On décrit un procédé et un appareil servant à produire une bande d'un matériau de fermeture souple devant être fixée à un élément d'emballage. La bande de matériau souple se compose d'une multiplicité de parties en forme de bande s'engageant les unes dans les autres. Le procédé consiste à utiliser un ruban de matériau de fermeture souple, sur la largeur transversale duquel se trouve une multiplicité d'éléments s'engageant les uns dans les autres et qui s'étendent à partir du ruban. Puis, le ruban est divisé sur sa longueur longitudinale en une multiplicité de parties en forme de bandes, au moins deux de ces parties comprenant un élément d'engagement qui s'en étend. Enfin, les parties en forme de bandes et comprenant un élément d'engagement sont unies en contact les unes avec les autres, l'élément d'engagement de chacune des bandes s'adaptant avec celui de l'autre bande. Le procédé s'effectue de manière continue et en ligne, avec un équipement servant à fixer le matériau de fermeture souple à un élément d'emballage. L'étape de séparation s'effectue lorsqu'on déchire le ruban de fermeture souple fourni sur sa longueur longitudinale.
摘要:
A fastening tab for a disposable diaper having a free end (3) having a distal half (4) with a maximum width x^_-^_y^_ and a proximal half (5) minimum width y^_, where x^_ is the width of the manufacturer's end (2). The tape provides a maximum peel force at the distal end (9, 9') of the attached fastening tab providing a more secure closure and is capable of being cut from a stock roll in a repeating pattern without any waste.

A continuous tape supply apparatus is provided in accordance with the present invention for supplying tape at a substantially consistent tension to a tape applicator machine having an indexing demand, such as a box sealing and taping machine. In general, the continuous tape supply apparatus includes plural tape sources, such as in roll form, from which tape can be supplied to the tape applicator machine, a splicing station for splicing the tape from at least one of the tape sources to another of the tape sources, a means for causing the splice and thus the changeover of tape from one source to another, and a tension control means for providing the tape from the continuous tape supply apparatus at a substantially consistent tension under an indexing demand. Preferably, the splicing mechanism also splices tape in the reverse order from the other tape source station back to the first tape source stations. The tension control means is preferably provided by a tape drive station, a first dancer arm providing a variable loop forming means between each of the tape supply sources and the splicing station, and a second dancer arm positioned operatively after the tape drive station which is located operatively after the splicing station. The first dancer arm is further preferably used to control a braking mechanism which together eliminate roll inertia effects to the splicing station. The second dancer arm is also advantageously used to control the speed of the motor drive of the tape drive station.

A process and apparatus is described for providing a strip of flexible closure material to be affixed to a receptacle. The strip of flexible closure material comprises a combination of a plurality of interengaging strip portions in their interengaged state. The process includes the step of supplying a tape of flexible closure material having a transverse width with a plurality of interengaging elements across the transverse width that extend from the tape. Then, the tape is separated along its longitudinal length into a plurality of strip portions with at least two of the strip portions having an interengaging element extending therefrom. Lastly, the strip portions having an interengaging element are brought into contact with one another while mating the interengaging element of each of the strip portions brought together with that of the other. The process takes place continuously in line with equipment for affixing the flexible closure material to a receptacle. The separating step is accomplished by tearing the supplied flexible closure tape along its longitudinal length.
