CONTINUOUS TAPE-FEEDING APPARATUS AND CONTINUOUS TAPE-FEEDING METHOD

The present disclosure relates to a tape continuous feeding apparatus and a tape continuous feeding method in a process of attaching an insulation tape (hereinafter, a "tape") to an outside of a battery for an electric car, which provide one pair of tape feeding roll portions including a first tape feeding roll portion and a second tape feeding roll portion having the tape wound therearound in a roll type, and automatically and continuously feed the tape wound around the one pair of tape feeding roll portions, and more specifically, in the apparatus continuously feeding a tape by using a tape replacement portion which automatically replaces a tape wound around the first or second tape feeding roll portion with a tape wound around the other tape feeding roll portion standing by to feed, before feeding of the tape is completed and the tape is completely exhausted, the tape replacement portion includes: two adsorption pads which are spaced apart from each other by a predetermined gap on each of an upper portion and a lower portion to fix the tape; one pair of upper and lower connection tape adsorption blocks which are disposed between the two adsorption pads provided on the upper and lower portions, and have a connection tape adsorbed onto a surface thereof to connect the cut tape; and a tape cutting cutter which cuts the tape fixed by the adsorption pads, and accordingly, the tape continuous feeding apparatus and the tape continuous feeding method can feed the tape smoothly and can reduce time required to replace the tape, and can reduce an error on a tape connection portion when the tape of the tape feeding roll portion is replaced.
