<p>A lockup device (146) for securing cutting mats (114) to a rotary anvil (100 ) comprises a base portion (122), one sidewall (132), and a wedge portion (134 ), and is adapted to be inserted into the channel (110) of the rotary anvil suc h that the sidewall (132) of the lockup device is adjacent a wall of the chann el (110). A cutting mat (114) having opposing first and second flanged ends (11 6, 118) is wrapped around the rotary anvil (100). The first flange (116) is compressed between the locking wedge (134) and the sidewall (132) of the lockup device. The second flange (118) is compressed between the locking wed ge (134) and a channel wall (168). As such, the locking wedge (134) and cutting mat (114) are frictionally secured to the rotary anvil (100). Further, the cutting mat (114) may be quickly repositioned by releasing the second flange (118) from the channel (110). When the cutting mat (114) is unwrapped from t he rotary anvil (100), the lockup device (146) remains secured to the first flange (116), allowing for quick repositioning.</p> |
