Patent attributes
Provided are a flat-member-feeding device with which it is possible to reduce power consumption and quickly supply a flat member, and a method for manufacturing the flat-member-feeding device. A method for attaching a motor for rotating a downstream roll to a flat-member-feeding device, the motor being provided with a hollow and substantially cylindrical stator and a hollow and substantially cylindrical rotor that is disposed in the space within the stator, includes: a step for disposing a sleeve so as to occupy part of the space inside the rotor, and mounting the sleeve on the rotor such that one end of the rotor is supported by one end of the sleeve and the other end of the rotor is supported by the other end of the sleeve; and a step for mounting the sleeve on a downstream roll shaft to which the downstream roll is fixed, and attaching the motor to the flat-member-feeding device.
