Abstract

The present disclosure is directed to a core-roll that contains areas of anti-slip material and methods of making the core-roll. The core-roll has one or more anti-slip zones to allow a continuous paper web to be wound around the core without the need for additional physical restraint to keep the paper from shifting laterally along the core. In another embodiment, the disclosure describes a parent roll having an anti-slip core-roll that does not interfere with other operations that occur during converting.

First claim

What is claimed is:

1. A cylinder that forms a core-roll for holding a continuous paper web having a first end and a second end, the core-roll minimizing lateral movement of that paper web during its conversion to end products, comprising:
a roll cylinder of one or more metals and/or hard polymers, having a surface, a first edge and a second edge,
the surface of the roll cylinder comprising at least two zones that have a static coefficient of friction greater than the static coefficient of friction of the material from which the surface of the roll cylinder is made,
wherein at least one first zone is located proximate but not coextensive with the first edge of the roll cylinder and wherein the first zone begins between the first edge of the roll cylinder and the first end of the paper web and extends beneath the paper web; and
wherein at least one second zone is located proximate but not coextensive with the second edge of the roll cylinder and wherein the second zone begins between the second edge of the roll cylinder and the second end of the paper web and extends beneath the paper web.

2. The core-roll of claim 1 , wherein a paper web wound about the core-roll will remain substantially in-place.

3. The core-roll of claim 1 , wherein the coefficient of friction in the zones is at least twice the coefficient of friction of the material from which the roll cylinder is made.

4. The core-roll of claim 1 , wherein the coefficient of friction in the zones is at least three times the coefficient of friction of the material from which the roll cylinder is made.

5. The core-roll of claim 1 , wherein the zones are created by applying an anti-slip material.

6. The core-roll of claim 5 , wherein the anti-slip material is a chosen from one or more of polyethylenes, ethylene acetates, rubbers, including thermoplastic rubbers, isocyanates, and polyolefins.

7. The core-roll of claim 6 , wherein the anti-slip material does not extend all the way to the outside edges of the core-roll.

8. The core-roll of claim 6 , wherein the anti-slip material does not extend across the center of the core-roll.

9. The core-roll of claim 8 , wherein the anti-slip material is chosen from polyurethane rubbers.

10. The core-roll of claim 5 , wherein the anti-slip material does not extend all the way to the outside edges of the core-roll.

11. The core-roll of claim 5 , wherein the anti-slip material is chosen from polyurethane rubbers.

12. A parent roll for use in the production of paper products comprising:
a core-roll of one or more metals and/or hard polymers and a paper web surrounding the core-roll,
wherein the paper web has two edges and wherein the core-roll comprises at least two zones created by applying an anti-slip material to the surface of the core-roll wherein the zones of anti-slip material are positioned so as to extend beyond the two edges of the paper web thereby minimizing lateral movement of a paper web.

13. The parent roll of claim 12 , wherein the anti-slip material is a chosen from one or more of polyethylenes, ethylene acetates, rubbers, including thermoplastic rubbers, isocyanates, and polyolefins.

14. The parent roll of claim 12 , wherein the paper web surrounding the core-roll remains substantially-in-place.

15. The parent roll of claim 13 , wherein the anti-slip material does not extend across the center of the core-roll.

16. The parent roll of claim 13 , wherein the anti-slip material is chosen from polyurethane rubbers.

17. The parent roll of claim 13 , wherein the anti-slip zones are located on the core-roll where they do not interfere with subsequent converting operations.
