Abstract

An automatic tape affixing apparatus includes a tape affixing head movable in X-axis, Y-axis, Z-axis, A-axis and C-axis directions; a tape presser roller having a plurality of roller members disposed widthwise; a roller supporting shaft for supporting the roller members in such a way that the roller members are rotatable and vertically movable independently of one another; first cylinder means including a plurality of cylinders for providing pressing force to the respective roller members through bearings so that the roller members are pressed against an adhesion form; a roller carrying member supported movably in a vertical direction by said tape affixing head for supporting the first cylinder means and said roller supporting shaft; and second cylinder means supported by the tape affixing head for providing pressing force to the roller carrying member, whereby, a tape can be affixed on a curved surface of the adhesion form by vertically moving roller members independently of one another, and also an end portion of the tape having an end edge inclined to the tape affixing direction can be effectively and assuredly affixed by moving only required roller members in the vertical direction.
