Description

  The present invention relates to a transfer tool that can contribute to the reuse of recyclable members and the improvement of the reduction of discarded members.

  A transfer tool for transferring a transfer medium to a transfer medium such as paper includes a feed shaft portion, a take-up shaft portion, and a transfer portion in a housing as a main component. The delivery shaft portion includes a delivery core in which a transfer tape having a transfer medium coated on a base material is wound, and power transmission means such as a gear that interlocks with the rotation of the delivery core. On the other hand, the take-up shaft portion rotates in conjunction with power transmission means such as a gear that interlocks with the rotation of the delivery shaft portion, and power transmitted from the delivery shaft portion of the power transmission means. And a winding core for winding the substrate after the transfer medium is transferred to the transfer body. The transfer unit presses the transfer tape against the transfer target body and moves the whole of the transfer tape on the transfer target body while pressing the transfer tape, thereby applying a transfer driving force of the transfer tape to the sending shaft unit.

In recent years, the above-mentioned transfer tool has also been tended to reuse recyclable members and reduce the number of discarded members. For example, in the following Patent Documents 1 to 4, they are discarded after use and newly purchased. Various techniques for a so-called refillable transfer tool including a member that can be refilled and a member that can be reused without being discarded are disclosed.

  Patent Documents 1 and 2 are cartridges in which a refill member is a cartridge in which a transfer core wound around a transfer tape, a winding core, and a transfer unit are integrally stored, and a member that is reused without being discarded is a feed core, It is a housing main body provided with each drive means of a winding core, and couple | bonded with this cartridge.

  In Patent Documents 3 and 4, a refill member is a delivery core and a take-up core wound with a transfer tape, and members that are reused without being discarded are drive means for the delivery core and the take-up core, A housing body including a transfer unit. In Patent Documents 3 and 4, a jig for integrally arranging the delivery core and the winding core is used, and this jig is discarded after refilling.

  However, Patent Documents 1 to 4 have room for the following improvements in order to reuse recyclable members and reduce discarded members. In Patent Documents 1 and 2, the cartridge housing, the sending core, the winding core, and the transfer unit are discarded, although the refilling is simple by simply replacing the cartridge with respect to the housing body. On the other hand, since Patent Documents 3 and 4 are jigs, delivery cores, and winding cores compared to Patent Documents 1 and 2, the number of discarded parts is small, but the delivery cores and winding cores are still discarded (refilling) members. It is said.

  The problem to be solved by the present invention is that, in the conventional refill-type transfer tool including Patent Documents 1 to 4, the sending core and the winding core are still used as the refilling member (discarding member). It is a point that improvement of reuse of possible members and reduction of discarded members could not be expected.

  The transfer tool of the present invention comprises a moving means for moving the sending core and the take-up core in the arrangement direction of the take-up core and a discharge means for discharging the take-up core from the case when the transfer tape is replaced. It consists of a body.

  In the transfer tool according to the present invention, the take-up core (and the base material wound around the transfer core) is discharged from the casing by the moving means and the discharge means, while the delivery core up to that point is taken up by the transfer means. Move to position. Therefore, in the transfer tool according to the present invention, the member that is replaced and discarded is only the winding core (and the base material wound around the winding core), and the number of discarded members can be dramatically reduced.

  The present invention can be implemented in the following forms. 1-6 shows the 1st form of the transfer tool of this invention. FIG. 7 shows a second embodiment of the transfer tool of the present invention. 8 to 12 show a third embodiment of the transfer tool of the present invention. 13-17 shows the 4th form of the transfer tool of this invention. In the first embodiment, the basic configuration of the present invention will be described, and in the following embodiments, only the configuration different from any of the previous embodiments will be described.

(First form)
The transfer tool 1 according to the present invention includes a delivery core 2 in which a transfer tape (a reference number and an illustration not shown) is applied to a base material P1, and a transfer medium on a transfer target (not shown and a reference number). A winding core 3 that winds up the base material P1 after the transfer, and a transfer unit 4 that is exposed from a casing 11 (described later) in the middle of the transport path of the base material P1 of the sending core 2 and the winding core 3; Have

  Next, the casing 11 provided with the delivery core 2, the winding core 3, and the transfer unit 4 will be described. Here, the “direction” in the illustration and description of the transfer tool 1 and the designation of the delivery core 2 are described. The correspondence is defined as follows.

