[0028] In the operation of this invention, the film is cleaned by the cleaning mechanism and then enters the inspection mechanism, which inspects the film for defects. The winding shaft 6 at the winding station rotates under the drive of a rotary motor to wind up the finished film. After winding is completed, the rotary motor stops, the shifting cylinder drives the auxiliary gear 64 to move upwards, disengaging it, and the moving bracket 3 moves to the left. Then, the turntable 5 rotates 90 degrees, rotating the finished film roll on the lower side to the loading station. The pushing cylinder 81 pushes the paper tube onto the finished film roll, and the inflation cylinder inserts the inflation nozzle. In the inflation / deflation nozzle, the finished roll at this station is inflated, the paper tube is fixed, and then the turntable continues to rotate 90 degrees, rotating the finished roll with the paper tube installed to the winding station. The auxiliary gear re-engages with the rotating gear, and then drives the cutting mechanism to cut the film. The rotary motor at the winding station drives the finished roll to rotate and begin winding. The rotary motor at the unloading station drives the winding shaft to rotate and wind up the excess film. After winding is completed, the unloading scraper 73 pushes the finished film roll out from the discharge chute 34 and slides out from the unloading track to complete the unloading.
[0029] When the inspection agency finds defects, turntable 5 rotates 90 degrees to rotate the recycling roll to the winding station. Then, the film is cut, and the recycling roll winds up the defective film. The feeding station feeds the film. After the defective part of the film is wound up, the turntable rotates 90 degrees again to rotate the new winding roll to the winding station for winding. The half-wound film roll exits from the discharge chute on the lower side and enters the recycling track.
