Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 8
Claim 1
Independent Claim
81 words
A method in wrapping cylindrical article in a wrapping station, the article (1) being rotated about its axis and a stretch film (14) wound round the article, substantially in a plane containing the axis of the article, characterized by a web-like wrapping material (24) being placed against the cylindrical surface of the article (1) for rolling out against the article by the rotation thereof, and by the stretch film (14) being wound over the material web (24) on the article (1).
Claim 2
Independent Claim
81 words
A method in wrapping cylindrical article in a wrapping station, the article (1) being rotated about its axis and a stretch film (14) wound round the article, substantially in a plane containing the axis of the article, characterized by a web-like wrapping material (24) being placed against the cylindrical surface of the article (1) for rolling out against the article by the rotation thereof, and by the stretch film (14) being wound over the material web (24) on the article (1).
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
92 words
Method as claimed in claim 1, characterized in that the stretch film (14) is smooth on one side and sticky on the other and is drawn out from a supply (4), in that winding the stretch film is interrupted when the supply is in front of one end surface of the article (1), while the rotation of the article is continued a half turn so that the stretch film (14) is laterally reversed in relation to the article (1) and that winding the film is subsequently continued in the opposite winding direction.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
50 words
Method as claimed in claim 1 or 2, characterized in that the material web (24) is delivered from a supply (25) displaceable parallel to the axis of the article (1) so that the winding pitch of the material web (24) on the article (1) may be given a desired pitch.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
89 words
Apparatus for wrapping a cylindrical article (1) including means (2,3) for rotating the article (1) about its axis and means (4-7) for winding stretch film (14) about the article substantially in a plane containing the axis of the article (1), characterized by means (30-33) for carrying a supply (25) of a material web (24) in the vicinity of the surface of the article carried by the rotating means (2,3), and means (35,27,28) for applying the end of the material web (24) on the curved surface of the article (1).
Claim 6
Dependent Claim
89 words
Apparatus for wrapping a cylindrical article (1) including means (2,3) for rotating the article (1) about its axis and means (4-7) for winding stretch film (14) about the article substantially in a plane containing the axis of the article (1), characterized by means (30-33) for carrying a supply (25) of a material web (24) in the vicinity of the surface of the article carried by the rotating means (2,3), and means (35,27,28) for applying the end of the material web (24) on the curved surface of the article (1).
Claim 7
Dependent Claim
70 words
Apparatus as claimed in claim 4, characterized in that the winding means (4-7) is adapted for remaining stationary in a position opposite one end surface of the article (1) while the rotating means (2,3) rotates the article a half turn for allowing lateral reversal of the stretch film relative the article and that the winding means is adapted to wind the film in the opposite winding direction after said reversal.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim
34 words
Apparatus as claimed in claim 4 or 5, characterized in that the means (30-33) for carrying the material web supply (25) and the applying means (35,27,28) are adapted displaceable along the rotating means (2,3).