  In the transfer tool 1, a surface that pivotally supports the axes of the delivery core 2 and the take-up core 3 is referred to as a “side surface”, and a side on which gears 2 a and 3 a to be described later are disposed on both sides is referred to as an “arrangement side”. The side that operates 2 and the winding core 3 is referred to as an “operation side”.

  In the transfer tool 1, the side on which the transfer unit 4 is located is referred to as “front”, and the opposite side is referred to as “rear”.

Further, in the transfer tool 1, the side facing the delivery side of the transport path of the base material P1 is referred to as “lower”, and the side facing the winding side of the transport path of the base material P1 is referred to as “upper”.
The term “inside” means the side facing the inside of the housing 11.

  In the following description, the sending core 2 ′, the sending core 2, and the winding core 3 are different from each other only in the winding state and the position of the transfer tape P. The name is merely changed depending on the mounting state of the housing 11.

  In other words, in the following description, the delivery core 2 that is to be attached to the casing 11 is referred to as “delivery core 2 ′”, and is wound from the delivery position of the transfer tape P of the casing 11 and from the delivery position. The delivery core 2 in a state of moving to the take-up position is “delivery core 2”, a state where the transfer core P is mounted on the transfer tape P of the housing 11 and a state after being ejected from the housing 11 from the take-up position. The delivery core 2 in FIG. 5 is referred to as a “winding core 3”.

  The housing 11 includes a fixed case 11A and an operation case 11B. In the fixed case 11A, the gear 2a of the delivery core 2 and the gear 3a of the winding core 3 mesh with the intermediate gear Ga and are rotatably supported on the inner side of the arrangement side surface. These gears 2a, 3a, and Ga do not move in the direction from the arrangement side to the operation side.

  The delivery core 2 and the take-up core 3 are coaxially disposed so as to be rotatable together with the gear 2a and the gear 3a, and are movable in the direction of the operation side-the arrangement side. As usual, the transfer tool 1 presses and moves the transfer tape P against the transfer object in the transfer unit 4, and this friction interlocks with the transfer and winding of the transfer tape P (base material P 1). The delivery core 2, the gear 2a, the gear 3a, and the winding core 3 rotate.

  In addition, the delivery core 2 and the take-up core 3 are respectively formed with flange portions 2b and 3b whose diameters are enlarged via small diameter portions at shaft end portions facing the operation side surfaces. The flange portions 2b and 3b are engaged and gripped by grip rails 11Bb and 11Bc described later.

  11 A of fixed cases will be in an open state in order to ensure the opening which only moves the new sending core 2 'by which the transfer tape P was wound by the side of operation to the operation side-arrangement | positioning side, and the new sending core 2 An opening / closing door 11Aa is provided that is closed after 'is mounted. That is, only the opening / closing door 11Aa exists on the operation side surface of the fixed case 11A.

  Further, the fixed case 11A pivotally supports the support shaft 4A of the transfer portion 4 by the inside of the opening / closing door 11Aa and the inside of the arrangement side surface when the opening / closing door 11Aa is closed. The transfer part 4 itself (tip) is provided exposed from an opening formed in the front surface. The fixed case 11A has no rear surface.

  A rail 11Ab as shown in FIG. 3 is formed on the rear portion on the upper surface of the fixed case 11A and on the front portion and the rear portion on the lower surface. The configuration of the rail 11Ab will be described by using the rail 11Ab on the rear of the upper surface of the fixed case 11A shown in FIG.

  The rail 11Ab is formed by a substantially rectangular groove having a long side in the front-rear direction, and a projection 11Ba of an operation case 11B to be described later is fitted into the projection 11Ba (operation case 11B) at a point A and a point B. , Point C, point D in this order.

  The rails 11Ab formed on the rear part on the upper surface of the fixed case 11A, the front part and the rear part on the lower surface are all located at the point A before the arrangement side, the point B before the operation side, and the point C after the operation side. D is after the arrangement side.

  The rail 11Ab is formed with slopes Aa, Ba, Ca, Da having upward gradients from point A to point B, from point B to point C, from point C to point D, and from point D to point A, respectively. Steps Ab, Bb, Cb, Db are formed at the boundary between the top of the slope and each point.

  By configuring the rail 11Ab as described above, the protrusion 11Ba (operation case 11B) can be guided in one direction along the slopes Aa, Ba, Ca, Da sequentially from the point A as described above, and vice versa. In the direction, inadvertent movement can be suppressed by the step portions Ab, Bb, Cb, and Db.

