  • Patent number: 6153046
    Abstract: An adhesive tape cutting and folding apparatus generally comprising a main wheel, means for cutting the adhesive tape, means for advancing the main wheel, and means for folding a strip of adhesive tape over a working piece. The main wheel includes a plurality of radially disposed folding slots that open adjacent the periphery of the main wheel. Adhesive tape from a standard roll is spooled around the main wheel, wherein the adhesive side of the tape faces radially outwards. As the working piece is pushed into a slot, the cutting means is actuated severing a piece of tape from the supply roll. As the piece of tape is cut, the tape folding means, which is disposed within the slot, folds and applies the severed piece of tape over the working piece. As the working piece is withdrawn from the slot, the indexing means advances the main wheel to position another folding slot and fresh section of adhesive tape.
