Abstract
A dispenser housing for dispensing a multi-layer tape transfer tape used in a paper web turn-up operation, the transfer tape being the combination of a tape substrate coated on one side with a web grabbing adhesive and on the other side with a mounting adhesive and an affixed cord or cordlike feature, and a release liner having a release liner substrate fully coated on a first side with a release layer and zone-coated on a second side with a release layer, the transfer tape being wound onto a single spool with the release liner facing inward and the mounting side adhesive facing outward, such that buckling is precluded when the transfer tape is unwound from the spool.
Claims20
A combination of a transfer tape cartridge dispenser and a paper web transfer tape with a cord;
- said dispenser comprising a transfer tape spool within a housing, said transfer tape being wound onto said transfer tape spool, said housing having a slot adapted such that said transfer tape passes through said slot as it is unwound;
- said transfer tape adapted to sever and secure a paper web from a first web spool onto an empty web spool in a web turn-up operation, said transfer tape comprising a tape substrate coated on one side with a web grabbing adhesive and on the other side with a mounting adhesive, and a release liner having a release liner substrate fully coated on a first side with a release layer and zone-coated on a second side with a release layer, said release layer being of a material that prevents adhesion of the adhesive to the release liner substrate, and a cord affixed to the tape substrate;
- said zone-coated release layer defining a longitudinally extending uncoated joining region on said release liner substrate, whereby said web grabbing adhesive adheres to the said uncoated joining region of said release liner substrate such that said zone-coated release layer defines a cover flap not adhered to said web grabbing adhesive;
- said transfer tape and the cord being wound onto said transfer tape spool with said release liner facing inward and said mounting side adhesive facing outward, such that said release layer fully coated on said first side of said release liner substrate prevents adhesion of said mounting side adhesive to said release liner substrate;
- said dispenser further comprising a wiper mounted on said housing adjacent said slot, said wiper adapted to apply pressure to said transfer tape when said transfer tape is applied to said empty paper web spool.
A transfer tape for performing a paper web turn-up operation, the transfer tape comprising:
- a tape substrate coated on one side with a web grabbing adhesive and on the other side with a mounting adhesive;
- a release liner having a release liner substrate fully coated on a first side with a first release layer and zone-coated on a second side with a second release layer, said first release layer and second release layer being of a material that prevents adhesion of the adhesive to the release liner substrate;
- a cord affixed to the tape substrate;
- said zone-coated release layer defining a longitudinally extending uncoated joining region on said release liner substrate, whereby said web grabbing adhesive adheres to the said uncoated joining region of said release liner substrate such that said zone-coated release layer defines a cover flap not adhered to said web grabbing adhesive;
- and
- said cord defining an elevated surface profile of the transfer tape proximate to the cord when the transfer tape is adhered to a surface.
