ABSTRACT:
An apparatus is disclosed for transferring a threading tail of a web from a press section to a dryer section of a papermaking machine. The apparatus includes a press roll for releasably supporting the web and a doctor blade which cooperates with the press roll. A tail cutting device is disposed upstream relative to the blade for cutting the tail from the web. A lead-in roll is disposed adjacent to the press roll. The lead-in roll includes a suction tail box which cooperates with the tail. A device moves the lead-in roll from a first to a second location with the first location being in close proximity to the press roll such that when the tail box is connected to a source of vacuum, the tail is drawn away from the press roll onto a dryer felt extending around the lead-in roll. The second location is spaced from the press roll such that an open draw is established between the press roll and the lead-in roll. A tail guide is movable from a first to a second disposition with the first disposition being such that the guide is retracted from contact with the tail. The second disposition is such that the tail guide physically contacts the tail for urging the tail laterally relative to the lead-in roll into engagement with a threading rope system which extends around the lead-in roll.
