No: 17/084025 Application Filed: October 29, 2020 Assignees: JJS APPLICATION TECHNOLOGIES LTD. (Coventry, GB) Claim: 1. An adhesive tape dispenser head assembly arranged to dispense pieces of adhesive tape onto an object, the assembly comprising: a feed spool arranged to hold adhesive tape; and a tape launching cutter movable between a first configuration in which the tape launching cutter is arranged to launch the adhesive tape onto a moving object and a second configuration in which the tape launching cutter is arranged to cut the tape to a desired length, wherein the tape launching cutter is movable to a fourth configuration in which a holding portion of the tape launching cutter is arranged to hold a remaining portion of tape fed from the spool after a piece of tape has been cut from it, and prior to a subsequent launch of the tape, and wherein the tape launching cutter is arranged to move in sequence from the second configuration to the fourth configuration. Claim: 2. The adhesive tape dispenser head assembly of claim 1 , wherein the tape launching cutter comprises a first cutting member and a second cutting member, and wherein one or both of the first cutting member and the second cutting member are movable and are arranged to cooperatively cut the tape during the cutting operation. Claim: 3. The adhesive tape dispenser head assembly of claim 2 , wherein the first cutting member is arranged to cut the tape from a first side of the tape, and the second cutting member is arranged to cut the tape from a second, opposite side of the tape. Claim: 4. The adhesive tape dispenser head assembly of claim 2 , wherein: the first cutting member comprises a first cutting surface and the second cutting member comprises a second cutting surface; or one of the first cutting member and the second cutting member comprises a cutting surface and the other of the first cutting member and the second cutting member comprises a counterpart cutting base. Claim: 5. The adhesive tape dispenser head assembly of claim 1 , wherein the tape has two sides and the tape launching cutter is arranged to engage the tape from both sides during the launch operation, the cutting operation, or both. Claim: 6. The adhesive tape dispenser head assembly of claim 1 , wherein the tape launching cutter includes a servomotor, and the servomotor is arranged to receive instructions from a controller arranged to control operation of the tape launching cutter. Claim: 7. The adhesive tape dispenser head assembly of claim 6 , wherein the controller is arranged to control operation of the tape launching cutter based on either or both of: object speed information relating to the relative speed of the object compared to the dispenser head assembly; and presence information relating to detection of the presence of the object at a first location or position information relating to the relative position of the object compared to the dispenser head assembly. Claim: 8. The adhesive tape dispenser head assembly of claim 1 , further comprising a press roller located at or near to the location of initial contact between the adhesive tape and the object. Claim: 9. The adhesive tape dispenser head assembly of claim 1 , wherein the adhesive tape is provided on a backing liner layer, the feed spool is arranged to hold the adhesive tape and the backing liner layer, and the adhesive tape dispenser head assembly further comprises a take-up spool arranged to collect the backing liner layer. Claim: 10. The adhesive tape dispenser head assembly of claim 1 , wherein the tape launching cutter is arranged to carry out the tape launching operation upstream of the tape cutting operation. Claim: 11. A tape application machine comprising an adhesive tape dispenser head assembly according to claim 1 , and a relative movement mechanism arranged to provide movement between the object and the dispenser head assembly, wherein the adhesive tape dispenser head assembly is arranged to dispense pieces of adhesive tape onto the object. Claim: 12. An adhesive tape dispenser head assembly arranged to dispense pieces of adhesive tape onto an object, the assembly comprising: a feed spool arranged to hold adhesive tape; and a tape launching cutter movable between a first configuration in which the tape launching cutter is arranged to launch the adhesive tape onto a moving object and a second configuration in which the tape launching cutter is arranged to cut the tape to a desired length, wherein the tape launching cutter comprises a pair of rotating rollers comprising a launch portion arranged to grip and move the tape to launch the tape, and a cutting portion having a cutting surface arranged to cut the tape, and wherein the rollers are arranged to rotate between the first and second configurations. Claim: 13. An adhesive tape dispenser head assembly arranged to dispense pieces of adhesive tape onto an object, the assembly comprising: a feed spool arranged to hold adhesive tape; and a tape launching cutter movable between a first configuration in which the tape launching cutter is arranged to launch the adhesive tape onto a moving object and a second configuration in which the tape launching cutter is arranged to cut the tape to a desired length, wherein the tape launching cutter comprises: a pair of first rotating rollers comprising a launch portion arranged to grip and move the tape to launch the tape, wherein the tape launching cutter is formed by a coordinated launcher and cutter coordinated by a controller, the launcher comprising a movable clamp arrangement having a pair of linearly movable clamp members arranged to launch the adhesive tape.
