REWINDING AND UNWINDING OF A RUBBER STRIP AND A LINER CARRYING THE RUBBER STRIP

摘要

The invention is directed to a winding device (100) for a rubber strip dispensing installation (10). The device (100) includes a frame (102); a winding reel (104) mounted for rotation and translation; an elongated swing arm (108) with an attachment end (108a) being pivotably connected to the frame and an opposite application end (108b); and a pivoting head (110) disposed at the application end of the swing arm that contacts a product reel (200) when the swing arm is in an application position, the head having an upper roller (110a) and a lower roller (110b) rotatably mounted relative to an applicator (110c) that pivots about an axis of rotation so that the head (110) pivots between an attachment position and a retrieval position.