  The rail 11Ab only needs to be present at at least one location such as the rear side of the upper surface of the fixed case 11A. If the rail 11Ab is also present on the rear side of the lower surface of the fixed case 11A, the operation case 11B can be moved more reliably. When it exists also in the front side in the lower surface of 11A, the shakiness at the time of the movement of the operation case 11B can be suppressed.

  As shown in FIG. 4, the operation case 11 </ b> B in the housing 11 has an upper surface and a lower surface, and corresponds to each rail 11 </ b> Ab of the fixed case 11 </ b> A at one place inside the upper surface and two places inside the lower surface. A protrusion 11Ba is formed to fit therewith. Further, the operation case 11B does not have the arrangement side surface and the front surface but has the rear surface. Further, the operation case 11B has an operation side surface that comes into contact with the rear end portion of the opening / closing door 11Aa when the protrusion 11Ba is positioned at the point A of the rail 11Ab.

  A gripping rail 11Bb (corresponding to the feeding core 2) and a gripping rail 11Bc (corresponding to the winding core 3) are formed on the operation side surface of the operation case 11B. ing. The gripping rails 11Bb and 11Bc allow the delivery core 2 and the take-up core 3 to rotate, hold the feed core 2 and the take-up core 3 and move them in the front-rear direction, and are in the arrangement state. It slides with respect to the delivery core 2 and the winding core 3.

  The grip rail 11Bb will be described as a representative example. The grip rail 11Bb is opposed to each other with a distance corresponding to the diameter of the flange portion 2b in the state of FIG. And a horizontal surface 11Bbb continuously formed perpendicular to the opposing direction of the vertical surface 11Bba from the vertical surface 11Bba.

  That is, the gripping rails 11Bb and 11Bc are engaged with the horizontal surfaces 11Bbb and 11Bbb, respectively, by engaging the surfaces of the flange portion 2b of the feed core 2 and the flange portion 3b of the take-up core 3 with the horizontal surfaces 11Bbb and 11Bbb. The winding core 3 is gripped. Moreover, the arrangement | positioning location of the sending core 2 and the winding core 3 can be moved with the movement along rail 11Ab of the operation case 11B so that it may mention later by holding rail 11Bb and 11Bc.

  A discharge portion 11Bd for quickly discharging the take-up core 3 out of the housing 11 is formed inside the rear portion of the operation side of the operation case 11B when the delivery core 2 described later is replaced. The discharge portion 11Bd is substantially triangular when viewed from below or above, and when the operation case 11B moves from point D to point A of the rail 11Ab, it reaches the apex of the substantially triangular shape. The end face on the operation side of the winding core 3 is pushed to the arrangement side by the inclined surface, and discharged from the discharge space S (see FIG. 6) formed on the arrangement side of the fixed case 11A and the operation case 11B.

  In the transfer tool 1 of the first embodiment, the “moving means” that moves the sending core 2 and the winding core 3 in the direction in which the winding core 3 is arranged, that is, the direction of the discharge portion 11Bd at the time of replacement. The operation case 11B of the body 11, the gripping rails 11Bb and 11Bc in the operation case 11B, the rail 11Ab of the fixed case 11A and the protrusion 11Ba of the operation case 11B, the delivery core 2 (which will be described in detail later, but the winding core 3 in the present invention) Is originally the delivery core 2).

  In the transfer tool 1 of the first embodiment, the “discharge means” for discharging the winding core 3 from the housing 11 includes, in addition to the configuration of the moving means, the discharge portion 11Bd of the operation case 11B, The operation case 11B and the fixed case 11A are constituted by a discharge space S generated on the mutual arrangement side.

  The transfer tool 1 of the first form discharges the take-up core 3 around which the used base material P1 is wound according to the procedures of FIGS. 5 and 6, and a new delivery core 2 ′ around which the transfer tape P is wound. Load and replace. In the state shown in FIG. 1, that is, the transfer tool 1 in the use state, the housing 11 is in a closed state.

  The closed state of the housing 11 refers to a state in which the protrusion 11Ba of the operation case 11B is located at the point A of the rail 11Ab of the fixed case 11A and there is no gap between the fixed case 11A and the operation case 11B. Further, at this time, both the delivery core 2 and the take-up core 3 are gripped so that the flange portion 2b and the flange portion 3b are rotatable by the grip rail 11Bb and the grip rail 11Bc, respectively.

