  • Patent number: 9016611
    Abstract: To provide a medium storing and advancing apparatus for inhibiting rotation of a drum when tapes are completely rewound from the drum. The apparatus includes reels supplying and winding up the tapes, a drum winding up the tapes supplied from the reels or rewinding wound-up tapes to supply the tapes to the reels, and an inhibiting mechanism inhibiting further rotation of the drum in a direction of rewinding the tapes when the drum completely rewinds the tapes, whereby the inhibiting mechanism inhibits the rotation of the drum.

  • Patent number: 8360223
    Abstract: A medium storing and advancing apparatus is provided which prevents, when a medium sandwiched between two tapes is wound on a drum to be stored, that the medium could not be wound due to the thickness of the tapes wound previously on the drum. The medium storing and advancing apparatus includes reels which supply and wind up the tapes, and a drum which winds up the tapes, wherein the drum is provided with a drum groove portion over the circumferentially entire periphery substantially in a middle way of the outer peripheral surface of the drum so that the tapes are wound in the drum groove portion.
