Abstract:
A veneer reeling apparatus at least comprising:a take-up reel that is rotatably supported at a veneer sheet winding position; a winding guide member arranged in an opposite manner to the circumferential surface of the take-up reel in plural rows with arbitrary spatial intervals along a shaft direction of the take-up reel; rotation transmitting means that imparts rotation to the winding guide member in order to wind a veneer sheet on the take-up reel; following means that forces the winding guide member to run along part of the circumferential surface of the take-up reel in conformity with the curvature of thereof; a transport conveyor that transports a veneer sheet into between the take-up reel and the winding guide member in cooperation with the winding guide member below the take-up reel; and firmly stretching means that imparts a tension to the winding guide member in order of wind a veneer sheet on the take-up reel, and wherein the firmly stretching means is rotary pulleys that are separately provided in order to individually push or pull endless bands in plural rows constituting the winding guide member under a pressure while guaranteeing a rotation force of the winding guide member when the winding guide member is pressed in conformity with the curvature of part of the circumferential surface of the take-up reel, wherein the firmly stretching means can individually displace press positions of the endless bands on the take-up reel as a diameter of a veneer roll produced by winding a veneer sheet on the take-up reel increases while maintaining the winding guide member in a firmly stretching condition under a constant tension.
