Abstract
An auto reel loader includes a plate onto which a truck is moved and a used-up paper roll holder. The used-up paper roll holder takes a used-up paper roll off a paper roll reel of a rotary press and transfers the used-up roll paper to the truck. The used-up paper roll holder has a tape holding roller which can be moved between an operating position where the tape holding roller is pressed against the circumferential outer surface of the used-up paper roll and a non-operating position where the paper holding roller is positioned apart from the circumferential outer surface of the used-up paper roll, an unrollable adhesive tape whose leading end juxtaposes the tape holding roller and can be stuck to the circumferential outer surface of the used-up paper roll by pressing the tape holding roller against the circumferential outer surface of the used-up paper roll, and a cutter which, when the tape holding roller has been retracted to a non-operating position, can cut off a part of the adhesive tape extending from the tape holding roller to the circumferential outer surface of the used-up paper roll. When the used-up paper roll is rotated by the paper roll reel, with the tape holding roller taking the operating position, the adhesive tape is wound around the circumferential outer surface of the used-up paper roll, thereby fastening the remaining strip of paper on the used-up paper roll. Thereafter, the adhesive tape is cut off by a cutter and is prepared for the next round of the fastening operation.
