PURPOSE: To facilitate the alteration of angle while stabilizing the angle of inclination by a method wherein a circular-arc guide rail is so arranged as to make a silicone roll rotate on the center thereof and then, the angle of inclination at which the roll comes in contact with a body to be transferred is changed centered on the contact surface between the roll and the body to be transferred.
CONSTITUTION: A circular-arc guide rail 1 having the center thereof on the contact surface between a silicone roll 3 and a body 4 to be transferred and a guide roll 2 moving along the rail 1 are linked to the roll 3. Then, a transfer is performed by pressurizing with the roll 3 heated. As the center of the rail 1 forms one point in the surface where the roll 3 contacts the body 4 to be transferred through a transfer foil 8, the force acting when the roll 3 presses the transfer foil 8 on the body 4 to be transferred always pass through the center of the rail 1, hence failing to work in the tangential direction of the rail 1 and is stable. This also facilitates the alteration of the angle of inclination of the roll 3 and the positioning for adjustment.
