Abstract: A nonaqueous electrolyte secondary battery separator film transfer device is provided which realizes a foreign object removing technique that is less likely to cause defects in a separator. The device includes a magnet bar which is arranged in a transfer path and generates a magnetic field for removing, from a separator film being transferred, a magnetic substance adhering to a first surface of the separator film; and an air cylinder which allows a distance to the magnet bar from the first surface of the separator film to be variable.

Abstract: To provide (i) a method for producing an assembly capable of protecting a film from external force during, for example, transport and (ii) such an assembly, a method for producing an assembly includes a step of inserting a pillar-shaped core member through a plurality of separator rolls and a buffer member(s) made of a flexibility material and provided between separator rolls such that the separator rolls and the buffer member(s) are arranged alternately.

Abstract: The present invention achieves a separator core that is easy to clean and that will have no or few remaining foreign substances and a separator roll obtained by winding a separator around the separator core. Provided is a separator core around which a separator is wound or is to be wound, in which at least one of (i) a connection between a surface of a support part and the inner peripheral surface of the outer cylindrical part and (ii) a connection between the surface of the support part and the outer peripheral surface of the inner cylindrical part is made smoothly by a curved face.

Abstract: The present invention efficiently avoids distortion at an edge and achieves a separator core which has strength. The present invention achieves: a separator core in which an outer cylindrical part has a linearly inclined face at an edge of an outer peripheral surface thereof; and a separator roll including the separator core and a separator for a nonaqueous electrolyte secondary battery wound around the separator core. The present invention provides a method of producing the separator roll.

Abstract: Provided is a protector which allows (i) a separator roll to be protected from a shake and (ii) an assembly to be easily put in and taken out from a box. The protector includes: a base part having (i) a first surface which is a main surface and (ii) a second surface; a support part provided on the first surface of the base part, the support part being for supporting a core member at one of ends of the core member; and at least one leg part provided on the second surface of the base part, a direction in which the at least one leg part extends being not parallel to the second surface of the base part.
