Abstract
Apparatus to progressively spiral wrap a sheet about a longitudinally axially elongated generally cylindrical object comprises: (a) a frame including a beam member extending in the general direction of said object axis, and at a higher elevation than said axis, (b) a head carried by the beam for displacement therealong, (c) support structure carried by the head to support a sheet roll to rotate about another axis angled from horizontal and to directionally feed the sheet toward and into parallel and close tangency to the object, in a skew feed direction relative to the object axis, whereby as the object is rotated about its axis and said head is displaced along the frame member the sheet unwinds from the sheet roll and becomes progressively spirally wrapped about the object.