  When all of the transfer tape P (base material P1) of the delivery core 2 is taken up by the take-up core 3 and the delivery core 2 'is loaded, the housing 11 is first opened. As shown in FIG. 5A, opening the housing 11 means that the upper part of the door 11Aa is rotated to the operation side with the lower part as the center, and the operation case 11B is operated with respect to the fixed case 11A. It means that the state is moved in the direction of the side.

  When the operation case 11B is moved in the direction of the operation side, the protrusion 11Ba of the operation case 11B moves from the point A to the point B of the rail 11Ab of the fixed case 11A, and accordingly the sending core 2 and the winding core 3 is a state gripped by the gripping rail 11Bb and the gripping rail 11Bc, and is in a state of being separated from the shafts of the gear 2a and the gear 3a.

  Next, as shown in FIG. 5B, when the operation case 11B is moved backward, the delivery core 2 is moved to the arrangement position of the take-up core 3 while being held by the holding rail 11Bb and the holding rail 11Bc. The winding core 3 moves to the discharge space S at the same time.

  When the operation case 11B is moved, the protrusion 11Ba of the operation case 11B moves from the point B to the point C on the rail 11Ab of the fixed case 11A. The winding core 3 up to that position moves to a position facing the discharge space S generated between the fixed case 11A and the operation case 11B when moved to the point C. Then, the sending core 2 does not exist at the position where the sending core 2 has existed until the gear 2a remains.

  Further, as shown in FIG. 6 (a), a new delivery core 2 ′ is disposed at a position where the delivery core 2 no longer exists, and thereafter, in the first embodiment, the transfer tape in the delivery core 2 ′ is disposed. After passing the winding end of P through a predetermined conveyance path such as the transfer unit 4, the winding end is pasted, for example, on the sending core 2 that has moved to the winding core 3 side.

  Then, the operation case 11B is moved in the arrangement direction with respect to the fixed case 11A. When the operation case 11B is moved, the protrusion 11Ba of the operation case 11B moves from the point C to the point D of the rail 11Ab of the fixed case 11A, and accordingly, the previous sending core gripped by the grip rail 11Bb 2 is rotatably connected to the gear 3a of the take-up core 3, and the take-up core 3 held so far held by the holding rail 11Bc has the surface of the substrate P1 in the discharge space S and the end face behind the fixed case 11A. It will be in a state to face.

  Thereafter, as shown in FIG. 6B, the operation case 11B is moved in the forward direction with respect to the fixed case 11A. When the operation case 11B is moved, the protrusion 11Ba of the operation case 11B moves from the point D of the rail 11Ab of the fixed case 11A to the point A (use position). The sending core 2 and the new sending core 2 ′ are in the following state.

  That is, the winding core 3 moves in accordance with the movement of the operation case 11B from the point D to the point A with the surface of the base material P1 in contact with the rear end surface of the fixed case 11A in the state of FIG. As a result, it stops in the discharge space S, the engagement of the flange portion 3b with the gripping rail 11Bc is disengaged in the rearward direction, and the rearward operation of the winding core 3 on which the substrate P1 is wound by the discharge portion 11Bd A part of the surface is relatively pushed and discharged from the discharge space S toward the arrangement side surface.

  The previous delivery core 2 is disposed at the position of the take-up core 3, and is connected to the gear 3a so as to be rotatable coaxially when the operation case 11B moves from the point C to the point D. Although it does not move with the movement of the operation case 11B from the point D to the point A, the flange portion 2b is relatively engaged with the gripping rail 11Bc that has been slid from the state where the flange portion 2b has been engaged with the gripping rail 11Bb until then. It will be in the state.

  Then, the new delivery core 2 ′ is gripped rotatably by engaging the flange portion 2b ′ and the gripping rail 11Bb slid by the movement of the operation case 11B from the point D to the point A. .

  After the above, the use state shown in FIG. 1 is obtained by closing the open / close door 11Aa. At this time, the delivery core 2 ′ functions as the delivery core 2, and the previous delivery core 2 serves as the take-up core 3, thereby performing the respective functions. That is, the transfer tool 1 discards only the winding core 3 and refills only the delivery core 2 ′ around which the transfer tape P is wound.

