Then, the bandage suction roll 46 which is arranged on the silicone layer 12 side (for example, the upper side) of the back side packing sheet 57 and sucks the bandage 1 manufactured by the bandage manufacturing unit 21 and transports it to the sticking position, and the back side packing sheet 57 On the other hand, a bandage sticking-down roll 69 is provided on the opposite side (for example, lower side) of the bandage suction roll 46 and comes into contact with the back side packaging sheet 57 at the position where the bandage 1 is stuck. The bandage suction roll 46 is also used as the cutting means 30. The bandage suction roll 46 and the bandage sticking and holding roll 69 have a rotation axis in the width direction of the back side packaging sheet 57 and are provided across the entire width direction of the back side packaging sheet 57. The bandage 1 adsorbed on the bandage suction roll 46 is adhered to the back side wrapping sheet 57 in synchronism with the rotation.
[0057]
The bandage suction roll 46 sucks the bandage 1 cut by the cutting means 30 from the side opposite to the adhesive section 3 at the suction position, transports the bandage 1 to the sticking position by rotation thereof, and places the bandage 1 on the back side wrapping sheet 57 at the sticking position. 1 is adhered from the side of the adhesive portion 3. Note that the bandage suction roll 46 can suction the bandage 1 from the suction position of the bandage 1 (including the front side when the main body sheet is suctioned from the near side) to the sticking position. It is desirable that it be sufficient so that it cannot be adhered to other parts. For example, a vacuum case may be provided only between the suction position and the adhesion position.
[0058]
The adhesive bandage press roll 69 is arranged on the back side of the backing sheet 57 on the side opposite to the silicone layer 12, and comes into contact with the back side packing sheet 57 at the sticking position. Note that the adhesive bandage holding roll 69 may be pressed against the adhesive bandage suction roll 46 via the back side wrapping sheet 57 at the attaching position.
[0059]
The wrapping sheet superimposing means 61 superimposes the front wrapping sheet 56 from the adhesive bandage 1 side on the back side wrapping sheet 57 to which the adhesive bandage 1 is adhered, and includes an overlapping guide roll 70.
[0060]
The superposition guide roll 70 is provided on the silicone layer 12 side (for example, upper side) of the back side packaging sheet 57 over the entire width direction thereof, and guides the front side packaging sheet 56 between the back side packaging sheet 57 and the back side packaging sheet 57. Thus, the front wrapping sheet 56 and the back wrapping sheet 57 are overlapped so as to sandwich the bandage 1. The overlapping guide roll 70 is formed by a line connecting a back side wrapping sheet guide roll 71 that guides the back side wrapping sheet 57 on the upstream side thereof and a pair of close contact rolls 72 of the downstream side wrapping sheet sticking means 62, which will be described later. Is also provided on the lower side, the back side wrapping sheet 57 is bent in a V-shape, and the front side wrapping sheet 56 and the back side wrapping sheet 57 are overlapped at the bent portion. The superposition guide roll 71 may be provided so that the back packaging sheet 57 is substantially straight without being bent between the back packaging sheet guide roll 71 and the packaging sheet sticking means 62.
[0061]
In addition, the front side wrapping sheet 56 and the back side wrapping sheet 57 are formed in substantially the same width dimension, and just overlap. That is, the sum of the widths of the first sheet 54 and the second sheet 55 excluding the overlapping portion 65 is substantially equal to the width of the front-side wrapping sheet 56.
[0062]
The wrapping sheet sticking means 62 is for bonding the superimposed front wrapping sheet 56 and the back wrapping sheet 57 to each other by heat sealing at the peripheral portion of the adhesive plaster 1, and sandwiches the front wrapping sheet 56 and the back wrapping sheet 57 on both sides ( For example, a pair of close contact rolls 72 arranged on both upper and lower sides are provided. Each of the close contact rolls 72 has a rotation axis in the width direction of the front-side wrapping sheet 56 and the back-side wrapping sheet 57, and is provided across substantially the entire width direction.
