A master processing apparatus (10) for use with a pair of removable feed rolls (18, 20) carrying a supply of stock material includes a frame (12) and a master processing assembly (30) operable to cause adhesive bonding between the stock materials and a master (22). The apparatus includes a cutting assembly (70) and a movable feed tray (44). A master engaging structure engages the master (22) as it is being processed.
摘要:
A master processing system includes a frame and a cartridge assembly (26) having a cartridge body (46) and first and second feed rolls (12, 14) rotatably mounted to the cartridge body. The first and second feed rolls carry first and second stock materials with at least one of the stock materials (16, 18) having a layer of adhesive disposed thereon. The cartridge body is removably mounted to the frame. A master processing assembly (28) is constructed and arranged such that a master can be inserted into the processing assembly together with the stock materials (16, 18) unwound from their feed rolls and disposed on opposing sides of the master. The processing assembly (28) performs a master processing operation, wherein the processing assembly causes adhesive bonding between the master and the stock materials being fed therein. An ejector mechanism (30) is constructed and arranged to eject the cartridge assembly (26) in an outward direction with respect to the frame.
摘要:
A method of converting a master processing apparatus (10) for performing a master processing operation wherein adhesive bonding is affected between a pair of stock materials (20,22) and a master received therebetween from a first configuration configured for use with a pair of individual removable feed rolls to a second configuration configured for use with a cartridge including a cartridge body and a pair of feed rolls rotatably mounted on the cartridge body. The apparatus in at least its first configuration includes a frame (24) and a master processing assembly (26). The method includes mounting a cartridge support assembly (28) to the frame, the cartridge (12) in an operative position wherein the stock materials (20,22) on the feed rolls (16,18) of the cartridge (12) can be fed into the master processing assembly (26) for performance of the master processing operation.
摘要:
The present invention provides an adhesive transfer device (100) comprising a frame (60) and first and second cooperating structures (20,22) each having a substrate engaging surface, the first cooperating structure being a nip roller (22) rotatably mounted to the frame. The selected substrate (40) and the adhesive carrying substrate (14) can be advanced between the cooperating structures with the substrate engaging surfaces thereof cooperating to apply pressure to the substrates. This causes the first portion of the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer to adhere to the selected substrate (40) and the second portion of the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer to adhere to a pick-up portion of the substrate engaging surface of the nip roller (22). The pick-up portion of the substrate engaging surface of the nip roller (22) has a greater affinity for adhesive bonding than the surface of the adhesive carrying substrate (14) on which the layer is coated so that as the substrates are discharged from between the cooperating structures, the second portion of the adhesive layer remains adhered to the pick-up portion of the nip roller (22) rather than to the adhesive carrying substrate (14). An adhesive pick-up device (30) has an adhesive pick-up surface (32) with a greater affinity for adhesive bonding than the pick-up portion of the substrate engaging surface of the nip roller (22). The adhesive pick-up surface (32) engaging the substrate engaging surface of the nip roller (22) such that, as the nip roller rotates during the adhesive transfer operation, (a) the pick-up portion of the nip roller having the second portion of the adhesive layer adhered thereto engages the adhesive pick-up surface (32) of the pick-up device to adhere to the pick-up surface and (b) the adhesive pick-up device continually advances the adhesive pick-up surface so that the portions of the adhesive pick-up surface with the second portion of the adhesive layer adhered thereto is moved away as the nip roller (22) continues to rotate and is replaced by a portion of the adhesive pick-up surface that is devoid of adhesive.
