ABSTRACT:
An autotaper for use in dispensing, cutting and locating tape. The autotaper is comprised of a base having a sliding mount attached to the base and disposed at an angle to the direction in which the tape is dispensed and a device for translating and positioning the sliding mount to a predetermined location on the base; and a feedhead attached to the sliding mount, having a rotatable shaft, a first feed roller mounted to the shaft in a manner that causes the first feed roller to rotate with the shaft when the shaft is rotated in a first direction and not to rotate with the shaft when the shaft is rotated in a second direction, a second feed roller rotatably attached to the feedhead that is in frictional contact with the first feed roller such that the second feed roller rotates in conjunction with the first feed roller, a device for cutting the tape, a linkage assembly attached to the shaft such that the linkage assembly rotates with the shaft when the shaft is rotated in a second direction to activate the cutting device and not to rotate or activate the cutting device when the shaft is rotated in a first direction, and a device for rotating the shaft for a predetermined amount in either the first or second directions.
