This brass belt pasta roller dates back to the 1960s and is of Italian manufacture. This device was commonly used for the passage of the roller shutter belt, performing an essential function in the opening and closing system of roller shutters.
### Detailed Description:
The roller is a small brass rectangle measuring 5cm by 6cm, made with care and attention to detail. It is in perfect condition, with a shine that reflects the quality of the material used and the attention to maintenance.
### Operation:
1. **Mounting**: The roller was mounted on the upper or lower part of the window or door frame, where the belt that connected the roller shutter to the winding mechanism passed.
2. **Shutter Belt**: The belt, a sturdy webbing of durable material, passed through the roller. The roller had a rounded shape that allowed the belt to slide smoothly, reducing friction and preventing premature wear of the fabric.
3. **Shutter Movement**: When you pulled or released the belt, the roller helped guide the movement of the shutter, ensuring it raised or lowered smoothly. The roller ensured that the belt remained correctly aligned, preventing it from bending or binding.
4. **Simplicity and Efficiency**: This small device was essential for the proper functioning of the shutters. Its simple, yet robust structure ensured long life and reliable operation over time.