  As described above, in the transfer tool 1 of the present invention, the delivery core 2, the winding core 3, and the (new) delivery core 2 ′ appear according to the arrangement position for explanation, all of which are one type of delivery. Core 2. That is, in the transfer tool 1 of the first form, only one core (sending core 2 ′ = sending core 2) may be newly purchased and replaced, and the discarding member is also one core (winding core 3 = Since only the delivery core 2) suffices, the number of discarded members can be reduced, and the purchase cost of replacement members can be reduced.

(Second form)
The transfer tool 1 of the second form is different from the first form in that a fixing means for fixing the winding end of the transfer tape P is provided on the delivery core 2. When the transfer tool 1 of the first form is loaded with a new delivery core 2 ′, the user winds the delivery core 2 ′ around the delivery core 2 moved to the position of the winding core 3. For example, the winding end of the mounted transfer tape P is attached to the delivery core 2 (that is, the winding core 3) after moving to the position of the winding core 3.

  Although there is no problem in using the transfer tool 1 even in the first embodiment, for example, if the above-mentioned sticking is insufficient in the operation of the user, transfer from the winding core 3 at the beginning of use after loading of the delivery core 2 ′ is performed. There may be a situation where the tape P is peeled off. Therefore, in the second embodiment, the delivery core 2 is provided with a fixing means for securely and reliably fixing the winding end of the transfer tape P.

  For example, as shown in FIG. 7, the fixing means is configured by providing a fixing portion 2 c that attaches the winding end of the transfer tape P to the delivery core 2 (the winding core 3 as the arrangement position). The fixing portion 2c is formed with, for example, a plurality of concave portions 2ca recessed in the central direction on the transfer tape P winding surface of the delivery core 2 at equal angular intervals, and an arc-shaped convex plate having convex portions that fit into the concave portions 2ca. 2cb is provided.

  As shown in FIG. 7A, the fixing portion 2c raises the convex plate 2cb of the winding core 3 (= delivery core 2) and sandwiches the winding end of the transfer tape P. 2, the convex plate 2 cb is returned again, the convex portion is fitted into the concave portion 2 ca, and the winding end of the transfer tape P is attached to the winding core 3. Accordingly, the transfer tape P can be attached more securely than by sticking by a simple operation.

(Third form)
The transfer tool 1 of the third form is different from the structure of the first form in that the placing tool 12 on which the sending core 2 ′ (= the sending core 2) is placed can be inserted into the housing 11. As shown in FIGS. 8 to 12, the mounting tool 12 is sized and shaped to be inserted into the fixed case 11 </ b> A, and has the following configuration in detail.

  The mounting tool 12 is opened, for example, so as not to contact the transfer hole 4 and the support shaft 4A when inserted into the fixed case 11A and the shaft hole 12a into which the flange portion 2b ′ of the delivery core 2 ′ is inserted, for example. Openings 12b and 12c, a lead-out portion 12d for leading out the winding end of the transfer tape P, and a removal portion 12A as a placement tool removing means formed on the rear end surface of the placement tool 12. In addition, in the vicinity of the opening 12b on the arrangement surface side of the mounting tool 12, a support column 12p on which the transfer tape P is wound in advance is provided.

  The removal portion 12A is formed with a step portion 12Aa having a height in the direction of the operation side from the portion where the shaft hole 12a and the openings 12b and 12c are formed on the operation side surface, and on the side surface where the step portion 12Aa is disposed. Is formed with a slope 12Ab that is inclined upward in the backward direction.

  When the operation case 11B moves from the point D to the point A of the rail 11Ab, the inclined surface 12Ab is placed relative to the forward movement of the front end surface because the front end surface of the operation case 11B sinks into the arrangement side. The device 12 is guided to the operation side and pushed up.

  The lead-out part 12d is connected to the placement tool 12 at the rear end of the slope 12Ab of the removal part 12A, with the pin 12da erected vertically to the arrangement side surface and the end part on the axial arrangement side of the pin 12da. It is comprised from the flexible board | plate material 12db which sticks the transfer tape P in the state which attached '.

  The mounting tool 12 places the delivery core 2 ′ at a position where the delivery core 2 no longer exists when the operation case 11B is moved to the point D of the rail 11Ab shown in FIG. 6A in the first embodiment. Used when loading. As shown in FIGS. 11 and 12, the mounting tool 12 is opened in a state in which the delivery core 2 ′ is held on the arrangement side surface, that is, in a state where the flange portion 2b ′ of the delivery core 2 ′ is gripped by the shaft hole 12a. The opening / closing door 11Aa in the state is inserted with the shaft of the delivery core 2 'facing the shaft of the gear 2a.

