Abstract

An adhesive bonding system joins flat webs when changing rolls of such webs. The adhesive bonding system comprises two adhesive tape boundary edges, and further comprises a top carrier layer and a bottom carrier layer, a flat connecting element that connects the two carrier layers to one another and is suitable for opening the connection under the conditions of a static or flying roll change. At least one of the boundary edges of the connecting element does not extend in a straight line, and a straight-line emphasis line is defined in relation to this boundary edge, the emphasis line of this boundary edge extends along a preferential direction, and this boundary edge has a multiplicity of regions lying on one side of its emphasis line and also a multiplicity of regions lying on the other side of its emphasis line.

First claim

What is claimed is:

1. An adhesive bonding system for joining flat webs when changing rolls of such webs, wherein the adhesive bonding system has a length defined between two adhesive tape boundary edges of the adhesive bonding system, the adhesive bonding system comprising
a top carrier layer and a bottom carrier layer
a flat connecting element, having two boundary edges, that
connects the two carrier layers to one another to form a connection between the two carrier layers,
is adapted to open the connection between the two carrier layers under the conditions of a static or flying roll change, and
has a length defined between the two boundary edges of the connecting element, and

two layers of adhesive, each provided on the surface of each carrier layer that faces away from the connecting element,

wherein,
the connecting element has non-adhesive properties and is not a layer of adhesive,
the connection between the connecting element and at least one of the carrier layers is not brought about by means of further layers of adhesive,
the connecting element comprises a polymer layer that is delaminable from at least one selected from the top carrier layer and the bottom carrier layer,
the polymer layer consists of polymer and, optionally, one or more additives, wherein the polymer is selected from the group consisting of polyvinyl chlorides, polyvinylidene chloride, polyvinyl alcohols, polyvinyl acetates, polyvinylpyrrolidones, and copolymers of vinyl chloride and vinyl acetate, wherein the one or more additives are selected from the group consisting of at least one additive selected from a wetting agent, a defoamer, a plasticizer, and a fungicide, a filler, and
at least one of the boundary edges of the connecting element is non-linear and extends, perpendicularly with respect to the length of the connecting element, in a form of a wave having valleys and crests, wherein the valleys and the crests of the wave are located between the two adhesive tape boundary edges of the adhesive bonding system.

2. The adhesive bonding system according to claim 1 , wherein the connecting element is in a form of a multiplicity of individual elements.

3. The adhesive bonding system according to claim 1 , wherein the form of the wave has a uniform design or a symmetrical design.

4. The adhesive bonding system according to claim 1 , wherein the form of the wave has a non-uniform design or an asymmetrical design.

5. The adhesive bonding system according to claim 1 , wherein the form of the wave has periodically repeating sections.

6. The adhesive bonding system according to claim 1 , wherein a further layer is provided between the polymer layer and the carrier layer from which the polymer layer is delaminable.

7. A method comprising connecting two flat webs, during flying roll change of flat-web material wound up to form rolls, with the adhesive bonding system according to claim 1 .

8. A wound roll of an adhesive tape comprising the adhesive bonding system according to claim 1 .

9. The adhesive bonding system according to claim 1 , wherein the at least one of the boundary edges of the connecting element is recessed by a distance from at least one of the two adhesive tape boundary edges of the adhesive bonding system.

10. The adhesive bonding system according to claim 1 , wherein the polymer of the polymer layer is based on polyvinyl alcohol and at least one additive is present and comprises one or more plasticizers.