[0063]
The close contact roll 72 has a plurality of recesses (non-heating portions) 73 formed in the circumferential direction corresponding to the non-contact portions 17 of the bandage product 6 to be manufactured. The sheet 56 and the back side packaging sheet 57 are heat-sealed. Therefore, the front-side wrapping sheet 56 and the back-side wrapping sheet 57 are heat-sealed almost entirely except for the portion overlapping the bandage 1 and the vicinity thereof. Note that, other than the heat sealing, an adhesive or the like may be used to make close contact.
[0064]
Each of the close contact rolls 72 also has a role as a transport roll for feeding the first sheet 54, the second sheet 55, and the front side wrapping sheet 56 out of the raw rolls 51, 52, 53 and transporting them. The first sheet 54, the second sheet 55, and the front side wrapping sheet 56 may be conveyed by rotating and driving guide rolls 70, 71, and 75 appropriately disposed on the conveyance path of each sheet. You may make it convey by a conveyor. When a conveyance conveyor is provided, each sheet may be suctioned and conveyed.
[0065]
The cutting means 63 cuts the front-side wrapping sheet 56 and the back-side wrapping sheet 57 between the adjacent bandages 1 in a substantially linear manner across the entire widthwise direction at a portion where the front-side wrapping sheet 56 is in close contact with the bandage 1. For example, a wrapping sheet cut roll 77 provided on the upper side of the wrapping sheet 56 and the back side wrapping sheet 57 and provided with a cutting blade 76 on the outer periphery, and a side opposite to the wrapping sheet cut roll 77 with respect to the front side wrapping sheet 56 and the back side wrapping sheet 57 ( (For example, the lower side) and a cut receiving roll 78 that receives the packaging sheet cut roll 77 at the cutting position. The wrapping sheet cut roll 77 and the cut receiving roll 78 have a rotation axis in the width direction of the front side wrapping sheet 56 and the back side wrapping sheet 57, and are provided over the entire width direction. The front wrapping sheet 56 and the back wrapping sheet 57 are sequentially cut between the bandages 1 while rotating in synchronization with the conveyance of the wrapping sheet 57.
[0066]
A plurality of, for example, four cutting blades 76 are provided on the outer periphery of the packaging sheet cut roll 77 in the circumferential direction so as to protrude radially over substantially the entire length in the axial direction.
[0067]
The accumulation conveyor 64 conveys and accumulates the manufactured adhesive bandage package 6, and conveys the adhesive bandage package 6 at a speed lower than the conveying speed of the front side wrapping sheet 56 and the back side wrapping sheet 57, so that the adhesive bandage wrapping is performed. The body 6 is transported in an overlapping manner.
[0068]
Next, a method of manufacturing the adhesive bandage 1 and the adhesive bandage package 6 using the adhesive bandage manufacturing apparatus 20 having the above configuration will be described. First, the production of the bandage 1 by the bandage producing unit 21 will be described.
[0069]
In the bandage producing section 21, the main body sheet 23 is unwound from the raw roll 24 by the rotation power of a part or all of the perforating means 25, the pad sticking means 29, the cutting means 30, and the trim collecting means 32, and along the transport path. The adhesive bandage 1 is manufactured while being transported continuously.
[0070]
First, a number of small holes 5 are formed in the main body sheet 23 by the perforating means 25. At this time, the perforation roll 34 and the perforation receiving roll 35 rotate so as to be synchronized with the conveyance of the main body sheet 23, and the small holes 5 are sequentially formed over substantially the entire width of the main body sheet 23 passing therebetween. Since the perforating needle 33 is heated, the perforating roll 34 perforates the main body sheet 23 while melting.
[0071]
Next, an adhesive is applied to the main body sheet 23 by the adhesive applying means 27. At that time, the hot melt gun 36 injects the adhesive downward, and sequentially applies the adhesive to substantially one side surface of the main body sheet 23 passing below the adhesive sheet over the entire width.
[0072]
On the other hand, the pad section 4 is cut out from the pad sheet 38 by the pad section forming means 28, and the pad section 4 is supplied to the pad attaching means 29. At this time, the pad portion suction roll 41 sucks the tip side of the pad sheet 38 and pays out, and cuts the tip portion of the pad sheet 38 by the pad cut roll 40 which rotates in synchronization with the pad portion suction roll 41 to form the pad portion 4. Then, while the pad portion suction roll 41 is holding the pad portion 4, the pad portion 4 is conveyed by rotation to a sticking position to the main body sheet 23.
