Edge tape cassette for edge tapes

Abstract

An edge tape cassette for receiving edge tapes comprising a cassette housing, in which a winding core is arranged, which fixedly holds an edge tape that is existent as a container in the form of a wound-up roll. Furthermore, the edge tape cassette additionally has a receiving element, which is rotatable mounted in the edge tape cassette, and to which the winding core is attached, in particular in a detachable manner.

Description

CROSS REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATIONS[0001]This patent application is the US National Phase of and claims priority on and the benefit of International Application No. PCT / EP2018 / 078541 having an international filing date of 18 Oct. 2018, which claims priority on and the benefit of German Patent Application No. 102017125039.5 having a filing date of 26 Oct. 2017.BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTIONTechnical Field[0002]The invention relates to an edge tape cassette for edge tapes.Prior Art[0003]When manufacturing plate-shaped workpieces, in particular from wood or wood substitute materials, such as fiber boards, chipboard, HDF boards, MDF boards, laminates or the like, it is usually the case that the narrow sides thereof are provided with strip-shaped lamination materials, so-called edge tapes, when processing the plate-shaped workpieces. Since such plate-shaped workpieces are used in particular in regions in which the visual appearance plays a major role, such as especially in the construct...

AI Technical Summary

Benefits of technology

The invention is a cassette for holding edge tape and includes a mechanism for easily attaching the edge tape to a receiving element on a device. The receiving element can also rotate to wind or unwind the edge tape. The cassette also has a clamping apparatus to prevent the edge tape from sliding back into the cassette and can be canceled to allow for further operation or retraction of the edge tape. The technical effects of this invention include ease of use, versatility, and improved efficiency in edge tape processing.

Problems solved by technology

In practice, the spiral windings represent a not inconsiderable problem with regard to their handling.

If these are unpacked from the boxes or the fixing tapes, which may hold the winding together, are loosened, it regularly happens that the edge tapes unwind.

In practice, this results in a not inconsiderable amount of personnel, in the worst case there is even an interruption in operation if an accidentally unwound edge tape cannot be replaced or rewound quickly enough with one that is still unwound.

A disadvantage of the previously known systems is that, on the one hand, they are comparatively complex and therefore expensive.

On the other hand, the problem of loading is only shifted, i.e. the handling problems no longer occur directly at the loading apparatus, but for example when filling the corresponding cassettes.
