- the transport roller 72 rotates while periodically changing the pushing amount of the outer peripheral surface in the rotational radius direction Dr with one rotation of the transport roller 72 as one cycle.
- the holding surface 53 has a flat shape in the width direction (see FIG. 4C). 6B, at the delivery position Qout, the width direction of the holding surface 53 faces the rotation direction Dc of the rotary drum main body 42. Further, when the holding surface 53 delivers the absorbent main body 10, first, as shown in FIG. 6A, the downstream end portion 53d of the holding surface 53 in the rotational direction Dc passes through the delivery position Qout. As shown, the central portion 53e and the upstream end portion 53u sequentially pass through the delivery position Qout. However, at this time, due to the flat shape in the width direction of the holding surface 53, the positions in the rotational radius direction Dr of the respective portions of the holding surface 53 when passing the delivery position Qout are different from each other.
- the downstream end 53d (or the upstream end 53u) of the holding surface 53 has a large rotation radius Rd around the rotation axis C41 of the rotary drum main body 42, so 6B, the central portion 53e shown in FIG. 6B passes through an inner position in the rotational radius direction Dr because the rotational radius Re is small.

Then, when the position of the holding surface 53 in the rotational radius direction Dr moves inward during one rotation, the amount of extrusion of the outer peripheral surface of the transport roller 72 to the rotary drum body 42 is increased (for example, 7F), when the position of the holding surface 53 in the rotational radius direction Dr moves outward, the amount of extrusion of the outer peripheral surface of the transport roller 72 is reduced (for example, FIG. 7B and FIG. 7C). Thereby, the distance L between the holding surface 53 and the outer peripheral surface of the conveyance roller 72 is kept substantially constant.
- FIG. 7A when the central portion 53e of the holding surface 53 in the rotation direction Dc passes the delivery position Qout, the amount of extrusion of the transport roller 72 is maximized. Then, as shown in FIG. 7B, the amount of extrusion gradually decreases as the holding surface 53 moves, and as shown in FIG. 7C, after passing through the upstream end 53u of the holding surface 53, as shown in FIG. 7D. Furthermore, when the boundary portion between the holding pad 51 and the adjacent holding pad 51 passes through the delivery position Qout, the amount of extrusion is minimized.
- a signal indicating the rotation angle ⁇ is input to the servo controller 180 from an encoder (not shown) that detects the rotation angle ⁇ of the rotating drum body 42.
- a signal indicating the rotation angle ⁇ r of the transport roller 72 is also input from an encoder 174 (FIG. 8) that detects the rotation angle ⁇ r of the transport roller 72.
- the servo controller 180 causes the rotary drum main body 42 to rotate only by a rotation angle corresponding to the movement amount of one holding pad 51 (in the illustrated example, 1/5 rotation, that is, 72 °).
- the drive rotation of the servo motor 79 is controlled so that the transport roller 72 rotates once.
- the transport roller 72 is controlled to be driven to rotate at a rotation angle ⁇ r that is the number of holding pads 51 that is the rotation angle ⁇ of the rotating drum body 42 (5 times in the illustrated example).

- the angle deviation ⁇ is input to the speed command calculator 183.
- the speed command calculator 183 performs a predetermined calculation based on the angle deviation ⁇ , calculates a command value ⁇ a of angular velocity (rotational speed), and transmits the command value ⁇ a to the speed comparator 184.
- the speed comparator 184 compares the angular velocity command value ⁇ a with the actual angular velocity value ⁇ r sent from the encoder 174 of the transport roller 72, and calculates a deviation ⁇ (angular velocity deviation ⁇ ) between the two. Then, the angular velocity deviation ⁇ is transmitted to the drive current calculator 185.
- the drive current calculator 185 performs a predetermined calculation based on the angular velocity deviation ⁇ , and obtains a value of the drive current I1 that reduces the angular velocity deviation ⁇ . Then, the obtained drive current I1 is supplied to the servo motor 79, and the servo motor 79 is driven.
- a so-called winding transmission device is used in this example as the power transmission mechanism that transmits the driving rotational force of the servo motor 79 to the transport roller 72. That is, a pulley 79p is provided on the drive rotating shaft 79a of the servo motor 79, and a pulley 73p is also provided on the eccentric shaft 73 at one end in the CD direction. Further, a relay shaft 80m along the CD direction is rotatably disposed between them, and a first pulley 81 and a second pulley 82 are provided at one end of the relay shaft 80m.