[0073]
In addition, slippage occurs between the pad sheet 38 and the pad suction roller 41, and the pad suction roller 41 sucks and transports the pad portion 4 at a predetermined interval in the circumferential direction.
[0074]
Then, the pad section 4 is attached to the main body sheet 23 by the pad section attaching means 29 via an adhesive. At this time, the pad portion suction roll 41 and the pad portion sticking / holding roll 43 rotate so as to be synchronized with the conveyance of the main body sheet 23, and the pad portion suction roll 41 is provided substantially at the center in the width direction of the main body sheet 23 passing therebetween. The pad portions 4 adsorbed on the outer periphery of 41 are attached in a line. Since the pad portions 4 are sucked at predetermined intervals in the circumferential direction on the pad portion suction roll 41, the pad portions 4 can be attached to the main body sheet 23 at predetermined intervals.
[0075]
Thereafter, the bandage 1 is cut out by the cutting means 30 from the main body sheet 23 to which the adhesive has been applied and the pad portion 4 has been stuck. At this time, the bandage cut roll 45 and the bandage suction roll 46 rotate so as to be synchronized with the conveyance of the main body sheet 23, and sequentially cut the bandage 1 corresponding to each pad portion 4 from the main body sheet 23 passing therebetween. The bandage suction roll 46 successively sucks the cut bandage 1. The cutting means 30 cuts the bandage 1 laterally at predetermined intervals in the conveying direction of the main body sheet 23 so as to leave a continuous trim 31 between the bandages 1 and on both sides in the width direction.
[0076]
Then, the trim 31 is collected by the trim collecting means 32. At this time, the winding core 49 rotates, and the trim 31 formed continuously is wound and collected.
[0077]
Next, a description will be given of a case where the bandage 1 manufactured by the bandage manufacturing unit 21 is packed by the bandage packing unit 22 to manufacture the bandage package 6. In the adhesive bandage packaging section 22, the close contact roll 72 of the wrapping sheet contacting means 62 draws out the first sheet 54, the second sheet 55, and the front side wrapping sheet 56 from each of the material rolls 51, 52, 53 by the rotational power thereof, and each transport path. Are conveyed continuously along the line.
[0078]
First, the first sheet 54 and the second sheet 55 are fed out in parallel so that the respective silicone layers 12 face in the same direction, and the inner side edges in the width direction thereof are overlapped by the side edge overlapping means 58. The overlapping portion 65 is formed. At that time, the side end portions of the first sheet 54 and the second sheet 55 are bent to the opposite side to the silicone layer 12 and overlapped so that the silicone layers 12 face each other.
[0079]
FIG. 8 is an explanatory view exemplifying one mode of folding the first sheet 54 and the second sheet 55 by the folding device 66. The folding device 66 has a guide plate (a guide plate for guiding the first sheet and the second sheet as described below). (Not shown) is provided. The sheet is conveyed in a state in which about twice the final folding allowance overlaps vertically (see FIG. 8A). The lower side of the first sheet 54 and the second sheet 55, for example, the overlapped portion of the second sheet 55 The first sheet 54 is bent to the side opposite to the silicone layer 12 so that the first sheet 54 can be bent (see FIG. 8B). Next, the first sheet 54 is folded toward the side opposite to the silicone layer 12 by the amount of folding (see FIG. 8C), and thereafter or in parallel with the folding of the first sheet 54, the second sheet 55 is folded. The amount is returned to the final folding allowance (see FIG. 8D). This completes the bending.
[0080]
In addition, the first sheet 54 and the second sheet 55 may be vertically separated from each other, and both may be bent substantially simultaneously by a margin, or may be bent in various other modes. In addition, the arrangement of the folding device 66 may be appropriately changed. For example, a bent portion where the first sheet 54 and the second sheet 55 are bent in the conveying direction is provided, and the folding is performed corresponding to the bent portion. If the container 66 is provided, the sheets 54 and 55 can be bent smoothly.
