  • Patent number: 5938889
    Abstract: A tape feeding apparatus capable of feeding a tape laminate made by superposing a first tape having a first chemical material layer on one side and a second tape having a second chemical material layer on one side reacting with the first chemical material with the layers in contact with each other. When the chemical reaction occurs between them, the second chemical material layer exhibits an indication which is visually recognized. Rollers press the first tape drawn out from a first reel and the second tape drawn out from a second reel so that the first and second chemical material layers come in mutual contact, and form the tape laminate.

  • Patent number: 5722319
    Abstract: The present invention is directed to an apparatus which is suited for use by women, children and the like who have limited physical strength to continuously stamp embossed patterns with clear outlines with the same spacing. A press roller is provided with an embossed pattern stamping die on a circular external circumferential surface, with its rotating shaft supported by bearings at a specific position, and is caused to perform axial rotation by a rotating drive force applied from the outside. A receptacle portion faces opposite the external circumferential surface of the press roller, with its opposing surface constituted as a flat surface or a convex surface to form a gap between itself and the press roller where a sheet-like object to be stamped is to be inserted.
