Abstract
A cutting device for a continuous paper web (4), said web being advanced from a paper web supply (8) by the aid of at least one advancing means (11, 14, 15) to a feed-out location (17) where the cutting may take place, a deflector (16) being provided downstream of said advancing means (11, 14, 15) and changing the direction of movement of said web (4), so that the web is advanced toward the feed-out location (17). A stationary knife (18) is provided downstream of said deflector (16), the edge of said knife (18) being arranged so as to face away from said feed-out location (17) and toward said deflector (16) and the edge of said knife forming an acute angle with said deflector means (16). Said deflector is a sheet shaped to be bendable toward the base of said knife, the edge of said knife (18) not contacting and cutting said paper web until the free end (4') of the web is pulled, e.g. by hand (19), in a direction forming an angle with said deflector (16) and, thus, bending it. The edge of the knife may have an optional shape.
