Rolling assembly for packaging web material in a roll
A rolling assembly for packaging web material in a roll has been granted a patent (Publication Number: US11897713B2). The assembly includes a base member with a concave arcuate feed surface, a first intermediate member with an arcuate pressure surface, and a top member with a concave pressure surface. Together, they form an iris with a feed space that can adjust between different cross dimensions to accommodate the increasing size of the roll. The assembly is designed to receive web material and direct it upwardly to form a roll within the feed space, with the pressure surfaces applying pressure on the roll as it expands.
The system for packaging web material in a roll includes a feed assembly for carrying the web material and a rolling assembly to receive it. The rolling assembly, similar to the previously mentioned assembly, consists of a base member, a first intermediate member, and a top member forming an iris with a feed space. The system also incorporates a method for packaging web material in a roll, involving delivering a stream of web material to the assembly, which then forms a roll within the feed space. The method includes the adjustment of the iris between different conditions to accommodate the increasing size of the roll, with the pressure surfaces applying pressure as needed. This patented system and method are particularly useful for packaging materials like plastic bags in a shingled arrangement efficiently and effectively.
