Appliance for folding a slither to form a cylindrical slither stack

摘要

To obtain a uniform folding of a slither and to increase the folding speed, the intersection points (19', 14', 24') of the longitudinal centre axis (19) of the slither stack (3), of the axis of rotation (14) of the turntable (10) and of the vertical projection of the slither feed point (12) with the plane of contact of the slither stack with the turntable (10) are arranged in a triangle. <IMAGE>
