  • Patent number: 10420681
    Abstract: A carrying device includes: a carrying section having a receiving surface to be in contact with a first sheet material that is continuous in a carrying direction, wherein one edge of the first sheet material is wave-shaped, the carrying section defining an inclined slit portion, wherein the inclined slit portion defines an opening on the receiving surface, wherein the inclined slit portion extends in an inclined direction so as to be displaced from a proximal side toward a distal side of a protruding portion while extending downstream in the direction of carrying the first sheet material, and wherein the inclined slit portion sucks the protruding portion along the wave-shaped edge; and a box defining a suction space that keeps the inclined slit portion under a negative pressure so that the protruding portion is pulled into the inclined slit portion by suction.

  • Patent number: 10342710
    Abstract: A method including: a step of carrying first and second continuous webs in a carrying direction; a step of folding the continuous webs in two; a first attachment step, in which portions of first edges, which extend in the carrying direction of the continuous webs and which are to be leg holes of a worn article, are attached together intermittently in the carrying direction; a step of straightening, in a width direction, creases on one of the continuous web after the first attachment step; and a second attachment step, in which the continuous webs are attached together at least at portions along second edges opposite to the first edges, with the creases being straightened.
