Zusammenfassung: | An apparatus is provided for applying a covering film to a book. The apparatus has a gate mechanism having open and closed states, which in the closed state presents a front surface against which a covering film may be overlaid. The spine of a book is pressed onto the covering film overlaying the front surface. The gate is then opened to admit the book to a space rearward of the gate beyond the front surface, such that the book draws the covering film into that space. A laminating mechanism is positioned rearwardly of the gate top receive the book and laminate the film against the front and rear covers to cover the book with the film. |
