Publication number: 20220380158Abstract: Methods and apparatus to form elevated profiles in mounted turn-up transfer tapes for paper processing. In some embodiments, the transfer tape may be a combination of a tape substrate coated on one side with a web grabbing adhesive and on the other side with a mounting adhesive and an affixed cord or cordlike feature, and a release liner having a release liner substrate fully coated on a first side with a release layer and zone-coated on a second side with a release layer. In some embodiments an elevated profile, similar to that resulting from the incorporated cord or cordlike feature, may be formed during the application of the transfer tape with specialized apparatus.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 28, 2022Publication date: December 1, 2022Applicant: Papeltec Overseas, Inc.Inventors: Craig Austin, Peter Rodriguez, Jason Rodriguez

Patent number: 11459201Abstract: An improved paper band delivery assembly for reliable high speed delivery of a turn-up paper band across a moving web of paper being wound onto a spool. The turn-up paper band is made ready for a turn up procedure by coiling a predetermined length of paper band suitable for a particular machine and retaining the coiled paper band in a reservoir pending deployment across a spool for a turn up procedure. The paper band may be coiled via manual operation or via automated operation. Coiling apparatus may be modularly replaced on a paper making machine. The coiled paper band may be supported within the reservoir on rollers, pins, or other items conducive to fast and reliable uncoiling.Type: GrantFiled: August 20, 2021Date of Patent: October 4, 2022Assignee: Sandar Industries, Inc.Inventors: Peter A.

Publication number: 20220204296Abstract: An apparatus for dispensing an adhesive with paper covers to be used in a paper web turn-up operation. The resulting adhesive and paper cover construct is used in effecting the attachment of a paper web to an approaching spool. In some examples, the paper cover of the deposited adhesive may be affixed on two sides surrounding the deposited adhesive, in other examples a single attachment may be used. In some examples, the paper cover may be perforated to facilitate rupture of the paper and flow of adhesive. In some examples, perforations may enable the movement of adhesive through the paper.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 27, 2021Publication date: June 30, 2022Inventors: Peter Rodriguez, Jason Rodriguez, Craig Austin