- An endless timing belt 84 is also wound around both of the driving rotary shaft 79a and the eccentric shaft 73 via the relay shaft 80m so that the rotational force can be transmitted. . Therefore, the driving rotational force of the servo motor 79 is transmitted to the transport roller 72, and the transport roller 72 is driven to rotate.
- a third pulley 83 is also provided at the other end of the relay shaft 80m, and a pulley 73p is also provided at the eccentric shaft 73 at the other end in the CD direction.

Push or retract in direction Dr. Thereby, the distance L between the outer peripheral surface of the conveyance roller 72 and the holding surface 53 is kept substantially constant.
- the outer peripheral portion 72b is rotatable relative to the central portion 72a by the bearing members 74a and 74a. Therefore, even when there is a relative speed difference between the outer peripheral surface of the outer peripheral portion 72b, which is the outer peripheral surface of the transport roller 72, and the holding surface 53 of the holding pad 51, the relative speed difference is calculated between the outer peripheral portion 72b and the central portion 72a. As a result, it is possible to effectively suppress the occurrence of wrinkles or the like of the absorbent main body 10 or the continuous member 20a, 24a of the band member due to the relative speed difference. .
- the rotation radius Re of the central portion 53e is that of the downstream end portion 53d or the upstream end portion 53u. Since it is smaller than Rd and Ru, the moving speed of the central portion 53e in the rotational direction Dc is smaller than those of the end portions 53d and 53u.
- the portion of the outer peripheral surface having a large eccentricity is opposed to the central portion 53e of the holding surface 53 because of the maximum extrusion amount at this time. Thereby, the peripheral speed of the said outer peripheral surface part is high.
- the outer peripheral portion 72b is configured to be rotatable relative to the central portion 72a as described above, the outer peripheral portion 72b is held via the belt member continuous bodies 20a and 24a and the absorbent main body 10. Abutting on the surface 53, a rotational force is obtained from the contact, and the driven surface 53 is rotated in accordance with the movement of the holding surface 53. Thus, the relative speed difference between the outer peripheral surface of the transport roller 72 and the holding surface 53 is effectively suppressed.
- the outer shape of the outer peripheral portion 72 b may be a shape corresponding to the surface shape of the holding surface 53 of the holding pad 51.
- the surface shape of the holding surface 53 at the delivery position Qout is such that the central portion 53a in the CD direction has a rotation radius as compared with both end portions 53b and 53c located on both sides thereof. It has a shape protruding outward in the direction Dr (direction parallel to the turning axis C51).
- the outer shape of the outer peripheral portion 72b is a drum shape in which the central portion in the CD direction is dented from both ends. And if it does in this way, the continuous body 20a and 24a of a strip member can be reliably pressed against the absorptive main body 10 by the outer peripheral part 72b and the holding surface 53, and the improvement of sticking property can be aimed at.
- the outer peripheral portion 72b is divided into a plurality of cylindrical members 72b2, 72b1, 72b2 in the CD direction, and the cylindrical members 72b2, 72b1, 72b2 are It is good to be rotatably supported by center part 72a via bearing member 74b, 74b ..., respectively.
- the outer peripheral portion 72b is composed of three cylindrical members: a cylindrical member 72b1 for the central portion in the CD direction and cylindrical members 72b2 and 72b2 for the end portions in the CD direction.
- each cylinder member 72b2, 72b1, 72b2 will be driven and rotated mutually independently. Therefore, when the outer diameter is different depending on the position in the CD direction like the above-described drum-shaped outer peripheral portion 72b, the problem of the relative speed difference that can occur between the parts having different outer diameters is reduced. Can do.
- the surface layer portion 72s including the outer peripheral surface of the conveying roller 72 is formed of an elastic member that is elastically deformed flexibly.
- the surface layer portion 72s of the transport roller 72 is formed of an elastic member.
- the material of the elastic member include sponge-like urethane rubber.