  When the mounting tool 12 is inserted into the fixed case 11A, the gear 2a and the delivery core 2 ′ are coaxially connected to each other so as to be rotatable, and the transfer unit 4 from the opening 12b of the mounting tool 12 extends from the opening 12c. Each of the support shafts 4A will look into each other. Then, the placing tool 12 moves the plate member 12db of the lead-out portion 12d in the state of FIG. 9A to the position of the winding core 3 as shown in FIG. The arrangement position is brought into contact with the winding peripheral surface of the winding core 3), and the transfer tape P is attached, for example.

  Then, when the operation case 11B shown in FIG. 6A in the first embodiment is located at the point D of the rail 11Ab and the mounting tool 12 is inserted into the fixed case 11A, as shown by the solid line in FIG. The operation side surface of the front end portion of the operation case 11B is located on the arrangement side of the slope 12Ab. In this state, when the operation case 11B shown in FIG. 6B in the first embodiment is moved to the point A of the rail 11Ab, as shown by a two-dot chain line in FIG. By the movement, the mounting tool 12 guided by the slope 12Ab is pushed up to the operation side, and only the mounting tool 12 is removed.

  At this time, the plate member 12db of the lead-out part 12d is peeled off leaving the transfer tape P on the winding peripheral surface of the winding core 3, and when it peels off, the placing tool 12 does not interfere with pushing up to the operation side. Furthermore, it deforms in contact with the operation case 11B. Thus, the mounting tool 12 is mounted on the delivery core 2 'and removed from the fixed case 11A.

  In this way, although the mounting tool 12 becomes a discard member after the new delivery core 2 'is installed, the installation of the delivery core 2' including the attaching operation of the transfer tape P is facilitated. Since there is no change in discarding only the core, the number of discard members can be reduced as compared with the conventional case.

  In addition, although the above description of the third form is based on the configuration of the first form, when the configuration of the second form is also assumed, that is, when the sending core 2 includes the fixed portion 2c. The lead-out portion 12d is omitted, or the lead-out portion 12d is brought into contact with the concave portion 2ca from which the convex plate 2cb is removed, and then only the lead-out portion 12d is peeled off from the concave portion 2ca and the convex plate 2cb is moved into the concave portion 2ca. An attachment method of fitting may be used.

(4th form)
The transfer tool 1 of the fourth form is based on the premise that the delivery core 2 ′ is mounted on the fixing means shown in the second form using the mounting tool 12 shown in the third form. In 4 form, it is set as the fixing part 2D and the mounting tool 13 from which the structure of the fixing | fixed part 2c of 2nd form and the mounting tool 12 of 3rd form each differed, and the sending core 2 which has this fixing | fixed part 2D, A mounting means is constituted by the mounting tool 13. Hereinafter, a description will be mainly given of a different configuration from the fixing portion 2c of the second form and the mounting tool 12 of the third form, and the same reference numerals are given to the same configuration, and the description is omitted.

  As shown in FIG. 15, the fixing portion 2 </ b> D in the delivery core 2 is different from the fixing portion 2 c of the second embodiment in the following points, as shown in FIG. 15. Here, again, the sending core 2, the winding core 3, and the sending core 2 'are renamed depending on the arrangement and the situation, but all are the sending core 2 having the same configuration.

  A notch flange portion 2Da is provided at an intermediate position in the axial direction from the flange portion 2b of the delivery core 2 toward the arrangement side direction. For example, four cutout flange portions 2Da are provided at equal angular intervals, and the outer peripheral end surface of the delivery core 2 is connected to the surface on the arrangement side. That is, the arrangement side surface of the flange portion 2b is integrated with the delivery core 2 through the small diameter portion, and the operation side surface of the notch flange portion 2Da is integrated with the small diameter portion, and the arrangement side surface is provided. Is integrated with the delivery core 2 itself. In addition, a slope 2Db having a downward slope in the arrangement side direction is formed at adjacent circumferential ends of the notched flange portions 2Da.

  On the outer peripheral end face of the delivery core 2, an insertion portion 2Dc into which a short column 13D described later is inserted is formed at a portion viewed from the gap between the notched flange portions 2Da. On the outer peripheral end face of the delivery core 2 in the insertion portion 2Dc, a slope 2Dd is formed that has a downward slope toward the outer periphery with the radial thickness center of the end face as a vertex.