[0081]
Next, the first sheet 54 and the second sheet 55 are brought into close contact with each other by a heat seal at the overlapping portion 65 by the side end contact means 59. At this time, the pair of close contact rolls 67 rotate so as to be synchronized with the conveyance of the first sheet 54 and the second sheet 55, and the first sheet 54 and the second sheet 55 passing therebetween are heat-sealed at the overlapping portion 65. Go.
[0082]
Then, the adhesive bandage 1 is adhered to the back side wrapping sheet 57 in which the first sheet 54 and the second sheet 55 are closely adhered at the overlapping portion 65 by the adhesive bandage attaching means 60. At that time, the bandage suction roll 46 and the bandage sticking and holding roll 69 rotate so as to synchronize with the conveyance of the backside wrapping sheet 57, and the first wrapping sheet 57 and the second plying sheet 55 pass through the backside wrapping sheet 57. The bandage 1 is stuck so that the silicone layer 12 and the adhesive portion 3 are in contact with each other. The bandage suction roll 46 suctions the bandage 1 cut by the cutting means 30 horizontally at a predetermined interval in the circumferential direction, and holds the bandage 1 on the back side wrapping sheet 57 sideways at a predetermined interval in the transport direction. Stick it on.
[0083]
Next, the front side packaging sheet 56 is superimposed on the back side packaging sheet 57 from the bandage 1 side by the packaging sheet superposing means 61. At this time, the superposition guide roll 70 bends the back side packaging sheet 57 in a V-shape, and guides the front side packaging sheet 56 between the back side packaging sheet 57 and the back side packaging sheet 57 at the bent portion and superimposes them. Note that the front side packaging sheet 56 may be overlapped with the back side packaging sheet 57 in a straight state without bending.
[0084]
Then, the front-side wrapping sheet 56 and the back-side wrapping sheet 57 are brought into close contact with each other by heat sealing at the peripheral portion of the bandage 1 by the wrapping sheet attaching means 62. At this time, the pair of close-contact rolls 72 rotate in the transport direction of the front-side wrapping sheet 56 and the back-side wrapping sheet 57, and the front-side wrapping sheet 56 and the back-side wrapping sheet 57 that pass between them are brought into close contact with each other. Each of the close-contact rolls 72 has a concave portion 73 formed on the outer periphery corresponding to the non-contact portion 17 of the adhesive bandage package 6 to be manufactured, and the other side of the heating section 74 connects the front-side wrapping sheet 56 and the back-side wrapping sheet 57. Heat sealing is performed on almost the entire area except for the portion overlapping the bandage 1 and the vicinity thereof.
[0085]
Thereafter, the cutting unit 63 cuts the front wrapping sheet 56 and the back wrapping sheet 57 between the bandages 1 in the width direction to obtain the bandage package 6. At this time, the wrapping sheet cut roll 77 and the cut receiving roll 78 rotate so as to synchronize with the conveyance of the front side wrapping sheet 56 and the back side wrapping sheet 57, and pass the front side wrapping sheet 56 and the back side wrapping sheet 57 therebetween to each of the bandages. At approximately the middle of 1, it is cut into a substantially straight line corresponding to the contact portion.
[0086]
Then, the stacking conveyor 64 overlaps the adhesive bandage package 6 and transports it to a predetermined transport position by the cutting means 63.
[0087]
The adhesive bandage package manufacturing apparatus 20 of the present embodiment has the following effects. That is, since the adhesive bandage manufacturing section 21 of the present embodiment includes the adhesive applying means 27 for applying an adhesive to the main body sheet 23 fed from the raw roll 24, the main body sheet to which the adhesive has been applied in advance is used. 23 need not be used, and the production cost of the bandage 1 can be reduced. Further, since there is no need to provide a device for peeling off the protective sheet of the pressure-sensitive adhesive and a device for collecting the peeled-off protective sheet, which is indispensable when using the main body sheet 23 with the pressure-sensitive adhesive, the configuration of the entire device is simplified. As a result, the occurrence of troubles and the like can be reduced, and the size and cost of the apparatus can be reduced.
