SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR ALIGNING MATERIAL ONTO A GUIDE ROLL
First Claim
1. A variable acoustic absorption banner roller system, comprising:
- a frame assembly having a first end and a second end, and a top end and a bottom end;
a guide roller for storing a multi-panel fabric banner, the guide roller located toward the top end of the frame assembly, and being rotatably attached to, and extending from the first end to the second end of, the frame assembly;
alignment rollers for aligning the multi-panel fabric banner during deployment and furling, the alignment rollers being rotatably attached to, and extending in a parallel plane from, the first end to the second end of, the frame assembly, and positioned at a location spaced below an axis of elongation of the guide roller; and
a closure panel assembly having a bottom roller for rotatably engaging the multi-panel fabric banner during deployment and furling.
