Two carrier tapes are automatically connected to each other, and the carrier tape in which splicing has been completed is accurately taken out from the inside of a device. For this reason, a lifting-up device 120 which lifts up first and second carrier tapes T1 and T2 which are bonded to each other by a splicing tape 30, and peels off the splicing tape from a protective tape, is provided. The lifting-up device preferably includes one pair of hooks 123 and 124 which lift up the carrier tapes on both sides of the splicing tape, and inclined receiving portions 123a and 124a which lift up the carrier tape from one end side in a width direction are formed in the hooks.
