  • Publication number: 20020074435
    Abstract: The machine comprises a front door, a roll cover having a main roll cover and a feed roll cover, a first fulcrum axis between the main and feed roll covers, and a second fulcrum axis between the feed roll cover and a frame. The front door has a hinge at the upper portion so that it is kept at a self-supporting state when opened. The main roll cover is foldable on the feed roll cover about the first fulcrum axis. The feed roll cover is swung upwardly about the second fulcrum axis and is finally kept at the self-supporting state with the main roll cover folded on the feed roll cover. Where the front door and the roll cover are kept in their self-supporting states, since a pair of rolls and a stock feeder are fully exposed, the remaining stock accumulated in the machine can be removed easily.
