiple stages in a state in which the reels are prevented from rotating, and the winding reel group are placed,
A base having a mounting table supported rotatably at a fixed position, and a fixing means for fixing the winding reel group to the mounting table, in a state where a winding start portion is pulled out of the flange member, A long sheet is wound around each of the winding reels, and a winding start portion of the long sheet wound around one of the adjacent winding reels is wound around the other winding reel. The present invention provides a transport mode of a long sheet in which the wound end portion of the long sheet is connected to each other. In addition, the "long sheet" referred to here is a long band-shaped film, sheet, or a wide sheet including a tube folded in a flat state formed of various materials such as synthetic resin, paper, and metal. It is a concept.

In the transport mode configured as described above, in a state where the long sheets wound on the respective winding reels are connected to each other in advance, the respective winding reels are formed as a group of winding reels stacked in multiple stages. Since it is rotatably supported on a table, the user sets the transport mode in a feeding device such as a labeling device and directly rotates the winding reel group by a driving source of the feeding device, thereby immediately increasing the length. It becomes possible to feed out the shaku sheet. Therefore, it is not necessary to take out a sheet roll from a cardboard box or the like and set it on a reel as in the related art, and the setting work of the sheet roll can be performed efficiently.

Further, since the long sheet is wound directly on the core member of the winding reel in advance, even if the winding reel is rotated at a high speed, the wound long sheet may be displaced horizontally. Since it does not cause collapse and does not easily occur, it can sufficiently cope with high-speed operation of a labeling device or the like.

After all of the long sheets wound on each of the winding reels have been used, they are returned as they are, so that the components such as the winding reel and the base are repeated to form a long sheet. Can be used for transportation, so that it is possible to reduce the labor and cost involved in the disposal of a cardboard box performed after opening, as in the related art.

According to a second aspect of the present invention, the fixing means has a center axis which penetrates a center portion of the winding reel group and is fixed to the mounting table. However, in those having a pressing portion that contacts the upper end surface of the core member of the uppermost winding reel and presses the winding reel group against the mounting table from above, the stack is stacked in multiple stages. The plurality of winding reels are reliably integrated, and the posture of the winding reel group during transportation and during use (during rotation) is stabilized.

[0013] In particular, as in the transportation mode according to claim 3, the base includes a plurality of columns that stand up from the base outside the winding reel group mounted on the mounting table, A top plate fixed to an upper end of each of the pillars, wherein the top plate is formed with an engagement hole into which a non-circular stopper provided in the center axis and having a non-circular cross-sectional shape is fitted. In this case, the rotation of the mounting table and the winding reel group fixed to the mounting table during transportation is prevented, and the transportation can be performed in a stable state. In use, by removing the top plate, the winding reel group fixed to the mounting table can be immediately rotated.

According to a fourth aspect of the present invention, a length of the flange member of each of the winding reels extending radially outward from a peripheral edge thereof and wound around the adjacent winding reel. In the case where a stopper member for hooking the connecting portion of the length sheet in the circumferential direction of the flange member is attached, the connecting portion of the long sheet is positioned to some extent in the circumferential direction of the flange member by the stopper member. The connecting portion is less likely to be displaced due to vibration during transportation or rotation and stop operation of the winding reel during use, and can be transported in a more stable state. The winding state of the long sheet wound on the winding reel adjacent to the winding reel being unwound is loosened and does not drop off beyond the flange member. Smoothly over the winding reel can be carried out feeding a long sheet.

Is fed out, thereby winding the long sheet S
The connecting portion Sc of the long sheet S does not become free even when the diameter of the
4, the tension state is always maintained in a predetermined tension state, so that the winding state of the long sheet S of the lower winding reel 10 adjacent to the winding reel 10 from which the long sheet S is fed is loosened. The long sheet can be smoothly fed from the uppermost winding reel 10 to the lowermost winding reel 10 without causing winding collapse.

In this embodiment, the suspension portion 32b of the central shaft 32 is used as a peripheral stop portion so as to fit into the engagement hole 26a formed in the top plate 26.
It is also possible to provide a peripheral stop portion having a non-circular cross-sectional shape separately from b.

Further, in this embodiment, the annular plate 33 and the pressing portion 32a of the central shaft 32 are formed by separate members, but both may be integrally formed on the central shaft 32.

Further, in this embodiment, the flange member 13 is attached only to the lower end side of the core member 11. However, the present invention is not limited to this, and the flange members 13 are attached to the upper and lower ends of the core member 11. It is also possible.
