Correction Roller

Last crawled date: 1 year, 11 months ago

A remodelling of a well known »Correction Roller« named "Wite-Out Correction Tape". This type has been designed as a "Side Dispenser", for a more ergonomical handling during the correction.

Notes:
The correction tape is modeled as a "dummy" and the guiding of the tape is not optimally modeled, but shows the correct principle of the guiding, as it is in reality.

The friction clutch is realized by a radial friction between the concentrically placed »Supply Reel« and »Take-Up Reel«, with a new designed clutch ring, which has three spring arms. The clutch ring should be made of plastic material (recommended: »POM«).

This types of correction rollers have been improved - again and again - regarding the friction clutch, until today. Whether a best solution has been ever reached, I don't know.

Such a product seems to be a trivial development, but to find a proper solution for the friction clutch is a real challenge up to now.

The continuously changing transmission ratio is the problem, for building loops of the tape and/or -tearing off.
