  • Patent number: 10017346
    Abstract: An apparatus and method for loading a spool, including a core and a web of material, on a loading apparatus and unwinding the web material from the core of the spool. The loading apparatus may include a mandrel adapted to be received by the core. The mandrel may include a tubular side wall having an outer circumferential surface, an inner circumferential surface, and an aperture. A gripping member may be telescopically received within the aperture. The gripping member may be configured to move radially outward to press against the core. Likewise, the gripping member may be configured to move radially inward to release the core. The loading apparatus may be configured to associate with an unwind apparatus. The unwind apparatus allows the loading apparatus to rotate about a central longitudinal axis. As the unwind apparatus rotates, the web of material may be unwound from the core of the spool.

  • Publication number: 20140276521
    Abstract: An absorbent article comprising a backsheet, comprising a graphic and the registration mark are located on opposite surfaces to each other. The backsheet extends in a first direction and in a second direction perpendicular to the first direction. The backsheet has a first surface, a second surface opposing to the first surface, a first edge and a second edge each extending substantially in the first direction, and a third edge and a fourth edge each extending substantially in the second direction. The backsheet is provided with a graphic and a registration mark for adjusting the graphic to a predetermined position in the absorbent article. The registration mark is detected when the absorbent article is conveyed in the first direction in the manufacturing process. The graphic is provided on the first surface. The graphic has a first direction component and a second direction component. The second direction component extends substantially continuously from the first edge to the second edge.
