ATTITUDE CHANGING DEVICE FOR UNMANNED CARRIER

摘要

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To change the attitude of an unmanned carrier mounted on an auto-reel loader in order to make it in parallel with the support shaft of a paper roll supporting device.;SOLUTION: This attitude changing device 1 of an unmanned carrier 3 loaded with a paper roll P mounted on an auto-reel loader 2 for supplying the paper roll P on the unmanned carrier 3 to a paper roll supporting device 4 is provided with a pair of fixing members 28 arranged at the both side positions of the unmanned carrier 3 on the auto-reel loader 2, a pair of movable members 29 formed at the both fixing members 28 so as to be movable back and forth to the unmanned carrier 3 side for pushing the unmanned carrier 3 from the both sides, and a driving means 40 for driving the both movable members 29 to move back and forth to the unmanned carrier 3 side. In this case, the both movable members 29 are constituted so as to be movable back and forth across a standby position where the intrusion of the unmanned carrier 3 to the auto-reel loader 2 is not interrupted and an attitude changing position where the attitude of the unmanned carrier 3 is corrected by pushing the unmanned carrier 3 so that an axial line ϕ of the paper roll P on the unmanned carrier 3 can be made in parallel with a supporting shaft 5 of the paper roll supporting device 4.;COPYRIGHT: (C)2002,JPO