[0088]
Since the adhesive applying means 27 is provided on the lower side of the perforating means 25, the adhesive does not adhere to the perforating needle 33 of the perforating roll 34.
[0089]
Since rollers that rotate in synchronization with the conveyance of the main body sheet 23 are used for the respective means of the perforating means 25, the pad attaching means 29, and the cutting means 30, for example, a member that reciprocates in the vertical direction or the like as each means ( As compared with the case where a perforated member, a cutting blade or the like is used, the production speed of the bandage 1 (conveying speed of the main body sheet 23) can be increased. That is, when a reciprocating member is used, the main body sheet 23 needs to be intermittently conveyed, whereas when a roller is used as in the present embodiment, the main body sheet 23 is conveyed continuously. And time loss due to intermittent feeding can be eliminated. In addition, the roller rotation mechanism is simpler than a mechanism for intermittent feeding, a reciprocating member drive mechanism, and the like, and the bandage manufacturing unit 21 can be made to have a simple configuration as a whole.
[0090]
Since the roller is also used in the pad portion forming means 28, the same effect as described above can be obtained. Further, since the cut-out pad portion 4 is adsorbed on the outer periphery of the pad portion suction roll 41 and is conveyed to a position where the pad portion 4 is attached to the main body sheet 23, the main body sheet 23 has a simple configuration. The pad portion 4 can be accurately adhered to a predetermined location.
[0091]
In addition, the adhesive bandage packaging part 22 of the present embodiment includes a long back side packaging sheet 57 having a first sheet 54 and a second sheet 55 in which the side ends are overlapped in the width direction, and a silicone layer on one side thereof.

A packaging sheet superimposing means 61 for superimposing on the back side packaging sheet 57 so as to sandwich the front side and a packaging sheet adhering means 62 for adhering the superimposed front side packaging sheet 56 and the back side packaging sheet 57 at the peripheral portion of each bandage 1; Cutting means 63 for cutting the front-side wrapping sheet 56 and the back-side wrapping sheet 57 between the bandages 1 to be obtained to obtain the bandage wrapper 6, so that the bandage without the protective sheet of the adhesive portion 3 is provided. It can be produced Sokarada 6.
[0092]
Since a roller that rotates in synchronization with the conveyance of the back-side wrapping sheet 57 and / or the front-side wrapping sheet 56 is used for each of the adhesive banding means 60, the wrapping sheet sticking means 62, and the cutting means 63, for example, As compared with the case where a member (adhering member, contact member, cutting blade, etc.) that reciprocates in the vertical direction or the like is used, the production speed of the adhesive bandage package 6 (the transport speed of each of the packaging sheets 56 and 57) can be increased. it can. That is, when the reciprocating member is used, the back-side wrapping sheet 57 and the front-side wrapping sheet 56 need to be intermittently conveyed, whereas when the rollers are used as in the present embodiment, they are continuously conveyed. And time loss due to intermittent feeding can be eliminated. In addition, the roller rotating mechanism is simpler than a mechanism for intermittent feeding, a driving mechanism for a reciprocating member, and the like, so that the bandage packaging unit 22 can have a simple configuration as a whole.
[0093]
Side end overlapping in which the widthwise inner side ends of the first sheet 54 and the second sheet 55 are overlapped on the upper side of the bandage sticking means 60 such that the silicone layer 12 faces each other to form an overlapping portion 65. Since the means 58 and the side end contacting means 59 for adhering the first sheet 54 and the second sheet 55 to each other at the overlapping portion 65 are provided, the first back side wrapping sheet part 10 and the second back side wrapping sheet part 11 are provided. Can be manufactured so that the silicone layer 12 is opposed to each other at the overlapping portion 13 and is closely adhered at the overlapping portion 13.
[0094]
Since the bandage 1 cut by the bandage manufacturing unit 21 is adsorbed on the outer periphery of the bandage suction roll 46 and transported to the position where the bandage 1 is stuck to the back side wrapping sheet 57, the back side despite the simple configuration. The bandage 1 can be accurately adhered to a predetermined portion of the packaging sheet 57.
[0095]
