Abstract
A device for installing an elastic member including a conveying line for continuously conveying sheets to be mounted, a feeding device for continuously feeding elastic members, and a guide for guiding the elastic members fed from the feeding device, to installation positions on the raw materials to be mounted on the conveying line. The guide has an upper section and a lower section detachably attached to the upper section. A guide path whose surrounding is closed is formed between the upper section and the lower section. The elastic members are guided to the installation positions through the guide path.
Claims6
A device for mounting an elastic member in an absorptive article, comprising:
- a conveying line for continuously conveying a raw material to be mounted;
- a feeding device for continuously feeding the elastic member;
- and
- a guide for guiding the elastic member fed from the feeding device to a mounting position on the raw material to be mounted on the conveying line,
- wherein:
- the guide is configured to reciprocate in a cross direction perpendicular to a conveying direction of said conveying line to apply the elastic material;
- the guide has a first part and a second part detachably attached to the first part, a guide path having a closed circumference is formed between the first part and the second part so that the elastic member can be guided to the mounting position through the guide path;
- a joint of the first part and the second part exposed to an interior surface of the guide path is not located in both sides of the interior surface of the guide path in the cross direction;
- the guide path is a circular hole extending along a machine direction, and
- an entire joint of the first part and the second part exposed to an interior surface of the guide path is not located within angle ranges of ±45 degrees with respect to the cross direction of angle ranges around a center of the guide path.
