<p>A method and an apparatus are provided for aligning a belt-like member, wherein a belt-like member (15b) prepared by cutting a raw material (15) of the belt-like member on a conveyor (12) at two locations with inclined cuts, is conveyed by the conveyor, wrapped around a cylindrical drum (1) and stuck to the drum. The inclination angle of the line of cut at the leading end of the belt-like member is measured at the time of cutting, the inclination angle of the line of cut at the trailing end is measured at the time of cutting, and by comparing the inclination of the cut line at the trailing end with the inclination angle at the leading end, an amount of correction for the inclination angle is calculated. After cutting at the trailing end, the trailing end portion is attracted and held by an attracting device (120), and by rotating this attracting device on the basis of the aforementioned amount of correction for the inclination angle, the inclination angle of the line of cut at the trailing end is corrected so as to coincide with the inclination angle of the cut line at the leading end. While maintaining this corrected condition, the belt-like member (15b) is wrapped around the cylindrical drum (1) for sticking the ends together.</p> |
